Chapter 651


    That voice made Jenny’s expression change drastically.


    In the distance, Hugo slowly came over. He walked past Jenny without noticing her and went straight to


    Pearl.


    “Are you full, Pea?” He touched Pearl’s hand and sounded loving. It felt like they had a deep

    rtionship.


    Jenny got angry but didn’t want to argue in public. She softened her tone and asked, “Why are you


    being distant, Hugo? Did I do something wrong?”


    Slowly, Hugo turned to Jenny indifferently. “I don’t have anything to do with you. Aren’t you in love with


    Rick? So why are you trying to get close to me?”


    Many cameras from the media were filming them during the fashion show, so Jenny couldn’t say much.


    She awkwardly smiled and said, “We’re still family, even though I like Rick. You don’t have to be so


    cold to me.”


    “That’s unnecessary.” Hugo forced a smile at Jenny.


    “Pea, I saw something interesting there just now-” Hugo began, but Pearl suddenly tensed up before he


    could finish.


    He looked over in the same direction and found Richard standing not far from them, looking grim.


    “Calm down. Didn’t he forget about his feelings for you?” Hugo leaned close and whispered to her


    gently, “He won’t mind even if we do something.”


    Pearl broke out in a cold sweat the moment she saw Richard. She could tell from his intense gaze that


    he was very angry and might want to hack Hugo into pieces.


    However, Hugo seemed oblivious. He moved closer to Pearl and nearly hugged her.


    Anxious, Pearl whispered to Hugo, “Okay, stop. Don’t get too close.”


    Hugo raised an eyebrow. “What’s the matter? You’re not still thinking about him, are you?”


    Pearl knew she couldn’t let Hugo discover that Richard had feelings for her again, or there might be


    trouble.


    “You’re mypanion today so we should be closer. I think it’s not out of line.” Hugo held her wrist and


    felt the smoothness of her skin. It moved him.


    Smiling,


    Richard, who had walked over, found Hugo holding Pearl’s wrist an eyesore. “It’s not a good idea to be


    so affectionate in public.‘

    Panicked, Pearl quickly pulled away and stood to the side. “No, we’re not.”


    Finally, Richard was satisfied.


    Hugo was sharp, and he began to suspect something. He wondered if Richard had regained his


    feelings for Pearl.


    His doubt grew, and he decided to test it. He pulled Pearl close and looked at Richard provocatively.


    “Rick, is it right for you to meddle in my rtionship with my partner?”

    All eyes were on the stage as the fashion show began. Richard, knowing they were alone, spoke


    honestly, “It’s because the woman standing beside you is my fiancee.”


    “What do you mean? Did you forget that you called off your engagement?” Hugo found it amusing and


    wondered why Richard was so forgetful.


    Pearl didn’t like bringing up that past affair. Although she felt hurt because of Richard’s indifference,


    she knew he had no feelings for her at the moment. She had left him cruelly, so his actions were


    reasonable.


    Richard confidently replied, “Why don’t you ask her who she’s going to choose? You or me?”
