Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1029

"Alright, since you've got your own stuff going on, I won't bother you. I didn't come here to fix things for Esther. I just want to understand your perspective. So, I'll advise her to move on," Pearl said, trying to be understanding.

She appeared empathetic, but James wasn't happy with her words.

Pearl prepared to leave after her declaration, silently counting down in her head.

"Hold on, Missus Pearl."

Just as she expected.

Pearl slowly turned around, smiling. "Yes? You have something more to say?"

"Tell Esther it's not what she thinks."

"What's she thinking? And what did you tell her? Why all the secrets?" Pearl asked, playing dumb.

James looked more troubled. "Just tell her that, please."

Pearl shrugged, acting indifferent. "In that case, why won't you tell her yourself?"
