Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 

Pearl’s l*ps twitched, wondering how he came to that conclusion. 

“No, don’t worry. It’s not a blind date.” She already had someone ready for him. 

Mobius had received such a generous gift from Richard the night before that, even if he felt something was amiss, he went along willingly. Following Pearl’s suggestion, he dressed up a bit, wearing a gray polo t-shirt and a spritz of cologne that instantly improved his appearance. 

Mobius was naturally good-looking, and his clothes enhanced his appeal. 

Pearl was pleased with his appearance and led him, along with Richard, to Sanders Residence. At the doorstep, Mobius suddenly felt stressed when he realized their destination. 

He looked at Pearl and grumbled, “Why are we here?” 

Pearl smiled. “It’s Esther’s birthday, and you’re friends with her brother. It wouldn’t kill you to come.” 

“But you know I don’t have a good relationship with her. You’re throwing me under the bus.” 

“Mister Mobius, we’re here already. If you’re going to throw a tantrum, I might just slap you in front of all these people.” Although Pearl was smiling, her words were ice-cold. 

Mobius asked for help from Richard with his eyes, but Richard just glanced at him. Knowing he was trapped, he decided to stop arguing. 

Esther waited at the door for them and was delighted to see Mobius. “You came, Mobius.”

Esther was confused. “What boyfriend?” Then she remembered something and burst into laughter. “You mean Christian? He’s 

Before she could finish, a man in black jeans playfully put an arm around her neck and smiled. “Esther, what are you doing here? I thought I’d lost you.” 

Esther rolled her eyes at him. “Christian, can you be more gentle? It feels like you’re trying to strangle me.” 

“I would never hurt you. I’m much gentler than that.” 

They bantered back and forth, leaving Mobius feeling like a third wheel. Without a word, he walked into the house with 

Richard. 

Pearl followed them, saw the two embracing, and remembered that Mobius wasn’t aware of their true relationship. She smirked. “Esther, if you really have feelings for Mobius, you shouldn’t be doing that.” 

Esther froze. “He’s my cousin. Mobius just doesn’t know it yet. I’ll tell him.” 

Pearl glanced at Mobius’s retreating back and shook her head. “He seems a bit shaken. You should tell him sooner rather than later.”
