Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1201

Pearl took a deep breath. "Okay, enough with the silly talk. I'm here to work with you, not to listen to your complaints." Then, she left.

Lorrie gritted her teeth in frustration. Pearl didn't seem bothered at all.

Lorrie had gone overseas for a small cosmetic procedure to look similar to Jenny, but not exactly like her.

She was no longer the person she used to be. Her return was all about showing Pearl that she could no longer be looked down upon by her.

Pearl planned to go to the Jordan family's home in Bodgow over the weekend to sort out some matters. She felt it was the right time for them to take care of these things.

Before leaving, she even asked Saule if she wanted to come along. Lately, Saule had been looking healthier after spending some time recovering in the hospital. She was enjoying life, except for Santiago, who kept pestering her.

At first, Pearl thought Saule might feel uncomfortable about the Jordan family because of past events. Unexpectedly, Saule agreed to it without any hesitation.

"Pea, that's all in the past. I've moved on," Saule said, showing more understanding than Pearl expected. "And look, I've got a wonderful daughter. How could I not be happy?"

"Did you two know each other before the incident?" Pearl wondered. It was the only way she could think of to explain Santiago's persistence.

"That's impossible. I swear we never met before that," Saule replied. She had always been a homebody and hardly ever talked to strangers, much less got close to a random guy. Besides, she had never had any close male friends.

Pearl understood that Saule had no recollection of Santiago. "Did he fall for you at first sight or something?" she joked.

Saule, always serious, just rolled her eyes. "With all the women around him, do you think he'd really be interested in me?"
