Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 812

Although Estrella was shocked, she maintained her composure. She had encountered Silas before; he appeared just as she remembered, with his casual short hair and ever-present, carefree smile. But she never anticipated that these two seemingly unrelated people would become entangled in such a trivial matter.

"Why are you in a hurry to say sorry? Weren't you adamant that you hadn't stepped on her?" Silas questioned, his tone laced with skepticism.

The culprit began to perspire nervously. "I started to doubt whether I had stepped on her because I didn't feel anything. Considering how slim she is and how thin her wrist is, it's possible that I didn't notice."

"Oh?" Silas's gaze shifted to Estrella's wrist. After a moment's contemplation, he approached and carefully examined her wrist.

It was rare for a man to touch Estrella because of her charm and aloofness. The male students in class rarely teased her.

But Silas was different because he was fearless.

The touch of his hand sent a jolt through Estrella, leaving her feeling helpless under his scrutiny.

"What's wrong? Are you scared of me?" Silas asked, noticing her trembling hand.

However, Estrella's reaction was more a result of shyness than fear, though she wouldn't admit it. Their interaction seemed romantic, stirring an undeniable connection between them.

The culprit, realizing the budding connection between Silas and Estrella, hastily apologized to Estrella and promptly ran away.
