Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 678

Chapter 678

The crowd rushed over, and Pearl suddenly had a bad feeling, prompting her to stand up and follow them.

Lying on the ground was Katie, blood pooling around her.

Pearl, using her medical knowledge , suspected that Katie might have suffered a miscarriage. She immediately dialed 911 and then

checked her breathing. However, there were indications of poisoning alongside the signs of a miscarriage.

Katie struggled to stay conscious and squinted at Pearl. "Pearl..." "What is it?" Pearl leaned closer, placing her ear near Katie's

mouth to listen carefully.

"Save my baby... Please..." Katie's hand trembled as it rested on her lower abdomen.

Pearl's face turned grave. "We'll have to wait and see what the doctor says when we get to the hospital."

Hearing this, Katie's eyes gradually lost focus, and she eventually lost consciousness.

The ambulance soon arrived. Pearl and Hugo abandoned the engagement ceremony to accompany Katie to the hospital.

Their engagement was put on hold * In the hospital's emergency room, Pearl anxiously stood guard outside the door.

Hugo remained relatively unaffected , leaning against a nearby bench and observing Pearl. "Why are you so concerned ? It's not

your child."

Pearl grew increasingly irritated as she watched Hugo seemingly enjoying the chaos without taking it seriously.

"If something happens to the child, Katie might do something to retaliate."

Hugo casually crossed his legs and toyed with his phone. "If she seeks revenge, let her. Don't worry about what she might do to

you. | won't let her get away with it. After all, you are my fiancee now."

The absurdity of his statement left Pearl speechless. What was the point of saying that?

She couldn't be bothered to continue the conversation with him and simply stared up at the "IN OPERATION" sign overhead.

Soon, the red light switched off, and a doctor cout. Glancing around, he inquired, “Who are the family members?"

Pearl took a few steps forward. "There aren't any family members present, so for now, you can considerone."

The doctor, seeing her anxiety, sighed and shook his head. "The child couldn't be saved."

Pearl's heart sank. "Is there no other way?"

"She was seriously poisoned, and it spread to the uterus. If we tried to save the child, it would be born with poison in its system

and could have deformities."

Pearl frowned, paused for a moment, and then made her decision. "I understand. Thank you, doctor."

* Following her treatment, Katie's condition improved, and she was moved to a general ward. When Pear! visited her, a nurse was

administering medication.

Looking at her flat belly, Pearl felt a pang of regret. She placed the fruits she had brought on the nearby table, but before she could

set them down, Katie pushed them off the table.

"Get out!"

The nurse, who was in the midst of giving medication, was startled, causing her hands to tremble and nearly drop the pills.

Katie couldn't hide her anger. When she saw Pearl, she seemed to have an epiphany and spoke harshly, "Didn't | tell you to leave?"

Pearl calmly responded, "l understand that you're grieving about losing your child, but this has nothing to do with me."

"You're still trying to deny it? Has your conscience disappeared, Pearl?"

Katie touched her belly, and her heart brimmed with hatred. "You just can't stand to seedoing well so you took the chance to

drugand poison my child!"
