Drunk and Daring I Kissed a Tycoon novel Chapter 447

Vespera couldn't quite process what she was hearing. She had pieced everything together, and her theories had been proven right. Like finishing a jigsaw puzzle, everything had clicked into place. And now, they were saying she was wrong?

She asked, "What do you mean?"

Calvert immediately clammed up, having already been scolded by Dominic. He didn't dare to say another word.

Vespera turned to Dominic with frustration. Why didn't he tell her? Did he think she wasn't smart enough, so it was pointless to tell her?

Dominic seemed to have read Vespera's mind. He smiled helplessly. He just didn't want her to get more involved. Things had already gotten dangerous enough. With her personality, if she realized there was more to the story, she would keep digging.

"I was going to explain everything after we left the island. Right now, getting off this island is the priority. Just because we bent the rules once doesn't mean we can keep doing it. If we hang around and keep pushing, we'll only be putting ourselves in more danger. It's meaningless," stated Dominic.

Vespera nodded and said, "I agree with this, but I still want the truth."

Dominic pushed aside the curtain in the carriage and glanced back toward the distant castle. He said, "During dinner last night, Calvert told me that Belinda was wearing a rubber mask. So, I deliberately spilled water on her and used it as an excuse to touch her hand. It wasn't a mask. Based on the state of the skin, it's a young person."

When Vespera heard that, a chill prickled down her spine. Young? That wasn't something one could fake. No matter how good one's skincare routine was, age left traces, especially on the hands. The state of the hand was sometimes more prominent than the face.

Calvert suddenly chimed in, "Vespera, you don't need to have doubts. There's only a quarter-inch height difference, and the scent was off. I wouldn't mix that up."

Vespera asked, "You can tell a quarter-inch difference in height?"

Calvert replied, "Of course. Can't you?"

Vespera looked over at Dominic and asked, "Can you?"

Dominic fell silent for a while, then admitted, "No. Calvert has been trained. Don't compare yourself to him."

Vespera still felt defeated. She hadn't noticed the state of the skin. She couldn't detect a quarter-inch difference in height. And she had thought she had it all figured out. The truth stung.

Dominic said, "If Calvert hadn't warned me about the rubber mask beforehand, I wouldn't have known that Mrs. Morgan was a substitute when I saw her. It isn't about being smart. I just had more information. You're already doing great."

Vespera gave him a weak smile. Watching from the side, Calvert thought that Dominic was great at comforting people. Meanwhile, Gerard, who had been silent until now, thought, "He only knows how to comfort Vespera. If it were anyone else, he would have poisoned them ten times over just from his tone alone."
