Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 893

Richard stood shirtless, wearing only his suit pants.

Pearl couldn't help but admire his well-defined muscles, catching a glimpse of his toned eight-pack. Richard was in great shape, impressive yet not overly imposing. His physique emitted a soft, inviting aura, complemented by his fair complexion.

Pearl mentally scolded herself for her wandering thoughts, blushing and daring not to look at him.

Seeing her reaction, Richard couldn't help but smirk. He was still attractive in her eyes, which made him happy.

Pearl handed him the clean towel and a set of loungewear, ready to close the door, but a hand stopped her.

Richard took the loungewear and asked, "Care to explain why there's men's loungewear in your place?"

Was it Silas’s? The thought repulsed him, and he almost wanted to burn the garment in his hand.

"It's for emergencies," Pearl replied sincerely, leaving Richard no room to argue.

"I’m gonna shower now," Richard announced before leaving.

Pearl closed the door, prepared to shower, and went to bed, feeling exhausted after a long day. As she lay in bed in the dark, the sound of footsteps outside her door drew nearer, stirring up a mix of emotions within her.

But the footsteps hurriedly left, bringing her a sigh of relief.
