Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1024

Pearl noticed that ever since they crossed their final barrier, Richard had become somewhat unhinged.

Even during meals, he would be unusually talkative, as if he was worried he wasn't doing enough. He took care of everything himself, even feeding her.

When she asked why he was acting that way, he said because he enjoyed it, then he took a piece of fruit and stuffed it in her mouth.

Pearl wasn't used to this, but she was starting to enjoy it. If he wanted to do these things, she wasn't going to stop him.

However, she suddenly noticed Richard fixating on her belly as if expecting a child to pop out of it.

"Are you pregnant?" Richard patted her belly as he seated himself beside her. His touch was gentle, as if there was a child in there.

Pearl slapped his hand away and frowned. "What? It wouldn't happen so quickly."

Richard smiled, his tone serious. "I thought you were going to say I'm not putting in enough effort."

Pearl fell silent, shooting him a sideways glance. "I think we should take our time with this."

As if he didn't hear it, Richard leaned down to her belly. "Do you want a boy or a girl?"

Pearl sighed. "That's not something I get to decide."

Indeed, the father often plays a significant role in this aspect, while the mother contributes the egg and carries the fetus. Richard knew this, having learned the details of having a healthy baby.
