Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1011

Pearl didn't expect to see Silas there.

"Surprised to see me?" Silas looked dashing in his refined suit, his demeanor exuding nobility and elegance.

"Well, you must have a reason for being here," Pearl replied calmly. As they spoke, she distributed the dessert and coffee to the nearby employees.

"Yes, I do." Silas moved closer to her and whispered, "I came for you."

Pearl felt a shiver run through her but tried to compose herself. "I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve, but there's no need for this."

Silas's smile faded slowly. "I'm simply glad to be here. No need to get all worked up."

"That's good," Pearl said, handing him a cup of coffee. "Here, have some coffee."

"You're so generous, Mrs. Waldorf. This must be expensive coffee," Silas remarked, shaking the cup. "But unfortunately, I prefer Americano."

"I'll remember that for next time," Pearl said calmly.

Silas couldn't quite figure out why it felt hard to talk to her. Unable to gain the upper hand, he returned to his seat.

Pearl casually inquired about Richard's whereabouts from an employee and headed to his office.

Opening the door, she found Richard engrossed in a document. He looked up, slightly annoyed at the lack of a knock, but his expression softened when he saw Pearl.

"What brings you here?" he asked.

"Just thought I'd surprise you since I've never visited while you're working. Also, I wanted to make sure you weren't secretly causing trouble," Pearl teased.
