Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 

Pearl found the source of her bad luck when she heard Jenny’s reply 

“You asked for coffee two hours ago. Are you denying it now?” 

Jenny finally remembered. “Oh, I’m sorry, Pea. I forgot since it’s so long ago. We just had a meeting so I’ve forgotten about this.” 

Concerned about Pearl’s drenched state, Jenny apologized, “Are you alright? You’re soaked. I’m really sorry. If I hadn’t asked for the coffee, you wouldn’t have had to go out in this weather. You should dry off to avoid catching a cold.” 

Pearl was suspicious of her lack of remorse. “It’s fine.” 

Despite Jenny’s harmless appearance, Pearl could see the ridicule in her eyes. It was fleeting, and Pearl wondered if she had imagined it 

For now, this person didn’t seem to be a villain, but she wasn’t particularly pleasant either. Pearl nodded and left it at that. 

Suddenly, something crossed Pearl’s mind, and she raised an eyebrow Before embarking on her coffee run, she had been explaining things to Jenny with her phone on the desk. At one point, she had walked away to make a copy of a file. 

She realized how her message was read. 

After changing into dry clothes, she entered the president’s office. No one knew what happened within, but when she emerged, her face betrayed her anger. 

People inquired about what happened, and she simply mentioned that missing the meeting had caused some issues, resulting in a reprimand from the president. 

However, Jenny knew that their problems didn’t end there. She expressed concern and offered, “What happened? Did the president give you a hard time? Should I go explain things to him?” 

Pearl looked at her coldly. “Quit the act. Isn’t that rather deceitful of you? I’m the one facing bad luck, not you, so stay out of 

this.” 

Jenny appeared to be puzzled and hesitated. “What do you mean, Pea?” She sounded hurt. 

Pearl realized her tone had been too harsh, so she sighed. “I apologize. I was annoyed, and my words came out hurtful.”
