Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 988

Richard realized he had fallen for Sean's trap and eyed him warily.

"Alright, we'll have to take your word for it for now." Sean patted Hanzel's shoulder, his use of "for now" meant he didn't believe

Richard.

Richard's expression darkened. He knew Sean was trying to outsmart him.

Sensing tension rising, Pearl intervened to defuse the situation. "There's nothing suspicious here. Mobius sped up and caused the

accident."

"Pearl, | had feelings for you before, so | respect you, but it's best you stay out of our family matters," Sean stated firmly, though

he softened it with a smile. "You don't need to be involved in this, okay?"

The Sean who made everyone uncomfortable was back, leaving Pearl with a sinking feeling in her stomach.

"I believe we should seek justice for Mobius." Hanzel, holding the box of ashes, glared with hatred and determination. "I will find

out who caused all this no matter what it takes."

"Go ahead then." Richard knew that they had made up their mind, so he didn't stop them. "But let's arrange Mobius's funeral first."

"Of course. He's not just your brother, he's ours too. We'll give him a grand send-off," Sean declared coldly, his implication clear.

"There's no point talking if you've made up your mind." With that, Richard took Pearl's hand and left.

After watching them leave, Hanzel turned to Sean. "Why are you so harsh with Richard? What's wrong? Do you still hate him?"

"This has nothing to do with our past. It's about Mobius's death," Sean deflected, not wanting to reveal his suspicions to Hanzel.

Hanzel wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed. He was dating Pearl's friend, so if he shared Sean's plan with his girlfriend, and she in

turn told Pearl, it would disrupt his investigation.

Sean smiled reassuringly, patting Hanzel's shoulder. "Don't overthink it. Focus on helping with the funeral arrangements." He would

handle the rest.

Though Hanzel didn't fully grasp the situation, he sensed the deep-seated animosity between his brothers.

"How do you think Mobius died? He loved racing and was always cautious. It doesn't make sense for him to speed up randomly,"

Hanzel pondered.

Sean avoided the question. "lI wonder too," he replied cryptically. "It's strange. Richard was always meticulous, so how could he

overlook this?"

He cursed inwardly, entertaining the possibility that Richard might have intentionally ignored things.
