Became A Queen After divorce

After hearing her words, Sam’s lips twitched slightly.

“Don’t worry, even if you die, I won’t. Hold on to me, and we’ll jump together when I count to three.”

“Okay.”

Pearl let go of his hand and instead wrapped her arms around his waist from the front.

This posture brought her entire body close to his, and at the moment her cheek touched the man’s chest, she heard his clear heartbeat.

For some reason, her face grew even redder, and she shyly said, “Sam, your heartbeat is so fast, it’s almost catching up to mine.”

At the moment she pounced over, Sam’s heart began to panic, experiencing this feeling for the first time in his over thirty years of life.

It was as if something beyond his control was wildly growing.

“If a person’s heart doesn’t beat, wouldn’t that mean they’re dead? Since you’re ready, let’s begin.”

“Begin what?”

Before she could react, her body flew off the balcony, plummeting downwards.

So this is what losing gravity feels like…

The firelight reflected in his cold pupils, forming sparkling stars. Pearl stared blankly at his handsome face so close to her, momentarily forgetting her fear.

At that moment, Sam’s lips moved slightly, but she couldn’t hear over the loud wind.

“What did you say?”

Sam smiled. This smile was different from his usual protective facade; it was a genuine smile from the heart.

“It’s nothing, as long as you’re not afraid.”

As their bodies rapidly descended, Sam glanced sideways and saw that the fire brigade had already set up air cushions.

He quickly adjusted, flipping their bodies midair so that he would land first to cushion her fall.

“They really jumped!”

This thrilling scene prompted onlookers to scream nervously.

Some timid women and children even covered their eyes, unable to watch.

After a loud noise, the inflatable cushion safely caught them, sinking in the middle.

“Quick, call an ambulance.”

The next morning, the television was reporting on the fire that occurred last night.

[It is reported that the owner of the inn, named Mollie, female, thirty-eight years old, has been widowed for many years. The inn was built with her late husband’s inheritance…]

[The fire caused significant casualties, with two people missing and thirteen dead, seven seriously injured.]

[As for the specific cause of the fire, the police are actively investigating. However, the current speculation is that it was caused by a candle accidentally tipping over.]

Pearl turned off the TV and took out the delicious breakfast she brought from the plastic bag, arranging it on the small table one by one.

She said to the man on the sickbed, “You’ve just woken up, are you hungry? Look at all the delicious food I bought for you. Which one do you want to eat first?”

At this point, she paused, blushing and whispering in his ear.

“Or maybe you want to eat first…”

Before she could finish the word “me,” Sam quickly signaled to his subordinate.

Seeing this, the henchman hurriedly approached and took the bowl and chopsticks from her hands, jokingly saying,

“Ahem… Miss Pearl, you’ve gone to a lot of trouble. Let me take care of Mr. Hurst.”

Sam also took the opportunity to say, “Miss Pearl, if you’re free, please go back. I’m sure Mr. Gilliam must be worried about your safety.”

After saying so much, he just wanted her to leave quickly.

Pearl didn’t understand what was going on with Sam. Just last night, he willingly risked his life to enter the fire for her, regardless of his own safety.

But now, just a few hours later… he turned into this cold and distant person.

Could it be because he’s shy?

Yes, it must be.

Last night, it was just the two of them, but now there’s another subordinate.

“Don’t worry, I don’t have anything to do right now. If my dad knew I was taking care of you, he would be very happy.”

“If he misses me, he will definitely come to the hospital to find me himself. By the way, you can also take the opportunity to boast to him, there’s no need to be polite anyway, he has plenty of money.”

“Of course, if you want anything else, it’s not impossible. I am his biological daughter, my life is more valuable than anything else.”

Every word of her message fell into the ears of someone nearby.

Upon hearing that his daughter was in trouble, Declan rushed to the hospital to see her.

Just as he arrived at the door, he heard his precious daughter teaching Sam how to boast to him?

He instantly laughed, holding his cane in his hands and lightly tapping the floor a few times, complaining to Brody behind him, “Look at this… raising a daughter is troublesome, she hasn’t even married yet and she’s already helping others calculate her dad’s benefits.”

Brody knew Declan was just joking and didn’t take it to heart at all.

So he echoed with a smile.

“Miss Pearl inherited her father’s character, loyal and grateful.”

“And she didn’t say anything wrong. Compared to money, Miss Pearl’s safety is the most important.”

“I believe that even if Miss Pearl doesn’t say it, Master, you won’t treat Mr. Sam unfairly.”

…

Brody’s words hit Declan’s heart.

How could he blame Pearl? When he learned that the inn she was staying at had caught fire, he stayed up all night worrying.

“You understand me the best. Let’s go in and see how the boy is doing.”

“Yes.”

Sam noticed two figures at the door and looked up, only to see Declan and Brody, both old men.

He tried to sit up to greet them, but his injuries made it difficult for him to move.

“Mr. Gilliam…”

At the next moment, he was pressed back onto the bed by a small hand, and Pearl glared at him fiercely.

“Hey, what are you moving around for? What if your wound opens up?”

Seeing his daughter’s fair hand placed on Sam’s chest so blatantly, Declan felt a bit uncomfortable.

“Yes, Sam, you don’t need to be polite. Resting and recuperating are more important.”

“And Pearl, could you move aside and let me sit for a while? I’m a bit tired after walking all the way here.”

Little did he know that Pearl reluctantly exposed his “scheme”.

“Dad, you took a car when you went out, and there’s an elevator from the lobby to the ward. You only walked a few steps during this time, and you’re tired?”

“You should exercise more to prevent osteoporosis in old age.”

Declan’s main purpose was to keep her away from Sam.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. To ease the tension, Brody quickly changed the subject.

“Ahem… Miss Pearl, Mr. Gilliam was worried about you all night.”

Upon hearing this, Pearl was immediately moved to tears.

She got up and brought another chair to the bedside, showing great hospitality.

“Dad, you sit here. This way, the two of us can visit Sam at the same time.”

Sam was at a loss for words.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
