Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 421

Dustan appeared to have changed his mind about Jenny, and he looked at Pearl with a guilty expression. "I'm sorry, Pearl, I—"

"It's fine, Mister Dustan. I understand that you just wanted to save your wife."

Touched by Pearl's understanding, Dustan's eyes welled up with emotion. He had almost lost such a good daughter-in-law.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Jenny seemed oblivious.

Pearl addressed Jenny directly, explaining the situation, "You know Master Jordan agreed to help you get Richard, but you don't know he kidnapped Aunt Susan to force Richard to compromise. Jenny, this has been a one-sided thing. So now that the truth is out, have you awakened from your dream?"

Jenny turned to Richard in disbelief, seeing the loving way he looked at Pearl. Her heart shattered into pieces.

Dustan tried to advise her. "Jenny, I know you like Richard, but Richard and Pea are meant for each other. Even if you had a past with him, that time has long passed. You should move on."

"I don't believe any of this!" Jenny broke down and stumbled. "Mister Dustan, you like me more, right? Why would you have treated me so nicely otherwise?"

"Jenny, you may be naive, but you should know shame. Can't you see why he's nice to you?" Pearl responded bluntly, not mincing her words.

Jenny lost control of her emotions and bawled. "Rick. I love you. How could you—"

Feeling flustered by her tears, Richard said, "Stop crying. It's embarrassing."

'Embarrassing…' Jenny stared at him in disbelief, feeling that this man before her was a stranger. She could never have imagined Richard speaking to her in such a manner, let alone shaming her in front of so many people.

"Ahem…"

They both suddenly realized Dustan was still present and felt a bit awkward.

"It's normal for you to be so lovey-dovey, so you don't really have to pay attention to me. Pretend I'm not even here." Dustan realized he was unintentionally third-wheeling and offered an awkward smile.

"Don't get ahead of yourself, Dad. How's Mom?" Richard asked with genuine concern, as he always kept his mother in his thoughts. Despite Dustan's assurances, he remained worried about her.

"She's upstairs. Let's go see her," Dustan replied, leading the way.
