Chapter 588
“Compete? Who would use their own marriage as a competition? Sean isn’t even a Waldorf anymore. So, what’s the point of competing?” Pearl couldn’t figure out what Sean could possibly gain from marrying her.
“Maybe he really likes you?” Wayne hesitated but still voiced the possibility.

“You’re wrong about me, Pearl. Do 1 look like that kind of person? You’re the daughter of my
Of course I want you to marry into a good family.”
beloved daughter, my granddaughter
Ezra looked kind and friendly, but Pearl was well aware that he had ulterior motives. “Oh? Is this how you treat your beloved daughter? By locking her up and making her disappear for years?”
Ezra’s face dropped and after some time, he smirked. “I guess you found out.”
