Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 828

James reached out and lightly tapped Esther's head with his hand. "You caught on pretty quickly."

"Alright, I want to go home now," Esther said, glancing at her clean clothes as she sat up.

A memory of throwing up flashed in her mind. Why were her clothes clean? If she remembered it, it couldn't have been a dream.

Suddenly, a strange smell caught Esther's attention. Sniffing around, she realized her clothes didn't smell like her detergent.

"Did you take off my clothes?" Esther blurted out, feeling awkward even saying it.

James, feeling stressed but wanting to reassure her, explained patiently, "No, the cleaner did it."

He had to admit he saw something, but he didn't do anything to her. He washed her clothes and dried them.

When the cleaner came that morning, he asked her to put them on Esther so she wouldn't wake up naked. Esther was in such a deep sleep that she didn't even wake up when she was dressed.

Esther realized she was a little rude. But just as she was about to apologize, her phone rang.

"Hello, Pearl," she answered, dreading what her friend might say if she found out she didn't go home and stayed the night at James's place.
