Chapter 688


    Pearl felt a pang in her heart, but since she was the one who pushed him away, she had no right to me him. She forced


    herself to keep her emotions in check and soon finished the medicine Gigi needed.


    She then went downstairs for dinner. However, she had no appetite, and it was clear in her distant expression.


    Hugo noticed her distraction and knocked on the table to bring her back to reality. "| know you won''t be able to ept the news,


    but reacting this way won''t change anything.”


    Pearl found hisment heartless. Why would he scold her when he saw her like that?


    She scoffed and ignored him, grabbing some bread and stuffing it into his mouth. "Eat your food. Don''t talk."


    Seeing Pearl''s outburst, Gigi became worried and quietly continued eating without saying a word.


    Realizing that her anger might be affecting Gigi, Pearl calmed down and turned her attention to her. She took out the medicine


    she had in her pocket. "Gigi, start taking this medicine today. With the lotion | gave you previously, your scars will fade away in


    about half a month."


    Gigi was ted and put down her fork to ept the medicine. "Thank you, Pea. I''ll take it diligently.”


    “Alright, we''re a family. There''s no need to be so formal." Pearl nced at Hugo when she said that and saw him eating as if he


    hadn''t noticed anything. This angered her, so she raised her foot and stomped it on his.


    Hugo, who was focused on eating, felt the force from her foot but didn''t show any reaction except for raising his eyebrows.


    "What''s wrong? Don''t you like the food?"


    Pearl smiled and said, "Hugo, when are you going to start treating my mom?" She had realized that he wouldn''t answer her in


    private, so she decided to ask him publicly.


    Hugo anticipated this and calmly looked at Beah, smiling. "I''ve been treating Aunt Beah since the first day.”


    Beah nodded in agreement and then nced at Pearl suspiciously. "Don''t you know about this, Pea?"


    Pearl gave an awkward smile. He had tricked her again. "| was busy and forgot about it, so | didn''t bring it up."


    Pearl quickly changed the subject, and when Beah lowered her head to eat, she stomped on Hugo''s foot again, this time with


    more force, as if asking him why he had lied to her.


    However, Hugo continued to ignore her.
