Chapter 60
Pearl, unlike other women, wasn't swayed by Hanzel's pleading look. She could sense his feelings for her but couldn't reciprocate.

But Richard ignored him and drove away:

"Be careful, Richard!" Pearl was worried, feeling that their speed was becoming dangerously high.

"Get out of the car, Richard!"
The occupants of the car behind them got out, cursing fiercely. Richard realized they were after him and said to Pearl, They're here for me. I'll distract them later so you can escape."
