Pearl was kidnapped so stealthily that no one was aware of her disappearance.

As the car jostled along the road, Pearl stirred from her slumber, unnoticed by the man at the wheel. Seizing the opportunity, she began plotting her

escape.

Her hands were tied behind her, but her ring remained on her finger. Using its hidden mechanism, she retrieved a knife. With careful precision, she

maneuvered the blade while the man was distracted by the music blaring in the car.

When the man finally noticed her movement, he grew tense. "Why are you suddenly awake?"

Pearl didn't answer him and pressed the knife against his throat.

"What are you planning to do?" he stammered, his hands trembling on the steering wheel. "I'm driving so if you want us both to be safe, let go of me."

Pearl scoffed. "You think | won't be able to drive if you die?"

"Oh god, please don't kill me. I'll tell you anything." The man, unaccustomed to such situations, quickly divulged Winona's instructions. "She wants

you taken to the Jesselton ancestral home."

"Their ancestral home?" Surprised by Winona's plan, Pearl's anxiety shifted to curiosity.

It was weird. She thought Winona hated her and wanted her to die, but why was she taking her to their ancestral home? If she didn't want her dead,

what was her motive then?

"Alright, do as you were told then," she instructed calmly, stowing away the knife.

"Why aren't you trying to escape?" the man asked incredulously, then immediately regretted his question. Why did he care? He was just supposed to

deliver her to the destination.

Pearl, unfazed, simply replied, "It's none of your concern. Just make sure to tieloosely when we arrive."

The man nodded in compliance, sensing there was no use pressing further.

After half an hour, the car arrived at Jesselton Manor. Following Pearl's instructions, the man tied her up loosely before presenting her to the people

at the gate.

"Good job. I'll wire the money to you."

The man, eager to be done with the ordeal, accepted the praise and left with a grin.
