Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1174

"You seem pretty sure of yourself, Mister Andrei. We'll see who's going to be in trouble."

Pearl glanced sideways, and suddenly, about twelve strong-looking men in black appeared. "Grab them," she commanded.

The men rushed toward Andrei at her command.

Andrei, caught off guard by Pearl's backup, turned pale. "Where did these guys come from?"

"I left a trail on purpose. They've been tracking us for a few days, and now they've found us," Pearl said with a smirk. "Now it's your turn to face the music."

Aside from looking much stronger, the men outnumbered Andrei's group, causing Andrei to plead, "This is all a big misunderstanding. I just came here to see you off."

Esther burst out laughing.

"You're a terrible liar." Pearl raised her brows. "If you were really just seeing me off, you'd act like it."

Frantically, Andrei pulled out some hundred-dollar bills. "Will this cover it? It's all I have." Although it hurt him to part with the money, he thought it was worth it to save his skin.

Pearl instructed her men to take the money and then tossed it to the ground. "Who do you think you're trying to bribe? Money isn't what I want."

Andrei's heart ached to see his money thrown away like that.

Pearl then pointed at the mountains. "I want you to free all the people you've abducted."
