Chapter 686
While Pearl pondered, Gigi, who happened to pass by, reached out and patted her shoulder. "What's on your mind, Pea?"Seeing Gigi's innocent smile, Pearl suddenly felt happier. "Nothing. | was just wondering why the food smells so bad today."Suddenly, a bell pepper hit her head.
Turning in the direction of the pepper, Hugo stood not too far away, wearing an eerie smile.
“What did you say?"
Pearl realized she had spoken too loudly, so she quickly lowered her voice and glanced at Gigi. The two of them exchangedlooks and smiled.
"| think it's pretty good..." Gigi sniffed, looking suspicious.
Pearl smiled and patted her head. "Okay, | was just kidding. Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner. | need to go to myroom."
"Is there any progress with the medicine?" Gigi's eyes lit up. She was smart enough to guess it right away.
“Well, don't spoil the surprise." Pearl pouted and tousled her hair.
Gigi touched her face, covered in spots, and shook with excitement. "Thank you, Pea!"
"Don't mention it." Pearl was glad. "It's all for you. You wouldn't have gotten hurt if you hadn't saved me."
Gigi nodded and scratched her head shyly. "I'll wait patiently."
"Good." Pearl returned to her room feeling content.
As soon as she stepped into her room, her phone rang.
Pearl took out her phone and saw two words on the screen: Damian Scott. She hesitated but eventually answered it."Where are you?" Damian's words sounded like an order.
Pearl pretended to be annoyed. "What's with the tone?”
