Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 357

"I had good intentions. Besides, you're an outsider too, Pearl..." Jenny said, her head hung in a guise of grievance.

"She's my fiancee. How can you even compare to her?" Richard's statement silenced everyone.

Jenny was the one hurt the most by his words, and she cried as if she had been wronged. "Rick, our feelings for each other in the past were genuine, even if you dislike me now. Why are you being so cruel to me?"

Pearl couldn't resist making sarcastic comments about Jenny's behavior. "Miss Jenny, you're talking about past feelings in front of his girlfriend. Why don't you explain the reason behind his cruelty?"

Of course, Richard was visibly disgusted.

"I..." Jenny looked down, hiding the hatred in her eyes.

Hugo stepped forward as a peacemaker. "Let's put the past behind us. After all, Richard and Pearl are a couple now. I'm sure Jen wishes them well too."

Jenny nodded with gratitude.

Hugo continued, "Dad's birthday party is coming up in a few days. I plan to go home and celebrate with him."

Mobius clenched his fists. "Go home? How dare you even think of it, Hugo? You angered Dad so much the other day, and I haven't held you accountable for that. You have the audacity to come back to us!"

Sean gave Hugo a cold glance and remarked, "Stop bothering with such a shameless person. I don't even know what he's up to."

It appeared that the Waldorfs had long considered Hugo an eyesore.

However, Hugo paid no attention to their comments, and he departed with a gentle and composed smile. "Well, it's settled then. I'll be on my way. See you the day after tomorrow."

After that, he got up to leave.

The atmosphere among the other Waldorfs improved once he was gone.

Richard wiped his mouth and calmly replied, "No." His response was a clear show of support for Pearl.

Enraged, Jenny stood up and sobbed. "If you all hate me this much, then I'll leave."

Slowly, Pearl answered, "It's good that you're aware of that, but it's a little too late."

As Jenny took her first step towards leaving, she slipped and fell in Richard's direction.

Despite his dislike for her, Richard couldn't ignore her falling and moved to help her…

Bang!

Quick as lightning, Pearl reached out and prevented Jenny from hitting the floor face-first.
