Chapter 662
Pearl was absolutely right; Esther and Mobius had no part in this situation, and Owen remained oblivious to their backgrounds. Given that Owen had already broken his father’s rules by coming out secretly, he reluctantly agreed, “Alright, you have my word. Just come with me.”
He signaled his men to capture Pearl while leaving Esther and Mobius alone.
Pearl slightly shifted her b*dy to evade their grasp. “Don’t touch me. I can walk.”
Esther, overwhelmed by anxiety, was on the verge of tears. “Pearl, don’t go with them!”
Pearl maintained an indifferent expression and responded, “It’s none of your concern where I’m going.” With that, she turned away, locking eyes briefly with Mobius.
Owen’s patience wore thin as they hesitated to part. He finally shouted, “Alright, let’s go! Stop wasting time.”
A black car quickly pulled up and stopped in front of them. Owen instructed his men to push Pearl into the car before he followed suit. Then, the car sped away, leaving behind a trail of dust.
“What do we do now, Mobius? They took Pearl away!” Esther was beside herself. She had traveled a considerable distance to meet Pearl and ended up witnessing her being kidnapped.
“Don’t worry,” Mobius tried to comfort her and managed a gentle smile. “Pearl can take care of herself. We should tell Rick about this now.”
Esther was stunned. “Is Richard here in Mernaut too?”
“Yeah, Pearl mouthed something to me earlier, saying that I should go to Richard.”
Without hesitation, Esther smacked Mobius lightly. “Let’s go. If we’re late, that pervert might do something to Pearl!”
Mobius nodded and joined Esther in the car. He quickly dialed Richard’s number.
Richard picked it up, sounding tired. “What is it, Mobius?”
“Rick, Pearl’s in trouble!”
Richard’s tiredness swiftly disappeared when he heard of Pearl’s name. “What did you say?” “Someone took Pearl away at the red–light district. She mentioned it’s the Adley family…”
At that point, Richard understood what was going on. He took a deep breath, trying to control his anger. “Alright, return immediately and stay in the hotel.”
“Okay.”
They hung up after a brief conversation.
Richard’s expression darkened. He grabbed his coat and headed out, determined to confront Anthony and find out what his son intended to do.

Thankfully, Simon had always forced her to ingest various self–made supplements, claiming they could improve her immunity. Otherwise, she would have likely lost consciousness by now. Nonetheless, they had still tied up her limbs, leaving her entirely at their mercy.
