Chapter 1222
Sandy knew the rift between them was about her having had abortions before, and he couldn’t accept that fact.
She bit her fingernail as she thought, ‘He can “accept” a woman like Pearl, so why can’t he accept me? Besides, he should suspect Pearl for today’s incident, right? After all. Pearl has done something like this to frame other people before. So, it makes sense to pin the blame on her.’
Meanwhile…
Tanner asked the security to pull out the surveillance footage on the corridor to investigate the incident about Sandy. The footage was fixed on the appearance of the three men after they left, and he asked his bodyguard to check their identities.
When Tanner came out of the monitoring room, he pulled his phone and saw there were a few unread messages. He frowned deeply and deleted all of them without checking on them.
Then, another message came through. Pearl did not dare to go home because of the marks around her neck. She stayed temporarily in a hotel and asked her assistant to buy her clothes for her to change. After taking her shower, the doorbell rang. She became alert and asked, “Who is it?”
“Miss, I’m sorry to disturb you, but our hotel has a complimentary champagne event for all single luxury suites.”
It was the voice of a female attendant.
Thank you, but I don’t need it,” Pearl said. The female attendant persisted and continued. “But the champagne is already here. It’s free of charge, so you should take it.”
Pearl opened the door and saw the female attendant holding a bottle of champagne in her hand. Just when she was about to take the champagne from her, a hand appeared out of nowhere and grabbed her wrist.
Her shoulders trembled, and then Tanner appeared in front of her. Her heart skipped a beat as Tanner said to the female attendant , “You’re dismissed.”
The female attendant nodded and left. Pearl tried to pull her hand out of his grip but to no avail. Tanner went closer to her and asked, “Passion is a hotel under the Hannigans. I’m sure you know about that, right?”
