Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 692

Pearl couldn't deny that entering someone else's room without permission was wrong, but the shock of seeing her own medical report on Hugo's desk had left her feeling violated. She confronted him, asking, "Why do you have my examination report?"

Hugo's defensive tone softened, and he couldn't help but smirk slightly. "What's wrong? Can't I be concerned about you?"

"I don't need your concern. You're acting like a creep."

Hugo frowned. Despite being more forgiving, he found it hard to accept her words. "So, what are you trying to say?"

"I mean, you don't need to concern yourself with my health from now on." Annoyed, she grabbed her medical report from the desk and tore it in half.

Hugo remained silent for a moment before asking softly, "Do you have a solution to cure your illness?"

Pearl finally couldn't take it anymore. "This has nothing to do with you."

"Why not? You're my fiancee now. If anything happens to you, who am I going to marry?"

Pearl glared at him. "I only agreed to be engaged to you. Who said I was going to marry you?"

Hugo, somewhat resigned, rubbed his forehead and chuckled softly. "Well, let's make a deal. If I can cure your illness, you'll have to marry me."

"No way. You should just give up on that idea." Being engaged to him was already going against her wishes. If she married him, she would probably spend the rest of her life in misery.

Hugo continued to tease her, playfully bending down and saying, "What do you mean no way? Weren't you forced to be with me because of your mother's illness? Why are you unwilling to do it now, pretending to be all high and mighty?"
