Chapter 674
Richard noticed Hugo''s change. Given his temperament, if he were aware of Jenny''s predicament , he would likely have
descended into a furious rage, seeking vengeance on anyone responsible.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
However, Hugo''s attention was now on Pearl. The way he looked at him had a hint of provocation, and it made him feel uneasy.
Taking a few steps forward, Richard positioned himself in front of Pearl. "Are you nning to save Jenny?"
Hugo shrugged. "She''s barely holding on. Even angels might struggle to save her, let alone me."
“What are you doing here then?"
“The EMTs found me listed as her emergency contact in her phone." Hugo nced at Richard mockingly. "Didn''t youe here
after receiving the message?"
Richard knew he deliberately made that remark to incite Pearl. His eyes briefly shed with an icy coldness, but it was quickly
reced by a touch of sarcasm on his lips. "I find it a bit inappropriate for someone like Pearl to stay with you. I''ll buy her a new
vi. In fact, I''ve already purchased one, and she''ll be moving out today.”
“T heard you recently acquired a new vi, right next to your own," Hugo responded without much surprise. He then turned his
teasing gaze to Pearl. "And you? Do you want to move out? Your mother and Gigi are still living with me."
Pearl knew this man was tantly threatening her. Her eyes darted back and forth between the two men, but it was Richard who
spoke next.
“They''ll move out as well."
Hugo looked troubled but squinted. "Oh, if that''s the case, Aunt Beah''s treatment might be affected."
Pearl couldn''t bear it any longer and blurted out, "Never mind, I''ll stay with him for now—"
Richard looked at her coldly, and she stopped talking.
There was little she could do in this situation. Tears welled up in Pearl''s eyes as she cried, "Why don''t you just kill me?"
Hugo, far from being upset, teased her with a smile. "| really don''t understand why you''re hesitating. You two have no
rtionship now, and he was the one who initiated the breakup. Why do you still let him affect you?"
Richard seethed with anger. "This is between us and none of your concern."
Two men were fighting for her, and the doctor found the situation quite surprising.
“Um... [think it would be best to continue this conversation outside ," the doctor interjected, breaking the awkward silence.
Pearl expressed her gratitude with a look. Yes, arguing here isn''t a good idea.
Let''s step outside.”
Richard grunted in agreement, while
