Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 677

"So what? The child isn't loved so it doesn't matter if it lives!" Katie glared at Pearl and downed the wine without hesitation.

Pearl, feeling confused, retorted coldly, "What's wrong? Didn't Damian find you?"

"As long as I don't want him to find me, he won't be able to," Katie said, taking advantage of her slight drunkenness to release her pent-up frustration. Realizing she might have revealed too much, she quickly stopped herself. "Alright, don't try to trick me, and don't even think about telling him."

"This is between the two of you. What does it have to do with me? You should resolve it yourselves." Pearl grabbed another glass of wine nearby and took a sip.

Katie looked a bit surprised. "Aren't you two close? And, as far as I know, he still couldn't let you go."

"I don't have that kind of relationship with him." Pearl frowned, not wanting to bring up this topic.

Katie mocked her, saying, "Oh, Pearl, I never thought someone as smart as you could be so stupid at times!"

Pearl suppressed her impatience. "So, what's your point?"

Katie's laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by a resentful expression. "Do you think I really wanted to bring this up? If it weren't for finding your picture in his wallet, why would I have run away while pregnant just to prove whether he loves me or not?"

Pearl was momentarily stunned. She didn't expect this woman in front of her to have such a vulnerable side. After a brief pause, she said patiently, "But you're pregnant with his child. You should go see him."

Katie gave a bitter smile. "Why bother? I want his love, not to bind him with a child. If he doesn't love me, he'll never see me or my child!"
