Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 1358

Fireworks shot up into the sky, and Pearl's name appeared when the fireworks burst above.

Pearl was still confused when a romantic tune started playing.

Luther approached her in a suit, holding a fresh bouquet of flowers.

Pearl instinctively stepped back as Luther came closer. "Luther, what are you doing?"

Luther just smiled and didn't answer her. When the music stopped, he knelt on one knee, sounding cheerful and gentle, "Pearl, will you marry me? I've been waiting for four years. I can't wait any longer."

Pearl knew Luther might feel differently about her, but she had always kept him at arm's length. She didn't want their relationship to go beyond friendship.

Yet, Luther's public proposal now seemed to corner her into saying yes.

Pearl frowned. "There are so many people here, Luther. Let's go home and talk about this." She wanted to spare his feelings. She didn't want to embarrass him by saying no in front of everyone, nor did she want to agree on the spot.
