Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 595

Pearl must be lying!

"That's enough. Quit with the lies," Hugo retorted coldly. "These tricks won't work on me."

Pearl found this man utterly baffling. She obviously saved him, and he recognized her, yet he pretended not to acknowledge it.

"Believe it or not," Pearl flexed her muscles and chuckled, "you're no longer the chubby kid from back then. You've turned into the scheming and ruthless Hugo!"

Hugo's defenses started to crumble. "You can't possibly be the same person from back then!" Even though a voice inside him shouted loudly that it was indeed Pearl, he couldn't believe it. Could the person he had been helping for all these years be an imposter?

A part of his heart shattered into pieces.

"Why? Don't tell me you think Jenny was the person who saved you."

Hugo's expression changed. "Alright, stop talking."

Seeing Pearl was about to continue pressing the issue, Hugo shook his head and hastily fled.

Pearl watched his strange departure and sighed. She had definitely saved the wrong person back then. If she had known that Hugo would turn out like this, she might have just watched the bullies torment him and applauded their efforts!

She looked in the direction he had gone and returned to her yard.

In the following days, Pearl spent her days consulting her mother about her illness and discussing escape plans with Wayne. In her free time, she talked on the phone with Damian, keeping him company and cheering him up.

Damian had been released a few minutes after Pearl left in the carriage. He was now standing outside the Jordan Residence, flexing his wrist. "I've been released. I'll find Wayne, and we'll rescue you together."

Pearl rolled her eyes. "Make sure to tell Wayne to try not to provoke anyone. You've seen the Jordans' guards. They're just as formidable as Evil Spirits." If something went wrong on Wayne's end, her chances of escaping might be jeopardized.

Damian nodded. He understood the gravity of the situation and wasn't in a playful mood. "Don't worry. I'll get you out safely."

Pearl cut off the communication on her end and lifted the veil on her head to look at her surroundings.

This wedding was being hailed as the wedding of the century in Bodgow, symbolizing the union of two prominent families, the Jordans and the Coopers. That was why the streets were filled with a bustling sea of people, all gathered to witness the spectacle.

Pearl herself couldn't quite decide how she felt about it all.
