Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 673

Richard looked toward the door. "How is she?"

"You're not together anymore, so why do you care?" Katie didn't even glance at him and seemed quite triggered. She stood up,

visibly agitated. "I really don't understand why she's so into you. There are plenty of men out there, and you're just one of them. As

her ex, you did this to her without considering your past relationship?"

Katie was placing all the blon Richard!

Pearl frowned and scoffed. "Why didn't you mention the part where your sister keeps sticking to him like glue?"

Katie was seething with anger, her body trembling. "You have no right to speak here, you whore. Not only did you seduce my

sister's man, but you also seduced mine. How can someone as shameless as you even exist?"

Richard's face turned dark as his eyes gave out a chilling coldness. Enough, Katie!

Ww “What? Am | wrong?" Katie rolled her eyes and yelled.

Richard looked at her protruding belly, then lowered his voice. You're pregnant.

We should talk after your sister wakes up."

“Haha, you don't need to pretend to care! Just stay away from my sister! | don't want her to be upset when she sees you after

waking up." Katie suddenly calmed down and complained.

Pearl tugged at Richard's sleeve, signaling him to let it go.

"Fine, take care of your sister then." Pearl looked at Katie's belly, then offered a faint smile. "And take care of your child."

Katie held her belly after hearing that. "What? You couldn't get rid of my sister, so now you're targeting my child?"

“You need to tone down on your paranoia." Pearl grabbed Richard's arms and walked away. "Con, let's go."

They left the building and stood in the garden.

Richard said, "What's your plan now?"

Pearl looked at the offices nearby and smiled. "I'm going to ask the doctor how Jenny is doing."

Richard paused. They had chere to find out about Jenny's condition, and if they couldn't get information from Katie, they

would have to speak to the doctor.

They both nodded in agreement and went over together.

Pearl politely knocked on the door and, upon entering, saw Hugo nearby, going over the medical chart with the doctor.

Seeing Pearl entering with Richard, Hugo's eyes narrowed. "Oh, it's you." He straightened up, flexed his wrists, and said, "You're

here to ask about Jenny too?"

Pearl didn't quite know how to respond, but from Hugo's expression, it appeared he was aware of their situation — perhaps even

the complicated dynamics among the three of them.

However, he didn't expose her, leaving Pearl curious as to why.

Pearl regarded him with a quizzical look and asked, "How is she?"

“Just as you've seen. She sustained burns on most of her body, and her face is disfigured. She has multiple broken bones and a

concussion. To be honest, her survival is nothing short of a miracle. But her future remains uncertain. Her injuries are severe, which

could affect her lifespan.”

Hugo conveyed the grim prognosis with a tinge of remorse, but it was just that — no more than a clinical observation. There were

no discernible emotions, and his feelings for Jenny seemed to have vanished.
