    Yale Lowe smiled and said, “Yes, I n to pursue her.”


    Hugo Hodges narrowed his eyes.

    “So, for now, I will dedicate all my energy to pursuing her,” Yale Lowe said earnestly. His already sincere eyes looked incredibly serious.


    Hugo Hodges didn’t say anything, but his eyes were full of doubt and warning.


    Sometimes, men don’t need words; a single look can convey their meaning.

    Although Yale Lowe couldn’t match Hugo’s current power, he had a strong background and wasn’t afraid of him.


    “Mr. Hodges, why all the questions? Could it be that you still have feelings for Scarlett and want to rekindle things?” Yale asked.


    Hearing this, Hugo smiled. “What if I do? What if I don’t?”


    “If you do, then from this moment on, we are rivals. If not, I hope Mr. Hodges won’t concern himself too much

    with Scarlett’s affairs. I will take care of her from now on,” Yale said with a smile, appearing both charming


    and gentlemanly.


    The two men were simr in height and build, but one looked sincere and sunny, while the other seemed


    cunning and sharp.


    Their confrontation was evenly matched.


    “Don’t be too confident. You may not be able to handle this woman,” Hugo said.


    “My goal isn’t to handle her; it’s to give her happiness and joy, to let her experience everything she’s never enjoyed before.” These words undoubtedly carried a deeper meaning.


    Hugo Hodges sneered, “I hope you can maintain that confidence in the future.”


    “I will,” Yale Lowe replied without a hint of modesty.


    Hugo Hodges stared at him.


    Just then, Yale Lowe’s phone buzzed. He took it out, nced at the number, but didn’t answer.


    “Mr. Hodges, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”


    “Alright.”


    Yale Lowe nodded with a smile, got up, and started to walk away.


    After a few steps, he seemed to remember something and turned back to Hugo Hodges. “Mr. Hodges, do you


    know someone named First?”


    Hugo Hodges narrowed his eyes. “Who is that?”


    Seeing his reaction, Yale Lowe smiled. “Never mind, just asking.” With that, he turned and left.


    Perhaps it was a surge of male hormones, but watching Yale Lowe’s back, Hugo Hodges felt histent male


    pride stir.


    Yale Lowe got into his car and nced at Hugo Hodges.


    He was Scarlett Adler’s ex-husband and First’s father.


    Upstairs, when he saw the interaction between Hugo Hodges and Scarlett Adler, he had guessed it.


    After all, he and First looked so alike.


    During their conversation, he could sense Hugo’s concern for Scarlett, even though he didn’t admit it. He knew those little things between men very well.


    And he hadn’t mentioned anything about them having children, which was why Yale had asked that question.


    It seemed Hugo didn’t know about the existence of those three children.


    Thinking of this, Yale smiled, fastened his seatbelt, and drove off.

    Hugo was puzzled by Yale’sst words, but he didn’t dwell on them too much.


    Instead, his mind was filled with Yale’s intention to pursue Scarlett.


    ???????


    He wondered if the man had bad taste or something, to fall for a woman like Scarlett, who was so dull and


    fierce.


    But for some reason, he felt uneasy, as if something was blocking his chest.


    He nced upstairs.


    Hugo felt inexplicably irritated.


    Just then, Henry called, “Boss, are you back?”


    “Does everything I do now require your permission?”


    Henry Fallon waspletely confused. “…???”


    “Boss, I didn’t mean it like that…”


    “Then what did you mean?”


    Henry Fallon exined, “Didn’t you ask me to call you before the meeting?”


    “Just because I asked you to call, you call?”


    Henry Fallon was on the verge of tears.


    Boss, what’s wrong with you? Who upset you that you have to take it out on me?!


    Hugo Hodges returned to the office.


    His face was gloomy all afternoon, and everyone was on edge during the meeting.


    When the meeting ended, everyone scurried away quickly. As Henry Fallon tried to slip away, Hugo Hodges stopped him. “Henry Fallon,e to my office.”


    Henry Fallon froze in his tracks, looking back at everyone. Their eyes were filled with sympathy and schadenfreude.


    If it’s a blessing, it’s not a disaster; if it’s a disaster, you can’t avoid it.


    Whatever has to be faced, must be faced.


    Henry Fallon braced himself and went to Hugo Hodges’s office. “Boss, is there anything you need?”


    Hugo Hodges frowned. “Why are you standing so far away?”


    “I was just afraid you wouldn’t be happy seeing me.” As he spoke, Henry Fallon took a small step forward. Hugo Hodges didn’t bother with him. “What about the matter I asked you to investigate?”


    “Investigate what?” Henry Fallon ocked hist

    toward him, sending a shiver down Henry’s spine. “Y-y-you mean Ms. Adler’s matter, right?”


    Seeing that Hugo didn’t say anything, Henry knew he had guessed correctly. “I checked, and I was just about


    to report to you. Ms. Adler also worked in programming abroad, asionally doing small jobs for people,


    earning quite a bit, but as for reaching ten million… there’s a gap.”


    “That’s it?” Hugo asked.
