Pearl raised an eyebrow. “At this point, do you still believe Leah will come to her senses?”
Richard understood what she meant and replied solemnly, “I don’t need her apology.”

The director caught the implication in his words. It wasn’t that he didn’t need her apology, but that he
despised Leah and didn’t want her anywhere near him.
“I know what to do, Mister Richard. Don’t worry, I’ll give you an explanation.”
After ending the call, the radiator was nearly fully installed, and the room began to warm up. Pearl
could finally feel the comforting warmth seeping in.
“Are you really planning to donate 15 million dollars to the hospital?” Pearl questioned, genuinely
surprised that a profit- driven businessman like Richard would consider such a charitable act.
“Of course not, but if she fires Leah, I might consider giving her the money.”
“Why?”
“Because anything that benefits you is worth doing.”
Richard’s words might not have been romantic, but they still touched Pearl deeply. She gazed at his
determined and earnest face, unsure of how to respond.
“Alright, get some rest. You’ll probably be discharged tomorrow.”
Pearl nodded, a sense of happiness welling up inside her heart.
That night, Pearl bid farewell to Mister Blumenfeld.
Aware that Pearl would soon leave, he couldn’t hold back his tears. “As an old man, I don’t have much
to give you, and money is too tacky. How about this? I’ll offer you something that represents mynovelbin
identity. It will ensure your smooth journey in Hazelton!”
With great care, he took out his pendant and placed it in Pearl’s hand.
Pearl’s heart warmed at the meaningful gesture. To her, money was just a string of numbers, but a
cherished keepsake and identity was priceless.
“Remember to visit me often…”
While the words were sentimental, Pearl couldn’t help but find them somewhat amusing. She stifled a
laugh and reassured him, “Don’t worry, you’ll be discharged soon. When you’re out, let’s grab a cup of
coffee. You won’t miss me then.”
Pearl made a valid point, but Mister Blumenfeld looked at her with teary eyes and said, “You simply
don’t want to deal with an old man like me. I get it.”
Pearl was speechless.
The following afternoon, when Richard arrived to complete the discharge procedures, Pearl was
already packed and ready to leave. However, Leah unexpectedly appeared at the door.
Seeing that Pearl was prepared to depart, Leah couldn’t contain her anger and shouted, “Pearl, you
b*tch! You stole my position back then, and now that I’ve worked hard to become the department head,
you’re forcing the director to fire me. What’s your game?!”
Pearl wouldn’t tolerate her twisting the truth and responded with a cold smile, “Oh? Aren’t you
responsible for all of this yourself?”
Leah, feeling guilty, couldn’t maintain eye contact and appeared uneasy. “What nonsense are you
talking about? I haven’t

done anything to you.”
“Well, that’s even better, Leah. Care to explain the radiator issue? I’ve been waiting all afternoon, and
no maintenance personnel have shown up.”
Leah couldn’t provide a valid explanation and murmured, “I was busy and forgot…”
“Since you’re so busy, let’s lighten your burden then,” Richard said confidently as he entered the room.
