Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

“What’s wrong, Madam?”

The three put aside their emotions and rushed upstairs when they heard that.

Upon entering the room, they were shocked by the scene before them. Susan was on the floor with her

eyes closed, as if she had fainted after a sudden shock.

The nurse anxiously said, “After Missus Susan came back from her jog, she was unwinding with a

facial mask on when she suddenly fainted. I don’t know what happened!”

Pearl bent over to check her breathing. “Her breathing is weak.”

The nurse’s jaw dropped as she stuttered, “Wh… what? Weak… breathing?”

Pearl ignored her reaction and asked, “Have you called 911?”

“Yes, but we’re in a secluded location, so it will take the ambulance an hour to get here. What should

we do in the meantime?”

Richard’s eyes looked cold. “You were supposed to take care of her!”

The nurse shuddered and stood in silence with her head bowed.

Pearl squinted and asked, “Is Aunt Susan sick?”

Abby quickly replied, “She has a congenital heart disease, but she’s been pretty healthy recently. I

even talked to her yesterday, and she mentioned she stopped taking her meds for quite some time.

How could this happen?”

Pearl checked Susan and realized exercising might have triggered her heart disease, so she ran to the

medicine cabinet and took out the needles to inject her with medication.

She brought it into the room, and Abby looked terrified. “No, Pearl, you can’t just stab her with a

needle. You won’t be able to bear the consequences if things go south!”

Pearl glared at her. “I’ll take full responsibility.”

Abby looked worried on the surface, but she was ready to let Pearl take the blame.

“I said it’s going to be fine.”

“But…” Abby didn’t have anything more to say. She didn’t know Pearl knew how to give an injection.

The nurse was anxious when she saw Pearl insisting on giving the injection, so she said, “I’ve already

called the family doctor, and he’ll be here in a few minutes. Why don’t you…

Pearl glared at her and said with a cold expression, “She’s been unconscious for nearly five minutes

now, so we need to take emergency measures. If we delay and something happens to her, will you take

responsibility?

“T

The nurse was startled. She nodded and went quiet.

Richard knew Pearl was good with medicine, so he didn’t say anything and just watched her. He

always had a peculiar hope and trust in her.

Pearl began performing heart massages on Susan, and soon, Susan’s breathing returned to normal.

Pearl then took out the needle and injected her. Soon after that, Susan started groaning.

The nurse was overjoyed. “She’s awake! Missus Susan is awake!”

Pearl calmly said, “She’s not awake yet. She’s just reacting to the medication, but she still needs to go

to the hospital for treatment. Nonetheless, she’s out of the woods now, so we just need to wait for the

ambulance to

arrive.”

The nurse nodded quickly. “Yes, yes, yes. I informed Mister Dustan and the others, so they should be

home

soon.”

Right after she said that, there was a commotion at the door.
