Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 822

After dinner, Pearl gave them time to be alone and prepared to hand Esther over to James. She trusted him not to do anything untoward to Esther, so that's how the tipsy Esther ended up in his car, just like the last time she got drunk.

As soon as she settled into the car, Esther drifted off to sleep. James observed her restless movements and sighed. Carefully, he fastened her seatbelt, being careful not to wake her up.

When he sat up straight, Esther's seductive and dazed eyes fluttered open, leaving him stunned.

"James…" she murmured.

Surprised yet happy that she recognized him in her intoxicated state, James responded, "Yes?"

Esther reached out and playfully tousled his hair. "I've always wanted to touch your hair. Finally got the chance, hehe."

James was at a loss for words. After gently pushing her hand away, he settled back into his seat.

As he started the engine, Esther suddenly announced that she needed to use the restroom.

"I'm driving now!" Reluctantly, James pulled over to find a public restroom. "Should I bring you over?"

Esther blinked and flashed a cheeky smile. "I lied. Didn't need to go."

James didn't know what to say. If that was the case, there was no point talking to this drunk silly girl. He glanced at her grin and knew there was no way he wouldn't fall for her, but he had one concern.

"I need to throw up," Esther mumbled.

Remembering her previous trick, James ignored her and accelerated.

However, a moment later, he heard the unmistakable sound of vomiting.

James's heart dropped as he quickly pulled over and watched as Esther continued to vomit. It was a new car worth millions, and she was making a mess of it!

Unfazed by his reaction, Esther slurred, "Why aren't we moving?"

Feeling exasperated, James responded, "I'm going to kick you out if you want me to drive."

Esther looked hurt, her eyes welling up. "Why would you kick me out?"

Realizing he was being too harsh, James relented. "Okay, okay, my mistake. Go ahead and finish. We'll go once you're done."

Esther nodded, wiped away her tears, and resumed vomiting.

James, a clean freak, couldn't bring her home in this state. Since they were closer to his place, he dropped her off there first before heading out to get his car cleaned. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

If Esther hadn't been in the car, he might have just sold it.

It took two hours for his car to be cleaned up and ready again.
