After gathering more information, Pearl realized that the man she had just treated was none other than Daniel Blumenfeld, the richest man in Hazelton. It became clear why
he had generously rewarded her with ten thousand diamonds.
Leah, on the other hand, was envious. While she was aware of Daniel’s status, she had treated him coldly, believing he was on the brink of death and there was no need to be
polite.

feeling better?”
Daniel, who remembered that Leah had not been helpful and had even made things worse, responded with a cold tone, “I feel much better thanks to the treatment the
hospital provided.”
His response was laced with sarcasm, which made Pearl giggle and left Leah speechless and pale.
Pearl decided to intervene, gently pointing Leah toward the door. “Alright, Leah, you should continue your rounds. Aren’t there other patients to attend to?”
Leah scoffed and stormed out, realizing that she couldn’t win over Daniel’s favor.
Even Daniel couldn’t help but comment on Leah’s behavior, “This woman is so arrogant. I can see why she’s just a doctor making rounds”
Pearl was secretly delighted by this comment, hoping Leah heard it before leaving. She assured Daniel, “I’ll take over your treatment after this so you don’t have to worry.”
Daniel looked at Pearl with increasing admiration. “You’re such a kind young lady. Here’s my business card. Feel free to call me if you need any help. By the way, do you have
a boyfriend?”

Richard, who had been silent until now, stood up and sounded a bit confrontational. “I’m taking Pearl back She’s still in recovery”
Daniel sensed the tension and nodded. “Of course, go ahead.”
Taking Pearl by the hand, Richard led her back to her room. In the corridor, Pearl sensed the coldness emanating from Richard and remained silent
When Richard finally broke the silence, he called her name. “Pearl.”
Startled by his sudden address, Pearl replied, “Yes?”
“When can I marry you?”
Pearl chuckled. “Didn’t I say I’d consider engagement after finding my mom?”
Richard wasn’t entirely satisfied with that response. “Let’s get engaged first. When we find your mom, we’ll get married.”
Surprised by his sudden urgency, Pearl asked, “Why the rush? Remember, you agreed to my terms before.”
Richard lifted her off the floor and pinned her against the wall. “I don’t want others to covet you. I want everyone to know that you belong to me.”
