Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 858

Ezra watched Pearl's expression with surprise. "Even with everything happening, do you still wish to be with Richard? I recall he's set to marry the girl from the Jesselton family. It's happening in a couple of days."

"Yes, their wedding is planned, but no one knows if they'll go through with it," Pearl replied nonchalantly.

Ezra's lips trembled in anger. "I advise you not to provoke the Waldorfs again."

Pearl met his gaze with a cold stare, her icy demeanor unsettling Ezra. "I won't provoke them, but I will hold them accountable," she declared boldly, revealing her intentions.

Ezra couldn't figure out how she was going to do that.

"What's the direct link to my mother's death?"

Pearl's question enlightened Ezra. It was Hugo!

He had entrusted Beah's care to Hugo, believing the latter could cure her. But Hugo failed, and Beah died. Of course, Hugo must be blamed.

Ezra's fury surged. Amidst his grief, he now desired retribution against Hugo.

"Pearl, I support you in this matter." Slowly, Ezra closed his eyes, concealing his deep-seated resentment.

Ezra's words caught Pearl off guard, making her feel complex emotions as she saw his vulnerable side.

"Thank you, Grandfather," she said softly.

Ezra, startled by her address, opened his eyes wide. "What did you call me?"

"Grandfather," Pearl repeated, her tone sincere.
