everything.
Seeing Tara looking so serious, First asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Tara’s face was tense. “The buyer said they can’t make it!”
“They can’t make it? Why?” First inquired.
Tara shook her head. “No idea.”
“So what do we do?”

“If they can’t come, they can’t come. It’s not like they’re my only channel!” She glanced up at First. “But I still need to check
it out. I’ll let you know when I have more info.”
“Alright,” First nodded. “Sounds good.”
Tara put down her utensils and got up to leave.
Watching her walk away, First asked, “You’re not eating?”
“I’m full of frustration!”
First was left speechless.
As he watched her leave, a small smile appeared on his lips. Tara might seem carefree at times, but she was always
serious when it came to business.
With that thought, First felt reassured and continued with his breakfast.
Meanwhile, on the other side of town.
Hugo had picked up breakfast and went straight to find Scarlett.
However, despite knocking on the door for quite some time, there was no response from inside.

Checking the time, Hugo pulled out his phone to call her.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable!”
Hugo frowned. Since yesterday, her phone had been unreachable.
Could she still be asleep?
But at this hour, that didn’t seem right!
He knocked on the door again, but there was still no response.
After thinking for a moment, Hugo decided to call Fourth.
“Daddy?” Fourth’s voice on the other end was still sleepy and lazy.
“Fourth, what’s the passcode for the apartment door?” Hugo asked.
“Passcode? Let me think… oh, it’s 123321!” Fourth replied in a cute, sleepy voice.

As Hugo entered the code, he asked, “Why set such a simple passcode?”
“Scarlett set it. She said any passcode can be cracked, so it doesn’t matter if it’s simple or not. If someone really wants to
steal, a door lock won’t stop them!” Fourth said softly.
However, when Hugo entered the passcode, it showed an error.
Thinking he might have entered it wrong, he tried again, but the door still wouldn’t open.
Furrowing his brow, “Fourth, are you sure this is the password?”
“Yeah, 123321. My brothers and I even joked that these numbers are just like the three of us!”
“The password isn’t working,” Hugo said sternly.
“Uh, maybe it was changed?” Fourth wondered aloud. “I’m not really sure. We usually use fingerprints, so I rarely enter the
password. Scarlett might have changed it at some point. You should call her!”

“Her phone isn’t connecting,” Hugo replied.

“Scarlett’s probably still asleep. She can sleep way more than I can. Sometimes she sleeps for a whole day and night without waking up!” Fourth said, sounding so sleepy that it seemed like he could doze off at any moment.
Hugo frowned slightly and murmured, “Got it.”
“Dad, if there’s nothing else, I’m going back to sleep. I’m so tired…”
“Okay,” Hugo replied before hanging up the phone.
He looked at the large door, pondering for a moment, then placed the breakfast by the entrance.
He pulled out his phone and sent Scarlett a message.
“Breakfast is at the door. Remember to eat, and call me back when you wake up!”
After sending the message, Hugo hesitated for a moment before getting up to leave.
There was a pile of work waiting for him at the office, and he had only taken a short break to check in. Once he left, he
headed straight back to work.
The morning flew by in a blur of activity.
As noon approached, Hugo picked up his phone, but there was still no call from Scarlett. Not even a message.
He frowned.
Just as he was about to call her again, Henry burst into the room.
“Boss.”
Seeing Henry’s urgency, Hugo’s frown deepened.
“Boss, the people from Red Mark Base have left,” Henry said seriously.
“They left? When?” Hugo’s eyes darkened.

“This morning.”
His deep eyes narrowed as he murmured to himself, “They left, just like that?”

“Yeah, I’m surprised too. Normally, the Red Mark Base folks are known for holding grudges. After suffering such a loss, I
didn’t expect them to leave without a trace. Usually, they’d leave something behind.”
Henry was deep in thought.
Even Henry knew this was going to happen.
Hugo was even more worried.
“Did the Red Mark people leave?” Hugo asked.
“Yes, they’re all gone, not a single person left behind.”
“That’s even stranger…” Hugo murmured quietly. Based on what the boss told him that day, he was sure something would
happen, not just a quiet retreat.
At this moment, Hugo was truly puzzled.
“Did we find their place?” Hugo asked.
“Yeah, we found it.”
“Let’s go check it out!” Hugo said, getting up immediately.
Henry hesitated for a moment, unsure of what Hugo was looking for, but followed him anyway.
On the way.
Hugo sat in the back, his eyes fixed on his phone, his brow furrowed.
Seeing no messages or calls, he thought for a moment and dialed Scarlett’s number.
Just like yesterday, it was temporarily unavailable.

Henry sat in the front for a while, observing, and couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, are you calling the future Mrs. Hodges?”
Hugo didn’t look up, responding coolly, “Yeah.”
“Should I take you to see her?” Henry suggested.

As soon as he said it, Hugo glanced up, his dark eyes filled with a moment of doubt, then he replied, “No need. She’s
probably still asleep.”
“Still asleep?” Henry checked the time and couldn’t resist teasing, “Isn’t it a bit late for her to still be sleeping?”
Hugo’s gaze shot over, “Does that bother you?”
< Chapter 366 Unknowingly, Scarlett Adler occupied everything.
Henry quickly backtracked, “That’s not what I meant.”
“I’ve noticed you’ve been quite chatty lately,” Hugo said in a low voice, his eyes sharp.
“I’m just trying to keep you entertained, boss.”
“Just focus on driving.”
“Yes, sir!”
With Henry silenced, Hugo looked down at his phone, hesitated for a moment, and then put it away.
The car drove on for about half an hour.

During that time, Hugo checked his phone countless times, but there was no sign of any message from Scarlett.
He never knew that waiting for someone could be such a torment.
Even more surprising was how, without realizing it, Scarlett Adler had completely taken over his thoughts. Her every move
Even more surprising was how, without realizing it, Scarlett Adler had completely taken over his thoughts. Her every move
tugged at his heartstrings, consuming his every moment.
