Chapter 195
Louis smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Pearl, who was still unconscious.
“The chloroform is really strong. She’s still knocked out. Do you know who she is? Why wasn’t I aware there’s such a hottie in
town?”
Wilhem smirked. “We just got out of prison three days ago. How would we know?”
“This chick is smoking hot. Do you think we should…. have some fun with her before we do the job?” Louis’s excitement was obvious as he imagined what he wanted to do with her.
“Cut it out. Look at how pathetic you are.”
“But…”
Their voices were loud, and the rough ride on the road jolted Pearl awake. The surroundings and the tape over her mouth immediately made her realize she was being abducted.
However, these two criminals were either inexperienced or overly confident. They hadn’t tied her up, nor had they taken any of her belongings.
Pearl dared not make a sound. She watched as they chatted, realizing that they wouldn’t notice her subtle movements. So, discreetly sent a text message behind her back.

Without being able to see the screen, she relied on her instincts to send her location, unaware of the recipient’s identity. After sending that out, she put her phone away and pretended to be asleep again.
She had initially thought of fighting back but ultimately decided against it, considering her weakened state due to the fever.
When they reached their destination, Pearl pretended to wake up and looked at them with a confused expression. “Who…”
“Oh, our little hottie is awake. I was worried the bumpy road might have knocked you out,” Louis said with a perverted grin, attempting to touch her face. “I wonder what you did at your young age to have someone want to kidnap you. Such a shame.”
Pearl noticed that the two men had no idea who she was, which boosted her confidence.
Their guards were down because they didn’t recognize her, seeing her as merely a girl who had incurred the wrath of someone with money. If they had known her true identity, they wouldn’t have easily agreed to take this job.
“Who sent you?” Pearl inched backward, pretending to be weak.
“I’m not just going to spill the beans like that. But then again… why not? You’ll be dead tonight, so it doesn’t matter,” Louis said, enticed by her beauty and carelessly letting out more information. “Have you ever heard of the Flores family? One of the wealthiest in the city. Miss Abby sent us. I don’t know what you did that made her want to kill you.”
“Well, what’s stopping you?”
“We’re going to, but Miss Abby wants to kill you herself. She’s going to be here soon, so we’re still waiting.” Louis seemed to be amazed at how ruthless Abby was.
Pearl’s heart turned cold upon hearing this. Not only did Abby harbor a strong enough grudge against her to want her dead, but she also intended to carry out the act herself.
Wilhem, seemingly the smarter of the two, smacked Louis on the shoulder and admonished, “Alright, stop revealing anything else to her. Our client wants this kept under wraps.”
