Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 290

Following that, Pearl cast a regretful expression in Blake's direction, though it was purely an act.

The butler pleaded, "Mister Blake, please don't make this difficult for me. It's Master Jordan's order, and I wouldn't want to face the consequences of failing to fulfill it."

Despite his impatience, Blake reluctantly nodded. "Fine."

Curious, Pearl wanted to see how Blake would react. "What's the plan, Mister Blake? How are you going to convince me?"

"I'm not going to persuade you. Just come with me."

Pearl clicked her tongue. "Is that your idea of begging?"

"I'm not begging you, Pearl!" Blake was almost driven mad, unable to comprehend why he had encountered such an eloquent woman.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Why are you in such a rush to take me back?" Pearl dropped her smile and grew genuinely curious.

Blake pinched the bridge of his nose, battling a headache. "Grandfather wants to see you."

"Is that all?"

Blake dwelled on it carefully. "He also wants to reunite with you and have you change your last name to Jordan. You'll become a Jordan." He then stared at Pearl with disgust. "I don't understand what he sees in you. He even mentioned that you're young and capable, saying it's no wonder you're a Jordan."

Pearl responded with a smile, "Well, he's flattered me, but he does have keen insight. He's not as condescending as some people."

Disgusted by her comparison, Blake glared at her. "So, what's your decision?"

Furthermore, he understood that to achieve their goal, they needed to strike where it hurt most. Since the Waldorfs held a special place in Pearl's heart, using them as leverage could be quite effective.

As expected, Pearl's expression darkened. "Are you threatening me?"

"No, I wouldn't dare. I'm merely hoping you'll see reason. After all, you're well aware of the Jordan family's influence. It would be easy for us to do something to the Waldorfs, and no one would be able to trace it back to us." Even if someone were to uncover their involvement, they would likely refrain from blaming the Jordans to avoid conflict.

Clenching her fists under the table, Pearl took a deep breath and reluctantly said, "Fine, I'll go with you." She could ensure her own safety, but she couldn't risk the Waldorfs' well-being.

Moreover, having investigated the Jordans, she understood their power and couldn't take any chances when it came to the Waldorfs. She decided to resume her quest for answers regarding her mother's disappearance after returning from the Jordans.

"I knew you were smart, Miss Pearl."
