Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 676

Chapter 676

w Amocking smile appeared on Hugo's lips: ''Why do you have to be so thorough? It pissed him off."

“Don't worry about it. I've promised you now, so you should cure my mother as soon as possible." Pearl lowered her head and took a deep breath, her eyes betraying a hint of sadness.

Hugo should be happy to hear that, but he felt a little annoyed. His gaze revealed a mix of complicated emotions. "So you only got engaged to me to save your mother, right?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Pearl retorted. Considering his previous behavior and how he had used this situation to manipulate her, was it even possible that she had feelings for him?

Hugo got the answer he had expected , and the remaining hope in his eyes shattered. "Okay, I get it. Once we're engaged, I will start treating her."

"My mom only has a little over a month left to live!"

Pearl was anxious. She had agreed to all of Hugo's conditions and ended her relationship with Richard just to expedite her mother's treatment.

However, Hugo seemed to be constantly delaying it.

Hugo noticed her icy glare, and it pained him further. "When do you want to get engaged then?"

"Three days from now. Three days should be enough for the preparations."

Since it was their engagement , Pearl felt the need to show Hugo some respect. After all, Hugo represented not only himself but also the Harrison family.
