“Aren’t you feeling rather proud and superior, Pearl? Why are you pretending to be weak now? How
disgusting!” Abby grabbed a handful of Pearl’s hair and yanked her forcefully. “Listen closely. This is
what you deserve. A person like you should
rot in hell!”
The pain was so intense that Pearl almost shed tears. “Abby, you…”
“Enough! Every time you say my name, it makes me want to kill you even more.” Abby took a sharp
dagger from her pocket and waved it menacingly in front of Pearl. “I’ve coated this blade with poison,
and just a single cut can kill you. Do you want to

Hanzel standing there.
“It’s you, Abby!”
Hanzel, having received Pearl’s distress signal, postponed the shoot and rushed to the scene. He had
arrived quickly but was taken aback to find that it was the obedient-looking Abby who had kidnapped
Pearl.
“What’s wrong? Are you very surprised to see me?” Abby was now too impatient to keep up the
pretense. Indifferently and impatiently, she admitted, “It’s how I was supposed to be.”
Hanzel glanced around and found two menacing-looking men in the distance. They looked like they
knew some martial arts. Furthermore, Abby was armed with a dagger. Charging recklessly could get
Pearl hurt, so he hesitated to make a move.
Pearl, seeing that it was Hanzel, experienced an inexplicable sense of disappointment for some

urged her to say, “Just go, Hanzel. Don’t stay here. It’s dangerous.”
“Is there anything more dangerous than you being kidnapped, Pearl?” Hanzel looked at Pearl and
asked seriously.
“That’s enough. I don’t have time to listen to you discuss which is more dangerous.” Squatting down,
Abby held the dagger close to Pearl’s face and played with it. “I’m curious to see what’s so enchanting
about your pretty face that it could seduce so many men. What will you do if your face is ruined?”
The dagger neared Pearl’s face, its chilling gleam threatening.

Abby’s sudden fall gave Pearl a chance to stand up and shake off the rope, having secretly cut it
earlier.
“Our boss is hurt. Hurry! Don’t let that woman escape!”
Louis and Wilhem panicked as they realized Pearl was about to make a run for it. They moved to
intercept her.
But Hanzel knew nothing about martial arts, and Pearl was still weak. They couldn’t defeat the
gangsters at all.
Seeing Pearl’s frailty, Hanzel took the blows for her, shielding her with his own body. But the two men
didn’t go easy on Hanzel and gave him a barrage of blows that left him reeling and on the verge of
losing consciousness.
Lying atop Pearl, Hanzel struggled to speak between labored breaths. “Be careful, Pearl… Watch out…
Don’t let them bully
you…”
