Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 50

The leader glared at them and said slowly, “Miss Abby said she needs to be alive. But she didn’t say we couldn’t have some fun. What a pretty babe…”

Everyone burst into laughter.

Pearl never imagined Abby would go this far. She stared at the men coldly and chuckled. “Do you even know who I am?”

One of them replied mockingly, “Yeah, you’re our darling, and we’ll give you a great time later..”

But another man, who seemed to know more, said, “You’re Pearl Leighton, the Waldorfs‘ future bride. And a singer too…. Tsk.”

Pearl’s voice turned sharp. “And you think the Waldorfs won’t come after you for messing with me?”

The man just shook his head and smiled helplessly. “They’ll break off the engagement when your reputation is ruined. You’re not family yet. Stop overthinking and just relax and enjoy-”

Pearl raised her brows and smiled, a hint of mischief in her eyes. “But do you know why I haven’t married into the Waldorf family yet?”

Knowing that Pearl could not escape, he said curiously, “Tell me about it.”

Pearl let out a deep sigh. “It’s because I have AIDS. I didn’t pass their health checks, that’s why they’re keeping me at a distance. Since I’m dying, of course the Waldorfs don’t want any of their sons to marry me.”
