Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 8

The helper was confused as to why Pearl would ask her such a question, but she answered anyway.

"Amy Young."

Soon, Alex came back down with a bag and reported, "Sir, Ma’am, we found these in the lowest drawer of Miss Pearl's coat rack."

Inside the black bag was a gold bangle, a bejeweled necklace, and a charm bracelet. They were Susan's lost jewelry. Everyone was a little taken aback that they had found these in Pearl's room.

Susan fumed with anger. "What do you have to say, Dustan? What kind of woman have you found for our sons? Her being from the countryside is acceptable, but she's a thief!"

"Pea would never do this," Dustan said with all certainty.

Abby said in fake concern, "Could there have been some sort of mistake?”

The atmosphere became heavy. Richard then stepped forward and suggested, "How about we get Officer Jack here and see if he can get some fingerprints."

If Pearl had done it, her fingerprints would be on the jewelry.

Dustan called Jack Grayson from the police department to help prove Pearl's innocence.

Susan glanced at Dustan. "Fine. But if she’s the one who did it, we’re canceling the marriage and throwing her out.”

Before Dustan could speak, Pearl answered calmly, "Sure."

The investigation would take some time, so they went to the dining room to have dinner first. Dustan and Susan had yet to come to the table when the others already sat down. Mobius was gloating as he said, "This may be your last feast, Pearl. Enjoy it!"

"You should enjoy it too. If I'm still here tomorrow, I'll ask Mister Dustan to throw you out."

"Dream on!"
