Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 170

Carefully, Pearl inspected Susan's body and found that Richard was right. There was nothing wrong with Susan's intake of medicine, but...

With narrowed eyes, Pearl reached out to touch Susan's ventilator and noticed that it was cold.

"I know why she's become a vegetable, Richard."

Stunned, Richard asked, "Why?"

"Look at her ventilator. It's cold. Normally, it emits warmth when it's turned on, but this one doesn't. On the contrary, it feels cold to the touch. I think someone must have secretly pulled off the ventilator when you weren't around and reconnected it when you returned. If this continues, she can't breathe normally. That's why she's now in a vegetative state."

Pearl's analysis enlightened Richard. He clenched his fists with a cold determination. "I'm sure it was Hugo."

"It's not certain. It could have been Abby."

Pearl lifted her gaze and said, "Regardless, our priority now is to save Missus Susan instead of finding the culprit."

Richard nodded. "I've contacted the most reputable doctor in Enswood, and he'll come over later."

Pearl set aside her suggestion upon hearing this.

The doctor arrived promptly. He was a man in his forties or fifties, wearing a suit and gold-rimmed glasses, exuding an air of seriousness and reliability.

"Mister Richard, allow me to conduct a thorough examination of the patient," the doctor said.

As the doctor carefully examined Susan, he frowned and sighed. Finally, he spoke with a tone of resignation, "To be honest, Mister Richard, curing this condition is extremely challenging. We may need to rely on a miracle to save her."

"What do I need you for if I want to pray for miracles?" Richard's stern voice made the doctor tremble.

"Hi, Pearl. You finally called me.You can't imagine how lonely I've been abroad... By the way, when are you coming back? I miss you terribly…"

Pearl interrupted Simon with a smirk. "You're still struggling to beat Leo in chess, the guy who's staying downstairs, right?"

Simon chuckled and admitted, "You got me there. When are you going to help me defeat him? He's so smug. You must help me beat him!"

An idea sparked in Pearl's mind as she smiled. "Okay, let's make a deal."

Simon enthusiastically agreed, patting his chest. "I'll say yes to whatever you have in mind."

Suddenly, Pearl turned her phone toward Susan, who was behind her, and calmly explained, "I want you to help me wake her up."
