“Blake will wake up soon. Let’s go in and see him.” Pearl was worried that Blake might be traumatized
when he learned about the condition of his back after waking up.
They changed into sterile clothing and entered the ward.
Seeing Blake’s furrowed brows and sweaty forehead, Pearl felt a deep sense of sorrow. It was
unexpected that he would be in such pain even while in a coma.
Pearl moved closer and saw that his fingers were trembling rhythmically, so she reached out and gently
held his hand.
Miraculously, Blake slowly opened his eyes in the next moment. Despite the thick layer of padding
beneath him, he still sweated and grimaced in pain when he shifted slightly.
“Are you okay, Blake?” Pearl’s heart ached as she witnessed his distress.
“I’m okay, Pearl. I won’t die,” Blake assured her, showing his determination. He knew the extent of
damage the sulfuric acid had caused to his back, but he would make the same choice to protect Pearl if
given another chance.
“Don’t worry. I will help cure your back, and I guarantee that it’ll look how it used to be.” While cheering
Blake up, Pearl set a target for herself.
Despite the pain, Blake’s pride remained intact. “I don’t need that. A little back injury is nothing for a
man like me.”
“Alright, don’t worry. I’ll not only heal you but also make sure that the culprit faces. consequences,”
Pearl declared with a fierce glint in her eyes, her thoughts turning to the person who had fled with the
bucket of sulfuric acid. It would be very easy to screen the suspects because she had just gotten there
and yet to offend anyone.
“You should start by looking into Willow. We’ve recently had a falling out, and she’s probably harboring
resentment,” Blake suggested calmly, despite the pain in his back.
Pearl narrowed her eyes and couldn’t help but smirk at the thought of Willow’s timid demeanor. “I doubt
Willow would be so audacious, but the Quinlevans might be a more likely culprit.” The Quinlevans were
known for their boldness if the accusation held true.
Unconcerned, Blake tried to comfort her. “Don’t take it to heart because our family will look into it. After
all, Grandfather will do something since I’m seriously hurt.” It was clear that Blake’s confidence
stemmed from being the young heir of the Jordans, who had the means to seek justice when wronged.
“The Jordan family and I are different. I’ll find the culprit and ensure you get justice,” Pearl vowed
resolutely.
After chatting a bit, Blake grew tired and asked them to leave, as he needed rest.
Pearl intended to return to the Jordan family estate to request some herbs from Ezra. Their vast
resources should make obtaining the necessary items relatively straightforward.
“Are you going home? Let me give you a ride,” Glenn offered as he followed Pearl.
But Pearl shook her head. “It’s okay. I have other things to take care of. Just focus on what you need to
do.”
“Alright.” Glenn didn’t press the matter, knowing his place. He nodded and left.
As Pearl exited the hospital corridor, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
“Richard… what are you doing here?”
“I didn’t mean to intrude earlier. I was genuinely concerned about your injury.” Richard stood outside
the hospital, cigarette in hand, with a few smoked down to the filter. The ground around him was littered
with ashes.
