Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 479

Chapter 479

Hanzel recognized the familiar face and was ready to greet her with a smile. However, his expression froze when

he saw the platinum card she was holding.

He remembered the card; it was always in Pearl’s purse, and she never used it. Why would this woman have it? The

keys she held were also identical to the ones Richard had. How did she get them? Was she… a thief?

Hanzel walked over, grabbed Feather’s wrist, and anxiously said, “Feather, why are you stealing? If you need

money, you can tell me, and I can lend it to you. Return these things, or you might get caught and sent to jail.” He

was genuinely worried about her and started to

sweat.

Feather recognized him and found his reaction amusing and confusing. “Why would I tell if I needed money?”

Hanzel couldn’t explain why he said that either, so he froze. “But you shouldn’t steal, especially from my brother

and sister-in-law-”

“I didn’t steal.” Her expression changed. She had heard that Hanzel was a very smart man who could remember all

his lines perfectly, but now it didn’t seem that way.

“I really didn’t, let go!” Feather struggled, but Hanzel’s grip was too tight for her to move.

In an attempt to free herself, she kicked him, and to avoid her attack, Hanzel released her. Her hand was fair and

“Don’t touch me.” Feather had been trained to fight and could easily overpower him, but he was Richard’s brother

and Pearl’s friend, so she refrained from any aggressive action.

Seeing that there was no other way to communicate with her, Hanzel hugged her tightly. ” Alright, listen. I’m only

“Don’t touch me. I won’t.”

Hanzel was at a loss for what to do, so he decided to carry her instead.

Feather was suddenly lifted off the ground and reacted by slapping him hard. It was her first time being hugged by

a man in her eighteen years of life, and it was quite an unbelievable experience.

Hanzel carried her all the way into Pearl’s room. Pearl had been conversing with Richard, and when she saw Hanzel

enter the room with Feather in his arms, Pearl’s jaw dropped in

astonishment.

“You’re moving quickly,” Pearl teased.

Hanzel realized that what he was doing seemed wrong, so he put Feather down and locked the door to prevent her

from running away. “No, she stole something.”

Pearl was shocked because she knew Feather well and was sure she wouldn’t steal anything. It seemed like there

was a misunderstanding.

“That’s not what you said. I thought you came here to tell me you’re getting married, Richard remarked

sarcastically.

Hanzel cleared his throat. “No, she really stole from you-”

“I didn’t steal anything,” Feather interrupted him, looking at how confused he appeared. She found it hard to

believe that a man could be this stupid.

“I understand what you’re trying to say. Let me introduce you. This is Fifi, my very own
