Chapter 603
“Why do you think I’ll agree to that?” Pearl leaned against the couch, a sneer on her face. She couldn’t
help but think that all the men in the Waldorf family were crazy. There didn’t seem to be a single normal
person among them, except for Mobius.
Hugo stared back at Pearl, smirking confidently. “Suit yourself. But remember, I’m the only one who
can cure your mother’s illness now. Do you want to see her die so soon?”
“The nerve!” Pearl couldn’t believe Hugo’s audacity. “Cure her illness? How are you going to do that?”
“Isn’t Simon your mentor? You can ask him to come and check on your mother. You’ll find out if I’m
telling the truth or not.” Hugo then leaned back on the couch opposite Pearl, crossing his legs
arrogantly.
Pearl’s heart sank as she considered Hugo’s words. She had already consulted her mentor, Simon,
about her mother’s condition, and it was a complex and unusual illness that she couldn’t treat on her
own. If Hugo had a solution, he could use it to manipulate her.
Hugo noticed Pearl’s hesitation and seized the opportunity. “Once you promise to get engaged to me,
we can go abroad, and I’ll easily cure your mother.”
Pearl was still skeptical. “What if you break your promise after I agree to get engaged to you?”
“No, I won’t do that.”
“Why?”
“I owe you a debt, and I won’t be so heartless as to let your mother suffer.”
Pearl chuckled as if she had heard a preposterous joke. “Don’t you think it’s very funny to mention that
now?”
“Believe it or not, there isn’t much time left for your mother.”
Pearl clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms as she asked, “How long does she have?”
“About three months. She’ll have an attack in three months, and at that point, not even I can
save her.”
Three months…
Pearl’s heart ached at the thought of losing her mother. She realized that her family was more
important to her than any romantic relationship, even if it meant giving up on being with Richard.
With determination in her eyes, she looked up at Hugo. “Alright, when are you going to take her out of
there?”
Hugo raised his brows and smiled. “So, you’ve agreed.”
“Cut the crap! When are you taking my mother abroad to cure her?” Pearl asked, her tone filled withnovelbin
disdain for the devious and scheming Hugo.
“It’s quite simple. Once I tell Master Jordan that I can save his daughter, he’ll hand your

mother over to me.” Hugo had studied psychology. Since Ezra had once lost his beloved daughter, he
would never give up on his only daughter.

Pearl discreetly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Hugo wasn’t completely heartless.” Okay, do it
as soon as possible,” she said, her emotions a mix of relief and determination.
“Oh? Are you in such a hurry to get engaged to me?” Hugo couldn’t resist teasing her.
Pearl shot him a fierce glare. “Don’t be ridiculous! I just want you to cure my mother as soon as
possible.” She then asked, “Where’s my room, by the way?”
