Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 158

“You seem so happy, Pea? Something good happened?”

Wayne was relieved to hear Pearl sounding happy. He had expected her to be down for a while because of Richard, but it seemed like she was back to her usual self.

“I’m fine. By the way, how’s the investigation about Renee going?”

Wayne was eager to share the update. “The blood traces found at Renee’s home match those of a convict who served time in Enswood. He was sentenced to ten years and was released just two months ago, but he’s already committed another murder. I’ve dispatched someone to track him down. Additionally, there’s evidence that twenty hours before Renee’s death, Abby had a cash transaction with this man, and she transferred 100 thousand dollars to his account.”

“This confirms that Abby was involved in the murder!” Pearl exclaimed, realizing she had wrongly pinned this on Hugo…

Having made up her mind after receiving this critical information, Pearl continued, “Alright, gather all the information tonight. Tomorrow morning, I’ll go to the hospital to meet Abby.”
