Chapter 859


    Ezra''s face lit up with genuine joy, a rare sight for Pearl.


    "You''re a wonderful granddaughter. You take after me, and you''re far better than that disappointing


    ke," he remarked with pride, reaching out his hand.


    Pearl walked over and ced her hand in his.


    "From now on, you''ll need to guide ke. He''s as mischievous as his brother andcks


    understanding. Despite being older than you, you possess more wisdom. You must teach him well


    and stop him from being too impulsive."


    "But why didn''t you teach him yourself?" Pearl inquired.


    Ezra''s expression darkened in frustration. "I tried, but he never listened. However, he respects you


    and values your opinion." Sighing, he continued, "As for me, I''m ready to retire and rest well."


    Pearl''s warmth toward him faded slightly, suspecting his motives for retiring and leaving everything


    to her. Nheless, she expressed her gratitude for his support, as the Jordan Group ranked


    among the top threepanies in Bodgow, wielding immense influence.


    After bidding Ezra farewell, Pearl was surprised to find ke waiting for her outside, standing on a


    nearby bridge with flowers at his feet. It seemed he had casually picked them out of boredom.

    "You''re still here. Aren''t you bored waiting?" Pearl asked as she approached.


    ke nced at her, his expression seemingly reproachful. "Yes, I''m bored. But you''re not familiar


    with this ce. What if you get lost when I leave?"


    Noticing the documents in her hands, ke asked about them. "What are those?"


    Pearl had nothing to hide, so she exined, "Grandfather gave these to me. I now have control


    over the Jordan Group. You''d better listen to me."


    ke''s expression soured. "I should have known. You called him ''Grandfather,'' and he practically


    handed over the entire family to you."


    "He even instructed me to discipline you," Pearl added with a hint of amusement.


    The mention of discipline infuriated ke. "I''m older than you. I don''t need you to discipline me.


    Grandfather must be losing his mind to suggest such nonsense!"


    He stormed off in a huff, leaving Pearl unfazed.


    Pearl watched his back and said firmly, "By the way, I''m returning to Enswood the day after


    tomorrow."


    This halted ke in his tracks. "What? Why so soon?"


    Pearl nodded. "I have something important to do."


    ke paused, considering her words. "Then I''ll apany you."


    Pearl smiled. "Great, but I''ll need your help with nning my mother''s funeral first. After that, we


    can head back together."


    ke sighed, realizing he had more work ahead of him.
