Chapter 16
“Mobius, call the police. Leave the rest to me.”
Richard recalled the scene of Pearl smashing a wine bottle on that man’s head the other day and soon calmed down. She surely would not let herself be easily hurt.
“Okay, Rick ”
Mobius knew that Richard had always been swift and decisive. Although he blamed Pearl for worrying others, he nodded and did as instructed.
Richard drove to Mobius’s university and retrieved the surveillance footage from around the back entrance of the university. At five in the evening, he finally found Pearl in the footage. She had entered a shop and came back out with a black plastic bag before heading toward a public restroom, and there was a figure in blue following her from behind.
It meant that the last place she had been was the restroom.
Richard’s eyes turned dull and rushed toward that place with his men. It was now six, so there were very few passersby. When they approached, they could hear a woman’s grim laughter.
“Ha! Ha! Ha! Why didn’t you resist? You were quite strong earlier and were hitting me over and over again. You shameless woman. How dare you seduce Hanzel! I’ll slap you!”
When Richard heard Hanzel’s name, he knew that the woman inside was one of Hanzel’s fans.
“Mmph!”
Richard heard a woman’s muffled grunt. Based on the voices, he guessed that there were roughly three people, including men and a woman. He knew what to do.
“Get in there.”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
When the b*dyguards heard his order, they kicked open the door.
The woman's laughter stopped. When she saw Richard, she became annoyed. "Who the hell are you? How dare you ruin my fun!"
He glanced at her with a commanding presence. "How dare you touch someone under the Waldorf family's care.
When the Lackeys behind the woman felt Richard's commanding presence, they said in trembling voices, "Umm... That's the eldest Waldorf brother, Richard Waldorf!"
Anyone who watched the news would instantly recognize Richard as the man who was always talked about on the news, and he now had a group of sturdy b*dyguards with him. In comparison, the woman's two lackeys appeared weak and thin.
Richard raised his hand. His assistant understood and instructed the b*dyguards to subdue the three people. When the crazy woman saw this scene, she immediately regained her wits. She had captured Pearl, never expecting to face such consequences. "I'm sorry, Mister Richard. I...I acted impulsively..."
Richard said in an aloof and emotionless tone, "You will be hearing from our lawyers."
The lackeys immediately got on their knees. "We're sorry, Mister Richard. We did not see how important Miss Pearl is and offended her. Please let us go."
"Save it for the police." Richard ignored their pleas and carried Pearl off.
When the police sirens rang out, the three culprits accepted their fate and collapsed to the ground, their faces ghostly pale.. The officers took them away.
Mobius rushed to the scene and saw Pearl in Richard's arms. "She's so troublesome. I'm pretty sure she did this on purpose. She wants to make our life difficult!" Mobius was angry because he knew that Dustan would scold him when he got home.
"Enough, Mobius. Stop. Let's get her to the hospital first." "You do it. I don't want to go." Mobius left in a huff.
