Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 117

"Stop. You want to grab a bite, right? Let's go." Pearl yanked Hugo's sleeve to break the awkward situation.

"Alright, Rick. We'll go first," Hugo said to Richard.

Richard watched them leave the hospital, hand in hand.

But as soon as they stepped outside, Pearl withdrew her hand from Hugo's grasp.

"Why? Are you mad?" Hugo kept his smile even when she was angry. "I know you like Rick, but you're my girlfriend now. You can't be mad at me because of another man."

Pearl regretted asking for Hugo's help. "Are you enjoying this, Hugo?"

"Yes, I am," he replied, clearly pleased with his progress.

"What's the point of all this? There's no future for us."

However, Hugo remained undeterred. "I can make you fall in love with me in three months."

"That will never happen."

Did Hugo take Pearl as a love-struck fool? She was certain that it wouldn't happen.

"Let's give it a try."

Stepping back, Pearl continued, "It's impossible between us, so you better give up. I won't have dinner with you. I'm not hungry."

"Come with me. You know what will happen if I get mad." Hugo would not take no for an answer.

"I'm a patient, and I've been feeling unwell lately. Even the doctor advised that I stay in bed, So, I can't go with you."

Raising his brows, Hugo refuted, "I'm a doctor."

"Hugo, stop pushing your luck."
