    Curious, Scarlett asked, “So, what’s wrong with Lucian Lowe?”


    Nate chuckled softly, his voice carrying a hint of mischief, “He’s suffering from exhaustion due <i>to</i>, well,


    overindulgence.”


    Scarlett was speechless for a moment.

    She nced at Nate, “You might just scare him to death.”


    Nate smiled, “For someone who’s so desperate to survive, this is the most effective way.”


    Scarlett couldn’t help but smile, acknowledging the truth in his words.


    “What are your ns next?” Nate asked.


    As they walked, Scarlett suddenly slowed her pace, her attention caught by <i>someone </i>approaching from the


    opposite direction.


    “What’s up?” Nate asked, following her gaze. Across from them stood a man.


    Nate recognized him from Sky Garden. He seemed to be that woman’s son.


    But the look in his eyes gave Nate a feeling that something was off.


    Feigning a cough, Nate looked at Scarlett, “I’ll wait for you outside.” With a meaningful smile, he walked


    ahead, leaving Scarlett to handle the situation.


    Scarlett Adler stood still, her gaze fixed on Yale Lowe.


    In the few days since shest saw him, he seemed like a different person. He didn’t have the same vibrant


    energy as before and looked more worn, yet there was a newfound maturity about him.


    Yale hadn’t expected <i>to </i>run into Scarlett at the hospital, but the moment he saw her, a part of his heart ached


    uncontrobly.


    He looked at her and decided to approach.


    “It’s been a while,” Yale said.

    “It has,” Scarlett replied calmly.


    “What… brings you here?” Yale asked, looking at her.


    “I’m here to ask your father some questions,” Scarlett answered candidly.


    At the mention of this, Yale narrowed his eyes at her. “Did Hugo Hodges send <i>you</i>?”


    “No, he doesn’t know I’m here.”

    Yale frowned, his eyes filled with an indescribable pain. “So, you’re here on his behalf?”


    “I’m here for myself,” Scarlett said.


    Yale took a deep breath, his eyes still a bit bloodshot from drinking. He looked at her and said, “Scarlett, I


    know what my parents did to you was terrible, but now it’s the Lowe Family’s…”


    “This is a personal grudge between me and Hugo Hodges. I hope you won’t interfere anymore,” Yale Lowe


    said, looking at her intently.


    “The whole thing started because of me. I can’t just stand by and do nothing!”


    “So, you’re determined <i>to </i>side with Hugo Hodges, is that it?”


    “If that’s how you want to see it, then yes.”


    Yale’s gaze grew serious as he looked at her.


    “And also, advise your father that his actions will only lead to a bigger loss!” Scarlett Adler said, standing up


    to leave without another word.


    “Scarlett Adler!” Yale suddenly called out to her, watching her retreating figure. “Am I really worth so little to

    “If I didn’t consider you a friend, you can’t imagine what they would be like right now!” Scarlett replied before


    leaving without hesitation.


    As he watched her walk away, Yale’s fists clenched tightly at his sides. The anger on his handsome face was


    clearer than ever, palpable to anyone nearby.


    Scarlett, if that’s how it is, don’t me me for not holding back!


    One day, you’ll understand who truly matters!


    Inside the hospital room.


    Lucian Lowe sat anxiously, feeling like he was on pins and needles. The door swung open, startling him. But


    when he saw it was Yale Lowe, a shadow ofplex emotions flickered in his eyes.


    “It’s you?” Lucian said, then let out a coldugh. “You still remember to visit me, remember you have a father,


    huh?”


    Yale walked over, looking at him without much small talk, and asked directly, “What did she ask you just


    now?”


    “Who are you talking about?”


    “You know exactly who I’m talking about!” Yale replied bluntly.


    At the mention of Scarlett Adler, Lucian’s eyes darted around, and his voice carried a hint of guilt. “What


    could she ask? Of course, she wants me to give up resisting the Hodges Family!”

    “Is it really that simple?”

    “What else?” Lucian retorted, looking up at Yale. “What, are you here to interrogate me too?”


    Yale was silent for a moment, then spoke, “Dad, you can’t win against Hugo Hodges.”


    Even though he didn’t want to admit it, it was the truth.


    The Lowe Family going up against Hugo Hodges was like an arm wrestling with a leg. It might hurt, but the


    oue wouldn’t change.


    All the storms and waves are just temporary; they don’t really make much of a difference.


    Lucian Lowe knew this well, but what could he do? He narrowed his eyes. “So, what are you trying to say?


    Are you suggesting I just give up? What about the Lowe Family? What about everything I’ve worked so hard


    to build over the years? Am I supposed to just watch it all disappear?”


    “But what good will it do, except to bring some bad press to the Hodges Family?” Yale Lowe countered.


    “Even so, it’s better than doing nothing. Even if it kills me, I’ll drag them down with me!” Lucian retorted.


    “The best solution right now is to shut down the Lowe Family,” Yale suggested.


    Lucian was in disbelief at what he heard. He looked at Yale, his eyes narrowing further. “What did you say?


    Say it again<i>.</i>”


    “I know it’s hard to ept, but trust me, as long as you follow my advice, I promise your life won’t be


    affected…”


    Smack.


    Before Yale could finish, Lucian stood up and pped him hard across the face.

    He red at him, seething with anger. “I was actually considering keeping the Lowe Family…”


    “You think I was naive to entrust thepany to you. You don’t need anyone else to ruin it; you’ll squander it


    all yourself. How did I end up with such a useless son?”


    Lucian Lowe was trembling all over.


    The p was hard, leaving a red mark on Yale Lowe’s face, even drawing a bit of blood from the corner of


    his mouth.


    But he wasn’t angry or upset.


    He wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at Lucian, as if he was used to it. In fact, he even managed a


    smile. “Well then, you can hold onto your Lowe Family business dream and keep going.”


    With that, he said no more and turned to walk away.


    Watching his back, Lucian was almost livid. “You think you canpete with Hugo Hodges for a woman?


    You don’t even need him to make a move; you’ve already chickened out!”


    As soon as Lucian’s wordsnded, Yale’s steps came to a halt.


    He turned back, his gaze suddenly icy cold.


    “What, am I wrong?” Lucian asked. “That woman has some sense, knowing you can’t be relied on.”


    Yale narrowed his dark eyes, making him appear chillingly ominous. “It’s not over yet. Who will win or lose is


    still up in the air…”


    With that, he averted his gaze and turned to walk out.


    Lucian Lowe had no idea what he was talking about, but he realized that if he couldn’t rely on Yale Lowe, he’d
