Chapter 55 A Disloyal Friend

operate on Pearl as soon as possible.”

Jessica felt an oppressive weight lift off her shoulders. Suddenly feeling hungry, she dug into

her dinner.

Elizabeth glimpsed at Pearl, who didn’t have much appetite. After eating only a few

her illness did not plague the girl’s mind.

arrived, and it was time for Jessica to leave for her shift in Night City.

to Night City.
