Chillingworth's suspicions about Dimmesdale being Pearl's father are first aroused during a conversation where he observes Dimmesdale's physical and emotional reaction to Pearl and Hester. Dimmesdale's guilt and anguish become apparent, particularly when he sees Pearl and interacts with Hester, revealing a deeper connection to them. Additionally, Chillingworth notices the minister's deteriorating health and inner turmoil, which further convinces him that Dimmesdale harbors a secret related to Hester and Pearl.
