Chapter 48


    Pearl posted all the evidence on the Inte, and everyone was talking about it.


    In the end, Abby’s deeds were confirmed, and her failed attempts to harm Pearl became the hottest top


    ic of the year. As the youngdy of Flores Firms, this incident made thepany’s shares plummet rap


    idly.


    Abby first thought Pearl was just guessing about what she did, but Pearl had real proof.


    And so, her perfect image, which she had worked so hard to build, was now destroyed. Plus, she could

    She never thought Abby could be so cruel, even though she’d known her since Abby was a baby.

    Was Pearl such a pushover?


    Feeling awkward, Susan sighed and said slowly, “I’m begging you, please?”
