Became A Queen After divorce

“Miss Pearl, spare us! We were just talking nonsense and didn’t mean to insult you.”

“Yes, Miss Pearl, we know we were wrong. We won’t dare to do it again.”

“Miss Pearl, please don’t be angry. I have elderly parents and young children to support.”

Pearl felt embarrassed for them as they cried like children. She snorted in annoyance. “Alright, shut up! A real man takes responsibility for his actions. You didn’t say anything wrong.”

“I’m not as capable as my sister. I just happened to be born into a good family. These are all facts.”

The subordinates were speechless.

Miss Pearl, your words scare us even more. It would be better if you just punished us.

Pearl was also frustrated. She was telling the truth, but why didn’t they believe her?

“Forget it, talking to you is a waste of time. Let me ask you, who sent you to follow me?”

One of the subordinates quickly explained, “Miss Pearl, don’t misunderstand. We weren’t following you; we were protecting you!”

Pearl glared at him.

“Fine, then tell me, who sent you to ‘protect’ me? Was it Sam or… that person?”

She didn’t want to mention that person because she was in a bad mood, so she hoped it was Sam’s idea.

The truth was bound to disappoint her.

Another subordinate, oblivious to Pearl’s feelings, said boldly, “Mr. Hurst is still in the hospital and has no time for these trivial matters. It was Mr. Gilliam who instructed us to follow and protect you.”

“Trivial matters!” Pearl put her hands on her hips in anger and glared at the man.

He swallowed hard, wondering if he had said something wrong.

The other two looked at him as if he were an idiot, silently questioning how he could survive in society with such low emotional intelligence.

Taking a deep breath, Pearl had an idea for the perfect punishment.

“You! Stand up. Do you see that roller coaster?”

The man nodded, not understanding her intention but answered honestly:

“I see it.”

“Go ride it twenty times. Not one less.”

Twenty times!

No way, he had a fear of heights.

Just as he was about to protest, Miss Pearl handed a stack of tickets to another man.

She instructed, “You two supervise him. If he misses even one ride, you can leave the Gilliam family.”

The two instantly perked up.

“Yes, we won’t miss a single ride. We won’t let Miss Pearl down.”

Pearl turned and left, satisfied.

After playing all day, she was tired and planned to take Sasha to a nearby food stall for some ice cream while watching the next performance.

Meanwhile, the friendship boat capsized quickly. To avoid being kicked out of the Gilliam family, the two men escorted their friend to the roller coaster.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Before leaving, they couldn’t help but gloat. “Brother, didn’t you say you’ve never been to an amusement park because your family is poor? Today you’re in luck; Miss Pearl is treating you to have fun.”

“Don’t do this, brother. We’re good friends. Remember when your socks had holes? I mended them for you.”

“I know, so when you survive this, I’ll buy you a new pair of socks.”

Nothing more to say. Time to go.

As the ride started, a loud wail echoed from the roller coaster.

The man’s cries were so pitiful that people around kept turning to look at him.

Pearl put down her binoculars and laughed heartily.

“Hahaha, does he need protection even when fighting?”

Sasha sighed discreetly. In her three-year-old eyes, Pearl sometimes seemed more childish than she was.

“Pearl, let’s eat quickly. We’ve been out for a long time; Giana will worry about us.”

“Alright, after this shaved ice, we’ll go back. You’re still young; eat fewer egg tarts.”

Sasha immediately put down her spoon.

Pearl thought to herself, “If I ever have a daughter, she must be as beautiful and well-behaved as Sasha. Wait a minute, I don’t even have a boyfriend yet. Why am I thinking so far ahead?”

Shocked by her own thoughts, she shook her head and reminded herself:

Stop thinking! Men are no good! Marriage leads to no good end! Eating well and sleeping soundly is the happiest thing in life.

Long after they left, the man with the fear of heights finally finished his twenty rides on the roller coaster.

When his two friends went to help him up, they found him foaming at the mouth and unconscious.

“Hang in there, brother. You haven’t told me your bank card password yet.”

“And your favorite game just released new skins. Looks like I’ll inherit your account.”

As soon as they finished speaking, the unconscious man opened his eyes weakly and muttered:

“Help me up; I can still fight!”

School: After breaking ties with Pearl and falling out with her family, Ruth had nowhere to go after leaving the hospital. She had no choice but to return to school.

As soon as she reached the dormitory door, she saw her belongings thrown out, even her underwear lying openly on the hallway floor.

Surrounded by classmates who looked at her with disdain and whispered among themselves:

“Oh my God, I never thought she was such a vain person! Her family is so poor they live in the slums, yet she buys fake goods to show off.”

“Exactly! Just thinking about her scavenging for food in the trash makes me sick. No wonder she always smells sour; it’s the smell of garbage!”

“And last time she lied about her mom working as a fashion designer at Fustroydor. I later asked my relatives; there’s no such company!”

“A fashion designer? That’s hilarious! She’s just a lowly prostitute.”

Rumors were like cold frost, freezing her heart.

Each word was like a sharp blade cutting through her soul.

At that moment, Ruth’s confidence and pride built over three years were shattered beyond repair.

She stood dazed among the crowd, listening to their insults, not understanding why this was happening.
