Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 515

Holding Pearl’s waist with one hand, Richard noticed that she appeared a bit undernourished. He felt the need to ensure she got proper nutrition.

Naturally, Richard’s playful teasing was met with a less–than–favorable response from Pearl. Subconsciously, she kicked him.

Caught off guard, Richard, who had been lost in the romantic moment, had his expression change abruptly. He quickly released his grip and dodged her kick. “What are you doing, Pearl?

“Bad guy! You’re as perverted as Hanzel, no, even worse!” Pearl retorted before she could fully calm down.

Before Pearl could finish her rant, Richard pulled her into a tight hug. “Alright, cut it out. We’re just days away from our engagement. There’s no point in messing around now.”

Pearl, still trying to shake off the shock from Feather and Hanzel’s situation, was momentarily speechless when he mentioned their impending engagement.

“What do you mean we’re getting engaged in a few days?”

“Did you forget our agreement at Hazelton the other day? We have to get engaged to put an end to the rumors,” Richard explained with a calm demeanor but a hint of danger in his eyes. Don’t tell me you want to go back on your word, huh?”
