Chapter 493

Pearl was about to speak passionately when her phone suddenly chimed gently. It seemed Esther in

the next room had woken up.

She looked at everyone, and they understood that Esther was awake. So, they all headed to the

room

Upon seeing four people standing in front of her, Esther immediately screamed and covered her eyes.

“Ahh-”

Pearl was puzzled. “Why are you screaming?”

“I just woke up, and I haven’t put on makeup yet! My bare face has been exposed, I can’t live

anymore!” As a famous female celebrity, she couldn’t be seen without makeup.

“It’s not like I haven’t seen your bare face before. What’s the big deal?” Pearl said, not quite getting it.

Esther was so agitated that she was about to burst into tears. “But Mobius has never seen my bare

face before. If he sees it now, he might call me an ugly duckling again!”

She still vividly remembered that painful experience from years ago. Back then, she was young and

had just joined a talent show. She didn’t pay much attention to her looks and often visited Mobius with a

plain face.

Mobius glanced at her and disdainfully remarked, “You’re just an ugly duckling. How dare you chase

after someone like me?”

This had left a mark on her heart.

Pearl chuckled. “What’s the matter? Do you think Mobius will find you unattractive now? Don’t be silly.

We all saw you do your makeup, and none of us said anything. Why should Mobius be the one to

judge? Isn’t that right?”

“I didn’t say anything,” Mobius said, rolling his eyes in exasperation at how silly Esther was. novelbin

Esther’s troubled emotions finally subsided.

“Alright. Can you tell me what happened last night?” Pearl inquired, feeling a bit foolish. Esther had

been completely intoxicated last night, so there was no way she could remember anything.

With caution, Pearl added, “Just so you know, something might happen today.”

Esther and Hanzel both looked confused, saying, “Huh?”

“You two were undressed and left in a room last night. Many reporters took photos, so you might make

headlines today.

Good or bad news, they would be in the spotlight.

Pearl touched her nose. “It could be a bit embarrassing, but you two better brace yourselves.”

After hearing this, Esther burst into tears. She had worked so hard for so long, and just when success

seemed within her grasp, this incident could set her back. What would Mobius think of her now? He

must think she was dirty, a tainted woman…

Esther cried so much that Pearl began to question if she was being too harsh.

“Alright, stop crying now. It’s so annoying.” Mobius’s tone was far from impatient, but this simple

sentence alone managed to startle Esther.

“Now you’re finding me annoying. I knew it. Men are all the same. I misjudged people!” Esther sighed in

exasperation and turned away, ignoring him completely.

Pearl couldn’t help but smile at the childlike scene. When she glanced at Richard and Hanzel, they

were also subtly grinning. Esther did have a childlike side to her.

“Wait, I need to understand. What should I do now, Pearl? Will this have a big impact on me?” As

Esther spoke, and seeing how she had just cried, Pearl refrained from teasing her.
