    “You must have misheard,” Pearl replied, deliberately keeping her response vague.


    Sean nodded, seemingly satisfied with her answer. “Alright then, if you don’t want to share, I won’t


    press you.” He continued, “Do you think we’ll die here today?”


    “Die here? Why would we?” Pearl was annoyed by Sean’s question.


    Sean’s smile grew mischievous. “So, you mean you’ll protect me?”


    Pearl felt the urge to punch him but refrained. “Don’t even think about taking advantage of me.”


    As they engaged in their banter, someone quietly observed them.


    Pearl had a feeling she was being watched and turned around to find Gigi, whom she hadn’t seen in a


    while.


    Gigi stared at Pearl in disbelief. “You… You’re still alive?”


    Pearl felt awkward, as she hadn’t informed anyone about faking her death. She wasn’t sure how to


    handle the situation now that someone had spotted her.


    “Yes, I’m still alive, but-”


    Gigi quickly caught on and interrupted, “So Madam Beah is with you, right?”


    Pearl realized Gigi was in shock and decided not to lie to her. She nodded, saying, “Yes, my mom is


    with me.”


    Gigi chuckled sadly. “Doctor Hugo suddenly said he was going to take her abroad, and I was worried


    her condition had worsened. I’m relieved she’s with you.”


    She had wanted to apany Madam Beah but wasn’t included in Hugo’s ns. She had epted it,


    as she wasn’t rted to Madam Beah.


    Seeing the distress in Gigi’s eyes, Pearl remembered something and asked, “Are you doing well in the


    Jordan Residence?”


    Gigi had blended into the crowd, and the noise around them made it hard to hear. She took a few steps


    closer, preparing to speak with Pearl.


    Suddenly, a loud crash from above caught everyone’s attention. A burning piece of nk, which had


    been on fire for too long, fell from the ceiling,nding right where Pearl was standing.


    Pearl braced herself for the worst when, out of nowhere, a pair of hands pushed her out of harm’s way.


    Looking up, she saw that Gigi had saved her but was now trapped beneath the fallen nk.


    “Gigi!”


    Pearl immediately tried to lift the nk using her clothes–wrapped hand, but it was too heavy for her


    alone. She managed to shift it slightly, but it was not enough.


    Sean rushed over to help when he saw the dire situation. Others in the vicinity also saw this and joined


    in to help. Together, they managed to lift the nk.

    Pearl quickly pulled Gigi to safety. Fortunately, she hadn’t been trapped for too long, and the mes


    hadn’t reached above her neck. However, her clothes were burned, and she had


    suffered some burns on her skin.


    “Are you alright?” Pearl was anxious.

    “Where do you want to go now?” Sean asked and tossed the singlet away.


    Pearl’s mind was still in turmoil, thinking about Gigi’s selfless act of saving her. She sounded anxious


    as she replied, “I need to see Gigt at the hospital.”


    Saan nodded. “I’ll go with you.” He had forgotten about the date they were supposed to have. Pearl


    declined his offer, her tone turning cold. “I can go alone. I need to investigate how this fire started, and


    once I find out who’s behind it, I won’t let them get away.
