Pearl was far from pleased with being labeled as a vixen and turned around, her anger clear on
her face..
“It’s you!”
Katie! She was taken aback to see the person she had been looking for all along.
“You…” Katie was equally stunned. Once she recognized Pearl, Katie couldn’t help but wonder why
she was there with Drew.
Drew picked up on the tension, realizing they might know each other. Curious, he inquired, What’s
going on? Do you two know each other?”
Pearl nodded with a mysterious smile. “Yes, we have quite a history.”
“In that case, I’ll leave you to catch up. I have something to attend to right now, but I’ll be back later,”
Drew said, not particularly interested in reuniting with Katie, who had caused a scene when canceling
their engagement.
But now, she behaved like his fiancee. Drew found it quite disgusting, so he made an excuse and left

Katie had tried to hide her pregnancy, but her belly betrayed her secret.

What else do you know?”
Pearl maintained her composure. “How I found out isn’t important. But, Miss Katie, you’ve slept with
another man behind your fiance’s back, and you’re carrying another man’s child. That’s why you’re
trying to break off the engagement. If the Coopers were to discover this…”
Katie’s face turned ashen as she realized the implications. She had concealed her pregnancy from
everyone, including her own family. If both the Sullivan and Cooper families learned the truth, she
would be in deep trouble. The Coopers might not forgive her, and her own family would disown her.
“This is slander!”
Pearl ignored Katie’s denial and gave her a skeptical look. “A visit to the hospital for a checkup would

he didn’t need any funding.
Pearl persisted, dropping hints. “Your family’s wealth and earned resources are two different things.”

Looking at her mischievous face, Drew similed and was moved.
As Drew contemplated the proposal, a sudden cold laugh interrupted their conversation from behind. “I
haven’t canceled our engagement yet, but it seems there’s a vixen cozying up to my flance.”
