Chapter 611

Hugo felt quite sorry for Pearl, seeing her red eyes. “Alright, we’ll leave today if that’s what you want.”

“Then, my mother’s illness…”

“Don’t worry about it. I won’t go back on my word.” Hugo reached out to touch Pearl’s head, but she

dodged his hand, creating a noticeable distance between them.

“Okay, I’ll book the tickets now,” Pearl said, ready to get up, but Hugo stopped her.

“Have you forgotten that you’re supposed to be dead? Booking tickets could expose you. Aren’t you

afraid Ezra might find out that you’re still alive?”

With a lot on her mind, Pearl was growing increasingly frustrated by Hugo’s words. She sat back down

on the couch to collect herself. “What should we do then?”

Hugo lit a cigarette, took a slow drag, and then replied calmly, “We’ll take a boat today. Tomorrow, we’ll

fly to Aflus from another country. Your mother will have to endure some rough seas with us. You’ll need

to come up with a plausible excuse to deceive her.‘

An idea struck Pearl. “I have a plan. Don’t worry.”

Hugo looked at her in shock. “Don’t tell me you want to risk everything and tell her the truth.”

“Am I that stupid?” Pearl rolled her eyes. “Remember Drew? When you and Jenny forced me to jump

into the sea, I bumped into him. He saved me and I got onto his family’s cargo ship.”

She recalled that unpleasant incident with frustration, and Hugo’s reaction mirrored her own

discomfort.

“So, you’re saying?”

“Since the Cooper family let me go, they might be willing to help me now. I plan to ask Mister Reese’s

help in crossing the border,” Pearl explained confidently.

“Oh, I didn’t know that I didn’t save you with ease. It was him who didn’t really want you to marry Sean.”

Hugo was enlightened. “But how are you going to explain it to your mother?”

Stunned, Pearl seemed to be thinking about its feasibility.

“Don’t worry about it. My mother has a history with the Coopers. I believe that once I explain things and

mention her past friendship with them, she’ll understand,” Pearl reasoned.

Hugo was impressed by Pearl’s quick thinking. She came up with a resolution instantly. “I didn’t expect

you to be so clever.”

“Of course. Do you think everyone is as naive as Jenny, who relies on men for everything?” Pearl

couldn’t resist taking a dig at Jenny, seizing the opportunity to disparage the woman.

But Hugo didn’t react with agitation or try to defend Jenny. He looked at Pearl with a mocking smile. “It

seems you hold quite the grudge against her.”

Pearl held onto the pillow and regarded Hugo seriously. “How could you say that, Hugo? Do you think I

don’t hold a big grudge against you?”

Stupefied, Hugo smiled and said, “We’ve known each other for so long. I forgot we were once

sworn enemies.

Pearl quickly corrected him, “Not just once. It’ll always be the same.”

Suddenly, without warning, Hugo pressed her onto the couch, catching her off guard. Pearl’s heart

skipped a beat, and she stared at him warily. “What are you doing?”
