Chapter 599
Pearl narrowed her eyes and discreetly assessed the man’s strength, feeling frustrated. She hadn’t eaten all day, so her strength was definitely compromised.
“You can take me away.”
Pearl’s words left the man standing there, bewildered by her apparent lack of resistance. Her attitude seemed strange to him.
“I’m here to take you away,” the man said, confused by her behavior. He had been prepared for resistance but didn’t expect her to offer none!
“I know.” Pearl extended her hand impatiently.
“Isn’t this script a bit off? You should be saying, “Who are you? Why are you taking me? I’ll never go with you,‘ and then we struggle or something.”
The man looked dumbfounded. He had been warned that Pearl was highly skilled and to handle her with care, but he never expected her to give in so easily! With no chance to display his abilities, the man couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
Observing him as
resist? You’re here stood there blankly, Pearl couldn’t help but feel disdainful. “Why would I
resist? You’re here to capture me, not to kill me. We can talk on the way. Now, please just take me away. If the Coopers show up, neither of us can leave.”
“What is there to talk about? I’m here to capture you!” The man seemed to lose his temper and rushed forward to grab Pearl’s arm, intending to carry her.
Pearl quickly shook off his hand and took a few steps back. “No, no, no. I can walk by myself. You can lead the way.”
The man furrowed his brow, torn between annoyance and confusion. Completing this mission so easily made him wonder if something was off..
However, the orders he received were straightforward: bring the person back. As for how to do it, it didn’t really matter.
Besides, he was explicitly told not to hurt her. If he used force and the crazy woman in front of him suddenly changed her mind, they could end up in a nasty altercation, which would be a losing proposition.
The man nodded and led the way. They quickly got into a nearby van next and drove away.
Pearl’s ring briefly lit up and then quickly dimmed again.
Today was a big day for Sean and Pearl, a day Sean had been eagerly waiting for nearly three
years.
From the very beginning, he had taken a special interest in this witty and charming woman. Although he held a deep affection for her, he couldn’t afford to display them openly to avoid ridicule from Richard.
However, to his surprise, Richard had managed to capture Pearl’s heart quickly. Their feelings had quickly grown, allowing Sean to let his guard down.
Unexpectedly… Richard had lost his feelings for Pearl, and Sean had suddenly become the Coopers‘ eldest son. It seemed like luck was on his side.
Sean was thrilled today. He had finally surpassed Richard in one aspect. Initially, he had intended to get drunk, but he remembered that Pearl didn’t like heavy drinks or sloppy men. So he had a few drinks, raised toasts, and retreated to the bedroom.
As he stumbled into the bedroom, he suddenly noticed several maids who had been guarding the door lying unconscious on the floor. A bad feeling washed over him.
He forcefully pushed the door open and found a messy room with scattered clothing and the grand tiara. But most shockingly, the room was empty.
Anger ignited in his eyes. He hadn’t expected that Pearl would manage to escape their marriage even under the watchful eyes of so many people,
Sean was rather disappointed, but he understood that this was typical of Pearl. He didn’t feel too segretful.
After all, he had only been testing whether she truly wanted to marry him, and he respected. her decision.
