Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 720

The viewers, who had been discussing excitedly just a while ago, had now fallen silent as they watched the intense match between Pearl and Silas with bated breath.

Silas turned on his profile page to show off his achievements and stats.

[Damn! I had no idea he had won so many awards before.]

[Yeah, he used his alternate account for the live show, but this is his main one.]

[So, he's MissingPearl, the one who suddenly became the runner-up on the list and took the top spot when Pearlbelle stopped playing?]

[MissingPearl... Could it be that he was missing Pearlbelle? Oh, my! How romantic!]

Pearl had missed that connection, but as people discussed it, she realized the truth. She glanced at Silas, catching the passion in his eyes.

"Yeah, they're right."

Pearl refuted, "Bah! How disgusting!"

"You could have called it cheesy, but 'disgusting'? That's a bit harsh," Silas retorted. He moved his wrists deftly, clicking on the one-on-one match option and inviting her to join. "The first to score three kills wins. How does that sound?"

Pearl saw no reason to decline his challenge. "Sure. But since it's a match, let's make it interesting. How about a bet?"

Silas stroked his chin with a mischievous smile. "How about this? If I win, you become my girlfriend."

Pearl quickly decided that she couldn't afford to lose this match based on those terms. "What if you lose?"

"If I lose... I'll behave, work properly, and won't pester you for an entire month."

This bet was certainly biased.

Slightly exasperated, Pearl rolled her eyes. "It's unfair. If you lose, you won't be able to pester me again."

Pearl was flabbergasted. She didn't want to read the comments, so she quickly left the live show to avoid affecting her mood for the match.

With their characters selected, they officially began the match. Pearl was surprised by Silas's skill level. He displayed remarkable awareness and control in the game, earning her respect.

Still, Pearl wasn't one to back down. In the first round, she secured the first kill with ease.

She raised an eyebrow and taunted, "Impressed yet? You can give up now."

"Give up? Never," Silas replied with determination.

In the second round, Pearl underestimated him, leading to her defeat at his hands. ]

"Did you see that, Pea? You're not all-powerful," Silas said with a triumphant grin.

Pearl, undeterred, responded, "It's because I let you win. Let's continue."
