Chapter 122


    “Hold on, I’m your boyfriend now. Shouldn’t we be spending time together?” Hugo wasn’t going to let


    her go, so he grabbed her wrist and whispered in her ear.


    Pearl felt ufortable with his touch and tried to break free, but his grip was firm.


    “I know you don’t have feelings for me, and you know why I’m with you.” Unable to escape red at


    him.


    his grasp, Pearl


    “I know. I’m trying to make you fall in love with me,” Hugo whispered in her ear and smiled. “Pearl, don’t


    make me angry, or you might regret it.”


    Pearl couldn’t help but think that this man was crazy. “Why are you so stubborn, Hugo? What have you


    turned into?”


    Hugo looked at her in disbelief and smiled. “Could it be that I’ve always been like this?”


    Pearl froze, not understanding what led a person who grew up in a perfect family to turn into someone


    like him.


    “Alright, let’s forget about it. You didn’t go out with mest time, but you can’t turn me down again.”


    Hugo was about to lead her out the door when his phone suddenly rang. It was an emergency surgery.


    The patient’s condition deteriorated, requiring immediate intervention.


    “I guess I won’t be able to go out with you this time either.” Hugo sighed with disappointment. Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    As for Pearl, she sighed as well, but it was a sigh of relief. She smiled and waved him off, “Go ahead,


    Hugo. Better not let your patient’s condition worsen.”


    “It’s too early to celebrate, Pearl. This is just a minor surgery that will be done in two hours.”


    After Hugo left, someone walked into the information department, and the door was left ajar. Seeing her


    chance, Pearl sl*pped in without being noticed.


    With Hugo upied in surgery, Pearl had the opportunity to search for the information she needed.


    The challenge was figuring out where it might be stored.


    Carefully avoiding any staff in the department, she moved stealthily, making no noise.


    The person who had entered before her had taken a bag of documents and left, closing the door


    behind him. That’s when Pearl reemerged from behind a bookshelf.


    There were about twenty cabs in the office, so Pearl had no idea where to start looking.


    She went through a few cabs, and an hour had already passed. If she continued at this rate, finding


    what she needed seemed unlikely.


    Pearl sighed and was considering an alternative approach when she noticed a pattern in the way


    information was stored. The first ten cabs were arranged alphabetically, but the remaining ten were


    organized by family names.


    Her eyes brightened as she had an idea of where to begin searching. However, after checking the


    cabs that might contain the files, she came up empty-handed.


    If her hunch was correct, the file she needed might be in Hugo’s office.


    Realizing that Hugo might have caught onto her n, she gave up her search, returned the cabs to


    their original state, and left the department.


    She then proceeded to Hugo’s office and thoroughlybed through it. Two hours passed, but she still


    couldn’t find what she was looking for.


    “Are you looking for this?” a voice suddenly asked.
