Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1055

Damian regretted provoking Gigi.

He went back to his room and sat at the table, fiddling with his phone to pass the time. After a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Damian didn't turn around, avoiding looking at Gigi as she entered. He was unsure how to face her.

Gigi entered timidly, carrying a tray with a cup of milk. "I want to say sorry, Damian. Earlier, I..." She placed the milk on the table gently.

"It's okay. You're young. I won't argue." Damian still didn't meet her eyes. "By the way, I bought a villa in Enswood, near Waldorf Residence..."

Gigi couldn't control her emotions. "It's not even been a month. Can't you wait to get rid of me?"

Damian found the one-month agreement difficult to handle. He was about to explain it when Gigi asked, her voice trembling, "Do you hate me?"

Hate her? No way.

But Damian decided to keep his distance, ignoring her hopeful expression. "I'm sure you understand how I feel about you. Don't you get it?"

Gigi was at a loss for words.

"I don't hate you, but I don't want to see you. I'm nice because Pearl asked, but I don't want to be close. Understand?" Damian's words were harsh.

Blood drained out of Gigi's face. She wanted to speak but found herself speechless, her throat hoarse.

Damian glanced at her. Seeing her distant look made him feel guilty. He wondered if he was too mean, as she usually didn't act like this.

"You probably hate me now. Just remember me as this annoying person..."

Damian was still speaking when Gigi suddenly said calmly, "I don't hate you. I don't know how to hate you, but..."

She had loved him for so long. She wouldn't start hating him that easily.

Besides, she couldn't tell if he was being honest or not.

"Are you telling the truth?"
