Chapter 506

Pearl deftly maneuvered her b*dy to dodge Henry’s attack and managed to grip his wrists. With a bit ofstrength, she pushed him backward, but he struggled to regain his balance. novelbin

Henry smirked, triumphant that he had avoided being subdued so easily.

Before Pearl could breathe a sigh of relief, a sudden wave of weakness washed over her. She found

herself unable to summon her strength.

“What kind of drug did you give me this time?” she demanded, frustration in her voice.

Henry sneered, “Go to hell with the secret since you don’t know…” He had initially contemplated

taking liberties with Pearl, but now he found her defiance irksome, so he decided it was best to kill her

promptly.

Drawing a dagger from his person, Henry advanced toward Pearl slowly. Just as he was about to

strike, there was a commotion outside.

Henry was displeased that someone was going to disrupt his plans. He threw a quick glance toward the

door before resuming his efforts to kill Pearl.

However, the door rattled, as if someone had kicked it, and it started to give way.

“Looks like someone’s here for you, Pearl. Let’s guess, is it your sweetheart? Wouldn’t it be thrilling to

die in front of him?” Henry mused with a malicious grin. “And will he still love you if your face is

ruined?”

Pearl glared at him with disdain. “Do as you please, f*cking bastard!”

Henry’s smile faded. “Very well. I’ll grant your wish, since you’re so eager to embrace death.” Raising

his dagger, he aimed to strike Pearl in the shoulders.

Just then, someone managed to force the door open. The sudden burst of light caused Henry to miss

his target, and his dagger struck a chair instead.

As he prepared for another attack, Richard stormed into the room. He quickly grabbed a plate from the

table and smashed it onto Henry, who screamed in pain as his eyes were injured, and he dropped his

dagger.

Richard helped Pearl sit in a nearby chair, though he did so without gentleness, a grudge apparent in

his actions.

Pearl quickly understood the source of his anger. She wondered why he was being so petty, given that

she had merely shared a meal with someone else.

Richard didn’t leave with Pearl. Instead, he retrieved the fallen dagger from the floor and approached

Henry, who was writhing and wailing.

“Planning to kill Pearl, were you?” Richard asked in a chilling tone, playing with the dagger, which

gleamed ominously in the dim light.

Even if Henry had been fearless before, he couldn’t find the words now. Struck dumb with deep fear,

he could only look up in terror as Richard loomed over him.

“Don’t kill me,” Henry pleaded, his voice trembling. It had been far beyond his expectations that Richard

would arrive at the restaurant so quickly.

Initially, Henry had intended to threaten the most popular man in Enswood to gauge his capabilities.

But now…

“You’re tough, right?” Richard’s voice was icy and bloodthirsty.
