Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 736

Pearl immediately understood why Celine was upset.

"Of course not. | just..." Celine was so embarrassed she just wanted to hide in a hole.

"Alright, I'm starving. Can we order now?" Pearl tried to break the awkwardness.

Silas turned and nodded. "Get the server to take our orders then."

The three of them sat there in an uncomfortable silence, and Pearl suddenly realized that inviting them to dinner had been

impulsive. She should have just given them a bonus.

Throughout the meal, Celine kept her head down, while Silas continued to stare at Pearl.

Finally, at the end of the difficult dinner, Pearl smiled and waved her phone around. "Check your phones when you get home. |

have a surprise for you."

Their phones chimed immediately after her announcement.

Celine checked her phone and saw that Pearl had transferred 150 thousand dollars to her. She had never seen that much money

before. She held her thumping heart and felt like she was working with the right person.

"Are we leaving now?" Silas asked.

Pearl looked at him curiously. "Is there something else you'd want to do?"

"Let's go to a bar. But if you don't want to, it's fine."

Celine had never been to a bar, so she shook her head. "It's probably not a good idea to go to places like that. They can be

dangerous." She was indeed an innocent girl, and she had strict rules for herself about avoiding such places.

After saying that, she looked at Silas with a serious face. "You shouldn't go to places like that too, Silas. People who go there aren't

good. If something happens, you could be in danger."

Celine assumed that Silas had probably frequented bars before and might be a regular at such places. She said this to sound pure

and innocent in his eyes. With her innocent appearance, she hoped to appeal to him.

Pearl touched her forehead. "Celine is right. We should go home." While it was true that there might be sdanger at a bar, with

her around, no one would dare harm them. But she didn't want to corrupt the girl.

"Alright, I'll send you back then," Silas offered.

If he sent her home, how would Celine get back to her place?

Pearl looked at Celine and noticed the awkward expression on her face. "You should send Celine home," she suggested.

"lI don't like the smell of her perfume. She chere on her own earlier, and it's just going back home. It's not a big deal," Silas

refused.

Celine didn't want to put herself in an embarrassing situation, so she stood up and said, "It's fine. | can go hby myself." With a

hateful glare at Silas, she picked up her bag and hastily left the place.

Pearl couldn't help but sigh as she watched the delicate girl hurriedly leave. "Why can't you be nicer to her?"

"Why should | be nice to her? | don't have feelings for her."

Pearl couldn't help but lecture him. "She's a girl. Men should treat women with respect.”

However, Pearl realized that Silas was polite to all the other female coworkers, and it was only Celine who received his cold

treatment.

"She's not like the other girls." Silas frowned with disgust. "Other girls wouldn't throw themselves at me." Celine had ideas that

were inappropriate.

Pearl shrugged. As long as they could maintain a professional working relationship, she didn't mind what their private relationship

was like.

"Alright, let's not talk about her. Lettake you home," Silas said.
