Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 727

Winona smiled and shook her head. "What kind of work involves Richard, I wonder? You can't deny that you still have feelings for him, which is why you keep seeking him out."

Pearl was incredulous, but as Winona continued to push, her patience began to wane. "I believe it's time for you to leave, Miss Winona. I have work to attend to and can't spare more time for this."

In other words, Pearl was kicking her out.

Winona had no intention of staying, but before departing, she waved her phone casually. "My relationship with Richard is progressing well. I hope you won't disturb us." She smiled. "By the way, he shared something about you with me. Would you like to hear?"

Pearl didn't even look back. "Not interested."

"Very well, I won't tell you then, to spare your feelings. It would be painful for any woman to hear." Winona sighed.

As Pearl glanced at Winona's confident smile, she couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness. "Alright, there's no need for the reminder, Miss Winona."

Winona had anticipated Pearl's anger but didn't receive the reaction she expected, leaving her annoyed. Pearl's ability to stay composed was frustrating.

"I'm being considerate by reminding you, yet you treat me so coldly," Winona said as she pocketed her phone, preparing to leave. "By the way, one more thing—"

Wayne chortled. "I guess the old Pea is making a comeback."

"Alright, get back to work." Pearl smiled as she ushered Wayne back to his tasks before returning to her office.

Once at her desk, she couldn't help but scoff. Did Winona think she wasn't going to see through her little mind games?

Pearl had no intention of engaging with her, but if Winona continued to be a nuisance, she was prepared to retaliate.
