NovelOnlineChapter 1188 Pearl frowned, annoyed. "Guards, give this man ten dollars," she said.
The guards were all her men, so they did as they were told without question.
The man was shocked when a ten-dollar bill hit his face.

And just like that, the man was quickly removed from the scene amidst all the commotion.
Once the situation was under control, Pearl turned to the crowd with a smile. "Sorry about that. The man just escaped from a mental hospital. We'll make sure he gets back there." Everyone was shocked by her words. Accusing someone of being mentally unstable was serious and could really hurt
the troublemaker's reputation.
However, everyone knew Pearl was a force to be reckoned with, so they weren't exactly surprised by her actions.
Then, a voice from behind caught Pearl off guard. "He just wanted a hug. Why treat him like a criminal?" Pearl spun around to see who it was. The woman standing there looked just like Jenny, except for a small mole near her eye that added to her appeal.
"You're..." This woman wasn't just a look-alike; she sounded like Jenny too. Pearl started to doubt the intel she had received.
Wasn't Jenny supposed to be dead? Why was she here? Pearl's mind raced with questions.

Pearl, trying to keep the peace, replied, "I don't know who he is, but he upset me."
The woman covered her mouth in shock. "Upset? All he wanted was a hug and that upset you? That's ridiculous." Pearl realized this woman might cause trouble. She might even be working with the man who was thrown out. Was this a trap? Pearl watched the woman closely, noticing her calm demeanor and smile, which made her more suspicious.
"Jenny Sullivan?" Pearl said, testing the woman.
The woman didn't react to the name. "Why are you calling out some random name in the middle of our conversation? Trying to distract me?" Pearl pressed on. "What if that ‘random name’ is actually yours?" The woman laughed sarcastically. "Well, then I'm sorry, but I'm not Jenny Sullivan." Pearl was shocked. "You have quite the memory then, to be able to remember a random name | mentioned just once." She was probing the woman, wanting to see how she
would react to being called out.
