Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 303

Chapter 303 

Pearl was about to label Glenn a playboy when someone screamed nearby. 

“Look! What’s that above us?!” 

Startled, Pearl immediately looked up and spotted a drone carrying a large bucket of lard. In the blink of an eye, it plummeted to the ground. 

Squinting her eyes, Pearl grabbed Blake and pulled him aside. Glenn, thanks to his agility, managed to evade the impending disaster as well. 

Unfortunately, many others were not as fortunate, unable to escape the falling lard. They sl*pped and tumbled to the ground, crying out in pain. 

Pearl looked at Blake and asked, “Are you okay?” 

“I’m okay, but you…” Blake’s eyes narrowed suddenly as he yanked Pearl into his arms. A searing, agonizing sensation swept over him. 

Sulfuric acid? 

Pearl grimaced as she felt the burning pain on her arm, where the acid had made contact. Suppressing her own agony, she glanced up and spotted a figure turning away, holding a bucket of sulfuric acid. 

But she couldn’t afford to chase after the assailant at the moment. Supporting Blake, she realized that his back had been burned while shielding her from the acid. 

“Glenn, call 911 now!” 

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Glenn’s brows furrowed. “No, it’ll take too long. I’ll rush him to the hospital!” 

Pearl nodded, allowing Glenn to help her get Blake into the car. They sped off to the hospital, where Blake was quickly taken into surgery. 

Anxiety gripped Glenn at the sight of Pearl’s bleeding arm. “I’ll get a doctor to tend to your wound.” 

Pearl nodded. “Okay.” 

While having her wound treated, Pearl read the news. As expected, the public was buzzing about the accident, with three hot topics trending on the Internet. 

[The Jordan family’s granddaughter was rumored to be a country bumpkin but turns out to be Rarity, a renowned wine taster.] 

[Vicious lard attack at wine-tasting party leaves many injured.] 

[Sulfuric acid attack on Mr. Blake. The Jordans are furious.] 

Pearl’s arm throbbed with pain, aggravated by the nurse’s trembling hands. The nurse seemed to be new and unskilled. 

Glenn took over the medical supplies from the nurse and flashed a reassuring smile at Pearl. Let me handle this.” 

Pearl eyed him skeptically, but to her surprise, Glenn’s touch was much gentler than the nurse’s. Soon, the pain gave way to a soothing, cool sensation.
