Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1021

James didn't say anything, quietly looking at Summer.

"Also, you can ignore her, but bringing someone new to purposely upset her is too much... I don't even know how to describe you anymore," Summer continued, her anger palpable as if she were the victim in the situation.

James couldn't help but laugh. "Are you implying that I'm a bad person?"

Even though Summer thought James was the worst, she knew it wasn't worth losing her job over expressing it. "I wouldn't go that far, but you should definitely think about it," she replied firmly.

Summer imagined herself being furious if she were in Esther's shoes. Esther was so kind-hearted. If it were her, she would have caused a scene to embarrass them both.

James glanced at the uneaten food on the table, remembering how Esther always reminded him not to waste food. A pang of sadness washed over him. How unhappy must Esther be if she couldn't even enjoy the food she loved?

Determined, Summer removed her name tag. "If you feel I've offended the lady or you, you can fire me, and I'll accept it. But I still think you should just leave her alone if you don't have feelings for her, okay?"

James nodded. "Okay."

Although she sounded cool saying that, Summer's heart still ached. She was about to join the ranks of the unemployed. "I'll pack my things then," she said, turning to collect her belongings.

"You don't need to resign. I think our firm needs someone who values justice as much as you," James remarked.

Summer paused and turned around in disbelief. "Really? You think I value justice?"
