Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 758

Pearl left the hospital and hailed a taxi. She gave the driver Esther's address and, after a half-hour ride, they arrived at their destination.

Pearl paid the fare, stepped out of the cab, and made her way to the entrance. However, a security guard stopped her in her tracks.

"Please show me your ID," he demanded.

"I'm a friend of the resident here. She invited me over," Pearl explained.

"You say you're her friend. Do you have any evidence? If not, please leave now." The security guard appeared skeptical, unsure if Pearl's claim was legitimate or if she might be an overzealous fan trying to sneak in.

"I can call her to confirm," Pearl suggested, reaching for her phone.

The security guard, somewhat reluctantly, agreed to this proposal.

Pearl attempted to call Esther, but there was no answer after three consecutive calls.

"Alright, ma'am, you'll have to leave if you can't provide any evidence," the security guard said impatiently, keen to resume his duties.

As Pearl turned away, she accidentally bumped into someone's chest. She winced and touched her nose.

"Hey, were you not looking where you were going?" she said. If her nose got deformed from the bump, it would be very ugly.

Richard, the person she had collided with, didn't seem to feel any pain. He responded calmly, "Weren't you watching where you were walking?"

Pearl recognized Richard's voice and was annoyed by his presence. "You saw me but chose to walk into me, Mister Richard. You're the one who's blind here."

Despite her sarcastic remark, Richard maintained his composure and remained unfazed. "Step aside."

"I'm here to visit my friend," Pearl replied promptly.

"Esther?"

"Yeah, Esther." Stunned, Pearl wondered why he knew.

Suddenly, Richard fell silent. After a long pause, he finally spoke. "Go ahead."

Naturally, the security guard allowed Pearl to enter the premises after Richard had said so.

Pearl brightened up and expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, Mister Richard."

She then disregarded Richard, the very person who had helped her, and made her way inside.
