Chapter 351

Suddenly, Raymond smiled as he didn’t expect such a reason. “Why?”

Seeing that they were alone, Ezra decided to share more. He began to explain slowly, “You see, I had another daughter aside from Pearl’s mother, but she was a recluse. Most people didn’t know about her, so they thought I had only one daughter, but…”

Ezra’s expression shifted, his gaze growing intense. “One night, Richard’s uncle took liberties with her when he was drunk, driving her insane. That very night, she jumped off a building and ended her own life. Given this history, I cannot allow Pearl to marry Richard under any circumstances.”

This tragic incident had been buried for a long time, and Ezra had always dealt with it coldly. Back then, he had made great efforts to send Richard’s uncle to jail and keep the matter hushed up, as it was a deeply embarrassing family affair. Consequently, the younger generation remained unaware of it.

A pang of sorrow gripped Ezra as he recounted this painful memory.

Raymond, sensing Ezra’s grief, found it inappropriate to dwell on the matter further. He offered some casual advice and took his leave.
