Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1168

Finnegan went to Reina, the human trafficker, because his comrade was among the kidnapped women. Then, he ended up buying all three women to save them.

Richard finally understood Finnegan's earnest intention. "It's okay. I understand. You can't fix this big problem by yourself."

Suddenly, there was a loud banging on the door, which sounded terrifying.

"They're trying to break in. What do we do?" Esther had never been so scared in her life.

Pearl gently patted Esther's back to comfort her, then asked Richard, "How many people are outside?"

"Not too many. Around twenty to thirty."

Pearl thought for a moment. "Why don't we go outside and deal with them?"

Richard shook his head, thinking it was a good idea. "I don't think that's a good plan. Even if we deal with this group, more will just come later."

Pearl had another idea. "Wait, I have something that might work."

She showed them a bottle of medicine. "My mentor gave me this. It's supposed to make people fall asleep for a little while, but I haven't tried it yet."

Richard's eyes lit up. "That's brilliant. Finnegan, do you have anything we can spray it with?"

Finnegan found a sprayer that was used for mosquitoes, emptied and cleaned it, then brought it over. "This is all I've got, but it should work."

When the people outside heard Finnegan, they stopped.

Zayn yelled back, "Mister Finnegan, come out and bring Esther. We won't touch your house if you do."

Esther trembled when she heard that. It seemed they were after her.

Finnegan tried to calm her down. "Don't worry. I won't let them take you."

"But what if you get hurt?" Esther's lips paled, and her voice shook.

Finnegan found it amusing. "Are you worried about me?"
