Scarlett Adler?”

Tim pondered for a long time before slowly speaking, “After my brother was arrested, I asked around everywhere. There were rumors that he had offended the Hodges Family Group, so I
wanted to find you. But when I got to the Hodges Family, I met a woman. She told me it was
Scarlett Adler.”
Tim Wade paused, his voice trailing off, “Because my brother wanted to do something to
her…”
Hugo narrowed his dark eyes. “Who is this woman?”
“I don’t know her name. I never asked!”
“What about at the hospital?” Hugo inquired. “Did you see her there?”
After a long silence, Tim finally spoke, “I did…”
Hugo pulled out his phone and showed a photo. “Is this her?”
Tim looked at it but remained silent.
“I’m asking again, is it her?”
“If I tell you, will you spare my brother?”
“You don’t have the right to negotiate with me now.”
Tim clenched his fists, and after a while, said, “It’s her…”
Hugo put away his phone and stood up to leave.

As he reached the door, he turned back to Tim. “Your brother’s situation is indeed my doing.
Remember, when you’re a ghost, don’t haunt the wrong person.” With that, he opened the door
and left.
Tim watched his retreating figure, shouting with all his might, “Don’t hurt my brother, Hugo!
You promised me, or I won’t let you get away with it…”

<b>Chapter </b><b>139 </b><b>Because of </b><b>that </b><b>incident </b>
Henry was waiting outside.
As soon as he saw Hugo step out, he moved to greet him.

Before he could say a word, Wade’s anguished cries echoed from the hospital room.
“Boss…” Henry began.
“Let’s go,” Hugo said, cutting him off and heading out first.
Henry nodded to the person at the door before quickly following Hugo.
In the car outside.
Henry looked at Hugo. “Boss, how did it go?”
Hugo turned his head to him. “Got a smoke?”
Uh?
Henry was momentarily taken aback, then nodded. “I have some, but it’s not your usual
brand…” He said, pulling out a pack from the front.
Hugo nced at it, leaned forward, and deftly pulled out a cigarette.
Seeing this, Henry quickly offered a lighter, helping to light it.
Hugo took a drag, and the window slid down, letting the smoke drift out.

He stared out the window, his sharply defined face tense, and the shifting light made his eyes
hard to read.
Henry watched silently, not daring to speak.
He knew Hugo rarely smoked, and he wasn’t sure what had been discussed inside, but Hugo’s
thoughts were clearlyplicated right now.
With the cigarette burned down, Hugo stubbed it out. “Henry.”
“Boss,” Henry replied, looking at him.
“Handle Tiana’s resignation. Don’t let her set foot in Hodges Family Group ever again!”
Henry’s eyes widened in surprise. “Is this about Manager Young?”
Hugo pressed his lips together, saying nothing, but his eyes were icy cold.
His silence confirmed Henry’s suspicion.
“It really is about her… Do we have any evidence?” Henry asked.
“If we did, it wouldn’t be as simple as just letting her go,” Hugo said coldly, staring out the window.
Henry fell silent.
He understood that Tiana had truly crossed Hugo’s line this time.
Hugo Hodges was someone Henry Fallon knew well after all these years.

He was loyal and caring, and though he sometimes appeared fierce, he was definitely a boss
worth sticking with. He never mistreated his subordinates.
Tiana Young understood this about Hugo, which is why she always walked the line, knowing
he would turn a blind eye.
Over the years, Hugo had indeed looked the other way.
Honestly, he didn’t like it, but there wasn’t much he could do.
Now… things had finally gone too far!
“Let’s go back to the hospital,” Hugo said.
Henry started the car and headed toward the hospital.
On the way, Henry nced at the man in the rearview mirror–dignified and rebellious.
He knew Hugo’s tolerance for Tiana was because of that incident…
After pondering for a moment, he spoke up, “Boss…”
Just then, Hugo’s phone rang.
He picked it up and saw it was a message from Fourth, and his lips curled into a smile.
“Uncle, what are you doing?”
Hugo typed on his phone, “Thinking about Fourth!”
She nced up at Henry. “What were you about to say?”

