Chapter 579


    They arrived in Bodgow, and as they disembarked, a Maybach pulled up to pick them. up. The car had


    a discreet color scheme, much like Damian himself.


    Pearl noticed the well–dressed driver and couldn’t resist a yful remark. “Haven’t you been abroad?


    How did you manage the Scott household?”


    Damian rolled his eyes at herment. “Tell me how Cerubleu manages to run so smoothly while you


    just stand there and do nothing?”


    Pearl froze–he made sense.


    She apanied Damian to Scotts Manor, feeling a mix of emotions. The manor appeared old, but it


    was obviously constructed only a few years ago.


    Once they got out of the car, a butler greeted them.


    “Wee home, sir,” the stern–faced butler said. He was the same butler who had visited Damian’s


    family when their manor caught fire years ago. Upon hearing about the family’s situation, he had nearly


    had a heart attack


    “This… must be Miss Pearl,” the butler added, his eyes still sharp but with a hint of hidden.

    It was impressive how he immediately recognized her. Pearl smiled nervously. “Yes, I’m Pearl


    Leighton.”


    “I’ve heard that the Jordans are all outstanding. Today I get to see that it’s indeed true.”


    Although she was a Jordan, Pearl wasn’t happy to hear that. However, since he was the butler for the


    Scotts, she kept herposure. “Thank you for thepliment. The Scotts are actually the


    outstanding ones.”


    The butler’s eyes betrayed a hint of pain when the family was brought up.


    “I’ve prepared your room. Let me show you to it. If you need anything else, please don’t hesitate to


    ask,” he said, turning to extend his arm for them to proceed.


    Pearl nodded and began walking toward the stairs, with the butler following alongside.


    “Miss Pearl, your mother was childhood friends with Master Scott. She used toe here to y,” the


    butler remarked as they walked.


    Pearl stopped walking at the mention of her mother.


    “I thought they might eventually fall in love, but then a sculptor appeared out of nowhere and won your


    mother’s heart. They quickly became a couple after that.”


    The butler smiled warmly. “Master Scott was so upset that he didn’t eat for three days. He couldn’t


    understand how his childhood friend had suddenly fallen for someone else. How could he not be sad?


    However, Master Scott recovered well and decided he would protect your mother instead.”


    Pearl couldn’t help but tear up at the depth of this man’s love.


    “By the way, Master Jordan would have preferred to die than let your mother marry a poor


    man, so he locked her up for half a year.”

    Pearl was choked with emotion, her heart sinking as she pondered the situation. She had never truly


    questioned why her mother, who would show up every now and then, had disappeared. Could it be…


    because Ezra was controlling her?


    The realization hit her, and she felt a deep sadness. If only she had realized this sooner, her mother


    might have been fine.


    However, if her mother was living with the Jordans, at least her safety would be guaranteed.
