Tiana withdrew her gaze and awkwardly glanced around the room. When her eyes landed on

Mr. He, she nodded slightly in greeting, “Mr. He.”

Mr. He nodded back, his face expressionless.

Finally, when her eyes settled on Hugo, she noticed his bandaged wounds, and a flicker of

concern crossed her face.

“Hugo…” she quickly walked over, unintentionally pushing Fourth aside as she did.

Though unintentional, everyone present noticed the action, and they frowned in disapproval.

Mr. He, in particular, looked at her with instant dissatisfaction.

Second was about to say something, but Scarlett stopped him, her gaze at Tiana growing

sharper.

“Hugo, what happened to you? How did you get so badly hurt?” Tiana asked, whether intentionally or not, her full attention on Hugo, her face filled with worry.

Seeing the blood seeping from his abdominal wound, tears threatened to spill from Tiana’s

eyes,

Hugo noticed her previous actions, and a sense of dissatisfaction arose within him.

He looked at Tiana with a chilling calmness. “Tiana, you bumped into someone!”

“Huh?” Tiana’s face was a picture of confusion.

At that moment, Hugo turned his gaze to Fourth, patting the spot next to him, and said gently,

“Fourth, come over here.”

Upon hearing this, Fourth obediently walked over. “Uncle~”

“You bumped into her!” Hugo reiterated to Tiana.

Seeing the protective look in his eyes, Tiana felt a moment of embarrassment before she

spoke up, “I didn’t mean to. I was just so worried about you that I didn’t notice her…”

“Apologize,” Hugo said directly.

Tiana was taken aback, not expecting Hugo to be so blunt.

He wanted her to apologize to a child in front of everyone?

“Hugo… Tiana looked at him in disbelief.

The situation was quite awkward.

Hugo wasn’t about to let it go, staring coldly at her with a look that said he wouldn’t rest until

she apologized.

Audrey stepped in to ease the tension. “Tiana, apologize to the little one. As adults, we

should be role models for children.”

Her words gave Tiana a way out and helped calm the atmosphere.

Even though Tiana didn’t want to, she knew she couldn’t let things get more awkward.

She forced a smile at Fourth. “Fourth, I didn’t mean it earlier. I’m sorry.”

Fourth furrowed her brows, reminiscent of Scarlett’s proud demeanor, and replied softly, “Oh,

I see.”

Looking at her, Tiana felt like there was a fire in her chest ready to explode.

She had never felt this embarrassed before!

Audrey then laughed and said, “We heard about Hugo’s incident next door, so we came to

check on him. Didn’t expect so many people here.”

She glanced at Second and Fourth. “These kids are adorable. Who might they be?”

Though they claimed to be visiting, Scarlett Adler knew they were really here to gather

information.

Before she could say anything, Hugo spoke up, “They’re my kids.”

What?

Audrey was stunned.

“Yes, indeed, they’re part of the Hodges family,” Mr. Hodges chimed in, adding, “They’re

precious to us, and that little bump earlier really worried me!”

His tone was sarcastic, with a clear underlying message. Yet, the concern on his face was

genuine,

Audrey was speechless.

Even though she had suspected it, hearing them confirm it was still a shock.

At that moment, Tiana looked at Hugo, still in disbelief, “Are they really your kids?”

Hugo’s lips curled into a smile, “Why? Do they not look like it?” He glanced at Second and

Fourth with a gentle gaze.

Then, as if remembering something, he added, “There’s not just two, there’s another one.” His

words carried a hint of pride.

Seeing the curve of his smile, Tiana felt as if her heart had plunged into a deep, icy abyss.

Hugo left Tiana with no room for any illusions. Not a single bit.

With clenched fists, Tiana stared at him.

“Hugo…” she tried to find even the slightest hint in his eyes, anything she could hold onto.

But there was nothing.

Suddenly, she let out a cold laugh.

It turned out that all along, she had been fooling herself.

As she stood up to leave, she noticed Scarlett standing nearby, her gaze filled with obvious

hatred.

Tiana squinted her eyes and spoke in a very soft voice, “Scarlett, you may have won this

round, but it’s not a victory to be proud of. Hugo doesn’t love you; he only cares about the

child. You’re just convenient.”

Scarlett maintained her composure and smiled slightly.

In a quiet tone, she replied, “Whether he loves me or not doesn’t matter. What matters is that

you lost.”

Tiana gritted her teeth, glaring at Scarlett.

Scarlett continued to smile gently, not intending to argue with her. However, she knew Tiana

shouldn’t take her anger out on a child.

Watching Tiana’s frustration, Scarlett felt rather pleased.

Hugo Hodges had finally done something personal this time.

Watching her smug smile, Tiana squinted her eyes.

“If I can’t have it, neither can you!” she declared, standing up and heading for the door.

Audrey called out, “Tiana!”

But Tiana didn’t look back and kept walking.

Audrey turned to Mr. Hodges, nodding awkwardly, “Mr. Hodges, I’ll take my leave now.”

Without waiting for a reply, she quickly got up and followed Tiana outside.

Outside, Audrey hurried to catch up with Tiana.

“Tiana, you’re being impulsive again!” Audrey said. “What did I tell you before we came here?”

At this moment, Tiana stared ahead, walking like a zombie, no longer the tearful mess she

was before. Her gaze was now calm and resolute.

“Mom, I think you’re right,” Tiana suddenly spoke.

“Right about what?”

“There are plenty of fish in the sea, so why should I be hung up on Hugo Hodges alone?”

Tiana replied.

Audrey looked at her daughter, “Sweetheart, have you come to a decision?”

Tiana smirked coldly, “Yes, I’ve figured it out. If I can’t have him, then no one should. It’s better

that way.”

Audrey’s brow furrowed with concern, “Tiana, don’t do anything foolish!”

Tiana turned to her, “Mom, don’t worry. I won’t be weak like before. Let’s go!”

“Where to?”

“Discharge from the hospital!”
