Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 507

Henry's expression shifted dramatically, his fierceness giving way to tears and snot. He pleaded desperately, "No, please, let me explain, Mister Richard, I—"

"Your so-called nephew already filled me in at the door," Richard interrupted, his voice cool but resolute.

"What? Didn't he stop you?" Henry was puzzled. Camden had been focused on looking for his parents' murderer. It didn't make sense that he would let Richard into the restaurant.

Richard used his dagger to lift Henry's chin, imparting a sense of icy dread that sent shivers down Henry's spine. "He did stop me, but it wasn't necessary, considering you know who killed his parents." He then turned around and saw Camden entering the restaurant, his face etched with hatred.

"Do as you wish with him, Mister Richard. He must pay for killing my parents. I'll do it myself if you decide to spare him today!" Camden said.

Camden had discovered the truth about his parents' murder long ago. To his shock, his seemingly kind uncle was the culprit behind it all. Henry had even tried to pin the blame on Pearl to seize the Wilson family's property and Evil Spirits.

"If you're smart, you'd know who stands to gain the most from your parents' deaths." Camden hadn't forgotten Richard's words. He had been waiting for this day to come, confident that he could make Henry pay, even if he lacked the power to do it alone.

"Camden! Don't be fooled by them! We're family. How could I harm you? Your parents died in an accident three years ago, and Pearl was the one responsible for it!"

If Pearl had had any strength left, she would have risen to her feet and slapped Henry for making such a baseless accusation. She had merely passed by the scene of the accident, and she was in school at the time. She had no motive to harm Camden's parents.

"If you doubt it, you can try it on him," Camden suggested, referring to Henry.

Terrified, Henry shook his head vigorously. "No, please, don't…"

In response, Richard thrust the dagger into Henry with force. However, it wasn't a retractable knife—it was a real dagger.

Blood began to flow instantly from Henry's wound, and his eyes widened in horror. He had coated the dagger with poison, knowing that Camden was fond of Pearl and had exchanged his weapon for a retractable knife. He had intended for the poison to ensure Pearl's immediate death.
