Scarlett Adler closed her eyes for a moment before looking at him and saying, “So, Mr. Hodges, have you

decided to turn over a new leaf and become a good man?”

“Am I not being clear enough?” Hugo Hodges replied, his eyes intense, as if he was ready to bare his heart to

prove his intentions.

“Sorry, my reaction time is a bit slow. I just got the signal today,” Scarlett said.

At this, Hugo stepped closer, his voice lower and more suggestive, “Do you want to keep me on a short

leash? I’m confident I can quickly meet your standards for a good man.”

Scarlett looked at him.

Hugo’s intentions were crystal clear.

And by now, Scarlett had no doubt about his sincerity toward her.

As Scarlett pondered how to respond, the door opened, and Fourth emerged from the room. “Scarlett, can

you help me see if this outfit works?”

Fourth stood at the doorway, holding up an outfit against herself.

Scarlett snapped back to reality and looked toward Fourth at the door. “Coming,” she said, and walked over

to her.

Watching her retreating figure, Hugo Hodges couldn’t help but smile.

“Does this one work?” asked Fourth, standing at the doorway.

Scarlett Adler glanced over and offered her honest opinion, “Sure, pair it with some sneakers, and it’ll look

great!”

Fourth hesitated, “Sneakers with this outfit?”

Scarlett’s suggestion made Fourth smile awkwardly. Why did she even ask Scarlett?

Scarlett’s own outfits were all styled by Fourth; otherwise, Scarlett’s fashion sense… Fourth didn’t dare to

imagine.

Just then, Hugo approached, “Pair it with some ankle boots.”

Fourth’s eyes lit up, “Exactly, that’s more like it, Uncle!”

Scarlett frowned earnestly, “I still think sneakers would look good!”

Fourth sighed, “Scarlett, maybe you should take a break.” Then she turned to Hugo, “Uncle, can you help me

pick an outfit?”

“Sure!” Hugo nodded.

“Let’s go!” With that, Fourth pulled Hugo into the bedroom.

Scarlett Adler was speechless. Was she being dismissed?

As she pondered, her phone buzzed.

Seeing a message from Nate Thorne, Scarlett walked over to the couch and sat down to reply slowly.

Soon, Hugo Hodges emerged from the room.

Scarlett glanced up at him, “Have you decided?”

“Yeah!” Hugo nodded.

Scarlett continued chatting on her phone.

“Are you heading out?”

“Yeah.” Scarlett nodded.

“Where to?”

“Work!”

“Perfect timing, I’ll give you a ride!” Hugo offered.

Scarlett paused, looking up at him, “Perfect timing?”

If she remembered correctly, Hugo’s office was not on her way.

“Yeah, I have some business near your company,” Hugo explained.

Whether it was true or not, Scarlett didn’t refuse and nodded.

Soon, Fourth came out of the room.

She wore a simple khaki dress, accessorized with a plain scarf and a hat. Her long black hair cascaded

down, giving off an aura of elegance.

With a small bag slung casually over her shoulder, Fourth looked effortlessly stylish and neat.

Indeed, she was a sight for sore eyes.

“Scarlett, how do I look?” Fourth asked, doing a little twirl.

Scarlett Adler nodded. Even though she wasn’t sure how the outfit was put together, it just looked good.

Fourth smiled slightly. Just then, her phone buzzed. She picked it up and said, “Summer Shaw’s car is

downstairs.”

“Let’s go, let’s head down together!” Scarlett suggested.

And so, the three of them headed downstairs as a family.

In the elevator, Hugo Hodges still seemed a bit uneasy. He looked at Fourth and asked, “Are you sure you

want to go with Summer Shaw alone?”

“Don’t worry, Uncle. Scarlett said that even if Summer Shaw tries to whisk me away, you’ll come and find me!”

Fourth replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Hugo glanced at Scarlett.

Scarlett immediately chimed in, “What, did I say something wrong?”

No, she hadn’t.

But there was more to it.

Hugo lowered his gaze and looked at Fourth. “Don’t worry, Summer Shaw wouldn’t dare. But Fourth…”

“Remember, if anyone bullies you or gives you a hard time, call Uncle right away, okay?”

Feeling loved by her dad was simply the best!

Fourth nodded with a smile, “Got it! With Uncle backing me up, I’m not afraid of anyone!”

Hugo Hodges reached out and patted her head.

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and Scarlett Adler stepped out first, followed by Fourth holding Hugo’s

hand.

Outside, a Mercedes van was parked.

The door was open, and Summer Shaw was sitting inside, dressed casually with her legs crossed, wearing

oversized sunglasses that gave her a star–like aura.

She was looking at something on her phone, and her agent nudged her when Hugo and Scarlett appeared.

Summer looked up, and upon seeing Scarlett and Hugo, she quickly got out of the car.

“Summer Shaw!” Fourth greeted her with a smile.

Summer beamed at Fourth, “Fourth, you look so pretty today!”

“Really? Sister Summer Shaw is also beautiful!”

“Oh, you have such a sweet tongue!”

The two exchanged a few playful words, their interaction so warm and familiar, as if they had known each

other for a long time.

Watching them, Hugo Hodges finally relaxed his tightly furrowed brows a little.

At this moment, Summer Shaw looked at Hugo and Scarlett Adler. “Mr. Hodges, Ms. Adler… are you going

together?”

“No, I’m off to work. I’ll leave the person in your care!” Scarlett replied.

“No trouble at all, but…” Summer turned her gaze to Hugo. “Mr. Hodges…”

“Take good care of Fourth. I don’t want any accidents,” Hugo stated directly.

The implication was clear–he wasn’t going either.

Summer was a bit surprised but then playfully asked, “You both trust me that much?”

Scarlett was speechless.

Hugo was silent.

Seeing their lack of response, Summer laughed and said, “I’m just joking. Don’t worry, I’ll take great care of

Fourth.”

“As long as I’m here, I’ll never let anyone bully her. I swear on my life!”

“I believe you,” Scarlett Adler said.

Summer Shaw was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Scarlett to trust her, especially since they’d only met

once or twice, and their first meeting hadn’t been pleasant. She was momentarily at a loss for words.

At that moment, Hugo Hodges looked at Fourth and said, “Remember what I told you.”

“I got it!” Fourth replied.

After they finished their reminders, Summer finally spoke up, “It’s getting late, we should be going!”

“Take care on the road.”

Summer smiled and helped Fourth into the car.

The agent took the back seat, while Fourth and Summer sat in the middle seats.

“Goodbye, Scarlett. Goodbye, Uncle,” Fourth waved at them.

“Goodbye,” Scarlett said softly.

Hugo watched them, his gaze unreadable.

Then, the car door slowly closed, and the driver drove away.
