Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 815

Confused, Silas tilted his head. "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Pearl sighed, realizing she needed to spell it out for him. "Celine was wearing a ring with a hidden camera. She might have wanted to record your time together. And yes, I splashed water on her hand to ruin that plan. You didn't catch on to her scheme?"

Enlightened, Silas said, "So, you did it to stop her from recording us?"

"You catch on quick," Pearl remarked with a snort.

"Did she want to make us look like a couple while we're trending?" Silas grimaced, feeling repulsed by the idea that Celine might have wanted to manipulate their image for social media.

He hurriedly wiped his hand with tissue paper, wanting to rid himself of any trace of contact with Celine.

"Be more careful next time. Celine isn't as naive as she appears," Pearl warned, her tone serious.

Silas reluctantly agreed, feeling chastised by the experience. Then, a thought occurred to him. "Will she work for another company instead?"

Pearl's expression darkened. She hadn't considered that possibility. If Celine left, there was a chance she might end up at Hugo's company.

She didn't care if Celine would resign or not. She was merely concerned about Hugo's ulterior motives and might make a move again.

"What's on your mind?" Silas asked.
