Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl Novel novel Chapter 964

"Have you actually read the investigation result?" Richard's voice was steady as he questioned Hugo

Hugo picked up the report and read it, his expression changing drastically.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you. But this is the result between Pearl and her mother."

Pearl subconsciously let out a sigh of relief upon hearing that it wasn't the result between her and Richard.

"How dare you!" Hugo's gaze darted to the nearby doctor, who looked lost and fearful. It dawned on Hugo that he hadn't asked for the percentage of similarity.

The doctor texted Hugo that morning to simply inform him that the two people were biologically related. Hugo had overlooked it, so he didn't ask about that.

Snorting, Hugo redirected his frustration. "So what? Since they're related, and your uncle had an affair with Pearl's mother, it means you and Pearl are cousins."

Though uneasy that the result wasn't what he expected, Hugo remained adamant. The truth couldn't be avoided.

"What if it's uncertain?" Richard asked.

Hugo scoffed. "No, that's impossible. I know you just don't want to accept this reality, but it's the truth. Stop avoiding it."

"Maybe it's not as simple as you think." Richard chuckled. "Maybe you've got it wrong."

Hugo struggled to accept the possibility. Deep down, he knew Richard wouldn't make such a mistake.
