Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 910

Hanzel interjected, "Fifi lost her parents. You didn't know, but you touched on a sensitive topic."

Susan felt remorseful upon learning about Feather's situation. "I'm sorry, Fifi. I didn't realize. Hanzel never mentioned it to me. I should have been more considerate."

Feather, an orphan, received unexpected sympathy from Susan, evoking a mix of emotions within her.

"If you're willing, Fifi, marry Hanzel without worry. I'll make sure he treats you right. If not, I'll break his legs if he bullies you." It was clear that Susan wanted to protect Feather.

Hanzel, expecting Susan to feel bad, was surprised by her compassion. He realized that Susan's concern might bring happiness to Feather, outweighing any bad feelings he felt earlier.

"Thank you, Ma'am..." Feather's hand trembled while holding the fork, moved by Susan's sincerity.

"Eat more. You're quite slim," Susan insisted, adding more food to Feather's bowl.

"Thank you, Ma'am, but I'm afraid I can't finish it all." Feather softened as Susan continued to fuss over her.

Hanzel's smile widened. Seeing that, Feather felt that it was not upsetting to marry him.

Observing Feather's reaction, Susan signaled to Hanzel, who seized the opportunity to express his feelings.

"Fifi, be my girlfriend," Hanzel declared passionately, catching Feather off guard.

Hanzel had confessed his feelings back then, but Feather always felt the timing was wrong, or she was not mentally prepared. Now, it would be quite embarrassing for him if she refused on this occasion.

"Of course. I'll do it better than everyone else," Hanzel vowed.

Richard, overhearing their sweet exchange, couldn't help but smile until Hanzel's statement seemed to throw a subtle shade his way. "What's that supposed to mean?"

Hanzel flinched, realizing Richard might see his casual remark as a slight. He had great respect for Richard and would never intentionally provoke him.

"Rick, you're reading too much into it," Hanzel quickly clarified.

Richard chuckled. "Good to know."

But inadvertently, Hanzel's comment seemed to also jab at Mobius, who was quietly focusing on his meal, not engaging in the conversation.
