Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 466

Ada started crying and tried to play the victim. "I'm so sorry, Miss Pearl. I wasn't thinking straight. I just wanted everyone to help me search for the bracelet, and that's why I said those things. I wanted people to pay attention to me, but I truly didn't mean to lie."

Her lie was outrageous, and her explanation didn't make her situation any better. If Pearl were to report this to her father, given his short temper, he might lock her up and prevent her from pursuing an acting career.

"Why didn't you just say that instead of trying to play mind games?" Pearl raised an eyebrow, glaring at Ada. "Do you realize who you're dealing with? I can dig out every detail about your family history."

Ada began to cry even harder, and the coldness in Pearl's eyes made her afraid. "I... I..."

"I might consider allowing you to remain a part of the cast," Pearl said nonchalantly, blowing on her nails.

"Alright, I'll confess. I was envious of your beauty and wealth, and the fact that you're with Richard, so I resorted to such low tactics—cutting up your costume and stealing your clothes. I wanted you to feel humiliated... I'm sorry. I know it's my fault, and I shouldn't have done it." Ada was indeed envious of Pearl. The latter excelled in everything, even her luck, and anyone would feel jealous.

"You knew what you were doing was wrong, but you did it out of jealousy, right?" Pearl questioned.

Ada froze, unsure of how to respond.

"Well, since you're so envious, I'll have the director arrange a scene where you're incredibly jealous of me. How does that sound?" Pearl's tone was ironic.

Ada shook her head vigorously. "No, Miss Pearl. I won't do this again!"

"It's great that you've seen the error of your ways," Pearl said, smiling but with a harsh tone. "Since you've apologized, you should write an apology of about... ten thousand words. Come back when you're done."

After all, Ada was just a side character. It was better to offend her than Pearl.

Ada couldn't hold back her tears and ran away crying.

"Pearl, she apologized, so why did you still send her away?"
