Chapter 19
Abby yearned to separate the two, so when she heard this, she took Richard’s arm and left.
After they left, the ward became peaceful again. However, Pearl could not calm down. She suddenly
realized that she had missed an important clue. She had gone to Moblus‘ university with him, and not
many people should have known about it, so how did Hanzel’s fan learn where she was and capture
her at just the right time?
A bold idea struck Pearl. She made a call and asked the officers to interrogate the fan. A few moments
later, her eyes turned ice -cold as she read the text on her phone.
[Abby Flores.]
As expected, Abby was the mastermind behind the incident.
‘Abby, you’ve tried to harm me again and again. Let’s just wait and see.”
A few days later, Flores Firms inexplicably fell into a financial crisis. Some of the company’s executives

million dollars from the Waldorf family to save their company, Susan regarded Abby as her future
daughter–in–law, so she asked Richard to help them until things were
resolved.
Abby was too busy to go to the hospital and behave like a hypocrite since her family fell into a crisis.
Pearl gained her peace.
Hugo routinely came to inspect Pearl. After one of the inspections, he took off his stethoscope and
smiled. “You’re all better now. You can be discharged today.”
“Okay, great.”
“Didn’t Rick come to see you today?
Richard was too busy to come and see Pearl these days because of the crisis at Flores Firm. Pearl did
not mind this. As she ate her breakfast, she said casually, “It’s up to him whether he wants to come or
not. You’re asking the wrong person.”
Hugo did not expect such an answer. He chuckled. “Dad asked you to spend time with the five of us.
So, who are you most satisfied with?”
Pearl raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Who do you want me to say?”
Her answer was impeccable. It was indeed a difficult situation.
Hugo smiled gently. “Okay, I won’t ask. After all, I’m not interested in you.” He then turned and left.
Richard did not come in the afternoon. Pearl handled the procedures on her own. She took the
Waldorfs‘ family car home. But although she had recovered, she could not stay home all the time.
Dustan suggested she work at Waldorf Enterprises.
Everyone had a different reaction to this suggestion.
Mobius‘ objection was the greatest. He peeked at Pearl disdainfully, who was sipping tea calmly on the
sofa. “She’s just a woman from a village. She doesn’t know how to handle company work. Dad, don’t

“I can’t handle the work, and you can?
Pearl was amused by his angry expression.
“I’m better than you at everything!”
Richard remained silent, quietly watching Pearl. He felt that she always surprised him.
Dustan pulled a long face and shot Mobius a reproachful glare. “Though Pea comes from a village, you
shouldn’t mock her. You will go without dinner tonight. Go to your room and reflect on your mistakes.”
Pearl had gifted Hanzel a microphone he coveted, so he had a good impression of her. He threw in
some nice words on her behalf. “I think we let Pearl give it a go. After all, it must be boring staying at
home all day.”
After a pause, Richard said, “We’ll give her an intern position. If she can’t handle it, we’ll find something
else for her to do.”

Once Richard had made a decision, it could no longer be changed.
