"Since there's a scapegoat here, why shouldn't | take advantage of it?"
Hugo didn't care who took the fall. If Winona hadn't locked them up, he wouldn't have considered this. Killing Richard and blaming
Winona was a perfect plan to clear his name. Why not go for it?
"You're heartless." Pearl recoiled, accidentally stepping into a mud pit.
"Alright, don't even think about resisting anymore. | told you | won't hurt you. Let's get to the car. It's pouring, and you'll catch a
cold," Hugo said, moving closer.
Pearl slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me. You're disgusting."
"Still findgross?" Hugo's tone turned icy.

reaction.
Sure enough, Hugo took the bait. "Gross? Do you think I'm gross? Everything I've done, it's all for you. | have to get rid of him just
to have you. Once he's out of the picture, you'll be mine. Do you know how long I've been waiting for this moment?" Hugo stepped
closer, gripping her hand firmly. "You have no idea how long I've waited for this."
Pearl glared at him. "What did you do to Richard?"
"Nothing yet. My men are waiting to grab him. | won't spare him," Hugo said, describing his gruesplans.
Hugo's description was so gruesand disgusting that Pearl vomited at the thought.
"Alright, you don't want to hear this. Con, let's get in the car. There's water inside. You'll feel better after drinking." Hugo
picked her up.
Pearl struggled for a moment. Realizing she had exhausted herself from running, she stopped resisting and began to think of a
plan. Richard should be able to hold on for a while...
As if sensing Pearl's thoughts, Hugo chuckled and shook his head. "Stop thinking about it. No matter what tricks you try, Richard
won't make it."
Pearl suddenly looked at him with determination. "What if | agree to be with you?"
"It won't change anything. Once Richard's gone, you're mine. And if you makeangrier, he'll suffer more and be chopped into
pieces," Hugo threatened.
Pearl was shocked. This guy was indeed a cunning old fox.
