Chapter 692
Pearl couldn''t deny that entering someone else''s room without permission was wrong, but the shock of seeing her own medical
report on Hugo''s desk had left her feeling vited. She confronted him, asking, "Why do you have my examination report?"
Hugo''s defensive tone softened, and he couldn''t help but smirk slightly. "What''s wrong? Can''t | be concerned about you?"
"| don''t need your concern. You''re acting like a creep."
Hugo frowned. Despite being more forgiving, he found it hard to ept her words. "So, what are you trying to say?"
"| mean, you don''t need to concern yourself with my health from now on." Annoyed, she grabbed her medical report from the
desk and tore it in half.
Hugo remained silent for a moment before asking softly, "Do you have a solution to cure your illness?"
Pearl finally couldn''t take it anymore. "This has nothing to do with you."N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
"Why not? You''re my fiancee now. If anything happens to you, who am | going to marry?"
Pearl red at him. "| only agreed to be engaged to you. Who said | was going to marry you?"
Hugo, somewhat resigned, rubbed his forehead and chuckled softly. "Well, let''s make a deal. If | can cure your illness, you''ll have
to marry me."
"No way. You should just give up on that idea." Being engaged to him was already going against her wishes. If she married him,
she would probably spend the rest of her life in misery.
Hugo continued to tease her, yfully bending down and saying, "What do you mean no way? Weren''t you forced to be with me
because of your mother''s illness? Why are you unwilling to do it now, pretending to be all high and mighty?"
“Remember to keep your promise," was all Pearl said in response. The words ‘high and mighty’ stung her deeply, but she
decided not to engage in further argument. She gave him a disdainful look and left the room.
As she walked out, she noticed Gigi passing by with a tray. Gigi''s expression seemed uneasy and nervous.
“What''s wrong, Gigi?" Pearl asked in a softer tone, concerned about her.
"I''m fine. | just hurt myself while preparing the medicine," Gigi quickly came up with an excuse.
Pearl examined Gigi''s right hand, which appeared reddened. "Be careful next time, okay? I''ll get some ointment from my room.
You just need to apply it a few times, and it''ll be fine."
"Okay. Thank you, Pea." Gigi smiled sweetly.
Pearl then returned to her room,
while Gigi''s heart remained unsettled.
