Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 888

As a famous celebrity, Hanzel always caused chaos wherever he went; even a simple trip to the grocery store turned into a spectacle because of him.

Sensing the impending chaos, Hanzel shot Pearl a glare and made his escape with Feather, followed by a crowd of curious onlookers.

Pearl held onto Richard, staying clear of the commotion.

"Never knew you could be a little devil." Richard chuckled, finding her mischievous side endearing. "You're full of surprises."

Pearl tilted her head up, giving him a coy smile. "Alright, time to check out and head home."

Richard paid for their groceries using his phone, and once they arrived at Pearl's home, he shooed her out of the kitchen.

"I don't need your help. Just wait outside, and dinner will be ready soon," Richard insisted.

Not one to argue, Pearl happily obliged and settled onto the couch, turning on the television to pass the time. Besides, she wasn't a great cook.

But soon, an unpleasant smell wafted from the kitchen, prompting Pearl's concern. "What are you doing?"

Richard's response was curt as he continued to chop ingredients. "I'm cooking."

Pearl hesitated, unsure. "Why do I smell something weird? Are you sure you don't need any help?"
