Chapter 348: The Killing Intent Arises

"Yusuf, where's the pearl?" After the crowd dispersed, Everest took advantage of Rachel's inattention to tug at Yusuf and asked him quietly.

"Grandpa, be careful of the walls that have ears, don't wrongly accuse me!" Yusuf was startled, aware that amidst the assembly of experts present, it was likely someone could be eavesdropping. If others overheard their conversation, it could really cause trouble.

In fact, he had already fallen under the suspicion of Tyler. Tyler had been observing Yusuf's expressions and demeanor covertly but had yet to detect any signs.

"Was it you who did it?" Rachel also approached and asked in a low voice.

"My dear sister, why are you joining in the fuss? What do you mean by it was me?" Yusuf responded with a mix of laughter and helplessness, realizing that now both people close to him harbored suspicions.

"Hehe, if it was your doing, I can only say it was well done. If not, then forget about it!" Rachel spoke with a light smile.
