The sudden outburst startled Pearl, causing her to briefly swallow her words. “Thank you,
Godfather. But I really want to return to my country now.”
Her desire to leave seemed to upset Reese. “You haven’t visited me often, and now you’re
in such a hurry to leave?”
Pearl smiled, trying to reassure him. “Godfather, it’s like this. Richard and I were stranded
there. I jumped into the sea, but I don’t know what happened to him.” She couldn’t bear
the uncertainty any longer. All she wanted was to return home and ensure Richard was
safe.
Reese sighed reluctantly, understanding her determination. “Alright, I’ll arrange everything
as quickly as possible. But you’ll have to spend some time with me. My disappointing son.
hardly ever comes home, and you’re the only one who keeps me company.”
He couldn’t hide his irritation when mentioning his son.

Although the tasks weren’t particularly complicated to handle, Pearl had nearly lost.
everything, and it would still take some time.
“Oh, I almost forgot!” Drew suddenly slapped his forehead. “Pearl, didn’t you say there’s
someone from the Waldorfs who looks exactly like me? What’s his name again?”
Conflicted, Pearl hesitated to answer, feeling that revealing this information might have
negative consequences. However, Drew had brought it up, and she couldn’t keep it secret.
She replied, “His name is Sean.”
Reese became confused upon hearing this. “What’s going on? Is there really someone who
looks identical to my son?”
“Well, they look exactly alike,” Pearl confirmed.
Hearing this, a thought dawned on Reese, and he stood up with excitement. “What? You
said he looks just like Drew?”
Pearl nodded. “But there’s a tear–like birthmark at the corner of his eye.‘
“A tear–like birthmark…” Reese’s mind raced back to a time when his wife had given birth
to twins. One of the babies was on the verge of death, and they had placed him in an
incubator. The doctor had later pronounced the baby’s inability to survive, leaving Reese
and his wife heartbroken.
But now, someone claimed there was a person who looked identical to his son. Naturally,
Reese was thrilled.
He couldn’t contain his excitement and exclaimed, “Where is he now? Is he at the Waldorf
Residence? I need to go there immediately. Can I see him right away

Pearl said calmly, “Godfather, we can’t be certain if Sean is truly your son or not. Please
don’t make any hasty judgments. One thing is for sure, though–he looks exactly like
Drew.”
The situation could turn into an absurd farce if Sean wasn’t Reese’s son. Reese might be
deeply disappointed.
However, he was beyond caring about that possibility. “No, there’s no mistake. The doctor
informed me about the tear–shaped birthmark at the corner of the child’s eye. It’s on the
right eve, isn’t it?”
Pearl nodded, her thoughts in turmoil because Reese was right. Sean did indeed have the
birthmark on his right eye. She couldn’t help but wonder if Sean was truly Reese’s son and
how Sean would react to such news.
Meanwhile, Reese became more excited, eager to expedite Pearl’s affairs so he could
return. with her and potentially reunite with his son.
