Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard)
Chapter 679

Chapter 679

Pearl couldn't think of anyone else apart from the woman in front of her who might want to harm the child. "Then tell me what would be my motive to harm you?"

Motive...

"You have so many motives. I told you I'll avenge my sister, so you must have been unhappy about that. Besides, you also like Damian, don't you?"

The mention of Damian left Pearl stunned.

Katie's eyes turned icy, brimming with resentment. "Just as I suspected.

You killed my child because you have feelings for Damian."

Pearl couldn't help but find this absurd. "I've lost my feelings for him a long time ago. I admit that I used to have feelings for him, but not anymore."

"who knows if that's true? You're always surrounded by men. If someone you had feelings for suddenly had a child with another woman, you might react differently and seek revenge." Katie was consumed by hatred, making it difficult for her to listen to reason.

Pearl rolled her eyes. This woman seemed to have completely lost her mind. "Your brain is clearly making things up. Did pregnancy make you lose some brain cells? You should get it checked."

"Pearl, stop being so arrogant. You should just kill me, or I will never let you get away with this as long as I'm alive!"

This woman was crazy!

Pearl realized that if she stayed any longer, Katie would likely continue to despise her. She couldn't be bothered to listen to her delusional rant and decided to leave.

"Stop!" Katie suddenly called out.

Pearl turned around to face her, her expression calm. "What?"

"About the child... Don't tell Damian for now." Katie's eyes welled up with pain as she touched her belly.

Pearl knew Katie was in a pitiful situation, but it wasn't her fault, and she didn't feel obligated to feel sorry for others.

"Do whatever you want. I won't tell him." Pearl turned and walked away.

As she stepped out, Hugo was waiting at the hospital entrance. There was something peculiar in his eyes when he saw her coming out. "Did she make things difficult for you again?" "Why do you care?" Pearl's irritation was evident. If it weren't for this engagement, none of this would have happened.

"You're my fiancee, so if she bullies you, I have to stand up for you."

Hugo stepped closer and attempted to pat her head, but Pearl swatted his hand away in disgust.

"Okay, let me tell you a secret."

Pearl glanced at him skeptically. "What secret?"

"T poisoned the child." Hugo flashed an unsettling smile.

Pearl didn't react immediately after hearing this revelation. After a long pause, her face was filled with shock. "Why did you do that?"

Hugo and Katie had no personal grudges, and he even used to have feelings for her sister...
