Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 992

"How dare you! Even at death's door, you're still acting tough. Let's see if you're lucky or just all talk." Winona was pissed, her chest heaving.

"You'll find out soon enough if I'm just all talk." Richard's eyes were filled with determination.

"Anyway, I've locked you guys in here. Let's see what you can do now," Winona sneered, standing with her arms crossed.

"Don't celebrate too soon," Richard shot back, his words momentarily affecting her before she shrugged them off.

"I used to have feelings for you, Richard, but not anymore. Since you chose to be with her, both of you have to deal with the pain and torment I've suffered." She laughed, her eyes filled with hostility.

Suddenly, thunder rumbled overhead, drawing Winona's attention to the cloudy sky.

"It looks like heavy rain is coming. I won't waste any more time here with you. Enjoy yourselves," she remarked before driving off in her sports car.

As Winona disappeared from view, Richard and Pearl exchanged a meaningful glance, silently communicating their plan.

Pearl tugged at Richard's sleeve. "What's the plan?"

"Don't worry. We've got this." Richard reassured her, about to explain when Pearl rolled her eyes.
