Chapter 333
“Your husband, Zachary, had been beating her, so she pretended to be sick, but she just didn’t want to
meet anyone,” Pearl revealed the painful truth.
Jenna immediately hugged Elise, holding her close for the first time in the past six months. She hadn’t
realized the extent of her daughter’s suffering.
Elise, seeing the guilt on her mother’s face, began to cry as well.
Jenna gently caressed Elise’s hair, her heart aching. “Thank you, Miss Pearl. I would never have
known how that monster treated Elise if it weren’t for you!”
“What do you plan to do now?” Pearl wanted to find a solution.
Jenna ran her fingers over Elise’s wounds, her expression turning resolute. “I’m going to file for a
divorce. Our marriage was just for show. I married him because I wanted Elise to have a good life,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbut… I’ve been blind to his true nature. How could I make such a terrible mistake?” “But we can’t let
Elise continue to suffer for no reason. We need to get something from Zachary,” Pearl suggested, her
mind racing.
“But… The Zimmers are one of the wealthiest families in Bodgow, and I’m just an ordinary person. I
wouldn’t stand a chance against them,” Jenna replied, wanting to just leave as soon as possible.
Glenn scoffed. “The Zimmers are nothing. They’re not even a tenth of my family’s wealth. Ellie is my
friend, and she has suffered enough. I’ll make him pay!”
“Yes, the last time he hit me, he was drunk and mentioned that he helped Lawson Enterprises evade
169 million in taxes during his time there. This could be something we can use against him,” Elise
revealed.
‘Lawson Enterprises?’ Pearl suddenly remembered that the company’s headquarters was in Bodgow.
Taking down Zachary could potentially expose Lawson Enterprises as well.
“It’s alright. With a snap of my fingers, I can bring him to his knees,” Glenn reassured Elise.” Pack your
things. After the divorce is finalized, you can stay at my villa. Don’t be shy about it.”
“Thanks, Glenn.” Elise’s tears started falling again.
To prevent any news from leaking, Pearl and Glenn pretended nothing happened and left the house
quietly.
After Pearl returned to the Jordans, she saw Richard in his room reading and recounted everything that
had happened.
“Lawson Enterprises evaded 169 million in taxes?” Richard raised an eyebrow, contemplating the
implications. “I didn’t think about this before, but if they managed to dodge taxes, he must have been
involved in even more illicit activities. Let me handle this. I’ll investigate and try to kill two birds with one
stone.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPearl nodded, appreciating that she didn’t need to involve Wayne in this matter.
“By the way, Master Jordan came by.”
“Why?” Pearl was nervous.
“He asked about my condition and suggested that if I were well, I should leave the house immediately.”
Pearl knew he would say that, so she dismissed it. “Ignore him. Just rest and leave when you’re fully
recovered.”
Richard smiled. “Are you saying we’re going to sleep together?”
“What?” Pearl didn’t take that into account, or rather, she had forgotten about it.
“There’s only one bed in this room. If you’re asking me to stay, does that mean we’ll be sharing it?”