Henry shook his head quickly. “Nothing, nothing at all.”

Hugo looked down as a voice message came through on his phone.
“Uncle!” Fourth’s sweet voice chirped from the other end.
“Why are you still up sote?”
“We just got back home from the hospital with Great–Grandfather.”
“Your Great–Grandfather went back too?” Hugo caught the important detail.
“Yeah, it was only because Mom insisted that Great–Grandfather brought us home.
Otherwise, Grandpa would have stayed at the hospital with Mom all night!” Fourth’s voice
was muffled, as if she was speaking from under the covers.
Hearing this, Hugo’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Uncle, Mom’s not in danger anymore, right?” Fourth’s tone was filled with worry.
Hugo replied, “No, she’s safe now. Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, nothing will happen to
your mom!”
Fourth’s lips curled into a smile. “I trust you, Uncle!”
Hearing her call him ‘Uncle‘ over and over, Hugo felt a mix of sweetness and unease in his
heart.
“Uncle, how’s your injury? It looked pretty serious,” Fourth asked, her voice sounding a bit
downcast.

“It’s not serious, just a minor injury.”
“It looks pretty serious… You’re lying, mister.”
“What’s wrong? Are you worried about me, Fourth?”

Originally meant as a tease, but after a long pause, Fourth’s muffled <i>voice </i>came through,
“Yeah…”
Very worried, very worried.
Hugo listened, his heart sinking, brows furrowing suddenly. “Fourth… are you crying?”
“Mister, you promised to protect me, to protect me forever, so you can’t get hurt!” Fourth’s
voice was thick with emotion.
Hugo’s heart nearly melted.
Just the thought of Fourth crying made his heart ache.
“Mister promises you, nothing will happen, I’ll protect you forever, okay?” Hugoforted
her.
“You have to keep your word, <i>no </i>lying!”
“Yes, mister will never lie to Fourth!”
Listening to this, Fourth felt a little better.
Hugo wasn’t in a rush, patiently talking to her on the phone.

Henry watched through the rearview mirror, especially noticing his boss speaking in such a
gentle tone, something he’d never seen before.
He couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over.
Sure enough, he was meant to be teased!
After what seemed like an eternity of talking, it appeared Fourth had fallen asleep, and Hugo
finally hung up the phone.
Seeing this, Henry quickly asked, “Boss, haven’t you reunited with the little sweetheart yet?
Why is she still calling you uncle?”
Mentioning this brought Scarlett to Hugo’s mind.
He believed the kids knew the truth deep down, but because of Scarlett, no one dared to bring
it up.
“No rush, we’ll take it slow,” Hugo replied.
Though he said that, his heart was already eager.
Especially when he heard Fourth’s sweet voice calling him uncle, Hugo was tempted to reveal
everything.
But he preferred to respect their feelings and didn’t want to make things difficult for them.
During Hugo’s silence, Henry cheekily asked, “Could it be the former boss… isn’t allowing it?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Hugo nced over.

Through the rearview mirror, Henry saw Hugo’s intense gaze, and he immediately felt a shiver
run down his spine, as if the air pressure around them had suddenly dropped.
He quickly adjusted the rearview mirror, choosing not to look back.
“Boss, you’re driving… it’s dangerous!” Henry warned, his eyes signaling a threat.
Hugo smirked coldly, “If you don’t want to work here, you can hand in your resignation
tomorrow!”
Henry was instantly filled with regret, “Boss, I’m sorry… I didn’t mean it like that. What I meant was… the former boss’s wife definitely has feelings for you. She’s just upset with <i>you </i>right
now!”
Hugo paused, his dark eyes narrowing. She has feelings for him?
He turned his gaze toward Henry, “What makes you say that?”
