Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 1056

"Certainly." Damian sounded firm.

"Am I not good enough?" Gigi asked with a big smile. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Damian saw her smile and made up his mind. "Do you think you're the only nice person to me? Do you really think you're the only one who likes me? I could get anyone to be with me just by asking. Can you do that? Don't think too highly of yourself. Remember where you stand."

It was clear he was trying to embarrass her. Right away, Gigi felt upset, even though she had just calmed down.

She stared at Damian, her eyes red and tired but determined. "Okay, let's see then. I've heard people get excited if it's someone they like..."

Damian sensed something was off in Gigi's words. He became alert.

Gigi slowly undid the buttons on her chest, looking gentle and shy.

Damian watched her take off her shirt and reveal her pink bra. Then, he realized what was happening. He quickly grabbed his coat from the chair and covered her with it.

"Georgia Lockwood!"

It was the first time Damian was so angry that he used her full name.

Gigi was trembling, maybe from the cold or maybe from fear.

But she felt a bit happy because she had managed to make Damian so mad. It showed she meant something to him.

"This is the last time you do this. I don't want to see it again," Damian said, looking mad but not really sounding like he cared. "Or else, I'll have to tell your sister."

"Can you please stop bringing her up?"

Gigi looked serious when she heard his last words. Her anger couldn't be held back anymore as she pushed him away. "Damian, it's okay if you don't like me. But can you not use my sister to shut me up?"

"Why don't you listen to me? I didn't say that to shut you up..." Damian rubbed the place between his brows. When he saw the tears in her eyes, he gnashed his teeth and made up his mind. "And what if I did? Your sister is attractive, confident, and way more interesting than you. You're just not my type."

"Damian, I get it. You don't want me to like you. But this is too much…" Gigi cried as she spoke. "She's pregnant. How can you still think about her? You say I'm boring, but you're the most boring person I know!"

Her words almost turned into a shout, but they moved Damian. He stood up and grabbed her shoulders. "What? She's pregnant?"

"Yes, she's pregnant with Richard's child. It has nothing to do with you." Gigi tried to stop her tears but realized she was crying a lot.

Damian turned very pale and slowly let her go. He suddenly remembered something and left quickly.

"Where are you going?"

Gigi shouted after him, but he didn't seem to hear as he hurried down the stairs.

She tried to follow him, but he was too fast. From the second floor, she yelled, "Damian, can you not be so foolish? You always call me stupid. But look at what you're doing now!"

Damian paused briefly before rushing off.

When the door was slammed, Gigi collapsed on the floor, tears streaming down her face.
