Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 806

"You're getting married so quickly?" Pearl mumbled almost to herself.

"Yeah, I'm getting married next month. Do you want to come?"

In Pearl's mind, marriage had always seemed like a distant topic. She and Richard had agreed to get engaged first, and they would

only marry after Pearl found her mother.

But their relationship ended when they found her.

Seeing the wedding invitation now, she felt a sense of loss and melancholy. "Oh, | won't go."

Pearl had been considering if Richard was protecting her exclusively, but the harsh reality shattered her fantasies. His relationship

with his fiancee was good, so of course he was too busy to care about Pearl.

She silently scolded herself for her misplaced hopes, realizing she had been fooling herself.

"Alright." Richard ended that topic.

Soon, they arrived at Cerubleu. As Richard parked the car, Pearl opened the door and hurried out despite the rain.

Her haste moved Richard. "It's raining outside. Take the umbrella."

"Thank you, but I'll be fine." Pearl shook her head and held the documents securely. Then, she braved the heavy rain and rushed

into the company.

Meanwhile, Estrella followed Silas closely.

Silas was growing frustrated because he felt Estrella was walking too slowly. He turned around with a gloomy expression, the black

umbrella shielding his face. "Can you walk faster? You're so slow. Are you a turtle?"

It wasn't the first tEstrella had heard such harsh words. She didn't argue but replied gently, "Alright, I'll pick up the pace."

As they spoke, it felt like they were transported back in time.

The awkwardness that followed made it hard for Silas to say anything more. He silently extended the umbrella to cover her.

In the confined space of the car, their awkwardness reached its peak.

Estrella could have distanced herself from him, but she hadn't, so the umbrella didn't provide much protection, leaving her

shoulders and half of her hair drenched.

Seeing her sitting there like that, with her wet body, Silas couldn't bear it. He grabbed a piece of clothing from the back and draped

it over her.

He had done it impatiently, but Estrella was still moved. "Thank you."

"lI don't want you to get a fever before we arrive."

Estrella thought of something and blurted out, "Are you worried about me?" But she regretted asking the question as soon as it left

her lips.

As expected, Silas looked incredulous. "What nonsense are you thinking? Pearl askedto drive you home. If you get sick and it

affects the shooting, it will impact her income."

"So, you're doing this for Pearl..." Estrella lowered her head in disappointment.

"We've broken up. Logically, we shouldn't have any ties left. It's just a coincidence today. Let's forget about it."

Suddenly, Estrella's eyes becwatery. "Did you stop lovingwhen we broke up?"

Silas was stunned, as he hadn't expected her to ask that question.
