Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 819

Pearl felt Winona's angry stare and responded with her usual calmness. "Got a problem? You seem upset. Do you want to see the surveillance

The mere mention of that rattled Winona. "No, just wondering when we can get back to shooting," she quickly said, trying to steer away from the

Pearl covered her mouth in surprise. "Oh, the high-and-mighty Miss Jesselton is now eager to push things forward?"

Pearl shifted from teasing to action, signaling the crew to reswork.

Winona, under the watchful eyes of Pearl and James, didn't dare to cause any trouble and focused on her scenes, finishing without incident before

quickly leaving to avoid the awkward situation.

Meanwhile, Estrella and Rosalie did well. Showing their professionalism, they wrapped up their parts swiftly, leaving Pearl, Esther, and James as the

last ones on set.

James looked down at the silly-looking Esther and smiled. "Let's go. I'll treat you to a meal."

But Esther had already made plans with Pearl and clung to her. "But | have a date with Pearl. | promised to treat her."

James didn't even frown. "Then let's go together," he responded, showing his desire to spend twith Esther.

Pearl, ready to excuse herself but caught by Esther's hopeful look, agreed to join, turning their duo into a tfor the evening.

"| got sclues during my investigation.”

His casual tone emphasized his confidence, which prompted Esther to ask, "How did the investigation go?"

James sipped from a teacup. "Nothing much. | just know we can stop them from suing."

Esther widened her eyes. "Really?"

"Yeah, you can tell your dad to manage the company like he used to."

Esther was astounded. James hadn't communicated with Sanders Group, yet he managed to resolve everything perfectly.

Although she didn't doubt James's work capabilities, she found the situation amazing beyond words.
