Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Yelena's heart skipped a beat when she saw the fierceness in Pearl's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She knew she was the pampered Miss Yelena and didn't have to be afraid of someone with an unknown background.

"Don't try to threaten me here. I'm not scared of you." She dusted off her clothes and stood up. With her hands on her hips, she confronted Pearl, "I don't care who you are. But I'm warning you, stay away from Silas and my house."

"How amusing. You want me to leave?" Pearl approached Yelena and chuckled. "If Silas hadn't invited me here, I wouldn't have come. Besides, this is the Quinton Residence. Isn't it embarrassing to cause a scene here when you're not even a Quinton?"

Yelena's face turned red with anger. "Cut the crap! This is my aunt's house. What's wrong with me being here?"

"Don't treat your aunt's house as your own. And you should work on your bad temper."

Pearl pretended to dust off her hand and turned away abruptly. "Alright, since your family doesn't seem to welcome me, I'll leave. Goodbye."

Without hesitation, Pearl walked away.

Silas felt extremely frustrated because the person he had invited with great effort had been driven away in anger. However, he didn't dare to stop Pearl, fearing it might leave a bad impression on her.

So, he directed all his anger at Yelena. "Do you think you're above everyone else, Yelena?"

Yelena had been smug while watching Pearl leave, but Silas's question left her speechless. "I... I didn't mean that."

Silas continued to stare at Yelena coldly. "I'm warning you. If you ever offend her again from today onwards, I won't care if you're my relative or not." With that, he stopped looking at Yelena's pale face and left. Yelena watched them all leave one by one while she stood there like a laughingstock, trembling with anger.

She swore she wouldn't let Pearl off the hook.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Pearl pretended to be angry as she rushed out of the house, and no one dared to stop her. It was only after leaving that she remembered to text Silas.

She checked her phone and saw a series of apologetic texts from Silas.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean it. I won't let her come near you again.

Pea, I'm begging you. Please text me back.

Don't be mad. You'll get wrinkles.

I'll apologize to you on her behalf.

Stunned, Pearl was still angry, but she knew who was at fault and who had offended her. She was clear about that.

Since Silas continued to text her, she replied to his messages right away. I'm fine. I'm going home.

Silas: You didn't even text me an emoji. You must be mad.

Pearl: No, I'm not mad.

Silas: Mad People always say they're not.

Pearl: Fine, you can work overtime when everyone else has a day off tomorrow.

Please don't do this to me! Silas even added a crying emoji.

Pearl switched off her phone and couldn't help but smile.
