Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 

Different emotions flickered in Richard’s eyes. He then pushed Justin’s hands away. “Go away.” 

The spark of enthusiasm that had briefly ignited in Justin was quickly extinguished. Awkwardly, he touched his nose. “I was just kidding. If you want to win her back, you’ll have to do it yourself.” 

“Why should I do that?” 

Justin marveled at Richard’s disappointing behavior. “It’s obvious that you love Pearl. I don’t understand why you’d want to 

be with Jenny when it’s so obvious you have no feelings for her.” 

Richard wondered if it was that obvious. Swirling the wine in his glass, he hesitated. “Ezra kidnapped my mom and forced me to break up with Pearl so she could go back and get engaged.” 

Stunned, Justin couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Why didn’t you tell me about such a serious matter earlier?” 

“It wouldn’t change anything even if I told you.” 

“You could tell Pearl even if you didn’t tell me. Do you really think she won’t understand you?” 

Richard’s eyes were gloomy. For the first time, he started to feel like retreating. “If I had been threatened with my family once, it would have kept happening. This kind of relationship is torture for Pearl.” 

Thinking of Raymond, he couldn’t help but smile. “And Raymond is pretty good too.” With that, he downed the rest of his 

wine. 

“You’re Richard! If you can’t be with the woman you love, you’d better give up on life!” Justin felt like slapping some sense into Richard. 

For a moment, Richard looked at Justin, utterly speechless. 

“You need to clarify things. If you regret it, it’ll be too late. Besides, Pearl is no ordinary woman. She has the ability to work through any problem with you.” 

Hearing this, Richard was deeply moved. He started to wonder if he could accept the fact that he had broken up with Pearl. 

“And you don’t even know what kind of person Raymond is. If Pearl is mistreated or bullied, then you…” 

“Understood.” 

Richard’s sudden determination surprised Justin. “What have you understood?”
