“Oh? If you like Jenny that much, why would you want her to end up with Richard?”
Huge cast his gaze downward for a moment. “Because love is about giving”
‘Bullsh*t,” Eric thought, unconvinced. He suspected Hugo’s intentions, thinking that the latter intended
to take Jenny away from Richard when he had nothing left. But now wasn’t the time!
“Alright, so how do you propose we do this?” Hugo’s plan seemed devious, and Eric was growing
impatient.
Hugo sensed Eric was tempted and seized the moment. “The first step is to take down Waldorf
Enterprises. Do you think Pearl would stay with Richard if he had no money?”
“You seemed to have been planning this for a long time. You and Richard were brothers for twenty
years but you have no regard for that at all.” Eric was taken aback.
“Forget about it. I have a target to achieve, and nothing else matters,” Hugo replied confidently, feeling
one step closer to his victory.
Eric’s anger flared, and he realized that Hugo’s ruthless pursuit of power had led him down a dark path.
“Do you think I’m like you?” Eric kicked Hugo off the bed, and he fell to the floor, n*ked and vulnerable.
Hugo scrambled to cover himself, looking pathetic.
“Why are you so cruel? People like you should suffer a hundredfold!” Eric thought how sad Pearl would
be and wanted to tear Hugo to pieces. He then made a call, and a group of men in black entered the
room. “Drag this man out and don’t let him put on any clothes!”
Hugo protested desperately, realizing he was in a vulnerable position. “Don dare touch me!”
“Your actions were despicable. Even if I spare you, Richard won’t.” Eric smirked, relishing in Hugo’s
humiliation.
“Don’t touch me! None of you should touch me!” Hugo knew he couldn’t win against them and was
thrown out onto the street, completely exposed.
Jenny wanted to help Hugo but was too afraid of Eric. She hugged herself, trembling, and dared notnovelbin
speak a word.
the hook!” Eric’s voice was filled with rage as he choked Jenny.
Tears welled up in Jenny’s eyes, but she managed to respond with fear in her voice. “Yes, of course.”
But deep down, the thought of Pearl consuming Eric’s thoughts filled her with rage.
Eric pushed Jenny onto the bed, wiped his hands in disgust, and summoned a maid. “Lock her up.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Until your face heals, don’t try any tricks,” Eric warned Jenny before leaving.

In the hospital, Richard paced anxiously outside the operating room.
A doctor emerged and approached him. “Fortunately, the patient managed to hold her breath
underwater long enough not to ingest too much water. She’s now in stable condition, and you can see
her.”
Richard’s knitted brows finally relaxed. “Thank you, doctor.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Pearl was placed in a regular hospital room, but Richard didn’t want her to be disturbed by any noise.
He arranged for a VIP room to ensure her comfort.
