Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 37

Pearl grinned from ear to ear while watching Abby flare up in a rage.

Abby, having long lost her sanity, started rambling, “Nonsense! Rick was drugged! How could he have consented to sleep with you?!”

Cocking a brow, Pearl knew that it was Abby who had drugged Richard.

Abby realized that Pearl had tricked her. After looking around to confirm that they were alone, she threatened, “I’m warning you. Don’t you dare take my Rick, or you’ll pay for it. He’s mine.”

“You overestimate yourself, Abby. I’m eager to see if you’ll succeed.” Pearl stretched lazily and returned to her seat, ignoring the madwoman.
