Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 859

Ezra's face lit up with genuine joy, a rare sight for Pearl.

"You're a wonderful granddaughter. You take after me, and you're far better than that disappointing Blake," he remarked with pride, reaching out his hand.

Pearl walked over and placed her hand in his.

"From now on, you'll need to guide Blake. He's as mischievous as his brother and lacks understanding. Despite being older than you, you possess more wisdom. You must teach him well and stop him from being too impulsive."

"But why didn't you teach him yourself?" Pearl inquired.

Ezra's expression darkened in frustration. "I tried, but he never listened. However, he respects you and values your opinion." Sighing, he continued, "As for me, I'm ready to retire and rest well."

Pearl's warmth toward him faded slightly, suspecting his motives for retiring and leaving everything to her. Nonetheless, she expressed her gratitude for his support, as the Jordan Group ranked among the top three companies in Bodgow, wielding immense influence.

After bidding Ezra farewell, Pearl was surprised to find Blake waiting for her outside, standing on a nearby bridge with flowers at his feet. It seemed he had casually picked them out of boredom.

"You're still here. Aren't you bored waiting?" Pearl asked as she approached.

Blake glanced at her, his expression seemingly reproachful. "Yes, I'm bored. But you're not familiar with this place. What if you get lost when I leave?"

Noticing the documents in her hands, Blake asked about them. "What are those?"

This halted Blake in his tracks. "What? Why so soon?"

Pearl nodded. "I have something important to do."

Blake paused, considering her words. "Then I'll accompany you."

Pearl smiled. "Great, but I'll need your help with planning my mother's funeral first. After that, we can head back together."

Blake sighed, realizing he had more work ahead of him.
