Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1173

Based on Andrei's personality, he and his folks had set up traps, expecting to catch the group. Many would be lying in wait for them.

Pearl was about to speak, but Finnegan, struggling to stay conscious, weakly interjected, "Don't go a different route."

"Why not?" Esther was confused.

"Even if there might be ambushes along the way, other paths could be just as dangerous. Plus, we're not sure if they actually lead out of here."

"That's a good point."

Richard's expression changed. "I don't think it's that simple."

"Why do you say that?"

"Have you seen anyone chasing us?"

Esther shook her head. "No."

"It means they have something bigger for us."

They had no idea what the stupid villagers might do, but they felt danger looming.

To avoid any traps, Pearl slowed down the car for a better look. Suddenly, she hit the brakes hard, causing everyone to jerk forward.

"Why did we stop?"

"Look over there."
