“I can’t stop you, since that’s what you want,” Beah said, patting Pearl’s hand, her gaze shifting to Hugo

nearby. “Just don’t break things off too easily now that you’ve chosen him. You’re getting engaged,

after all. Take it seriously.”

Beah had finally come to terms with the situation.

First, Pearl had faked her own death to escape a forced marriage. Now, she was planning to take Beah

abroad and get engaged to someone else. Beah found Pearl’s life more exciting than her own youth.

But it was for the best. They were about to leave for abroad, and it seemed unlikely that Ezra would

easily find Pearl now. Beah could temporarily escape the Jordan family’s control, which was a welcome

development.

“He’s quite the catch,” Beah remarked, casting a sidelong glance at Hugo. She was thoroughly satisfied

with him and considered him a perfect match for Pearl.

When Hugo noticed Beah’s admiring gaze, he tried to convince her, saying, “Madam Beah, I’ve just

examined your condition, and you’re temporarily stable. We should depart tomorrow. The sooner, the

better, as we can’t afford to delay your treatment.”

“Very well,” Beah replied. She trusted Hugo, and if he recommended this course of action, she was

willing to go along with it without question.

Observing Pearl, who seemed lost in thought, Beah asked, “Pearl, is there something else on your

mind that you haven’t shared?”

Hugo scrutinized Pearl closely as well.

“No, there’s nothing else. I was just lost in thought,” Pearl replied.

Beah decided not to press further, rubbing her temples wearily. “Pearl, I’m exhausted. I’ll head upstairs

to rest.‘

“Okay, Mom. Rest early.”

Once Beah was gone, Pearl glared at Hugo with frustration.

Puzzled, Hugo questioned, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“I don’t know. I just find you an eyesore!” Pearl exclaimed, venting her frustration by repeatedly

smacking a pillow.

Enlightened, Hugo leaned back lazily on the sofa and made an accurate guess. “I see. You must be

thinking about Richard and wondering why he could forget about you, let alone come looking for you.

You can’t accept it…”

Pearl was both stunned and helpless. He was right.

“But so what?” Hugo continued. “You can’t be with him.” His eyes widened as he watched Pearl. He

had never seen her cry before.

It was the first time Hugo saw Pearl’s tears. She cried without much visible sorrow on her face, but it

moved him.

Unlike other women he had encountered, Jenny included, Hugo found himself sympathizing with Pearl.

An inexplicable sense of guilt hit him as he wondered if his words had been too harsh earlier.

“You’re right. I did think about that,” Pearl admitted, wiping away her tears and trying to sound

composed, though her voice still quivered. “I know it’s impossible between him and me. You don’t need

to keep reminding me.‘

Everyone kept reminding her of the same thing. Yes, she was fully aware of it. But those memories

were etched deeply within her, causing her immense pain.

How could she forget Richard, the aloof man who had shown her his gentler side? She might never

forget him.

Pearl looked up at Hugo with a serious expression. Her voice, clear yet tinged with sorrow, sounded

out, “Hugo.”

“What?”

Pearl sniffed slightly, her nose reddened from crying. She then mustered a smile. “Let’s reschedule the

tickets and leave today.”
