"There's something on my face. Removing my mask might freak you out."
The guard, getting impatient, snatched her mask off. "Let's see what— Ahh!"
As soon as he saw her face, he tossed her mask away in shock. "Your face is so ugly! Are thosereally pimples? They're leaking pus! Gross! Don't show your face here again!"
"Okay..." Pearl suppressed her laughter and feigned sadness. She picked up her mask from theground, put it back on, and walked away with her head down.
Once outside, she immediately took off her mask. Then, she loosened her headscarf, letting her haircascade down. From her pocket, she pulled out a special cream, dabbed it on a tissue, and wipedher face. The pimples and pus vanished in a flash, leaving her skin flawless.
Ten minutes later, she reached the agreed spot with Wayne, waiting quietly for his car.
A car pulled up, but it wasn't Wayne's. The license plate didn't match.
Pearl grew wary instantly. Seeing who was inside, she looked surprised. "Damian, what are youdoing here?"
Damian, in his flashy Cayenne, looked eager. "I'm here to pick you up and share something withyou," he said mysteriously.novelbin
"I'm only interested in my mom's situation right now." Pearl slumped into her seat, rubbing her tiredeyes. She had to wear colored contacts earlier to deal with that guard, a discomfort she despised.Taking them off, her eyes felt relieved.
"Good, because I've got news about her."
Pearl perked up at his words, her exhaustion fading. "What do you know? Tell me." Damian wasn'tone for jokes. If he said it, it had to be true.
She felt a surge of anticipation. Maybe Damian had found out where her mom was.
"A couple of days ago, I bumped into Gigi at a bar, and she told me where your mom is."
Pearl almost jumped out of her seat. "Where's my mom? Tell me quickly."
"She's currently at a sanatorium in Enswood. But, according to Gigi, her condition isn't great, andshe might need treatment."
Prepared as she was, Pearl couldn't shake off the worry. "Can you take me there now?"
Damian revved the engine, saying, "Why else do you think I came here?"
Pearl's eyes lit up. "Great!"
