Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 363

Speaking of the devil, before Pearl and Richard could chat further, there was suddenly a bigger commotion at the door. Hugo, dressed in a white suit, stood tall and conspicuous.

However, instead of greeting Dustan, Hugo approached Pearl and Richard. "I heard from Jen that Pearl deliberately targeted her just now. What's the meaning of this?"

Jenny had apparently complained to Hugo about the incident, and he had come to scold Pearl.

How ridiculous!

"No, I didn't deliberately target her." Pearl yawned and said calmly, "She came over to provoke me, so I responded. It just so happens that her birthday gift to Mister Dustan turned out to be a fake."

Hugo forced a smile. "Even if her gift was fake, her intentions were good. You know she's a public figure, but you always humiliate her in public."

Pearl couldn't understand why she was in the wrong. Staring at Hugo with disdain, Pearl said harshly, "Hugo, it's your business if you want to defend her because you like her. But I don't. Please don't mention her in front of me again."

Pearl's unexpected harshness caught him off guard. Stiffening, he muttered, "What a vulgar woman you are!"

"Excuse me?" Suddenly, Richard's eyes turned icy. He stepped in front of Pearl, clearly displeased.

Hugo ignored him and coldly glared at Pearl before turning and walking over to Dustan.

Dustan, who had been busy attending to guests, heard that Hugo had arrived. He had mixed feelings when he saw him approaching.

"Dad, I'm here to celebrate your birthday with you."

Upon hearing that familiar word, Dustan's heart skipped a beat. "Hugo!"

The other Waldorfs weren't as cautious as Richard. Sean was skeptical, but Hanzel and Mobius had put their doubts aside. They approached Hugo and embraced him.

"I'm glad you're back."

"You'll always be our brother, blood or not."

Indeed, severing ties that had spanned decades wasn't that simple.

Touched, Hugo cried while reporters captured the moment with their cameras. Tomorrow's headlines were practically decided.

Pearl couldn't help but sneer at the irony of it all.
