Female Novel
Chapter 692
Pearl couldn't deny that entering someone else's room without permission was wrong, but the shock of seeing her own medicalreport on Hugo's desk had left her feeling violated. She confronted him, asking, "Why do you have my examination report?"
Hugo's defensive tone softened, and he couldn't help but smirk slightly. "What's wrong? Can't | be concerned about you?""| don't need your concern. You're acting like a creep."Hugo frowned. Despite being more forgiving, he found it hard to accept her words. "So, what are you trying to say?"
"| mean, you don't need to concern yourself with my health from now on." Annoyed, she grabbed her medical report from thedesk and tore it in half.
Hugo remained silent for a moment before asking softly, "Do you have a solution to cure your illness?"Pearl finally couldn't take it anymore. "This has nothing to do with you."
"Why not? You're my fiancee now. If anything happens to you, who am | going to marry?"
Pearl glared at him. "| only agreed to be engaged to you. Who said | was going to marry you?"
Hugo, somewhat resigned, rubbed his forehead and chuckled softly. "Well, let's make a deal. If | can cure your illness, you'll haveto marry me."
"No way. You should just give up on that idea." Being engaged to him was already going against her wishes. If she married him,she would probably spend the rest of her life in misery.
Hugo continued to tease her, playfully bending down and saying, "What do you mean no way? Weren't you forced to be with mebecause of your mother's illness? Why are you unwilling to do it now, pretending to be all high and mighty?"
“Remember to keep your promise," was all Pearl said in response. The words ‘high and mighty’ stung her deeply, but shedecided not to engage in further argument. She gave him a disdainful look and left the room.
As she walked out, she noticed Gigi passing by with a tray. Gigi's expression seemed uneasy and nervous.“What's wrong, Gigi?" Pearl asked in a softer tone, concerned about her."I'm fine. | just hurt myself while preparing the medicine," Gigi quickly came up with an excuse.
Pearl examined Gigi's right hand, which appeared reddened. "Be careful next time, okay? I'll get some ointment from my room.You just need to apply it a few times, and it'll be fine."
"Okay. Thank you, Pea." Gigi smiled sweetly.novelbin
