Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 663

Pearl mustered her strength to endure and observed their surroundings carefully while mentally mapping out the routes they had taken.

After some time, the car came to a gradual stop, prompting Pearl to squint and look around. Her heart sank when she recognized the distinctive building at the entrance—it was the Adley family's residence.

Owen sure was bold by bringing her back to his house once again.

With a sudden bang, the car door swung open. Pearl promptly feigned unconsciousness as two people carried her away.

The paths grew darker as they advanced. Concealing her awareness, Pearl discreetly opened her eyes and observed her surroundings as they carried her to a small, concealed door.

Someone awaited their arrival by the entrance, which added to the secrecy of the place.

The room's dimly lit interior felt suffocating. Pearl couldn't help but notice the stark difference from the previous location; this wasn't the path to the main hall.

Curiosity piqued, she wondered where Owen was taking her as they brought her to yet another, even more concealed, door. It would have gone unnoticed if one didn't scrutinize it closely.

A sense of foreboding gripped her as she pieced the clues together.

Narrowing her eyes, Pearl surveyed the room once more. As expected, it was a cellar. Shock replaced her calm facade, and she failed to notice Owen's approach.

Suddenly, he slapped her across the face and let out a sinister laugh. "Alright, stop pretending. You'll wake up soon if you don't smell that knockout incense."

Pearl's heart skipped a beat. It was useless to keep on pretending, so she slowly opened her eyes.

"Do you know why I didn't search your body, Miss Pearl?" Owen's gaze was filled with greed as he looked at her, his intentions clear.

"Why?" Pearl intentionally wore a helpless and frightened look.

Her weakness convinced Owen. "It's because I installed a signal-blocking device. No one will hear you down here."

"So, what do you want?" Although Pearl looked terrified, she found this cunning man disgusting.

"I'll drop the act since you're here. Give me back my machete, Miss Pearl. And... spend one night with me. I'll let you go then. What do you say?" Owen kept his lecherous grin, a disgusting sight.

'Machete?'

Pearl got distracted and realized she had forgotten about the machete in Zinedine's club…

"The machete... I don't know where it is." Pearl acted dumb.

"Quit pretending, I heard everything. You wanted to give that machete to Mister Zinedine, didn't you?"

Jenny answered the call quickly, eagerly agreeing to come over, relishing the opportunity to witness Pearl's misery.

Half an hour later, Jenny arrived at the cellar.

She was filled with joy upon seeing Pearl on the floor, her hands bound. Her voice turned sharp as she mocked Pearl, "Well, well, isn't this Pearl? Tied up so miserably?"

Pearl smiled and ignored Jenny's taunts, making her infuriated.

Jenny squatted down to look at Pearl, suppressing the urge to slap her. Instead, she pinched Pearl's chin harshly while saying in a gentle tone, "Hey, why so arrogant now that you're tied up? I feel so sorry for you, Pearl."

Pearl simply turned her affectionate, tearful eyes to Owen.

That glance moved Owen's heart, and he couldn't bear to see Pearl in such a state. He forcefully pulled Jenny aside. "I didn't ask you to come here and torment Pearl. I've got some questions for you."

Jenny's jealousy drove her mad, wondering how Pearl could bewitch all the men around her. Owen still took Pearl's side even though Pearl had done that kind of thing.

Despite her anger, Jenny had to pretend and act docile in Owen's presence. "Of course, go ahead and ask your questions. I just hope you won't be fooled by her."

Certainly, she was very willing as long as Pearl was punished.
