Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 414

"I contacted her first, and she told me that you've locked Pearl up here. She then asked me to come and save her quickly," Richard explained, his eyes filled with icy determination. "Your beloved doesn't even want you to do such a crazy thing. Don't you understand that now?"

"Some people want to make use of her kindness, which is selfish," Raymond retorted, glaring at Richard.

Angela, on the verge of tears, interjected, "I know you did it for me, Ray, but I don't want this."

Raymond persisted, "Stop talking. You're going to live like a normal person soon." His eyes were filled with adoration, but Angela remained resolute.

"No, I don't want to!"

For the first time, Angela openly shared her innermost thoughts. Over the years, she had always obeyed Raymond to avoid causing him any worries. But she couldn't condone this illegal action.

"You'll only make me sad by doing this. Even if I can live like an ordinary person in the future, I can never live with peace of mind," Angela pleaded.

"Angela..." Raymond's smile wavered, his eyes welling up with tears.

"Stop, Raymond. It's more than enough if you love me for the rest of my life."

Angela wasn't used to speaking so much in one go, which left her legs feeling weak, causing her to fall to her knees. Despite the pain from the fall, she continued to plead earnestly with Raymond.

This heartfelt plea left Raymond with complex emotions and a deep sense of disappointment, knowing that he could no longer go through with his plan.

"I can save her," Pearl suddenly broke her silence, capturing their attention.

"You're saying that you can save Angela? Is it true?" Raymond's eyes sparkled with hope.

"Yes, I learned all of Simon's medical skills, and I can try my best to save her. Plus, I can save her as long as you get what I want," Pearl asserted.

"Of course," Raymond replied with trembling excitement, momentarily forgetting that Pearl was Simon's protege.

Pearl rolled her eyes at him, exasperated. "Yes, I promised you, but not right now. You've locked me up for seven days. Can't I take a break?"

Awkward, Raymond was struck speechless. Meanwhile, Angela smiled and nodded. "It's okay, Pearl. Rest well."

Pearl sighed softly at the sight of Angela's pale face. "Don't worry. I'm sure I'm more reliable than Raymond."

Raymond's face drained of color, leaving him at a loss for words.

Amused by the situation, Angela said, "You're the first one to say that. You're quite funny. No wonder someone as aloof as Mister Richard would fall in love with you. If I were a man, you might have bewitched me."

"No, I doubt it. She's too scheming. I prefer a kind and naive girl like you."

Richard tightened his grip around Pearl's waist and cast a knowing look at Raymond. "You don't have a chance either way. After all, you failed to make a good impression on her during your time together for half a month."
