Chapter 858
Ezra watched Pearl''s expression with surprise. "Even with everything happening, do you still wish to
be with Richard? I recall he''s set to marry the girl from the Jesselton family. It''s happening in a
couple of days."
"Yes, their wedding is nned, but no one knows if they''ll go through with it," Pearl replied
nonchntly.
Ezra''s lips trembled in anger. "I advise you not to provoke the Waldorfs again."
Pearl met his gaze with a cold stare, her icy demeanor unsettling Ezra. "I won''t provoke them, but I
will hold them ountable," she dered boldly, revealing her intentions.
Ezra couldn''t figure out how she was going to do that.
"What''s the direct link to my mother''s death?"
Pearl''s question enlightened Ezra. It was Hugo!
He had entrusted Beah''s care to Hugo, believing thetter could cure her. But Hugo failed, and
Beah died. Of course, Hugo must be med.
Ezra''s fury surged. Amidst his grief, he now desired retribution against Hugo.
"Pearl, I support you in this matter." Slowly, Ezra closed his eyes, concealing his deep-seated
resentment.
"I don''t need your support. I only ask that you don''t sabotage my efforts covertly," Pearl responded
firmly.Exclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.
"No, I must support you because you''re fighting for your mother''s justice," Ezra insisted, retrieving a
stack of contracts from beneath his pillow and handing them to Pearl.
"I''ve prepared these in advance. You''ll receive fifty-one percent of the familypany''s shares. The
remaining forty-nine percent will be split between ke and Felix. Some shares are held by other
shareholders. Now, I''ll transfer all my shares to you. You''ll be the majority shareholder of the
Jordan Group. No one will dare to challenge you," Ezra exined solemnly.
Pearl was shocked by Ezra''s unexpected gesture. It was as if he had announced that she was the
heir of the Jordan family.
"Did you prepare this long ago?" she asked, incredulous. After all, Ezra had ced all his wealth on
someone he didn''t even like, a move that seemed out of character for a business mogul who had
faced many hardships.
"Yes, ever since you returned with your mother''s body," Ezra admitted, a tear escaping as he closed
his eyes. "Pearl, you''re a good kid. I''ve always known that."
Ezra''s words caught Pearl off guard, making her feelplex emotions as she saw his vulnerable
side.
"Thank you, Grandfather," she said softly.
Ezra, startled by her address, opened his eyes wide. "What did you call me?"
"Grandfather," Pearl repeated, her tone sincere.
