    Scarlett Adler stepped out of the Hodges Family estate, with William Adler following closely behind.


    “Scarlett.”


    Scarlett turned around.


    William looked at her, hesitating to speak.


    With just a nce, Scarlett knew what he wanted to say. She closed her eyes briefly, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll


    keep my promise.”


    William watched her, his brows furrowing. After a long pause, he finally spoke, “The issues with the Hodges


    Family started because of us. I know you’re loyal and won’t stand by idly. I just want to remind you, whatever


    you decide to do, make sure you protect yourself first.”


    Hearing his words, Scarlett narrowed her eyes, “Grandpa, are you saying…<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    “Just this once, don’t make it a habit!” William said firmly.


    Scarlett understood that it took a lot for her grandfather to say this. She pressed her lips together and


    replied, “I understand, Grandpa.”


    “Alright, alright, off you go.” With that, William avoided her gaze and turned back towards the old Hodges


    Family mansion.


    watched William Adler’s retreating figure and, without hesitation, turned to leave.


    Once she was gone, William finally stopped, turning back to look at Scarlett’s departing silhouette, his


    expression a mix of emotions.

    He wasn’t sure if his decision was right or wrong, but he knew Scarlett’s temperament too well. He feared


    that if he kept suppressing her, she might take drastic measures, leading to unforeseen consequences.


    He was genuinely scared.


    Their family couldn’t withstand any more blows.


    With that thought, William let out a heavy sigh and turned to head back inside.


    In the taxi.


    Scarlett was searching for something on her phone, and upon seeing the results, her eyes darkened.


    She then dialed Nate Thorne’s number, but after several attempts, the call went unanswered.


    Scarlett frowned and then addressed the driver, “Take me to the Gelsey Hotel.”


    “Sure thing.”


    Twenty minutester, Scarlett arrived at the Gelsey.


    She went straight to Nate’s <i>room </i>and rang the doorbell a few times. Seeing no one answered, Scarlett…


    Feeling a bit impatient, Scarlett Adler fiddled with her phone, and with a beep, the door unlocked.


    She pushed the door open and walked right in.


    At that moment, Nate Thorne was just emerging from the bathroom, wearing a robe loosely. He was still


    half–asleep, with his hair in a mess.

    But as soon as he stepped out and saw who was sitting on the couch, he froze.

    “Scarlett Adler? Wh–what are you doing here?” Nate asked in shock, his voice almost a squeak from surprise.


    Scarlett nced at his pale, glowing skin and spoke with a calm demeanor, “Your phone wasn’t reachable, so


    I came directly.”


    Realizing his state, Nate quickly wrapped his robe tightly around himself, eyeing her warily. “A woman


    barging into a man’s room uninvited–aren’t you afraid of the danger? Or do you have some ulterior motive?


    Let me tell you-”


    Before he could finish, a piece of clothingnded on his head. Scarlett, without turning back, said, “You have


    ten minutes. Meet me downstairs.”


    Nate stood there, stunned, taking deep breaths to calm himself. Finally, epting his fate, he grabbed the


    clothes and headed back into the bathroom to change.


    Ten minutester, Nate Thorne emerged looking like apletely different person. He was dressed so


    impably that he appeared even more beautiful than a woman, standing in front of Scarlett Adler.


    “Let’s go,” he said, a bit flustered.


    Even though he was fully dressed, Scarlett’s gaze made him feel as though she had X–ray vision and could


    see right through his clothes. It was utterly embarrassing!


    Scarlett merely nced at him, nodded, and turned to walk outside.


    Nate hurried after her. “Where are you taking me?”


    “You’ll find out when we get there.”


    “Always keeping secrets!”

    “I read the news,” Nate continued. “Hugo Hodges is caught up in a lot of negative press. Aren’t <i>you </i>going to


    do something?”


    Scarlett kept her lips sealed.


    Nate feigned a cough and said, “By the way, you’re a woman. You shouldn’t just barge <i>into </i>a man’s room like

    Scarlett’s eyes flicked over him dismissively. “Don’t worry. With your build, no one would get the wrong idea.”


    Upon hearing this, Nate Thorne looked as if he’d been hit by a blow. “What do you mean by that? Am I not…


    fit enough?”


    Scarlett Adler narrowed her eyes, a smile ying on her lips, and murmured, “Enough to make a man.


    dream…”


    Nate was taken aback. “Scarlett Adler!!!”


    Scarlett just smiled without saying a word.


    “What, am I worse than Hugo Hodges?” he asked. “Yes, I admit, Hugo looks a bit more manly, but I’m not


    As Scarlett thought about Hugo, an image shed in her mind: under dim lighting, his tan skin, broad


    shoulders, narrow waist, and especially the firm, powerful lines of his chest muscles, with not an ounce of


    extra fat. He was the epitome of allure.


    This man was truly nature’s favorite.


    Then she thought of Nate, who had a good physique but was pale as a ghost.


    Scarlett couldn’t help but chuckle softly.


    “Why are youughing?” Nate asked, feeling humiliated.


    “Nothing much, just suggesting <i>you </ipare yourself to someone else,” Scarlett Adler said with a smirk.


    Nate Thorne was speechless.


    “You must have something going on with Hugo Hodges to be so biased towards him,” Nate retorted,

    unwilling to admit he was inferior to any man when it came to male pride.


    “Trust me, I’ve seen it, which is why I’m giving you an honest answer,” Scarlett replied.


    Nate was at a loss for words again.

    “But don’t feel bad. You’re definitely fairer than him, and that’s something he can’t beat,” Scarlett added.


    Ugh.


    Who wants to bepared to another guy based on skin fairness?


    This was Nate’s biggest annoyance. He was already strikingly handsome, and his fairness sometimes led


    people on the street to mistake him for a woman.


    He was sick of this cursed fairness.


    Seeing Nate about to lose his cool, Scarlett decided to drop the subject.


    At the hotel entrance, the valet had already brought Nate’s car around. Scarlett, for once, took the initiative to


    slide into the driver’s seat.


    “You’re driving?” Nate asked, surprised.


    “What, scared?” Scarlett teased.


    “Scared? Me? The day I’m scared of this is the day pigs fly! You could be flying a ne, and as long as you’re


    flying, I’m riding!” Nate dered, opening the door and hopping in.


    Scarlett Adler looked at him with a smile, then started the car with a roar and shot forward.


    Nate Thorne suddenly remembered something, “You haven’t driven in years, right?”

    “And why were you in the hospital recently?”


    “Car ident!”

    Nate’s chest tightened as if something had gripped it hard. He discreetly pulled the seatbelt over and buckled


    it, then grabbed the handle beside him.


    Staring ahead, he couldn’t help but shiver, “S–slow down, please.”
