Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 248

Pearl was shocked. "Hugo? Did you arrange to meet him?"

"I called him a while ago and asked to meet at 7 p.m. He agreed."

Pearl didn't know what Hugo was planning, so she was a little nervous. "I should go with you, just to be safe."

"Alright."

Richard drove to the agreed-upon location, a cafe near the office. When they entered, they saw Hugo wearing sunglasses and dressed inconspicuously, but they immediately recognized him.

Walking over, they found two cups of steaming coffee prepared for them.

"Yes, Richard, how can I help you?"

Pearl couldn't help but scoff. "Hugo, aren't you being a little phony?"

"Phony? Jumping to conclusions, Pearl? If I'm phony, then what's Mister Dustan?" Hugo sipped his coffee and smiled.

Richard's gaze was cold. "You've spent a lot of time with Dad, so wouldn't you know what kind of person he is?"

"I never questioned his character, but Richard, it's not a secret that he spoils you. There's no need to pretend to be a good person. Do you think it's fun to pretend to be nice and make me look ungrateful?" Hugo's usual gentleness had disappeared. What remained were his eyes filled with hatred.

"You can say whatever you want, but I'm now part of Lawson Enterprises. Since the corporate world is like a warzone, we're enemies now." Hugo stood up after saying that. "Alright, it's getting late. I have a meeting to attend."

Finally breaking his silence, Richard spoke up, "You're so childish, Hugo."

Hugo paused, then smirked. "Whatever."

After Hugo left, Pearl could see that Richard wasn't in a good mood. She tried to console him, "It's going to be fine."

"I hope so too, but Hugo will find a way to make the whole family his enemy. We're going to have a tough time after this."
