Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1031

Pearl even wore a mask, trusting the pharmacist's honesty, and left with the pregnancy tests.

After she left, the doctor took out a phone from his pocket, hands trembling, and replied, "I'm sure you've heard what you wanted to…"

Back home, Pearl took the test.

When two red lines appeared, her heart sank. She was pregnant.

She wasn't ready to be a mom, so this caught her by surprise. Her first reaction was to call Richard, but then Richard came back.

Watching him quickly walk into the living room, Pearl's heart raced.

"Richard, I'm…" She couldn't bring herself to say the word 'pregnant.'

But seeing Richard's troubled expression, Pearl decided not to burden him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Just some issues with the company," Richard said, massaging his temples to ease his headache. "It's nothing. Don't worry about it."

Knowing Richard's usual calm demeanor, his reaction indicated a serious problem. Pearl asked, "What happened? Maybe I can help you."

"Silas. He leaked all our company's information to Lawson Enterprises. They beat us to developing our concepts and designs."

Pearl was enraged. "Silas needs to be put in his place!"

Taking a deep breath to calm herself, she realized she never expected Silas to stoop so low. She had hoped he had some conscience, but she was wrong!
