Suddenly, Hanzel smiled. He stopped pushing Feather away, holding her waist gently instead.
“Have you thought this through?” he asked.
Feather nodded.
At that moment, near the door, Richard overheard their conversation. He glanced down at Pearl, still
unconscious in his arms, and then made a decision. After a brief pause, he carried Pearl and left,
heading back to Waldorf Residence.
When the noise at the door had disappeared, Hanzel let go of Feather, which left her feeling
dissatisfied.
“Alright, Feather. I’ll take you to the hospital now. If Miss Pearl finds out that I took liberties. with you,
she’ll kill me tomorrow.”
Initially, Hanzel hadn’t noticed anyone standing at the door, but he realized that it might be either
Richard or Pearl. Nevertheless, he thought that they might be less vigilant toward him if they believed
he was involved with another woman, especially Pearl.
Hanzel believed that Pearl and Richard had both been wary of him since he had confessed his love for
Pearl. His primary goal was to befriend Pearl.
He sighed deeply while looking at Feather because he felt uncomfortable manipulating her reputation.
Feather seemed to relent, and blushing, she fainted.
Hanzel let out a long sigh and then carried her, driving her to the hospital.
The next day, when Pearl woke up, she found herself back at Waldorf Residence. Both Dustan and
Susan were at home, and they smiled warmly upon seeing Pearl come downstairs.
“Welcome back, Pearl. You’re finally awake,” they greeted her.
Over time, especially Susan, they had come to regard Pearl as their daughter. Susan occasionally took
Pearl’s side in disputes with Richard.
“Mister Dustan, Madam, where’s Richard?” Pearl asked.

you’re awake, Pearl. Don’t worry, he’s at the company handling some matters. I believe he’ll be home
soon.”
Pearl nodded and slapped her forehead, realizing that it was the day the TV drama was beingnovelbin
released. Due to her unconsciousness, Richard, Hanzel, and Esther had to shoulder the responsibility.
With that in mind, Pearl quickly got ready and rushed to Brilliance Entertainment.
Clem was already at the office. He was sitting in front of his laptop, eagerly waiting for the data and
comments related to the drama’s release, which were crucial for its promotion. Esther, too, had skipped
her practice to be there.
When Pearl entered the office, she looked around but didn’t spot Hanzel Perplexed, she asked,
“Where’s Hanzel?” She knew that Hanzel wouldn’t forget about the drama’s release, given his
dedication to it.
Clem shook his head. “I’m not sure. He hasn’t texted me or requested a day off. He might have
overslept.”
Pearl decided not to dwell on it and turned her attention to the laptop with concern. This was drama she
had signed, but she hadn’t been heavily involved in its production. However, now she felt a growing
sense of anxiety as she stared at the data.
The drama’s first three episodes were scheduled for release at nine o’clock in the morning. coinciding
