Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1341

When the boy's mother saw Pearl, she frowned in disgust, a hint of jealousy flickering in her eyes. "I was just a little late. How dare you pick on my son in front of everyone just because he doesn't have someone to defend him?"

She had long been upset with the woman in front of her, and she finally found the chance to vent. "I'm warning you. Don't you dare mess with my son!"

The woman pulled the boy behind her and scolded Darius viciously. "It's you again! Why are you always picking on my son?"

Again?

When Pearl heard this, she turned her head, puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Darius's gaze darkened. "This isn't the first time he's called me a bastard."

The teacher beside them explained awkwardly, "These two kids often have minor conflicts, but we usually manage to resolve them…"

"Minor conflicts? So you're saying you don't care when my son is insulted?" Pearl's demeanor abruptly shifted to intimidation.

"Well, Miss Pearl…" The teacher tried to calm things down, but seeing Pearl's unwillingness to let it go, she didn't know how to explain further.

"What now? Still itching for trouble?" The woman chuckled, her hefty frame jiggling. "Let me tell you this. Your son is just an illegitimate child without a father!"

Before her laughter could subside, a resounding slap echoed through the room.

Suddenly, a voice resonated from the doorway. "Who said he's an illegitimate child?" The voice was both familiar and soothing yet unfamiliar to Pearl.

She turned her head but couldn't recognize the newcomer. But as soon as she turned, her gaze locked with affectionate eyes strikingly reminiscent of Darius's.

Before she could retort, the woman's demeanor softened upon seeing the handsome man at the door. "Who are you, sir?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who you accused of being illegitimate."

Hearing this, the woman immediately covered her chest and coquettishly said, "It's all her fault! She's the one who started bullying us!"
