Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 159

Abby never expected Pearl to uncover all this damning evidence. Fear coursed through her, causing her legs to give way, and she fell to the ground.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Weren't you so confident earlier? Why are you suddenly so quiet?" Pearl scoffed and watched as Abby shook because she knew all the evidence was real.

"I didn't do any of that. You fabricated all of them!" Abby's voice trembled uncontrollably. Confronted by Pearl's smug expression, the world seemed to spin around her.

Pearl pressed on, "Explain how I fabricated these. If you doubt the photos, I can get the video authenticated."

Richard, who had been silently observing, was shocked to his core. He never imagined that Abby, who had grown up with his family and was like a sister to him, would attempt to harm someone, especially his mother.

"Explain yourself, Abby!" He wanted to give her a chance to deny it.

"I… Rick, you know how well Aunt Susan treats me. Why would I hurt her?"

Richard took a deep breath. "Why should I believe you?"

"I…" Abby had more to say, but the door swung open, and Hugo entered with a nurse for his rounds. He glanced at the tense atmosphere in the room and chuckled. "What's going on here? This looks pretty intense."

"Hughie… "Abby bit her lip and pleaded to Hugo, "Hughie, how could I possibly be responsible for trying to harm Renee and Aunt Susan? I don't even know Renee, and I have a great relationship with Aunt Susan. Why would I want to hurt her?"

Hugo looked down and smiled. "Well, I believe you. Let me take a look at the evidence."

She didn't know when Susan would regain consciousness, but she realized this was her chance to clear her name. Thankfully, Hugo was there or she wouldn't be able to talk her way out of this.

"If that's the case, Abby might not be the mastermind behind all this." Richard raised his brows. "Could you please step out for a moment? I need to speak with Pearl."

Hugo and Abby left the room.

Once outside, Hugo dropped his cheerful expression. "You're so careful. Pearl would have destroyed you if I didn't show up."

Abby expressed her gratitude to him, "Thank you, Hughie. I would have been in serious trouble without your help. I might even have ended up in jail."
