Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1134

Howard and Pearl looked at the door, and the pill Howard was holding dropped to the floor.

Pearl couldn't hide her smirk. She didn't expect Wayne to arrive so quickly and at the perfect moment.

Seeing everything was under control, Wayne stood aside.

Richard entered slowly, scanning the room before his eyes landed on Pearl. His intense look turned into a frown, signaling trouble. "I can't believe you'd do something like this, Mister Howard."

Howard, feeling safe in his own house surrounded by his own security measures, was not immediately concerned.

"Did you think the few useless men outside could stop us?"

Howard's confidence wavered. "What did you do to them?"

"I took care of them. They weren't a challenge."

Despite the turn of events, Howard remained defiant. "You're in my house. Aren't you worried about what I might do to her?"

Realizing Pearl was close by, Howard thought about taking her as a hostage.

"What can you possibly do to me?"

Before Howard could make his move, Pearl stood up, free from her ropes, looking at him with a smirk. "Did you really think I'm that weak?"

Pearl interrupted, "I'm sorry, I've turned your people around."

Howard's eyes went wide. "Daisy? No way. I drugged her so she wouldn't listen to you."

Daisy, thin yet noticeable, got up from the corner. "Please, stop this. I've tried to stop you all these years but never could. You never listened to me. As my mentor, I'm going to ask you one more time, hoping you'll change."

Howard, now furious, threatened, "I'm warning you, Daisy, I won't give you the antidote!"

Pearl looked at him with pity. "No need for that, Mister Howard. I can make the antidote myself."

Realizing his defeat and the extent of his downfall, Howard collapsed to the floor.
