When Love Breaks by Jack

I furrowed my brows, “Is it serious?”

“Not serious, but because of this, I couldn’t protect Ramona in time.”

After hearing that, I knew Pearl wasn’t working alone.

But this time, she wasn’t pulling the strings from behind the scenes. Instead, she was getting her hands dirty, which I hadn’t anticipated.

I glared at Pearl, “I’ll have someone bring Dorothy over. Now let go of Ramona!”

“Do you really think you’re in a position to negotiate with me?”

Pearl looked smug and confident.

Ramona appeared weak and didn’t show any signs of resistance, completely under Pearl’s control.

I couldn’t help but threaten, “If you’ve poisoned Ramona again, I promise, you’ll pay dearly.”

Pearl wasn’t intimidated by my threat and even let go of Ramona intentionally.

Ramona’s stagger made my heart nearly leap out of my chest.

“Ramona!”

I glared at Pearl furiously, teeth clenched, “Dare to let go and see! I assure you, Dorothy won’t get off easy either!”

Pearl laughed mockingly. “All you have are empty threats.”

At this moment, I truly felt powerless.
