Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 578

He wanted to shake Pearl out of her current state—she looked like a walking corpse. But physical violence was not the answer. He needed to find a way to talk some sense into her and help her change her mind.

Pearl, though stubborn, seemed to be showing a glimmer of acceptance. "I know, I know," she nodded as she looked up at Damian, her eyes reflecting a mixture of a smile and resignation. "Let's go, Damian."

Damian wasn't expecting her reaction, so he simply replied, "Oh."

Pearl continued, "Let's leave Enswood. It doesn't matter where we go. I just don't want to be here anymore." Staying in a place that brought her so much sadness seemed pointless.

"Alright," Damian agreed, relieved that Pearl was willing to leave, even if he knew she hadn't entirely let go of Richard. "Where would you like to go? Hazelton? Or Bodgow? Or maybe you'd prefer to go abroad?"

Pearl considered her options for a moment before deciding, "Bodgow." Esther and Clem were both there. Maybe seeing them would make her feel better.

Damian, sensing her unspoken reasons, didn't question her choice. "Alright, I'll book the tickets. We'll leave this afternoon."

At three-thirty that afternoon, Pearl was ready to depart for the airport.

Realizing that she might not return for a long time, she summarized the recent events for Dustan and Susan, who were saddened by the outcome. They understood that it was Richard's coldness that had caused this situation, but they still tried to talk her out of it. Eventually, they realized Pearl wasn't going to change her mind, so they dropped it.

Standing at the airport gate, Pearl's eyes had a glimmer of hope. She glanced at her reflection in the glass doors, and for a moment, she thought she saw someone familiar.

With a happy expression, she turned around, only to be disappointed when she realized it wasn't Richard.

As they walked, Pearl couldn't help but glance back one last time, her eyes filled with longing.

"Stop looking back," Damian advised. "I heard Richard is happily shopping around with Jenny so don't expect him to show up."

Pearl's hopeful eyes dulled, and she glared at Damian before stepping through the boarding gate.

Damian smirked, knowing he had lied, and followed her inside.

After they went in, a man sitting behind them raised his eyes slowly, revealing a deep coldness in his gaze.
