“Alright, that would work.”
They had a chat for a short while, and then Pearl left the room.
Suddenly, the sky started pouring rain out of nowhere, and Hanzel quickly rushed Laura back to her
room. Pearl couldn’t help but laugh when she saw the two of them, completely soaked.
“You’re so playful, Hanzel. Just like a kid,” Pearl teased.
Hanzel smiled. “I’m not. The kid wants me to make twenty-two crowns because she wants to give it to
twenty-two people in her class.”
“You remembered to share.” Pearl patted Laura’s head. “Alright, Laura, go shower and change, or you
might catch a cold.” Laura nodded. “Okay.”
Pearl turned her attention to Hanzel. “You should shower too, but I don’t think there are any clothes for
you here… I didn’t bring your clothes along. What should we do?”
Going out to buy new clothes didn’t seem feasible due to the heavy rain, which could be dangerous.
Allan took out a set of his clothes. “You can wear this. We’re about the same height, and you’re leaner.
It wouldn’t be a perfect fit, but it’s as good as it gets.’ novelbin
Allan had good taste, and Hanzel wasn’t picky, so the latter walked to the bathroom with the clothes.
Even after Hanzel finished showering, the rain showed no signs of letting up. Pearl felt a bit concerned
because it was getting late, and they might not be able to return home.
“Don’t worry, we have a lot of guest rooms upstairs. You can stay here if you don’t mind. We have
everything you need,” Allan reassured them.
Laura’s mom took out some blankets. “You can take these two rooms. Don’t be shy.”
Pearl looked at the pouring rain and reluctantly accepted their invitation.
That night, the rain started to slow down, but Pearl couldn’t sleep. She couldn’t stop thinking about her
conversation with Allan that afternoon.
She was the only daughter of the Jordans’ only daughter. She thought she was just a normal person,
but her mother turned out to be from a prestigious family.
What happens next? If the Jordans found out who she was, they would want her to stay there or force
her to marry someone she didn’t love.
Pearl didn’t know anyone from the Jordans other than Allan, so she didn’t know what kind of family they
were. She had no emotional connection to them, which was why she didn’t want to return.
Her thoughts swirled in her mind until exhaustion finally pulled her into a restless sleep.
The next day, Pearl got up early, and Lindsay was already preparing breakfast. Since they were
heading back to Ancard that day, they began to pack their things.
After breakfast, Pearl and Hanzel planned to leave early to avoid bumping into the Jordans, but Allan
saw them. “Pearl, my second brother’s son will be coming to get us later. Do you want to meet him?”
Pearl understood what Allan was trying to do. He wanted to build a relationship between the cousins by
letting them meet. “It’s fine, we don’t know each other.” Pearl didn’t like meeting someone this way, so
she turned him down.
Hanzel, recalling Laura’s promise to introduce someone to Pearl, chimed in, “No, we need to get back
to work today, so we can’t stay any longer.”
Allan and Lindsay couldn’t say anything more, so they just accepted it.
As they stepped outside, the sound of an engine caught their attention, and Pearl felt a sinking feeling
in her stomach. Just as
she suspected, a Porsche was parked outside, and a menacing-looking man emerged from it.
