Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 687

Both Damian and Pearl were taken aback by Hugo's words.

"What do you mean?"

Pearl suddenly realized something and used her eyes to signal Hugo not to say more.

Hugo, however, remained indifferent and casually continued, "It's irresponsible to impregnate someone and then run away. If I'm

not good enough for Pearl, do you think you are?"

He ignored her and revealed the truth!

"What does this have to do with you?" Damian looked confused. After all, he had said it in front of Pearl, and it pained him.

"Then why do you care if | stay with Pearl? You should mind your own business. The child is gone, and you, as the father, are still

hiding in your country."

It was a harsh truth, and Pearl was sure Damian had never suffered such an insult in his life. But for sreason, there was silence

on the other end of the line. A heavy, suffocating silence.

Just when Pearl thought Damian was immersed in the pain of losing his child, he suddenly spoke with a hint of relief in his voice,

"Where is she?"

"Now you want to see her. Damian, you're not a real man. | don't believe it. With all your connections, how could you not find a

pregnant woman?" Hugo didn't answer his question and hung up the phone.

Pearl glared at him angrily, "Why did you hang up my call?" As she said that, she slapped him hard a few times.

Hugo had no intention of fighting back and wasn't even angry. He just tossed the phone onto the bed casually and asked, "You

should reconsider why you would have feelings for a man like that. He has no sense of responsibility at all."

Pearl could empathize with Damian. He didn't like Katie. He had been drugged and forced into a situation that led to the child. Even

someone like Damian might want to escape such a situation.

But Hugo was right. Damian didn't seem very responsible.

Pearl didn't want to explain further, so she just cleared her throat. "Let's put this aside for now. It has nothing to do with me."

"How could it have nothing to do with you?" Hugo stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek. "He's trying to get to my fiancee.

Don't tellyou have no idea what he's trying to do."

Pearl slapped his hand away and rubbed her reddened cheek. She took a few steps back, accidentally bumped into the edge of the

bed, and yelled out in pain. "Ouch... Hugo, stay away from me. Nothing good comes from you."

Gloom flashed across Hugo's face but was replaced by a hint of a smile. "Forget it. Since you won't listen to any advice, | won't give

you any. The engagement ceremony is tomorrow. You might have tto invite Damian to join."

Pearl raised her eyebrows, "How do you know he would come?"

Hugo shrugged. "If he's not willing to come, then he truly has no right to be with you. He's an irresponsible and oblivious coward."

Pearl couldn't see the connection between Damian's actions and her own choices. She curled her lips and pushed him out of her

room. "Leave. You're not allowed to enter my room without my permission!"

Hugo was surprised by her shoving. "Your door was unlocked."

"Then you should have knocked!"

The door slammed shut with a loud bang. Hugo stood at the door, dumbfounded.

Now that she was back home, Pearl could finally focus on preparing medicine for Gigi in peace.

She picked up her phone to search for information but accidentally opened the trending news list. When she saw the top news

headline, she was shocked.
