“Hello, Miss Pearl. I wanted to thank you earlier, but you were in a hurry to leave. It’s probably written in
the stars that we meet again. Please, tell me what you want. I can help grant your wish.”
Stupefied, Pearl chuckled. “I thought you wanted to give me a check.”
He shook his head lightly. “No, you have an extraordinary aura. I’m sure you’re not interested in
money.”
“I don’t have anything I need at the moment. Just consider that you owe me a favor if you really want to
repay me.”
The man nodded, but then a thought struck him. He asked hesitantly, “Would you like to meet Laura?
She wishes to thank you after learning that you saved her.”

She accompanied him to the VIP ward. Inside, a girl was having oatmeal. When the girl saw Pearl, her
eyes sparkled with excitement.
Laura was a pretty girl with fair, smooth skin. One could tell that she would grow up to be a
devastatingly charming lady. “Pretty lady, did you save me?”
Pearl nodded. “Yeah.”
“What’s your name, pretty lady?”
Rubbing her head, Pearl answered, “I’m Pearl Leighton.”
“I’m Lauran Jordan. It means ‘honor.’ You’re so pretty, and you talk so nicely. I want you to feed me
oatmeal.”
The man became visibly uncomfortable. “She’s your savior. How could you ask her to feed you?
Behave and let your mom do it.

“No, I don’t want to. I want the pretty lady to feed me, or I won’t eat it!” Laura abandoned her usual
obedience and threw a tantrum, insisting that Pearl feed her oatmeal.
“Stop that, Laura!”
But Laura began crying loudly.
Her fake crying amused Pearl. Suppressing her laughter, Pearl relented. “Okay, I’ll feed you. Stop
crying.”
Laura’s expression changed instantly, her face lighting up. “Really?”
“Yes, come here and eat.”

surprising the two people nearby.
“Okay, I’m done eating. Can you play with me, Miss Pearl?”
Pearl found herself in a predicament. “I have something else to attend to later. Can I come and play
with you next time? I’ll always be here in the hospital, and I won’t break my word.”
Laura looked disappointed but managed to put on a smile. “Okay, which ward are you in? I’ll come to
visit you when I’m free.” After Pearl told Laura about Hanzel’s ward, she prepared to leave.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. When Pearl opened it, she saw a familiar face.
Sophia?
Sophia was equally surprised to see Pearl and wondered why she was suddenly at the hospital.
“It’s been a while, Pearl. I heard about your kidnapping, but I didn’t have the chance to visit you. I’m
sure you know a design director has a lot on their plate.”
