"You should get your brain checked. Why do you have such unrealistic fantasies?" Pearl smiled, giving Silas a pat on the head, but her hand
accidentally brushed against his wound.
Silas winced in pain. "You don't have to hurtif you don't want to take care of me."
Pearl burst into laughter. "I didn't mean to hurt you."
Seeing that Silas seemed okay, Pearl didn't feel too worried. "Just rest here for a few days if nothing comes up. I'll arrange for someone to take care
of you."
Silas snorted. "l don't need that.”
"I'l punch you until your concussion gets worse if you say that again." Pearl waved her fists.

"How violent," Silas muttered.
"Alright, I'll head back to the company now if there's nothing else. | have smatters to attend to."
Silas covered his head with the blanket and turned away. "Just go. Don't dilly-dally."
Pearl rolled her eyes and turned to leave.
Once she arrived at the company, she called Hugo to apologize. She felt responsible since one of his streamers had gotten into an accident while at
her place.
Hugo didn't dwell on it much and chuckled. "No need to apologize. You can treatto a meal if you want."
"What? You want cash instead? Sure, how much do you need?" Pearl played along, wearing a grin.
Hugo sighed, realizing that it was futile to argue with her. He changed the topic. "But Silas has causedquite a bit of trouble."
Pearl becconfused. "Silas just got into an accident. How did he cause you trouble?"
"Your streamer and my streamer appearing together in public has caused Estrella a lot of problems. Haven't you seen the news?" Hugo pointed out.

Pearl pursed her lips. "Alright, I've seen it. I'l have our PR team handle it. We won't let it affect Estrellas life."
Hugo said nothing but chuckled.
"What's so funny?" Pearl wondered what had gotten into him.
Hugo composed himself and spoke seriously, "| just feel that signing a contract with Estrella was one of the best decisions I've made."
Pearl understood his meaning but chose to ignore it. "Okay, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up."
"Wait." Hugo lowered his voice, "I have sinformation about Aunt Beah. Would you like to hear it?"
