Chapter 548
“Pearl is fascinating. She even set off fireworks to celebrate before her death.” Jenny chuckled, wearing a scornful expression.
Pearl wasn’t a good swimmer, and jumping into the rapidly rising tide meant she was
essentially signing her own death warrant.
Thinking of this, Richard closed his eyes in agony and jumped into the sea while everyone was enjoying the fireworks!
Jenny was stunned. “Richard!”
Hugo watched Jenny rush to the shore after Richard jumped into the sea. The latter never resurfaced again.
Jenny looked pained, and his jealousy was almost driving him crazy. Richard got what he deserved!
But before they could fully process the tragic fate of the two who had jumped into the sea, they suddenly heard the thunderous sound of approaching footsteps.
“Oh no, those two flares Pearl set off were distress signals! We need to get out of here!” Hugo’s face turned pale.
“Is Evil Spirits really that terrifying?” Jenny had no clue and thought Hugo was overreacting. She was still immersed in her grief. If Richard had died, her dreams of becoming Missus Waldorf would have been shattered.
Hugo clenched his teeth and grabbed Jenny by the collar, intending to drag her away.

Jenny pushed him away forcefully. “Leave me alone! I’m

for a long time! Can‘ Do you know that I’m the only one who truly cares about you?!”
Jenny was taken aback momentarily, tears welling in her eyes. “But I really do-”
Hugo’s right hand suddenly struck her neck, and Jenny went limp and collapsed into his arms. “Everyone, evacuate now!”
Upon receiving the command, they immediately scattered and fled into the distance.
By the time the members of Evil Spirits arrived, everyone had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a scene of chaos.
“Boss…”
