Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 1044

Richard and Pearl had given each other the silent treatment for three days.

At first, Richard didn't realize his mistake. He tried to hug her from behind, but she remained cold and distant, making him realize that something was off.

"Are you mad?"

Pearl turned away, sounding tired. "I'm going to bed."

Richard looked at her briefly, grabbed a blanket, and went to the guest room. They started sleeping in separate rooms without any clear reason.

Usually, during the day, it was just Richard and Pearl at home, and Richard would wake up early to make breakfast for Pearl. However, he didn't do anything today. Pearl sighed when she woke up and saw the empty, cold dining table.

Their relationship seemed to be facing some serious issues.

However, she was determined not to back down this time, especially being pregnant. She hoped that Richard would apologize to her.

After three days of waiting without any sign of him giving in, Pearl didn't get what she hoped for. Instead, she received a phone call.

"Long time no see, Pearl," Hugo's voice was clear and warm. "I have something to tell you. Is Richard with you?"

"No," Pearl responded curtly, annoyed at the mention of Richard.

"Good. I want to ask you out for dinner. Is that alright?"

"I'm busy."

"I know you're pregnant now, so maybe you're not in the best mood, but others might not be so understanding."
