Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 590

"Gigi, did you give the necklaces I asked you to?" Pearl inquired, her eyes fixed on the girl.

Gigi, taken aback by Pearl's sudden appearance, was flustered and couldn't muster a lie. She stuttered nervously, "I... I forgot."

Pearl's gaze bore into her. How could she have forgotten something so important?

"Take me to see her now and give the necklaces back to me."

Gigi panicked. "Aren't you getting married? Why are you here?"

Noticing that Gigi evaded her question, Pearl suspected something else. "Did you intentionally not give the necklaces?"

Gigi shook her head hard. "No, I really forgot."

"Surely, you must remember where you kept them, right?"

Gigi paused and realized that she had kept the necklaces in her clothes. However, two days had passed, and she couldn't find them anymore. She had assumed that it didn't matter since she believed Pearl would never return. Now, her assumptions had been proven wrong.

"I lost them," Gigi admitted. It was the truth—she really had no idea where they were.

Pearl's heart ached as those necklaces held great sentimental value to her, given that they were her father's legacy and a keepsake from her mother.

"Take me to see my mom then."

Gigi's heart raced as she hesitated. "I..."

Her hands worked quicker than her mind. Pearl approached the frail-looking woman and pulled her into a tight embrace.

Beah was very excited and said in a hushed tone, "Don't come too close, I don't want to infect you."

"I'm not afraid of this." Pearl held her even tighter and sobbed. "I've been searching for you for so long, but you were here all along. Why wouldn't you see me?"

Beah sighed. "My dear child, it's not that I don't want to. I just didn't dare."

Pearl was curious. "Why not?"

"Because I'm just a puppet in this place," Beah replied with a sad smile. "I've always kept your existence hidden from your grandfather. He didn't know about you, so even when I secretly visited you, I could only watch from afar."
