Chapter 755
Pearl found herself with some free time on the weekend and decided to visit Esther, who had
recently returned from abroad. Esther had been eager to meet up, but Pearl had been too busy until
now.
Esther was making a name for herself as an up-anding actress, and Pearl thought it would be
a good opportunity to catch up and perhaps offer her some support. She also wanted to see if she
could get some extras as streamers.
As she walked several hundred meters away from the Quinton Residence, Pearl realized that the
house was located in a remote suburb, making it difficult to find a taxi nearby.
She refused to give up and opened an app on her phone to search for nearby taxis, but no one
picked up her request.
Frustrated, she regretted not borrowing a car from Ss but didn''t want to bother him by calling for
one now. Instead, she decided to see if she could find a passing car that could take her to the city
center.
The road leading away from the Quinton Residence passed through arge forested area, with just
an ordinary road cutting through it. As Pearl walked along the road, she heard a faint cry for help in
the distance.
"Help me… Can anyone hear me..."
Although it was faint, it was clear in such a deserted ce.
Pearl wasn''t looking for trouble, but the urgency in the voicepelled her to investigate. "Who''s
there?"
When the person finally gained a response, the call for help became louder. "I''m here! Over here!"
The voice came from the southeast, and Pearl quickly made her way through the bushes.
She found a woman in distress, covered in blood, with her face obscured. The woman''s abdomen
had been cut open, and her intestines were visible.
"Can you drive me to the hospital? I don''t want to die." The woman reached out shakily, trying to
grab Pearl''s clothes.
"Don''t panic. I don''t have a car, and can''t drive you to the hospital. But I''ll try to get a car for you."
Pearl examined the woman''s injuries, which appeared severe but not immediately life-threatening.
She decided to keep the woman talking to prevent her from cking out.
Pearl then sent her location to Wayne and called him. "Send a car here immediately."
"Miss Pearl, it''s quite far," Wayne replied. "The closest car will take at least twenty minutes."
"Can you make it as fast as possible?"
"Miss Pearl, I don''t have your exact location. It seems like a remote area, and the fastest car needs
twenty minutes to get there."
Pearl sighed in frustration. "Alright, twenty minutes then. Please ask the driver to hurry."
After hanging up, Pearl squatted down beside the injured woman, wrinkling her nose at the strong
smell of blood. "Who did this to you?"
She tried to chat with the woman to gather more information about her condition and to keep her
alert, preventing her from losing consciousness prematurely.
The woman shook her head. "I don''t know. I came here to pick some wild vegetables, but—"Material ? N?velDrama.Org.
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly widened her eyes, her gaze fixed on something
behind Pearl.
"Watch out!"
