Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 854

Gigi's heartbeat quickened when she noticed Damian's admiring surprise. "I'm fine."

"That's good. | wouldn't want Pearl to be mad atfor not taking care of you," Damian responded. As the one managing the bar these days, he felt

responsible for Gigi's well-being.

Gigi's disappointment grew upon realizing Damian's care cfrom his concern for Pearl.

Sensing Gigi's change in demeanor, Damian assumed that she had recalled those bad experiences. He quickly reassured her, "Don't worry. You're

Pearl's sister now. You'll always have someone looking out for you. And if anyone bothers you, just mention my name. They won't dare to trouble

you."

But all Damian seemed to care about was Pearl, shattering Gigi's budding feelings of love and leaving her feeling despondent.

Nevertheless, she wouldn't dare to compete with Pearl for anything, not even for affection.

"Alright, thank you, Dame," she replied with a gentle smile.

suggested kindly.

Gigi gratefully accepted his offer. "Okay, thank you, Dame."

Pearl arrived at the Jordan Residence and was met with Ezra fainting upon hearing the news. It was Blake who cto receive her and arranged for

Seeing Pearl's exhausted expression, Blake felt a pang of sympathy. "How have you been holding up lately?"

Pearl, looking thinner than usual, managed a chuckle, though her voice sounded distant. "I'm managing.”

Blake sensed she was trying to conceal her emotions and awkwardly tried to comfort her. "It's okay to cry if you're sad. | won't judge you."

"I've already shed my tears. Do | look that weak?" Pearl teased, tapping his head lightly.

Blake rolled his eyes. "I was trying to be nice, but you just hit me. Ungrateful.”

Despite the banter, Pearl felt a bit lighter.
