Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 474

Chapter 474 

Pearl woke up shortly after leaving the operating room. 

Esther and Mobius entered her room, with Hanzel following behind at a slower pace. 

The moment she saw Pearl, Esther burst into tears. “Pearl… I thought you died… but you survived. Thank goodness!” 

She then threw herself into Pearl’s arms, her tears soaking the latter’s hospital gown. It felt awkward. 

“I’m fine. I was just drowning, but I didn’t die,” Pearl reassured her with a weak smile. Her voice was still frail as she had just woken up. 

Esther stopped crying and, after a moment, burst into laughter. “How could you still be in the mood to joke now?” 

Pearl replied, “Maybe I’m just stating the facts.” 

Mobius patted Esther’s head and said, “Pea just woke up, don’t tire her out.” 

Esther nodded. “I know, I’m done now. I was just worried.” 

Hanzel remained silent, observing Pearl’s weakened state. Then, he turned his gaze toward Mobius and said, “Please take your girlfriend away.” 

Mobius nodded but then immediately froze. “Okay… Wait, what girlfriend?” 

Hanzel ignored him and just looked at him cooly. 

Mobius’s face turned red as he glanced at Esther before rolling his eyes and leaving the room. Meanwhile, Esther seemed to relish the situation as she followed him out, grinning. 

Now, only Hanzel and Pearl remained in the room. Pearl felt a tad uneasy because Hanzel had confessed his feelings to her before, and since her rejection, they hadn’t spoken much. 

“Alright, you don’t need to worry about me. I don’t have a crush on you anymore, “Hanzel stated. His words didn’t sound entirely convincing, but his expression showed acceptance of the situation. 

“I know. You’ll meet someone better,” Pearl reassured him with a warm smile. 

“I’m not in a hurry, but you, on the other hand… This was the first time I saw Richard so anxious, so you should just go ahead and fall for him. He’s quite a great guy.” 

Pearl felt relieved to see Hanzel’s sincerity. “Alright, thank you, Hanzel.” 

“Don’t mention it. You’re my boss now, and if you’re happy, then I’ll have a good life, right?” Hanzel flashed a cheeky smile, adding a touch of mischievousness to his already handsome face, making him even more charming 

“Alright.”
