Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon

Chapter 447

Vespera couldn't quite process what she was hearing. She had pieced everything together, and her theories had

been proven right. Like finishing a jigsaw puzzle, everything had clicked into place. And now, they were saying

she was wrong?

She asked, "What do you mean?"

Calvert immediately clammed up, having already been scolded by Dominic. He didn't dare to say another word.

Vespera turned to Dominic with frustration. Why didn't he tell her? Did he think she wasn't smart enough, so it

was pointless to tell her?

Dominic seemed to have read Vespera's mind. He smiled helplessly. He just didn't want her to get more involved.

Things had already gotten dangerous enough. With her personality, if she realized there was more to the story,

she would keep digging.

"I was going to explain everything after we left the island. Right now, getting off this island is the priority. Just

because we bent the rules once doesn't mean we can keep doing it. If we hang around and keep pushing, we'll

only be putting ourselves in more danger. It's meaningless," stated Dominic.

Vespera nodded and said, "I agree with this, but I still want the truth."

Dominic pushed aside the curtain in the carriage and glanced back toward the distant castle. He said, "During

dinner last night, Calvert toldthat Belinda was wearing a rubber mask. So, | deliberately spilled water on her

and used it as an excuse to touch her hand. It wasn't a mask. Based on the state of the skin, it's a young

person."

When Vespera heard that, a chill prickled down her spine. Young? That wasn't something one could fake. No

matter how good one's skincare routine was, age left traces, especially on the hands. The state of the hand was

sometimes more prominent than the face.

Calvert suddenly chimed in, "Vespera, you don't need to have doubts. There's only a quarter-inch height

difference, and the scent was off. | wouldn't mix that up."

Vespera asked, "You can tell a quarter-inch difference in height?"

Calvert replied, "Of course. Can't you?"

Vespera looked over at Dominic and asked, "Can you?"

Dominic fell silent for a while, then admitted, "No. Calvert has been trained. Don't compare yourself to him."

Vespera still felt defeated. She hadn't noticed the state of the skin. She couldn't detect a quarter-inch difference

in height. And she had thought she had it all figured out. The truth stung.

Dominic said, "If Calvert hadn't warnedabout the rubber mask beforehand, | wouldn't have known that Mrs.

Morgan was a substitute when | saw her. It isn't about being smart. | just had more information. You're already

doing great."

Vespera gave him a weak smile. Watching from the side, Calvert thought that Dominic was great at comforting

people. Meanwhile, Gerard, who had been silent until now, thought, "He only knows how to comfort Vespera. If it

were anyone else, he would have poisoned them ten times over just from his tone alone."

Vespera quickly regained her composure. Her father used to say that mistakes weren't terrifying because

humans weren't machines. What mattered was whether one fixed them to grow stronger.

"If this happens again, I'll figure it out before you do," said Vespera.

Dominic was rendered speechless. He expected her to depend on him, but instead, she looked like a hawk ready

to swoop down on her next target. How did her desire to win becmore intense?

Vespera turned to Calvert and said, "Calvert, if that woman shows up again, will you still be able to recognize

her?"

Calvert answered honestly, "No. If the environment changes, the temperature and scent will change too. Relying

on height and build isn't enough, as they can be modified or imitated."

As Vespera listened, she recalled something. Last night, when Belinda had tried to touch Dominic's chest,

Vespera had stepped in. Vespera had met Belinda's eyes for a second, and she had felt something familiar. s

Vespera asked, "Do you guys think that maybe she's someone we know? | mean, someone from Halewick."

Dominic questioned, "Why do you think that?"

Calvert and Gerard both looked puzzled, too. Vespera explained about the moment she had sensed something

familiar in Belinda's gaze.

"A familiar face who's involved with that cult... The only person that comes to mind is Mrs. Locke, but she isn't

young," said Gerard.

"What about Tina? She's young. She's younger than Vespera," guessed Calvert.

Vespera shook her head. She said, "It isn't her. Although Tina's age matches, she's too impulsive. She wouldn't

have let us leave so easily."

Dominic cut in, "It isn't either of them. | know their whereabouts."

Everyone fell silent. Eventually, they arrived back at the villa where they had changed clothes the day before.

They changed back to their own clothes, then boarded the carriage and headed to the helipad.

When Vespera entered the carriage again, she noticed that the coachman had

changed. Now, it was a young man.

Calvert stopped in his tracks and

glanced around, but he didn't see anyone suspicious. Just as he was about to step forward and

investigate, Gerard, who was in

The carriage moved forward. In the carriage behind them, Dominic and Vance were sitting. They arrived on the

island together and changed clothes in the previous villa. This time, Evelyn sat with them.

As soon as Evelyn got in, she wrapped her arms around Vespera's and started

chatting like nothing had ever happened. She even invited Vespera to her wedding.
