Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 574

"What's going on?"

Pearl found herself face to face with the person she least wanted to meet at the worst possible moment—Richard.

She looked at him standing before her and offered an awkward smile. "Nothing much. My car just ran out of gas. I've called for a tow truck, and I'll grab a cab later."

Richard frowned and said, "Do you need a ride?"

In the past, he would have insisted on taking her with him, but now he had to politely offer assistance.

Pearl shook her head. "No, I can manage."

Richard suddenly got excited. "Didn't you say I'm your boyfriend? Shouldn't I help if that's the case?" Although he was reluctant to acknowledge their relationship status, he still held the title, so he felt obligated to do his best.

Pearl couldn't help but feel the irony. He was offering help because of their relationship status, not because of his love for her.

Taking a deep breath, she replied, "It's fine. I can deal with this."

Richard looked at her intently. "Alright, I'm heading off then."

Pearl watched as he drove away and felt a sense of sadness welling up inside her.

"Why are you standing here?"

Another familiar voice interrupted her thoughts.

It was easy to recognize Richard by his tall, straight posture. The person he was speaking to was Jenny!

Pearl's heart seemed to stop.

Damian leaned against the car, crossing his arms and watching the two engage in a seemingly cheerful conversation that appeared somewhat scandalous. He couldn't help but smirk. "If I recall correctly, Jenny is Richard's ex, isn't she?"

Pearl nodded.

"It looks like your boyfriend is falling for someone else." He pointed at the two of them chatting animatedly.

Pearl forced a sad smile, her heart aching at the sight.
