Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

"My mom's doing fine now, but..." Pearl hesitated, and Susan immediately asked, "What's the matter? But what?" Seeing Susan's anxious expression, Pearl decided not to tell her. She would wait until Richard cback that evening to tell her. "It's nothing serious, just swork delays these past few days," Pearl casually lied, deceiving Susan.

Susan immediately looked stern. "What kind of work matters more than your mom's health?" "I got it, Mom." Susan sighed and said, "Bring your mom over when you have time. I have something to discuss with her." There was guilt in her eyes when she said this, perhaps still thinking about things that happened decades ago.

"Okay." * When Richard returned, he noticed that Pearl had no intention of talking to him and that her tone was indifferent. He found this strange.

After dinner, they returned to their room, but Pearl sat on the bed and refused to talk. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"What's wrong? Why have you been in a bad mood since you cback from the hospital?" Richard suspected something had happened there, so he patiently asked, "Please tell me." "I met someone at the hospital today who looks a lot like you," Pearl spoke slowly, carefully observing his face.

Richard paused for a moment, then smiled. "There are so many people in the world who look alike, so it's normal to meet someone like that." "He's a three-year-old boy." Richard's expression changed. "Do you suspect that's my son?" Pearl didn't say a word, but her silence revealed everything.

Richard almost laughed in disbelief. "We've only known each other for four years. Do you think I had a child with another woman when I first met you?" "That's not what I meant..." Pearl tried to explain, but Richard pulled her into his arms before she could.

"I know you just had a miscarriage, and I understand that must be hard for you." Richard stroked her hair gently, trying to comfort her. "I promise that I've only been with you and have never been involved with any other woman." After spending so much ttogether, how could Pearl not know Richard's character? She just missed the child who was never born.

"We'll have children when you get better." Pearl nodded quietly and wrapped her arms around his waist.
