Should I Finish Birth Control Pack Despite Having Withdrawal Bleeding?

Hi, I missed 4 consecutive pills and only noticed yesterday when I started getting cramps like period pain. I took 2 tablets as it said on the package, however I have started what seems to be a very light and dark brown withdrawal bleed. I only have 3 tablets left in the pack, should I keep taking them or let the withdrawal bleed run its course and start again when it s finished?
