Katie gnashed her teeth and said humbly, “I’m begging you. Let’s go outside and talk.”
Pearl didn’t want to push Katie too far. After all, Katie was carrying Damian’s child, a friend of Pearl’s,
and she didn’t want Damian to suffer any consequences due to Katie’s anger.
Caught in a dilemma, Pearl relented. “Alright, let’s go outside.”
They left the hall together.
Once outside, Katie led Pearl to a secluded corner, blocking her from view. She fixed her gaze on Pearl
and demanded, “How did you find out? Who told you?”
Pearl raised her hands helplessly and replied, “Who else could it be? The baby’s father told me.
Katie immediately frowned upon hearing that Damian had told Pearl about that. She asked cautiously,
“How do you know him? What’s your relationship?”
Worried that they might be involved romantically, she wanted to clarify. After all, it was a very private
affair. Damian might never tell anyone about that given his character.
“We’re cooperative partners, nothing like what you’re thinking.” Pearl couldn’t help but smile. because
of Katie’s insecurity, cursing Damian for dragging her into this mess.
“Alright, there’s one more thing.” Katie said, finally smiling again as she saw there was no romantic
involvement between Damian and Pearl. “I hope you won’t tell Damian about my fiance. I’ll promise you
anything if you keep it a secret for me.” novelbin
Katie seemed to have gone to great lengths to secure a legal father for her child, or perhaps she
genuinely loved Damian.
“Okay, you left Damian because you wanted to break off your engagement before he found out.
Otherwise, it would stop you from being with him.” Pearl’s guess wasn’t far off the mark, and she could
sense it in Katie’s gaze.
However, she didn’t know that Damian didn’t care as much about Katie and her child as she thought.
Katie, on the other hand, saw her baby as her most powerful bargaining chip and was willing to do
whatever it took to be with Damian.
“Dame does want to be with me. So, I have to handle everything perfectly to be with him.” Katie took a
step back and composed herself. “Since you’re his friend, I believe you’d be willing to help me keep this
a secret and help us be together, right?”
Katie began to leverage the relationship between Pearl and Damian.
Pearl understood what was happening but was willing to protect Damian’s child. She nodded, ” Alright,
I won’t tell Damian for now. I don’t need anything from you either. But I hope you won’t play any tricks
on Damian. If you do anything bad to him, I won’t let you off lightly.”
Katie tensed up again at Pearl’s warning. Despite Pearl claiming she wasn’t interested in Damian, she
still warned Katie against hurting him.
Suddenly, Katie recalled the photo she had once seen in Damian’s wallet–it was Pearl.

Quietly, Katie began plotting, realizing that she might need to work with Jenny to eliminate Pearl. It
seemed like the safest course of action and a win–win situation for her.
