Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 898 An Odd Dinner

Hugo flashed a smirk as he swept a glance across Rory. “Ms. Sanders, I’ve always thought you are a smart lady. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have turned from an unknown girl from a small county into a celebrity. Are you going to play dumb with me? I don’t have the best temper, and I’m not as easy to talk to as Mrs. Clinton. If I get impatient, I can’t guarantee what I might do,” Hugo said as he rotated his wrists.

Shuddering with fright, Rory was rapidly analyzing the situation. The reality was that she would be in trouble if she didn’t tell the truth now. Rory had always been great at reading the situation and submitting to circumstances. Hence, she told Hugo everything that she knew almost immediately. Hugo listened and nodded in satisfaction.

“Ms. Sanders, you are indeed smart. It’s no wonder that Jennifer willingly gave you money for plastic surgery to let you enter the entertainment industry. You have worked in this industry for more than a year and are no longer the naive little girl from a small county. So, I believe you have something up your sleeves while Jennifer threatens you with your photos. You can hand it to me. After that, I’ll send you overseas with a sum of money,” Hugo persuaded with his arms crossed.

Rory glanced at Hugo, then took a deep breath before she lowered her head to rack her brains. She was contemplating if she should give what she had to Hugo. However, judging from his attitude currently, she knew she could not refuse to hand over what she had.

“Mr. Hugo, I need a few minutes to think. This should be allowed, right?” Lifting her head, Rory tried to buy herself some time. Hugo raised his chin, but he didn’t decline her request. After giving it some thought, Rory opened her bag and took out a nice-looking flash drive. Then, she handed it over to Hugo.

“Here is a video I secretly recorded, which contains the contents of the conversation between Jennifer and June. As you said, Jennifer has many things that may bring me down. If I am not prepared, I will not have a chance to fight back,” Rory said.

Hugo got up to take a laptop. Then, he turned it on before inserting the flash drive. Checking the content, it was indeed a conversation between Jennifer and June about how they planned to bring Oscar down.

A smile curled the corners of Hugo’s mouth. These two clowns are ridiculous. They must think they are omnipotent because other people did nothing to harm them.

“Mr. Hugo, I only did as I was told to in exchange for money. I never planned to harm Amelia. Also, I did plastic surgery to look similar to Amelia because Jennifer asked me to. As you already know, I come from a small county with no one to depend on. No connections or supporters. I had to rely on Jennifer to make it into the entertainment industry, so please spare me. I promise I’ll leave immediately and never appear in front of Amelia again.” Rory promised.

Hugo nodded in response.

“I can let you off. Before that, however, you need to take something. Come and have this. After that, I’ll ask someone to send you home.” Hugo took a black bottle from the table and poured out a few pills. Then, he offered them to Rory.

Rory stared at the pills for quite a while before she raised her head.

“What is this?”

“It’s some good stuff. You only need to take it. Don’t worry, as you won’t die from it. As long as you stay in your hometown obediently, someone will send you medicine every year. Your health will return to normal within three years,” Hugo explained.

Rory was reluctant to reach out for the pills.

“Stop wasting time. We’re not harming you only because Mrs. Clinton pleaded for you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even be here talking to me since you intended to replace Mrs. Clinton. If I were you, I would take these pills as I was told, return to where I came from, and settle down with someone I like.”

Upon hearing that, Rory realized she had no choice but to obey. Thus, she took the pills from Hugo’s palm and swallowed them.

“I’ll have someone send you to the airport later. After you land in Horington, someone will follow you in secret. If you behave yourself, I will have someone arrange a stable job that pays well for you,” Hugo said.

Rory knew her dream of becoming a celebrity was shattered. However, at that moment, staying alive was more important than living the life of a star.
