Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 111

After giving it some thought, Pearl decided to drive to Dark Bar. However, finding the woman proved challenging due to the glittering lights and the crowd inside the bar.

With the help of her phone’s location tracking, Pearl eventually found the woman nearby. To her surprise, the woman had transformed from her previous studious appearance into a maid costume, now serving and drinking with the bar’s patrons.

So… this was the same young woman?

Pearl felt very sorry for the woman’s predicament. The woman was forced into this situation, compelled to serve drinks and cater to the guests.

Moreover, Pearl felt a personal connection to her. She remembered her own father’s demise years ago when the family couldn’t afford his treatment. She had watched him pass away in a hospital bed, igniting her determination to earn money and become excellent to protect her loved ones.

Approaching the young woman, Pearl grabbed her arm, prompting her to stand up.

“It’s you…” The woman widened her eyes.

“Renee, is she your friend?” a drunk man, captivated by Pearl’s beauty, inquired.

Renee O’Connor immediately shook her head, fearful that the man might take advantage of Pearl. “No, I

don’t know her. I think she’s mistaken.”

“Leave this place. You should be preparing for your college entrance exams. Do you understand?” Pearl’s

tone was stern and commanding.

“Hey, it looks like you guys do know each other. Come on, Renee’s friend is our friend. Let’s have a drink, babe.” The man reached for Pearl’s waist, but Pearl forcefully pinched his wrist and yanked his arm down.

“Ah!”

Pearl had actually dislocated his arm.
