“I’ve seen your medical skills, Hugo. While you’re not bad, you’re nowhere near my level. Do you really
expect me to believe that only you can cure this illness?” Pearl naturally didn’t buy into Hugo’s claims.
If this disease could only be treated by him, it would imply that all the great doctors worldwide were
merely his followers.
“Believe it or not, this illness is quite unique. Currently, I’m the only one who possesses the knowledge
to treat it.” Hugo wore a confident smile, adding, “Otherwise, why would your grandfather have only
invited me to help treat your mother?”
A shiver ran down Pearl’s spine. She had to admit that Hugo had a valid argument.
“Nevertheless, whether she receives treatment and when is entirely up to me.” Hugo took a step closer,
a smug smile on his face as he loomed over Pearl. “If you ever cross me, I can’t guarantee your
mother’s survival.”
Pearl stood her ground, crossing her arms, showing no signs of vulnerability. “If you can’t cure it, you

Pearl was nearly choked, gasping for air. She coughed repeatedly, her face turning crimson.
After all, they were still within the Jordan Residence, so Hugo couldn’t take things too far. He released
his grip on Pearl when he saw her in distress.
Pearl fell to the ground due to the force.
Starting today, if you ever dare to lay a finger on Jenny again, I won’t show you any mercy.” His gaze
drifted downward, noticing Pearl’s slightly disheveled attire. Suddenly, he froze.” How…. How do you
have a birthmark that resembles a pear blossom on your chest?”
“You’re insane, Hugo!” Pearl looked up, shooting an enraged glare at Hugo Quickly, she rearranged her
clothing, preparing to stand up.
However, Hugo crouched down, forcefully pulling open her neckline to examine the birthmark on her
chest.
Pearl realized his intent and slapped him across the face. “Are you out of your mind?!” Even this slap

Initially, Pearl thought he was attempting to humiliate her, but seeing his serious expression while
inquiring about that memory lessened her anger somewhat.
“So what if I did? And what if I didn’t?”
