Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

Both Damian and Pearl were taken aback by Hugo's words.

Pearl suddenly realized something and used her eyes to signal Hugo not to say more.

Hugo, however, remained indifferent and casually continued, "It's irresponsible to impregnate someone and then run away. If I'm not good enough for Pearl, do you think you are?" He ignored her and revealed the truth!
