Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Chapter 363

Speaking of the devil, before Pearl and Richard could chat further, there was suddenly a bigger commotion at the door. Hugo, dressed in a white suit, stood tall and conspicuous.

However, instead of greeting Dustan, Hugo approached Pearl and Richard. “I heard from Jen that Pearl deliberately targeted her just now. What’s the meaning of this?”

Jenny had apparently complained to Hugo about the incident, and he had come to scold Pearl.

How ridiculous!

“No, I didn’t deliberately target her.” Pearl yawned and said calmly, “She came over to provoke me, so I responded. It just so happens that her birthday gift to Mister Dustan turned out to be a fake.”

Hugo forced a smile. “Even if her gift was fake, her intentions were good. You know she’s a public figure, but you always humiliate her in public”

Pearl couldn’t understand why she was in the wrong. Staring at Hugo with disdain, Pearl said harshly, “Hugo, it’s your business if you want to defend her because you like her. But I don’t. Please don’t mention her in front of me again.”
