Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

"You're really smart, Miss Pearl." Claude laughed and stopped doubting.

"So, do you have any proof that Esther told you to do this?" Pearl asked.

Diego was surprised by how clever Pearl seemed without even trying. It looked like she wouldn't be easy to trick.

"Of course, I've got proof." Diego pulled out his phone and showed her a bank transfer. "See? This is the money Esther sent me."

Pearl saw the transaction and noticed it was from a Sanders family credit card. She read the card number out loud and asked Esther, "Are you still using this card?" Esther went pale instantly. "Yes... I'm using that card."

Her father always put money on that card for her. So, she generally didn't care about the details of her expenses.

She quickly checked her card history and saw a 27 thousand dollars charge.

"I don't know what's going on, but I didn't send him money. I don't even know him." But she didn't sound convincing.

Claude decided Esther was guilty. "Miss Esther, just admit what you did. No need to cause a scene." He looked around, and some people looked ready to grab Esther.

James stepped in front of Esther, looking angry. "What do you mean by that, Mister Claude?"

"Well, she should at least apologize to Sabrina. Maybe even kneel down. If Sabrina is okay with it, I won't say more."
