Chapter 680 "Want to know why?" Hugo gave her a mysterious smile that left her confused.
Pearl took a deep breath and asked, ��Yes, why?"
"| won't tell you!" Hugo stated before leaving without a second glance.
However, seemingly realizing something, he turned around and added, "
By the way, our engagement party got canceled so it will be rescheduled in two days. Please prepare again.��

"Can't we just skip the party? We were already engaged once, and everyone knows it.��
"That won't do. I'm aman of principles, and | have to see things through." Hugo furrowed his brows and shook his head,appearing deeply concerned about the matter.
