After finishing her soup, Scarlett looked at her grandfather as he spoke, “It’s gettingte. I’ll go pick up Fourth and be back
soon. You should rest.”
Scarlett nodded, “Grandpa, be careful on the road.”
“Don’t worry,” William replied.
Just as he was about to leave, the door swung open, and Old Hodges burst in energetically.
“Where’s Scarlett? Let me see her.”
Seeing the man who entered, William frowned, “Old Hodges, what brings you here?”
But as Hugo Hodges approached, William understood everything–it was definitely this young man’s doing!
He still didn’t give Hugo a friendly look.
Old Hodges turned to William, “You old fool! Scarlett went through such a big ordeal, and you didn’t even tell me. You’re
really losing it!”
“–”
Before William could finish, Old Hodges ignored him and went straight to Scarlett, who was sitting on the hospital bed. “Scarlett, how are you? Are you okay?”
Seeing Mr. H, Scarlett naturally shifted her gaze to Hugo standing behind him.
No doubt, this was definitely his doing.
Hugo met her gaze, as if confessing, “Yes, I did it on purpose.”
Scarlett rolled her eyes at him and then turned to Mr. H with a smile. “I’m fine, Grandpa.*

“How can you be fine? Look at your face, your body, all these injuries. They must hurt a lot, right?” Mr. H looked at <b>her </b><b>with </b>
genuine concern, then turned to William. “How have you been taking care of Scarlett, letting her get hurt like this?”
William immediately responded, “It’s your fault for sending the car! If you hadn’t insisted on giving her a car, there wouldn’t
have been an ident. Scarlett usually takes a cab to work and can even nap on the way. But you just had to send a car,
and that led to the crash!”
Mr. H wanted to argue, but it seemed like William had a point.
Feeling guilty, he blinked his eyes. “I… I’m not going to argue with you.”
He turned back to Scarlett, thought for a moment, and said, “Girl, my intentions were good. <b>I </b>just didn’t expect this to
happen… Do you me Grandpa?”
Scarlett shook her head. “Of course not. You meant well, and the ident was just that–an ident. I won’t lump
everything together.”
Hearing this, Mr. Hodges finally rxed. “You understand, unlike some people who are just senile!”
William stood there, speechless. Was the old man taking a jab at him?
“Don’t worry, dear,” Mr. Hodges assured her. “Even though it wasn’t intentional, the ident happened because of me, and
I will take full responsibility.”
<i>“</i>Responsible? How exactly?” William stepped forward, questioning.
“I… I’ll cover Scarlett’s medical bills and take care of her daily needs. I’ll make sure she’s healthy and happy, even better than before,” Mr. Hodges replied, a bit huffily.
“Oh, give me a break! Who cares about that?” William retorted. “As long as your family stays away from my Scarlett, I’ll <b>be </b>
more than happy!”
“You–William, that’s just <i>too </i>much!” Mr. Hodges protested, feeling wronged.
“So what if it is?” William shot back. “Tell me where I’m wrong. You and your grandson are like <b>a </b><b>curse </b><b>sent </b><b>to </b><b>trouble </b><b>my </b>
Scarlett<b>!</b><b>” </b>

“1,1”
“Did I say something wrong?” William shot back.
The two of them started bickering again.

Scarlett rubbed her temples in frustration.
Seeing this, Hugo stepped in to remind them, “Grandpa, we’re in a hospital.”
Grandpa Adler was fuming, but when he saw Scarlett massaging her head, he held back and said to William, “Alright, alright, I won’t argue with you today. Whatever you say goes.”
William huffed and turned away, not saying another word.
“Grandpa Adler, the previous issues were my fault, but my grandpa genuinely cares for Scarlett. I hope you won’t me
him for my mistakes,” Hugo said.
William acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing.
Grandpa Adler looked on and said, “Enough, enough. You don’t need to say so much to him. He’s stubborn as a mule.”
The atmosphere grew tense.
Just then, the door swung open, and a little girl dashed in. “Scarlett, I’m back!”
As the girl ran straight to Scarlett, Grandpa Adler furrowed his brows.
Hugo nced at the old man discreetly, choosing to stay silent.
Soon after, Second and Yale Lowe entered the room.
Seeing another child, the old man grew even more confused.

William Adler realized the situation was hard to exin, so he decided <i>to </i>ignore them and turned his attention to Yale.
“Hey, Lowe, what brings you here?”
William’s attitude towards people was like night and day.
The old man rolled his eyes.
“I heard from Fourth and Second that Scarlett was in a car ident, so I came to check on her,” Yale said politely, carrying
flowers and fruit, looking quite formal.
“Who’s he?” the old man whispered to Hugo.
Hugo didn’t respond, but his look towards Yale spoke volumes.
The old man nced at Hugo and understood.
But his focus remained on the two kids. Why did they look so familiar?
At that moment, William invited Yale, “Come on, Lowe, have a seat.”
Yale nced at Hugo before walking over to Scarlett. “I just heard from Fourth today about what happened to you. Are
you okay?<b>” </b>
Scarlett shook her head. “I’m fine, but these two kids must have been a handful for you, right?”
“No, they’ve been very well–behaved,” Yale replied with a smile.
“I know their temperaments,” Scarlett said knowingly.
“I’ve been good<i>, </i>Mommy,” Fourth chimed in yfully.
“Yeah, you only say that in front of Mom,” Second teased.
Mommy???
Hearing the kids call Scarlett “Mommy,” Mr. Huxley widened his eyes <i>in </i>surprise. What was going <b>on</b><b>? </b>

Looking around, it seemed no one else was shocked. He quickly approached Scarlett. “Scarlett, what’s the story with
these two kids?<b>” </b>
Scarlett nced at Hugo, who stood a short distance away. This was the real reason for his visit, wasn’t it?
Hugo remained silent, observing the unfolding situation with a calm demeanor.
Scarlett gave Hugo a quick look before smiling and saying, “Grandpa Huxley, they’re my son and daughter.” She turned her
head to look at Fourth and…
Second said, “Call him Grandpa.”
Fourth looked at the old man, then obediently said, “Grandpa.”
The old man was still in a state of confusion, staring at the two kids, finding them more and more familiar.
“What… what’s going on here?” he muttered to himself.
