Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 1478

Joelle grabbed her skirt, feeling a bit worried. If that was true, did it mean Darius might...?

She didn't want to think about it, but the idea grew in her mind, and she started feeling afraid.

When Joelle looked up, she realized the cab was going somewhere unfamiliar. She saw the driver smiling maliciously in the rearview mirror. Getting into a cab late at night wasn't safe, and Joelle started feeling terrified.

If she had gotten into Dante's car, she would be fine now. She regretted it a little and anxiously took out her phone to make a call, but the driver seemed to notice and suddenly slammed on the brakes.

Joelle's head hit the headrest in front of her, and when she looked up, her phone was gone. The driver was holding it and smiling menacingly.

"Are you trying to call the police or a friend?" he taunted.

"Who are you? Why are you doing this?"

The man looked her over lustfully. "Who I am or why I'm doing this doesn't matter. You're very pretty. I love pretty girls."

Joelle forced herself to stay calm. "Do you know who I am?"

Joelle could feel how strong he was and knew she couldn't overpower him, so she tried to think of something.

Suddenly, she felt a rod and used it to hit the man's head.

Blood oozed from his head, and his eyes went red. Instead of retreating, he became even more vicious. "You're still fighting back? Fine. I just wanted to show you some love, but now I'm not going to hold back!"

Joelle pushed him away and ran toward the road.
