As expected, he had lost his right thumb.
“I’m just a handicapped man. It’s hard for me to find a wife, let alone do something big.
So, I’ve been doing miscellaneous work, and nobody likes me,” he said, looking
despondent. “And of course, I hate you. I swear I’ll make your father pay a price. So, when

‘Reese Cooper…‘ Pearl recalled that it was the godfather she had encountered by chance.
Reese, Drew… One appeared like a thug, while the other was bright and handsome. Pearl
found it difficult to connect them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man assumed that Pearl would sympathize with him after he shared his woes. After
all, she was such a mysterious woman. If she could help him, it would bring no
disadvantages. Unexpectedly, Pearl didn’t empathize with him after hearing about his

“You claimed it was just a minor mistake. Do you have the guts to explain that now? And
you want revenge, yet you ordered your men to harass the women on this ship. It’s clear
that you’re just a bastard!”
“You don’t know the whole story. How can you judge me like that?” The masked man’s
face twisted in anger. “Fine, you’re going to pay for this!”
Not only was Pearl fearless, but she also stepped forward in front of everyone else. “So,

“I… He promised to pay me a lot of money after we’re done,” the man replied.
Pearl nodded thoughtfully and asked another person, “What about you?”
“He also promised to give me money after it’s over.”

Their gazes turned towards the man in the mask.
The masked man looked livid. “Don’t listen to her. She’s just trying to confuse us so she
beat us all!”
But the people behind him didn’t dare to budge, no matter what he said.
Pearl slowly smiled and said, “Listen to my offer. Work for me and capture this rude man.
When it’s done, I’ll give each of you 150 thousand dollars.”
“150 thousand?”
Everyone cast intense but uncertain glances at the man in the mask, sizing him up
without reservation.
