That voice made Jenny’s expression change drastically.
In the distance, Hugo slowly came over. He walked past Jenny without noticing her and went straight to
Pearl.
“Are you full, Pea?” He touched Pearl’s hand and sounded loving. It felt like they had a deep
relationship.
Jenny got angry but didn’t want to argue in public. She softened her tone and asked, “Why are you
being distant, Hugo? Did I do something wrong?”
Slowly, Hugo turned to Jenny indifferently. “I don’t have anything to do with you. Aren’t you in love with
Rick? So why are you trying to get close to me?”

could finish.
He looked over in the same direction and found Richard standing not far from them, looking grim.
“Calm down. Didn’t he forget about his feelings for you?” Hugo leaned close and whispered to her
gently, “He won’t mind even if we do something.”
Pearl broke out in a cold sweat the moment she saw Richard. She could tell from his intense gaze that
he was very angry and might want to hack Hugo into pieces.
However, Hugo seemed oblivious. He moved closer to Pearl and nearly hugged her.
Anxious, Pearl whispered to Hugo, “Okay, stop. Don’t get too close.”
Hugo raised an eyebrow. “What’s the matter? You’re not still thinking about him, are you?”
Pearl knew she couldn’t let Hugo discover that Richard had feelings for her again, or there might be
trouble.
“You’re my companion today so we should be closer. I think it’s not out of line.” Hugo held her wrist and
felt the smoothness of her skin. It moved him.

Richard, who had walked over, found Hugo holding Pearl’s wrist an eyesore. “It’s not a good idea to be
so affectionate in public.‘

All eyes were on the stage as the fashion show began. Richard, knowing they were alone, spoke
honestly, “It’s because the woman standing beside you is my fiancee.”
“What do you mean? Did you forget that you called off your engagement?” Hugo found it amusing and
wondered why Richard was so forgetful.
Pearl didn’t like bringing up that past affair. Although she felt hurt because of Richard’s indifference,
she knew he had no feelings for her at the moment. She had left him cruelly, so his actions were
reasonable.
Richard confidently replied, “Why don’t you ask her who she’s going to choose? You or me?”
