Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 46
The woman looked scared. “L..”
Pearl smiled kindly. “You should check things first before giving such an accusation, Miss.”
People were shocked because Angel, the famous jewelry designer, was actually Pearl from Waldorf Enterprises. Everyone was
taking pictures. This piece of news was as shocking as Pearl’s suspected plagiarism.
Pearl changed the topic. “I made this jewelry set for couples. The men wear ‘First Sight‘ and the women wear ‘First Love‘. It’s
about love that grows with time, a love that lasts.”
Consequently, the press conference ended successfully. After the event, they posted on their website that the jewelry was all
sold out that night.
People online were upset they didn’t buy it.

[Oh no! Why did I even hesitate on buying it? This is Angel’s design!]
[Yes, I want it too. Waldorf Enterprises has to start their official sale sooner. I need to buy it or my wife will divorce me!]
These comments stunned Richard, surprised to learn Pearl was Angel. He started thinking about the other names she used, like
Nancie. He found her hard to predict.
After work, they went home late at one o’clock in the morning. They were hungry.
Pearl’s stomach growled. “I’m going to make pasta. Do you want some, Richard?
“Okay.” Richard nodded after a pause.
Before long, Pearl served two plates of pasta with a fried egg each. The food was simple but tasted pretty good.
Richard was surprised. “I didn’t know you could cook too.”
Pearl raised her chin smugly. “There’s a lot you don’t know about me.”

Suddenly, Richard started interrogating her. “How many Identities do you have, Pearl?”
Pearl laughed. “Are you interested in me, Richard? Why do you care so much?“”
“I’m just asking.” Richard’s expression was unclear in the dark, but he sounded awkward.
But he was not completely honest. He really wanted to know more–he was starting to like her now. Suddenly, the lights turned on
at the stairs. Hugo was standing there, smiling. “Why are you two still up?” It looked li
he caught them flirting with each other in the middle of the night. Richard quickly said, “I’m going to sleep. You should go to bed
now too,” and left: Pearl was now alone with Hugo. He smiled and asked, “Do you like Rick?”
“You’re such a busybody, Hugo.” She ignored his question.
“My mom wants Rick to marry Abby. Liking him won’t be easy.”
Pearl said confidently, “There’s nothing I can’t do if I want to.”
“I see.” Hugo’s smile turned into a grin.
