Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard)
Chapter 1055

Damian regretted provoking Gigi.

He went back to his room and sat at the table, fiddling with his phone to pass the time. After a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Damian didn't turn around, avoiding looking at Gigi as she entered. He was unsure how to face her.

Gigi entered timidly, carrying a tray with a cup of milk. "I want to say sorry, Damian. Earlier, I..." She placed the milk on the table gently.

"It's okay. You're young. I won't argue." Damian still didn't meet her eyes. "By the way, I bought a villa in Enswood, near Waldorf Residence..." Gigi couldn't control her emotions. "It's not even been a month. Can't you wait to get rid of me?"

Damian found the one-month agreement difficult to handle. He was about to explain it when Gigi asked, her voice trembling, "Do you hate me?" Hate her? No way.

But Damian decided to keep his distance, ignoring her hopeful expression. "I'm sure you understand how I feel about you. Don't you get it?" Gigi was at a loss for words.

"I don't hate you, but I don't want to see you. I'm nice because Pearl asked, but I don't want to be close. Understand?" Damian's words were harsh.

Blood drained out of Gigi's face. She wanted to speak but found herself speechless, her throat hoarse. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Damian had never said such cruel words to her. For a moment, she wanted to cry again.

"I was just joking with you when I promised you one month. Did you take it seriously? I apologize if I gave you the wrong idea. I'm not interested in you-not now, not ever."

Damian's words came across as a warning, as if he was trying to push her away.

Gigi felt humiliated. She thought Damian was criticizing her, and she couldn't argue back, no matter how harsh he was.

Her feelings for him seemed like a joke to her. If she said she liked him, it would sound silly.

"Damian, you..."

"My last compromise is for you to move to the place I mentioned. And give up on that silly idea. We can still be friends. But if you keep on with this, I don't think we should see each other anymore." Damian glanced at her. Seeing her distant look made him feel guilty. He wondered if he was too mean, as she usually didn't act like this.

"You probably hate me now. Just remember me as this annoying person..."

Damian was still speaking when Gigi suddenly said calmly, "I don't hate you. I don't know how to hate you, but..."

She had loved him for so long. She wouldn't start hating him that easily.

Besides, she couldn't tell if he was being honest or not.

"Are you telling the truth?"
