Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 674

Chapter 674

Richard noticed Hugo's change. Given his temperament, if he were aware of Jenny's predicament , he would likely have descended into a furious rage, seeking vengeance on anyone responsible.

However, Hugo's attention was now on Pearl. The way he looked at him had a hint of provocation, and it made him feel uneasy.

Taking a few steps forward, Richard positioned himself in front of Pearl. "Are you planning to save Jenny?"

Hugo shrugged. "She's barely holding on. Even angels might struggle to save her, let alone me."

“What are you doing here then?"

“The EMTs found me listed as her emergency contact in her phone." Hugo glanced at Richard mockingly. "Didn't you come here after receiving the message?"

Richard knew he deliberately made that remark to incite Pearl. His eyes briefly flashed with an icy coldness, but it was quickly replaced by a touch of sarcasm on his lips. "I find it a bit inappropriate for someone like Pearl to stay with you. I'll buy her a new villa. In fact, I've already purchased one, and she'll be moving out today."

“T heard you recently acquired a new villa, right next to your own," Hugo responded without much surprise. He then turned his teasing gaze to Pearl. "And you? Do you want to move out? Your mother and Gigi are still living with me."

Pearl knew this man was blatantly threatening her. Her eyes darted back and forth between the two men, but it was Richard who spoke next.

“They'll move out as well."

Hugo looked troubled but squinted. "Oh, if that's the case, Aunt Beah's treatment might be affected."

Pearl couldn't bear it any longer and blurted out, "Never mind, I'll stay with him for now—"
