Pregnant With Ex's Babies novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373 She is more important to me than my own life!

Hearing this, Fourth finally relented.

“Alright then, I’ll call Scarlett before bed,” she said, putting her phone away.

Although she sensed something was off, she didn’t give it much thought.

Just then, Second spoke up, “I heard Scarlett’s business trip has been a bit troublesome, and it’s often hard to reach her

on the phone!”

Fourth frowned, “How could that be?”

“Who knows!” Second replied.

Fourth pondered for a moment, “Scarlett must be having a tough time. When she gets back, we should definitely treat her

well!”

Second nodded in agreement.

Fourth didn’t say much more and focused on her dessert.

With a gentle breeze, dessert, and the night view, Fourth was almost completely absorbed in the moment.

After a while, she looked into the distance and murmured softly, “Actually, I miss Scarlett too. I’ve never been away from

her for this long…”

Her words brought a silence over First and Second.

Hugo Hodges lowered his gaze and then spoke, “Alright, let’s eat. It won’t taste as good if you wait too long.”

Fourth looked at the dessert in front of her, forcing a smile before continuing to eat.

It was quite late when Hugo finally drove them back.

As the car stopped at the entrance of the estate, Fourth looked at him, “Daddy, it’s so late. Do you want to stay here

tonight?”

Seeing the reluctance in her eyes, Hugo steeled himself, “No, I have some things to handle. I’ll come back for a short stay

once I’m done!”

Fourth nodded, “Alright, I have to go to the set for filming early tomorrow anyway. Safe travels, Daddy. Fourth will be

waiting for you and Scarlett to come back!”

“Okay.” Hugo nodded at her.

Second got out of the car, and First was the last to leave. Before stepping out, he looked at Hugo with a hesitant

expression.

Hugo noticed and said, “Trust me, I promised you, and I will keep my word!”

First nodded and prepared to get out. As he bent down, Hugo noticed the emptiness around his neck, his gaze lingering

for a moment before he followed them out of the car.

“First!” he suddenly called out.

First turned around, his gaze meeting Hugo’s.

Hugo walked over and looked at him. “I noticed you used to wear a necklace all the time. How come you’re not wearing it

today?”

First paused for a moment before replying, “I gave it away.”

“Gave it away? To whom?”

“A classmate,” First said confidently.

Seeing First’s calm demeanor, Hugo’s gaze lingered for a moment before he nodded. “Got it.”

“Is there a problem?” First asked.

“No, just remembered it suddenly and thought I’d ask,” Hugo replied.

First didn’t offer any more explanation. “I’ll head back now.”

“Alright,” Hugo nodded, then turned to the two standing nearby. “Get some rest.”

“Got it, Dad. Be careful on your way!” Fourth smiled sweetly at him.

Hugo smiled back, watching until the three of them entered the estate before driving away.

Inside the estate, the smiles on their faces faded. Second looked at First. “Why did Dad suddenly ask about the

necklace?”

First suddenly recalled what Tara had said in the morning. Hugo’s words were filled with suspicion toward her. If that’s the case, the exposure of the necklace would inevitably lead to suspicion falling on him.

“It must have been the person who took the necklace that exposed us, describing the events of that night to Dad. That’s

why he’s suspicious of us,” First said.

“Does that mean Dad knows it was us that night?” Fourth asked.

“Dad is probably just guessing. He has no evidence. It’s hard for him to imagine that three kids would do something like

this,” Second analyzed.

First frowned, not wanting to dwell on the matter. Right now, he just wanted to find out where Scarlett was.

“Forget it. There’s no evidence, so we’ll deal with it later,” First said, looking at them. “I’m tired. I’m going to rest. You

should get some sleep too.” With that, he turned and headed to his room before they could say anything.

Watching him leave, Second and Fourth exchanged a glance, frowning, and then followed him.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

On the way back, Hugo’s phone rang. Seeing it was Ray calling, he answered immediately, “Hey, Ray.”

“The one with the codename ‘Boss‘ has indeed returned to the Middle East, but he didn’t go straight to the headquarters.

Instead, he’s at a hotel in Syria,” Ray reported.

Hearing this, Hugo frowned, “And then?”

“The strange thing is, he hasn’t made any moves. I had someone check, and he doesn’t seem to have any tasks. He’s just

staying at the hotel, like he’s waiting for someone or something,” Ray said.

“Has he met with anyone?” Hugo asked.

“No, it seems like he’s injured. He hasn’t even called a doctor, just makes phone calls every day,” Ray replied.

“Can you find out who he’s calling?” Hugo inquired.
