Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard)
Chapter 465

Chapter 465

Pearl followed Richard out, maintaining a calm expression as if nothing had happened.

Observing Pearl, the actress who had been frantically searching for her bracelet breathed a sigh of relief, assuming that Pearl wouldn't seek retribution.

But Pearl looked around and asked calmly, "Who was so eager to find their bracelet just now?"

The actress felt a shiver run down her spine, and an awkward silence settled over the room.

Slowly, Pearl approached the actress and examined her fair, delicate face. "What kind of bracelet did you lose?"

The actress's expression underwent a dramatic change. "It was an accident, Miss Pearl. My grandmother left me that bracelet. I... I was really anxious to find it. I didn't mean to offend you."

Framed in that light, Pearl would appear unreasonable if she pressed further. Hence, she smiled. "It appears I may have misunderstood you. What's your name?" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I'm Ada Dawson, Miss Pearl," the actress replied, her confidence returning. She didn't expect Pearl to hold her accountable after her apparent act of goodwill.

It was obvious that she was trying to flatter Pearl. Others who hadn't gotten along with Ada rolled their eyes at her pretentiousness.

Pearl, meanwhile, sneered and cast an appraising look at Ada. "But... I've chatted and had tea with Mister Gideon, yet I wasn't aware that Missus Hailey's mother had passed away." Pearl's statement left everyone stunned.

"I..." Ada hadn't expected Pearl to be privy to her family's affairs. She awkwardly chuckled and tried to save face. "I misspoke. It was my paternal grandmother instead."

"Oh?" Pearl didn't press further but instead opened her laptop, searching for information about Ada's family background and various details, including her date of birth. "Mister Gideon's mother is still alive. Are you implying that you've cursed both your grandmothers to death, Miss Ada?" Pearl questioned.

Ada was struck dumb when her lie was exposed. She had believed that Pearl was attempting to
