Chapter 994
"Since there's a scapegoat here, why shouldn't I take advantage of it?"
Hugo didn't care who took the fall. If Winona hadn't locked them up, he wouldn't have consideredthis. Killing Richard and blaming Winona was a perfect plan to clear his name. Why not go for it?
"You're heartless." Pearl recoiled, accidentally stepping into a mud pit.
"Alright, don't even think about resisting anymore. I told you I won't hurt you. Let's get to the car. It'spouring, and you'll catch a cold," Hugo said, moving closer.
Pearl slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me. You're disgusting."
"Still find me gross?" Hugo's tone turned icy.
"I've always found you incredibly gross, the absolute worst." Pearl deliberately tried to provoke him,hoping to get a strong reaction.
Sure enough, Hugo took the bait. "Gross? Do you think I'm gross? Everything I've done, it's all foryou. I have to get rid of him just to have you. Once he's out of the picture, you'll be mine. Do youknow how long I've been waiting for this moment?" Hugo stepped closer, gripping her hand firmly."You have no idea how long I've waited for this."
Pearl glared at him. "What did you do to Richard?"
"Nothing yet. My men are waiting to grab him. I won't spare him," Hugo said, describing hisgruesome plans.
Hugo's description was so gruesome and disgusting that Pearl vomited at the thought.
"Alright, you don't want to hear this. Come on, let's get in the car. There's water inside. You'll feelbetter after drinking." Hugo picked her up.
Pearl struggled for a moment. Realizing she had exhausted herself from running, she stoppedresisting and began to think of a plan. Richard should be able to hold on for a while…novelbin
As if sensing Pearl's thoughts, Hugo chuckled and shook his head. "Stop thinking about it. Nomatter what tricks you try, Richard won't make it."
Pearl suddenly looked at him with determination. "What if I agree to be with you?"
"It won't change anything. Once Richard's gone, you're mine. And if you make me angrier, he'llsuffer more and be chopped into pieces," Hugo threatened.
Pearl was shocked. This guy was indeed a cunning old fox.
