The man was slightly stunned, seeing the young lady who was as obedient as a little rabbit suddenly staring at him fiercely. Hefelt a strange thumping in his chest.

"What are you going to do?" he asked.“Nothing,” Pearl said, though she cracked her knuckles and walked toward him.

"You better not touch me. I'm—" The man almost revealed his identity in his panic, but he quickly stopped himself and turnedpale.

Pearl paused, watching the man's rapidly changing expressions. "Who did you say you were?""I'm nobody. Fine, what do you want?" he finally conceded.

It was too late, as Pearl stepped forward and grabbed his wrist. Only then did he realize that her grip, which had been gentle halfan hour ago, was now tight and constricting.

"You're under my control, and it's just the two of us here." Pearl shrugged, seemingly unconcerned. "Why do you think you canboss me around?"

The man sneered. "Listen, there are security mechanisms in this warehouse..."
