Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 597

Pearl found herself being pulled into the mansion, where she was compelled to go through the wedding ceremony with Sean. Eventually, she was led into their bedroom.

A couple of sturdy maids instructed her to take a seat by the bed and quietly left the room.

"What a hassle. Both Wayne and Damian aren't good," Pearl muttered, rolling her eyes.

Despite her foul mood, she kept her attention fixed on the door. If Sean dared to enter through that door, she wouldn't hesitate to use the dagger against him without mercy. After all, he had played dirty.

As Pearl contemplated dealing with Sean, she heard a creaking sound at the door. She quickly hid the dagger behind her back and stared at the door.

The door opened, revealing a familiar face.

"Hugo?! What are you doing here?"

Pearl sighed in relief, rising from her chair and causing the dagger in her hand to fall to the floor with a loud clang.

"If Sean hadn't proposed to you like a lunatic, I would never have shown up here," Hugo replied, his gaze shifting from her face to the fallen dagger. "Looks like you really didn't want to marry him."

Although Hugo had barged into the room, he strolled in casually as if it were no big deal. He sat next to Pearl.

"What are you up to?" Pearl didn't entirely trust Hugo, and she was convinced he was no better than Sean. She took a few steps back, putting some distance between them.

"Don't worry. I'm not here to hurt you. I'm here to help."

That was… terrifying.

"But why on earth are you here?" Pearl wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, watching Hugo closely.

"Didn't I tell you? I'm here to rescue you, no hidden agenda."

"Rescue me?" Pearl naturally didn't believe him. "We've been enemies for so long. You don't have to say these to deceive me. Are you trying to tell me that you've turned over a new leaf?"

Just a few days ago, Hugo had looked at her with disgust. Today, he seemed completely different, and his gloomy aura was gone.
