Chapter 139
Both Esther and Pearl worked seamlessly, bringing the pure angel and glamorous demon to life in their advertisement.
When the ad cl*p aired, it received a lot of praise.
[Oh, my Barbie is so pretty! Help, I can’t catch my breath!]
[Oh, please. Pearl is the prettiest, okay? Have you ever seen a female star more glamorous than Pearl?]
[What? Stop pitting them against each other. They’re both beautiful!]
[Pearl is the prettiest! You either agree or you’re wrong.]
Pearl found these comments amusing. Her fans had even given her the nickname “Satan” and idolized her.
It was a Friday, and Pearl intended to collect the DNA report, but Mobius stopped her abruptly.
“Miss Pearl.” Mobius looked somewhat awkward, leaving Pearl baffled.
“What’s wrong?”
“Ugh…” Embarrassed, Mobius found it hard to speak up. “There’s going to be an arts festival at my university, and my team needs a singer for a performance. So, I was wondering if…” His eager expression betrayed his request.
Pearl exposed his thoughts. “You want me to help you, right?”
“Yeah.”
Touching her chin, Pearl dwelled on it briefly. “Why didn’t you ask for Hanzel’s help instead?”
“He’s even busier than Rick and is hardly ever home. That’s why I’m asking you…”
Indeed, Hanzel frequently traveled for film shoots.
Pearl nodded in agreement. “I believe this is the first time you’ve asked me for a favor. Alright, let’s out what you’ll be performing.”
Mobius immediately flashed her a smile. “Let’s go, Miss Pearl. I’ll take you there.”
As they were about to leave, a sudden knock on the door caught their attention.

Pearl opened the door to find a young woman completely covered with sunglasses, a mask, and a scarf.
“It’s me, Pearl. I’m Esther!” Pearl heard a delicate female voice. Before she could react, Esther’s tone changed the moment she saw Mobius.
“Oh, Mobius. You’re here too…”
Mobius, impatient and slightly annoyed, responded, “You came all the way to my place. What do Can’t you focus on your work instead of stalking me every day?”

Pearl could sense there was something extraordinary about their relationship. She turned to Mobius and
asked, “What’s going on?”
“I bumped into her in a shopping mall, where she was being harassed by a fan in a corner. I helped her out, but she insisted on giving me money, which I declined. She followed me to my university, and now she’s here at my doorstep.”
Pearl suggested, “Well, let’s invite her in. She only wants to repay your kindness.”
“I told her it was unnecessary, but she came here anyway. I have nothing to say to her. Just get her to leave,” Mobius replied and tried to push Esther out.
Stupefied and indignant, Esther said, “Mobius, I told you I just wanted to repay you. Why do you have to be so cold to me?”
But Mobius sneered. “Repay me? Your way of repaying me was to announce in the university that I have a girlfriend?”
