After the police department released the investigation results, the negative news about the Hodges Family

was cleared, and their stock prices not only recovered but even improved beyond their previous levels.

As for those online supporters of Lucian Lowe, some continued with conspiracy theories, while others fell

silent. Regardless, this little incident didn’t affect the Hodges Family Group much.

That evening, when Grandpa Hodges called Uncle Zhong, he learned that Lucian Lowe’s arrest was

orchestrated by Scarlett Adler.

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Hodges was stunned for quite a while.

Uncle Zhong remarked, “Sir, where did you find such a granddaughter–in–law? I think she’ll have no problem

keeping the Hodges Family in line in the future!”

Grandpa Hodges was silent for a moment before he snapped back to reality and laughed, “Indeed!”

“This girl is sharp and logical. She’s quite the talent. I almost want to recruit her as my deputy!”

“No way!” Grandpa quickly objected. “You police officers are always on the front lines, dealing with criminals. It’s too dangerous. I don’t want my granddaughter–in–law taking such risks. Don’t even think about it!”

Uncle Zhong chuckled on the other end, “I knew you wouldn’t agree, but I heard she’s divorced from Hugo.

Can you still have a say in it?”

Speaking of the matter, Old Mr. Hodges was still as confident as ever. “So what if she’s divorced? She’s still part of the Hodges Family, and this marriage will be back on track sooner or later. You better not set your

sights on her!”

Uncle Zhong laughed heartily on the other end of the phone. “Alright, alright, I won’t go after anyone from the

Hodges Family. But you have to keep an eye out for me. My son is still single, so if there’s another good

family like yours, don’t forget us!”

Upon hearing this, Old Mr. Hodges quickly replied, “As long as you don’t go after our Scarlett, I’ll handle it!”

“Okay, I’ll count on you then!”

Old Mr. Hodges was quite pleased.

“Alright, Old Mr. Hodges, I have a meeting to attend, so let’s leave it at that for now.”

“Alright, go ahead and get busy!” With that, the call ended.

At this moment, William Adler was peeling an apple nearby. Seeing Old Mr. Hodges‘ animated expression, he

couldn’t help but comment dryly, “When did Scarlett ever plan to remarry into the Hodges Family? Don’t even

think about it.”

Old Mr. Hodges could be assertive with others, but he was always a bit less confident when facing William.

“Oh, come on! If I don’t say that, Old Zhong might recruit Scarlett, and that’s risky. Do you want her working

on the front lines?” Old Mr. Hodges explained.

“People just say things sometimes!”

“When has Old Zhong ever joked about such things?” Grandpa Hodges asked.

“Whether it’s a joke or not isn’t the point. The real question is, can you honestly say you haven’t thought

about it?” William Adler challenged.

Grandpa Hodges pressed his lips together. It was hard to deny the truth.

His fondness for Scarlett Adler was obvious to anyone with eyes.

“Scarlett is such a wonderful girl; it’s only natural to have such thoughts, wouldn’t you agree?” Grandpa

Hodges tried to flatter.

William rolled his eyes. The words were pleasant, but the situation was a different matter.

Seeing William fall silent, Grandpa Hodges continued, “Alright, alright, but let me tell you, Scarlett is the hero

of our Hodges Family. It’s thanks to her planning that we got through safely this time!”

William paused in his apple–peeling, and after hearing the whole story from Grandpa Hodges, he finally

relaxed.

Though it was dangerous, Scarlett never faltered, leaving him with mixed emotions.

“No way, I’m calling Hugo to have Scarlett come back for dinner. We need to celebrate properly today!” With

that, Grandpa Hodges got up to find his phone.

Just then, the sound of a car pulling up outside could be heard.

Uncle Evans glanced over, “That must be the young master returning!”

Sure enough, Hugo Hodges and Scarlett Adler walked in together shortly after.

Wow.

From a distance, they looked like the perfect pair–handsome and beautiful, a sight for sore eyes. It seemed

almost criminal that they weren’t together!

Turning to Uncle Evans, he said, “Tell the kitchen to prepare something special. The Hodges Family can

finally have a reunion dinner today!”

Seeing the old man’s joy, Uncle Evans was genuinely happy too. “I’ll get right on it!”

“Make sure to prepare plenty of Scarlett’s favorite dishes!” the old man instructed.

“Got it!” Uncle Evans replied with a smile.

At that moment, Hugo and Scarlett approached.

“Grandpa, Grandpa Adler,” Hugo greeted them.

William Adler nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

The old man then turned to Scarlett, “Scarlett, come, come, have a seat!”

Scarlett Adler glanced at Hugo Hodges, then walked over and sat down. “Grandpa Hodges.”

“I just heard from Old Zhong that this time, we owe it all to you. You’re truly the lucky star of the Hodges

Family!” Grandpa Hodges expressed his genuine happiness.

Scarlett looked up at Hugo. She wasn’t one to boast, and she knew exactly how things had unfolded.

Turning back to Grandpa Hodges, she spoke calmly, “I stepped in because I felt it was the right thing to do.

But honestly, even if I hadn’t, the Hodges Family and Hodges Group would have been just fine. Hugo could

have handled it all!”

Everyone knew this truth deep down.

Grandpa Hodges, a seasoned veteran who had seen it all, was even more pleased to hear Scarlett’s words.

Not one to flaunt her achievements or bask in glory, Scarlett’s humility was precisely what the Hodges

Family valued.

At that moment, Grandpa Hodges was more certain than ever that Scarlett Adler was the only choice for the

future matriarch of the Hodges Family!

With these thoughts in mind, Old Man Hodges still wouldn’t admit it out loud. “Come on, the company’s been

in chaos these past few days, and he hasn’t done a thing!” he said, then turned with a cheerful smile to

Scarlett Adler. “No matter what, you’re the one who solved it. Grandpa Hodges is truly grateful. I’ve asked the

kitchen to prepare extra dishes. Why don’t you stay and have dinner with Grandpa?”

With Old Man Hodges saying that, Scarlett couldn’t refuse. She nodded, “Okay.”

Seeing this, Old Man Hodges‘ eyes nearly squinted shut with joy.

Beside him, Hugo Hodges also had a slight smile on his lips.

Just then, Fourth came out of the room. Seeing Scarlett, he exclaimed, “Scarlett, you’re back!”

He quickly ran down the stairs and jumped into her arms. “Where did you go? I missed you so much!”

Hearing the commotion, First and Second also came out of their rooms. Seeing Scarlett had returned, they

too came downstairs.

“Scarlett, you’re back!”

“Scarlett, was it you who did it?”

First and Second stood in front of her, each asking a question, their eyes sparkling with excitement. It was

clear they were very happy in the Hodges Family.
