“Do you have feelings for me?” Hugo Hodges pressed, his eyes fixed on her.
Scarlett Adler furrowed her brows, biting her lip as she struggled to find the right words. She knew that if she
didn’t say something, Hugo wouldn’t let it go.
After a moment of thought, she replied, “I didn’t do all this just for you. This whole thing started because of <ol><li>me. I can’t just stand by and watch, and I don’t want to drag you and Grandpa Hector into it. As for anything </li></ol>
else, it has nothing to do with that.”
With that, she avoided his gaze and stood up to leave.
But Hugo grabbed her hand, as if he had expected her response. Instead of getting angry, he smiled, “You
said it wasn’t all because of me. Does that mean some of it was? Even just a little?”
Even the slightest bit was enough to make Hugo happy.
Seeing his smile, Scarlett was taken aback. Did she really say that?
“Is that so?” Hugo asked, sounding like a child starved for affection, desperately seeking Scarlett’s
affirmation.
His eager eyes made it hard for her to refuse.
Scarlett nced at him, “Think what you want.” With that, she turned and walked away.
Watching her walk away, Hugo Hodges couldn’t help but smile.
He knew that was already a pretty good answer.
For Scarlett Adler to say something like that was a huge affirmation for him.

As Scarlett reached the car, Hugo quickly hurried over to open the door for her. Just as she was about to get
in, she noticed Hugo’s hand.
It was trembling.
“What’s wrong?” Scarlett asked, looking at him.
Hugo nced at his own hand. “It’s nothing. I was just really nervous on the way here, worried something
might happen to you. But now, everything’s fine.” He said, smiling as he withdrew his hand.
Scarlett paused, gave him a look, and then got into the car, deep in thought.
Hugo walked around and got in as well.
On the way back, Scarlett remained silent.
Hugo drove, asionally ncing over at her.
Even if Scarlett hadn’t stepped in, Hugo had already had a n in ce.
It could be said that the situation had escted to this point partly because of his own decisions.
But he never expected Scarlett Adler to step in and help him.
Even though the n was disrupted, he felt pretty good, like he was being protected.
Thinking about it made him feel much happier.
“Scarlett.”

When Hugo Hodges called out to her, Scarlett Adler frowned in annoyance. “What?”
“Nothing, just that it feels great to be protected by you.”
Scarlett Adler was speechless.
Hugo watched her, a smile spreading across his face.
Scarlett frowned again.
This man was truly unpredictable.

Just a moment ago, he had told her not to risk herself for his sake, and now he was grinning like a fool.
“No need.”
But Hugo continued to smile, clearly in a good mood.
Just then, Henry Fallon called.
“Boss, Director Lowe has gathered the shareholders for a meeting. They want to impeach you, and everyone
is already there.”
Hugo <i>narrowed </i>his eyes. “I understand.”
“Then you…”
“I’ll be there in twenty minutes.”
“Okay.”
Hanging up the phone, Hugo Hodges turned to look at Scarlett Adler. “Do we have anything else nned for

“Then how abouting with me to the office? After we sort things out, we can grab a meal together,” Hugo
suggested.
“You still have an appetite?” Scarlett replied, having clearly heard what Henry Fallon said on the call.
Hugo simply smiled, unfazed. “Nothing is more important than having a meal with you.”
Since he put it that way, Scarlett couldn’t argue. She raised an eyebrow and nodded, “Sure!”
Hearing Scarlett’s agreement, Hugo’s smile widened, and he quickened his pace, heading straight to the
office.
It was Scarlett’s first time entering thepany with Hugo.
As soon as they stepped into the lobby, many eyes turned their way.
After all, at thepany’s recent anniversary party, everyone learned about Scarlett’s existence, and it was
quite the surprise, especially since there was already a child involved.
Scarlett Adler had already secured her position as the future wife of the Hodges Family Group’s president.
Who wouldn’t show her some respect?
“Mr. Hodges, Mrs. Hodges,” an employee greeted them as they passed by.
Hugo Hodges nodded, clearly pleased with the acknowledgment.
Scarlett, however, only slightly furrowed her brow upon hearing it. She wasn’t about to go around exining
the situation to everyone.

Once they were inside the elevator, Scarlett turned to Hugo, “Are you just going to let people <i>keep </i>
misunderstanding?”
“Misunderstand what?” Hugo feigned ignorance.
Scarlett looked at him, “If this keeps up, finding another woman might not be <i>so </i>easy for you!”
Hugo nodded, “True, there aren’t as many women flocking to me now.”
“You can still change your mind!”
Hugo turned to her, “Regret? I regret not making it public sooner!”
Scarlett was speechless.
“And for the rest of my life, apart from you, I have no intention or ns to seek out any other woman,” Hugo
said, looking at her intently.
Scarlett Adler pressed her lips together, remaining silent as she looked at him.
Just then, the elevator doors opened.
Hugo Hodges nced at her, “Let’s go.”
He stepped out first, with Scarlett following closely behind.
Henry Fallon was practically pacing a hole in the floor outside the office, his eyes lighting up when he saw
Hugo return.
“Boss, you’re finally back!”
However, when he noticed Scarlett, he greeted her, “Ms. Adler.”

The moment Hugo stepped into thepany, his demeanor shifted, bing sharp and authoritative.
“Yes, everyone is present,” Henry replied.
Hugo nodded.
He turned to Scarlett, “Wait for me in the office for a bit. I won’t be long.”
Scarlett nodded again.
Hugo gave her a reassuring smile before heading straight to the meeting room, with Henry following closely
behind.
“You don’t need to follow me anymore. Take good care of Scarlett.”
Henry Fallon nodded. “Yes, sir.”
Hugo Hodges walked directly toward the conference room, his steps steady and his demeanor proud, like a
king who looked down on everything.
Watching his retreating figure, Scarlett Adler’s gaze was calm and thoughtful.
This man was indeed exceptional.
At that moment, Henry also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her. “Ms. Adler, this way, please.”
Scarlett nodded and headed toward Hugo’s office.
