It's over. I finished the book and in the end it said that Rodger Chillingworth left most of his possessions for young Pearl who would have been around 15 when he died. The weird thing is that she was not blood related to him at all!
I think that Rodger did this because he felt that helping Pearl was like helping Hester. Through out the book Rodger is always helping Hester even though she cheated on him. When Hester and Mr. Dimmsdale decide to sail to Europe, somehow he finds out and decides to come with them because he can't bare to loose Hester.
