Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 573

It didn't matter if Reese had the best temper; his expression changed when Sean refused to change his last name.

"But you're my son. Shouldn't you have my last name?" He couldn't easily accept the fact that his son carried a different last name. He would have been fine if Sean had simply lied and promised to change it later.

Sean remained firm, albeit with a tinge of guilt. "The Waldorfs raised me and have done so much for me. I can't change my last name."

Pearl empathized with Sean's sentiment because she wouldn't want to go back to the Jordans for the same reason. She sighed and tried to console Reese. "It's okay, Godfather. Sean's mindset shows he's a good son who values those who have supported him."

Reese's expression changed once more, and he sighed again. "Alright, if you insist, I won't dwell on this." He still had another son, Drew, who could carry on the family name. "But you must officially return to our family. I'll organize a party in Enswood to announce that you're my son."

That seemed like the least he could do.

Sean initially wanted to decline but remembered the importance of maintaining this identity, so he reluctantly agreed.

Drew remained at home while Sean and Pearl returned to Waldorf Residence.

Richard had made a significant recovery and moved back home. Pearl unexpectedly ran into him as he returned from the meeting.

They were supposed to be a loving couple, yet now there was an undeniable awkwardness between them. They exchanged glances but remained silent.

"Richard…" Pearl finally managed to speak his name.

Richard just looked at her coldly, offering no response or indication of acknowledgment.

Pearl's smile waned, and she spoke with a tinge of sadness. "Richard, if you no longer have feelings for me, why don't we just break up?"

After Dustan discovered that Sean wasn't his biological son, he spent several days heartbroken, and Susan cried her heart out as well. However, since Sean wasn't a Waldorf, it was understandable for him to return to his own family. They were sad but didn't stand in his way.

The Coopers had a thriving family business and invited many influential people. The entire Waldorf family, including Pearl, received invitations.

Pearl had initially intended to attend with Richard, but given their strained communication, it felt awkward to spend time together. So, she drove herself to the event.

Richard hesitated but ultimately didn't stop her. However, things didn't go as planned. Pearl's car suddenly ran out of gas and stopped on the side of the road.

"Why did it have to run out of gas now?"

She slapped her forehead and was ready to call a tow truck when a clear voice came from behind her.
