Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 594

This memory felt somewhat distant, and Pearl had to wrack her brain to remember it.

About eight years ago, when she was around fifteen, she took a bus from Lynxville to Enswood, which was quite a distance. Back then, she was a moderately skilled but slender girl who kept to herself at school.

She excelled in her studies, which made her a target for bullies. The principal's daughter took advantage of the situation and got her expelled. Left with no other options, she had to use some of her father's inheritance to prepare for studying abroad.

During her journey, she had to switch buses somewhere near the border between Lynxville and Enswood, requiring a bit of walking. During this walk, she came across a group of people surrounding a chubby little boy who appeared plump but cute.

As a former victim of bullying herself, witnessing this scene ignited her anger. Luckily, only a few boys were among the bullies, while most were haughty teenage girls. She quickly knocked down one of the boys and shielded the little boy behind her.

"If anyone wants to bully him again, you'll have to go through me first."

The boy, who had been knocked down, cried out in pain.

Seeing this, the others didn't dare to say anything and ran away. Some of the timid girls even cried.

"If any of you dare to bully him again, I won't hold back."

This statement scared the group of kids, as they couldn't understand how a seemingly younger, slim girl like her had such strength and skills. But to avoid getting beaten up, they fled and didn't dare look back.

Though she found it hard to believe, Hugo's bewildered response made it seem like an undeniable truth. Moreover, she didn't expect that the chubby little boy who had cried while being pinned down back then had grown into a handsome young man.

But his personality… Could it have been influenced by the bullying he endured in his early years? This thought stirred a blend of sympathy and regret in Pearl.

Hugo took a while to respond. "Impossible! It couldn't have been you! How is that even possible?"

The person who had saved him back then was clearly Jenny! It had been Jenny who had bravely stepped in and rescued him. How could it suddenly become Pearl?
