Pregnant With Ex's Babies novel Chapter 420

Chapter 420 Daddy, are you jealous?

Seeing First appear, Second let out a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but want to roll his eyes.

First sure knew how to make an entrance.

With First here to spar with Hugo, Second could relax a bit.

As expected, the moment First showed up, Hugo’s attention shifted to him. Narrowing his eyes, Hugo asked, “Did you find any clues? What clues?”

First walked over and took a seat across from Hugo. Just then, a servant brought over another breakfast and placed it in

front of him.

Instead of diving into the meal, First looked at Hugo and said, “I can tell you, but I have one condition.”

Hugo narrowed his eyes, already guessing what First was up to.

“Speak!”

“So, you’re agreeing?” First asked.

Hugo glanced at him, “That depends on whether your information is worth the trade!”

“If that’s the case, I might not dare tell you!” First replied.

Hugo’s brows furrowed, “Are you bargaining with me?”

“Dad, I’m trying to ensure mutual benefits. Cooperation maximizes gains. Doing it your way would be a waste of effort!”

Listening to his words, Hugo chuckled softly, “You actually know what a community of interests is?”

“I know a little bit, but of course, I’m nothing compared to you, Dad!” First said, his words carrying a hint of flattery

towards Hugo.

After all, if he wanted to stay here, a bit of praise was necessary.

Hugo snorted.

“So, what do you think about this partnership? Are we on?” First asked, his eyes sparkling with intelligence.

Hugo pondered for a moment, raising an eyebrow, “We’re on.”

Seeing Hugo agree so readily, First smiled, “You said it, no backing out!”

“Of course!” Hugo nodded.

First thought for a moment before speaking, “Here’s the thing, a few years ago, Tara Green was on a mission here…”

After briefly explaining the situation, First looked at him, “That’s how it is. We only found out about this a couple of days

ago.”

At this, Hugo narrowed his eyes, “So, your grandfather really was part of the Red Mark Base?”

“Yes, it’s confirmed now!” First replied, “But whether his death had anything to do with the Red Mark Base, that’s still

“According to what you’ve said, the Red Mark Base is bloodthirsty. How could they possibly let someone with such talent leave so easily?” Hugo muttered.

“So, Dad, is that what you think too?” First asked.

“Isn’t it obvious?” Hugo chuckled softly.

“Second and I figured the same. Now, we just need a witness!” First said.

“Don’t tell Scarlett about this yet!” Hugo advised.

First hesitated, “Uh…”

Noticing First’s uneasy expression, Hugo frowned slightly, “You told her?”

First’s voice turned sheepish, “When I found out, I was worried Scarlett might be deceived, so I blurted it out…”

Hugo was speechless.

“I was just concerned that someone from the Red Mark Base might trick Scarlett, so I warned her to be cautious!” First explained.

“With Scarlett’s temperament, knowing this will only make her more determined to risk herself to find the truth!” Hugo said with certainty.

ed in agreement.

st leaned in closer, looking at him. “So, Dad, do you have any news about Scarlett?”

At this, Hugo looked up at him. “You don’t need to worry about Scarlett.”

First immediately sat up straight. “Dad, what do you mean by that?”

“What do you think?”

“No, Dad, are you going back on your word?”

“How am I going back on my word?”

Scarlett, it’s best if you don’t leave this castle.”

protested, “Dad, that’s like being imprisoned!”

“Imprisonment doesn’t come with good food and drink,” Hugo replied, looking at him.

“Dad!”

“Either go back, or stay here and not go anywhere. Your choice!” Hugo said, looking at him.

First was momentarily at a loss for words.

He looked at Hugo, unable to speak for a while.

However, knowing when to yield is wise, so he decided to stay quiet for now.

First stopped talking, lowered his gaze, and focused on eating.

At this point, Hugo turned to Second. “What about you?”

What could Second say? If First was keeping quiet, he had no choice but to follow suit.

He lowered his gaze and obediently started eating.

Seeing the two of them silent, Hugo finally felt relieved.

The three of them sat together, eating in silence.

After a moment, Hugo suddenly asked, “Do you know the anonymous person?”

Cough, cough…

First, caught off guard while eating, started coughing.

Second paused mid–bite, surprised by the question.

Hugo narrowed his eyes and looked at First.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

First quickly shook his head. “Nothing!” he said, grabbing a napkin to wipe his mouth.

Once he composed himself, First looked at Hugo and pretended to clear his throat.

“Seems like you do know them,” Hugo remarked, glancing at him.

First thought for a moment. Maybe it was time to come clean?

Maybe, he could stay here openly.

With that thought, First spoke up, “Dad, actually…”

“The one who helped you hack into Chris Baker’s computer and hide your information, it was him, wasn’t it?” Hugo asked.

Uh…

First looked at him, pondering. What did Dad mean by that?

“Dad, what exactly are you trying to say?” First asked.

Hugo took a deep breath, thinking for a while before speaking, “I heard he’s quite close with your friend Scarlett…?”

Uh?

What???
