Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 263

"No, I'm not. You framed me, and I want to seek justice for myself!"

Pearl narrowed her eyes and frowned. "Could you at least put on some clothes before seeking justice for yourself?"

Sophia realized all too late the impropriety of her attire, but Esther didn't prepare any clothes for her. The snickers and laughter from the onlookers deepened her embarrassment.

Caught in this awkward situation, Sophia could only grit her teeth and endure the humiliation. She turned away from Pearl and accused, "Are you trying to divert attention away by changing the subject?"

This was the first time Pearl had encountered a culprit who shifted blame so brazenly. It prompted another chuckle from her. "Do you even have any shame, Sophia?"

"I placed so much trust in you and respected you when we worked together at the company. I considered you my senior, and I didn't hold a grudge when you played a part in my dismissal. But why did you plot against me again here today?" Sophia began to sob, her feigned distress adding to her allure.

She had a plan in mind. As long as she could shift the blame onto Pearl, she'd appear as a mere victim. Even if the reporters reported the incident, she'd be the innocent party, with the men involved unaware of her true identity. Pearl would have no evidence to counter her claims.

"Just a moment. Let's clarify one thing. I didn't frame you or cause your dismissal from the company. You were fired because of your involvement with several men, which ruined their families," Pearl stated firmly, her words bearing the truth.

This led to onlookers gossiping and casting disdainful glances at Sophia. Some women who had experienced family breakdowns due to home-wreckers also voiced their condemnation, calling Sophia derogatory names despite her innocent appearance.
