Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 587

"I don't know the reason for now, but I'm sure it was her."

Pearl felt conflicted. "She didn't look like a bad person so how could she do that?"

"It's hard to read people's minds. You've learned that by now," Damian replied, lying on his bed and staring at the ceiling while deep in thought. "I'll investigate and find a weak spot to get you out of here."

"Don't joke around. Even if you could escape, there's no way I could. The old man won't release me." Her room was constantly guarded. Not even a fly could sneak past them.

"Tell me, who does the old man intend to marry you off to? Why does he hate Richard so much?" Damian was surprised.

Damian's jaw dropped after hearing that, and he nearly tumbled out of bed. "You have a dark past. Tsk, tsk. No wonder he refuses to let you marry Richard. I wouldn't either."

"Enough of that. I'm going to speak to Wayne and have him find a way to get me out of here. I also want to discover who I'm supposed to marry." Pearl glared and didn't want to talk to him anymore.

Pearl chuckled at his narcissism but then froze. It was true, so who could it be? Before she could ponder this further, Damian had already fallen asleep.

That was fast…

That was outrageous. Everyone in the Cooper family was aware of her engagement to Richard. Has Reese lost his mind?

"Is it Drew?" Drew had never displayed any unusual interest in her and was engaged himself. Who else could it be?

"Sean."

Pearl felt like the world was crumbling around her, and her smile froze. "Sean? That evil man? Why would he want to marry me? He hates me!"

"Calm down, Pea. He might want to compete against Richard and—"
