Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 35

Abby's sincerity convinced Richard that she was telling the truth. He nodded and entered the hall with her.

Their appearance instantly attracted the attention of the reporters by the door. The reporters started snapping lots of pictures of the. Abby leaned close to Richard to give others the wrong impression of their closeness. Suddenly, she staggered and fell forward but Richard managed to grab her waist in time.

Of course, this was precisely what the reporters yearned to see, and they took even more photos of the pair. They even came up with the headline for tomorrow’s news.

[Upcoming marriage between Flores Firms and Waldorf Enterprises! The couple is so lovey-dovey!]

Blushing, Abby thanked Richard.

"Let’s head inside."

Richard withdrew his hand and strode ahead into the hall, putting a damper on Abby’s excitement. She bit her lip and followed after him to avoid awkwardness.

After a while, another commotion started at the door, and it was no less than the one caused by Richard and Abby. Baffled, Richard quietly watched the two people who entered/ They were Sean, who had on a bright smile, and...Pearl?

She was wearing a short black dress, looking charming and sexy. Richard started coldly at her. The dress he had bought her was a long white strapless dress. He concluded that she must hate him to the core to stand him up and come to the party with Sean instead.

The keen Sean caught sight of Richard, and his smile became even brighter. "You guys got here early."

Abby froze when she saw Pearl standing there safe and sound in a new dress. She had ruined Pearl's dress, cut Pearl’s phone charger, and destroyed the lock on the washroom door. How did Pearl get out?

Pearl sneered at Abby’s expression. "You look surprised to see me, Abby."

Abby snapped back to reality and shook her head. "Umm, I’m just surprised to see you and Sean come here together."

Pearl glanced at Sean and chuckled. "Well, I have to hand it to Mister Sean. He came to my rescue just in time. Otherwise, I’d still be locked in the washroom. Someone messed up the lock on the door and ruined the dress I was going to wear. What do you think about that, Abby?"

Abby gripped her clothes tightly. "Why are you asking me? I didn't do it."

"I didn't say that. Why are you so nervous? Did you actually do it?"

Pearl's interrogation made it hard for Abby to defend herself.

Richard spoke up to get Abby out of the predicament. "Okay, the party's about to start. Stop fussing." His interruption earned him a glare from Pearl.

"Yeah, the party's about to start. Pea, may I have the honor of having your first dance?" Sean extended his hand and bowed to Pearl.

Pearl nodded as she smiled. "Of course, I’d be honored.

Sean and Pearl danced together wonderfully, making others pale in comparison. People were amazed by the lovely couple.

Richard found their dance unsightly as he felt that they were unsuited for each other.

Eagerly, Abby asked Richard, "Should we dance too?"
