Chapter 1224 "I thought I was going to die. Now that I survived, don't you think that's a miracle? It's like a message from above, tellingI'm meant to keep living. But I can't help feeling angry because those who hurthaven't paid for what they did." Lorrie's words haunted Pearl for three days.

During a meeting, Pearl's phone rang. It was Esther, so she excused herself to answer, knowing Esther wouldn't call without a good reason.

After picking up, she heard Esther crying, "Pearl, I feel like there's no point to life." Pearl had never heard her so sad. "What happened? Why are you talking like this?" "James is going to get married to someone else," Esther whispered. "He said I should just marry whoever I want and forget about him." Pearl was shocked. Why would James say that? She didn't want to believe it, but Esther was clearly distressed and needed help.

"Do you know who he's engaged to?" Pearl asked.

Esther sobbed as she answered, "Yes, his first love." Pearl turned pale. She had missed something important when she checked on James's past. This was a big oversight.

She had to confront James about this.

With Esther being overseas and not in a good mental state, Pearl knew she had to handle this without her. After comforting Esther, she ended the call.

The assistant asked after seeing her hang up, "Miss Pearl, can we continue with the meeting?" "Postpone it for now. We'll continue it when I'm back," Pearl decided, then had a thought. "Have Wayne handle it over a video call." The assistant looked troubled. "But he's out of the country." "Then call him," Pearl insisted.

The assistant hesitated. "But..." "Just do it," Pearl said firmly before leaving.

At the entrance, Summer was dozing off but snapped to alertness when she noticed Pearl walking in." What are you doing?"
