Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1171

Pearl stomped on the man's chest and wrapped her leg around him.

The man cried out in pain. "Please, miss, I didn't mean to do this. Our leader made us do it. Let me go, it hurts. Please, stop."

"Be quiet!"

The man's face twisted in pain, but he stopped yelling.

Andrei looked on, worried. He hadn't expected his men to falter so easily. Still, he didn’t give up hope and kept looking around.

Suddenly, arrows whizzed by, hitting each of his men.

"Watch out, it’s an ambush!" Pearl shouted, and everyone quickly ducked for cover.

Esther was a bit slow to react and saw an arrow heading straight for her. Just then, someone stepped in front of her, taking the arrow hit.

She heard a groan as Finnegan slumped over her. "Oh no, Finnegan!"

The man turned pale as Esther’s eyes filled with tears. "Why did you jump in front of it?"

"What would happen if I didn't?" Trying to lighten the mood, Finnegan wiped her tears. "Hey, don’t cry. You don’t look good when you cry."
