Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard)
Chapter 677

Chapter 677

"So what? The child isn't loved so it doesn't matter if it lives!" Katie glared at Pearl and downed the wine without hesitation.

Pearl, feeling confused, retorted coldly, "What's wrong? Didn't Damian find you?"

"As long as I don't want him to find me, he won't be able to," Katie said, taking advantage of her slight drunkenness to release her pent-up frustration. Realizing she might have revealed too much, she quickly stopped herself. "Alright, don't try to trick me, and don't even think about telling him."

"This is between the two of you. What does it have to do with me? You should resolve it yourselves." Pearl grabbed another glass of wine nearby and took a sip.

Katie looked a bit surprised. "Aren't you two close? And, as far as I know, he still couldn't let you go."

"IT don't have that kind of relationship with him." Pearl frowned, not wanting to bring up this topic.

Katie mocked her, saying, "Oh, Pearl, I never thought someone as smart as you could be so stupid at times!"

Pearl suppressed her impatience. "So, what's your point?"

Katie's laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by a resentful expression.

Do you think I really wanted to bring this up? If it weren't for finding your picture in his wallet, why would I have run away while pregnant just to prove whether he loves me or not?"

Pear] was momentarily stunned. She didn't expect this woman in front of her to have such a vulnerable side. After a brief pause, she said patiently, "But you're pregnant with his child. You should go see him." Katie gave a bitter smile. "Why bother? I want his love, not to bind him with a child. If he doesn't love me, he'll never see me or my child!"

Pearl was slightly shocked to hear this. Compared to her sister Jenny, Katie appeared to be in a fragile mental state and might resort to extreme measures that could affect the well-being of her unborn child. Since it was Damian's child, essentially Pearl's half-niece, she couldn't help but offer some advice, "Please take good care of the child.

Excessive mood swings can have an impact on the child's development."

"That's none of your business!" Katie took a deep breath. "We still have unresolved issues between us, so don't pretend to console me."

Unresolved issues? Was she referring to Jenny?

Curious, Pearl stared at Katie's face and caught a glimpse of hatred in her eyes.

"IT will hold both you and him accountable for what you've done!" The ' him' Katie referred to, of course, was Richard.

"Instead of doing this, you should investigate your sister and find out what kind of person she really is," Pearl suggested as she took her last sip of wine, unable to handle the conversation any longer.

Although Katie had a strained relationship with her sister, they were still family, and her bias toward her sister was undeniable. With this in mind, she snorted coldly. "Once I uncover the truth of this matter, I will certainly seek an explanation from you."

Having said her piece, she set her wine glass down on the table and departed.

Three minutes later, a commotion erupted from another nearby corner.

"Help! There's a lot of blood!"

"Why are you all just standing there? Call an ambulance right now!"
