Even the faintest glimmer would've been enough. Just as I was about to spiral into a complete mental breakdown, a sudden thought sparked in my mind. "That's right! The luminescent pearl!" On the exact day I agreed to leave everything behind and run away with Celia, she had gone to an auction and bought a flawless, one-of-a-kind luminescent pearl for a staggering 30 million dollars, presenting it to me as a token of her devotion.

I wonder what she would say if she saw us now.” The room went quiet for a second too long. Patricia looked down. Harold cleared his throat. Then fake Pearl smiled softly at me. “She’d be proud of you,” she said. “For taking care of everyone.” Something about that sentence felt rehearsed.

“Look, you are too smart. I could not just do something that… you would expect. You didn’t know about the purple pearls.

Purple pearls are rare in this kingdom. Not just anyone can have them. I knew that Rezef would find the first pearl

Andrew shook his head, "I already said that authentication requires thorough investigation, digging deep until you find the true treasure. You were blind to see this as just an ordinary bronze statue, calling it trash. But you failed to recognize this priceless pearl inside. It only proves you're nothing but hot air!" At the mention of the priceless pearl, many people were visibly shocked.

I cannot live without you. The same litany. The same vows. The same love that had choked me for five years. "Tell him," I said slowly, pressing my bleeding palm against the cold glass of the porthole, watching the moonlight fracture through the red. "Tell him... I took the blank paper. Tell him I wrote the ending." "Signora—" "And Maria?" I leaned my forehead against the glass. The Atlantic roared beyond, indifferent. "Tell him the pearls were a gift. Not for remembrance. For weight. To remind him that even the most beautiful things can strangle."

Pearl looked up to the heavens again and said, "I could be wrong, Lord...it might just be Justin that finally kills me." .....

She stepped forward and suggested, “Pearl, why are you doing this to yourself? Listen to me and eat something first…” “I don’t want to eat!” Pearl roared with bloodshot eyes, “I’ve become Bassburgh’s biggest joke. How could I live on to meet any other people!?”

"Okay then, I will give you a trial." Pearl's laughter, a melodic sound that was both quirky and charming, filled the air as she joked, "I will do my best not to fail you, sir." Eden's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled inwardly, his sharp jawline relaxing into a gentle curve. As he gazed at Pearl, he found himself captivated by her radiant smile. Her bright blue eyes sparkled like sapphires, and her delicate features seemed to glow with an inner light.

My pulse quickens as I wait for him to say more. "Bali was a good place for that," he continues. "Do you know the story about pearls?" I shake my head, clueless about what he meant. "Pearls form in deep water, preventing the mollusk from being hurt by a foreign object," he says. "Growing and protecting it, which creates pearl over time." I raise my brow, not expecting him to know about jewellery. But then, is there anything that this guy doesn't know about? "There's so much about purity and strength behind it."
