"That was hilarious! Did you see Howard's face? It was as if the ground had swallowed him!" Pearl laughed until she was almost out

of breath.

"Feeling better now?" Richard's voice softened as he talked to Pearl.

"Absolutely, | feel fantastic." Pearl got up, stretching leisurely. "And all | did today was enjoy the spectacle and cout on top

without lifting a finger." If only every day could be as relaxing as today.

Richard, catching her mood, allowed a smile to break through his usually serious demeanor. "You won't have to worry about a thing

from here on out. I've got you covered for all your lazy days ahead."

Pearl raised an eyebrow teasingly. "Is this what married life feels like?"

"I can make you happy like this every day."

Pearl, caught off guard by his directness, felt a rush of warmth reminiscent of her first love, her cheeks tinged with a blush. "Don't

say things like that. We're still in public," she protested, though they were alone.

"It's fine. It's just us here," Richard reassured, noting the shift from Pearl's public bravado to her private shyness, a contrast that he

found very captivating.

"Alright, you mentioned Howard will be coming by later, right? Let's head back now," Pearl suggested, tugging at his sleeve, eager

to leave.

Richard felt disappointed at missing the chance to tease her further, but seeing her blush, he couldn't help but push a little more.

However, deciding she was too delicate for such jests at the moment, he opted for a gentler approach, affectionately pinching her

nose. "Okay, let's go home."

As Howard made his way to fetch Pearl's mother, Pearl and Richard returned to Waldorf Residence.

Pearl half-expected Richard to have stashed Winona in sdank, dark cellar. Instead, she found Winona comfortably confined to

a room, apparently having been told simply to stay put.

Upon entering, Pearl caught Winona in the midst of a lock-picking attempt, her surprise evident as the door unexpectedly swung

open.

"What are you doing here? Did you kidnap me?" Winona refused to accuse Richard of abduction.

Pearl, momentarily speechless, wondered at Winona's tic leap to conclusions. "Do you really think I'd kidnap you?"

Winona, unaware of the details concerning Pearl's mother and the lack of information from Howard, was visibly taken aback. She

realized there was no reason for Pearl to kidnap her.

"Then why am | here?" Having been brought blindfolded, Winona was unfamiliar with her surroundings, and the sight of Pearl only

fueled her mistaken belief that Pearl had kidnapped her.

"I'm the one who brought you here," Richard interjected, having just arrived after attending to other matters.
