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

Pearl shook her head. “No, it’s just that I’ve been preoccupied with something lately. I’m not in the mood for our

Pearl’s eyes brightened, making her look prettier. “Really? Can you do that?”

“But I have a condition. You must get engaged to me right after it’s done.”

Hearing this, Pearl was overjoyed and forgot about her earlier reservations. “No problem. Maybe we can even

arrange a double engagement with them.”

Richard was stupefied as he had never considered a double engagement. It sounded interesting, and he could use

it to his advantage.

With a smile, he leaned in and whispered something in her ear.

“Do you think it will work? Will it make him feel desperate?” Pearl sounded a bit uncertain.

“Well, that’s exactly what we want.” While it may have sounded fine, Richard couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy

about plotting against his own brother in this way.

Pearl remarked, “What a block of ice!”
