Pregnant With Ex's Babies novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424 Still missing just a little bit.

Just as he was thinking, Hugo suddenly heard Ray’s urgent voice through the earpiece.

“J, at the intersection ahead, there’s a black car. Your woman is there!”

Upon hearing this, Hugo locked onto the route and immediately headed in that direction.

“Ray, there’s something you should know. She might be meeting with the boss. She’s at the intersection, probably planning to leave!” Ray said over the phone.

Hugo’s mind went blank for a moment before he picked up speed toward the intersection.

Every step felt like it required all his strength.

“They’re getting in the car!” Ray continued to report.

Hugo moved even faster.

When he reached the intersection, the black car was parked across the street, and he caught a glimpse of Scarlett bending down to get in.

“Scarlett!” Hugo suddenly shouted, ready to dash across, but just then, a car sped by, forcing him to instinctively dodge. By the time he looked up again, the car had already started moving.

“Scarlett!” Hugo shouted again, but by the time he ran over, the car was already far down the road.

Hugo wanted to flag down a car, but they kept passing by without any intention of stopping.

“Damn it!” Hugo muttered under his breath.

He watched helplessly as the car drove out of his sight.

Inside the car, Scarlett sat with headphones on, her expression blank, exuding a cold aura.

The boss sat beside her, glancing back. He had heard Hugo’s voice and seen him running when they got into the car.

Unfortunately, Scarlett hadn’t heard or seen him.

Thinking about it, the boss couldn’t help but smile.

Hugo must be feeling pretty anxious now!

Recalling the humiliating night before, the boss felt a thrill that was more exciting than getting stabbed a few times.

Scarlett seemed to notice his demeanor and turned to him, “What’s up?”

The boss withdrew his gaze and shook his head politely, “Nothing.”

Scarlett then pulled off her headphones and looked at him, “Where’s the stuff I asked for?”

“I’ll give it to you when we arrive,” the boss replied.

Scarlett’s eyes roamed over him.

The boss chuckled, “No need to look at me like that. Don’t worry, I promised you, and I’ll deliver!”

Scarlett turned her gaze away, choosing to remain silent.

At that moment, the boss looked at her, pondering for a moment before speaking in a relaxed manner, “Did you come here

without Hugo?”

Mentioning Hugo, Scarlett glanced sideways, her eyes cold as ice. “That’s none of your business!”

The colder and more defiant she was, the more the boss admired her.

He gave her a look, then leaned back lazily, twisting the ring on his left hand with his right. “Back in Port City, he did me dirty once. If he had come with you, I wouldn’t have let him off easily!”

Scarlett paused at this.

She turned her head, her eyes meeting his.

“This injury of mine is thanks to him,” the boss said, his handsome features showing no trace of anger, even smiling slightly. But there was a chilling coldness in his eyes that sent a shiver down one’s spine.

Scarlett studied him for a moment, then suddenly smirked coldly. “That’s between you two.”

“Oh, you don’t care?” the boss asked.

“He’s a man. He doesn’t need to stand behind me, and he won’t,” Scarlett said, emphasizing each word.

“You saying I’m not a man?” the boss asked, raising an eyebrow.

Scarlett smirked and then looked away with a proud tilt of her head. “You’re the one who said it!”

The boss remained calm, his voice smooth and steady. “I never claim to be a good person. In fact, I’ll do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, so those words won’t provoke me.”

“So, are you telling me I shouldn’t trust you?” Scarlett asked.

The boss raised an eyebrow. “But I do have one virtue–I tell the truth.”

Scarlett glanced at him, let out a cold laugh, and then looked away.

The car sped down the road.

Soon, it stopped at a location.

The door opened, and the boss gestured for her to step out.

Scarlett followed him out of the car.

Looking around, she realized it was an unfamiliar place.

“This isn’t Red Mark Base, is it?” she questioned.

“Of course not,” the boss replied, meeting her gaze. “I haven’t mentioned you to the General yet, so I need to do that first. In the meantime, Ms. Adler, you’ll be staying here for a couple of days.”

Scarlett shot him a glance but remained silent.

She knew that once she was here, leaving wouldn’t be easy. And she wasn’t one to waste effort; she was determined to find something worthwhile.

With that thought, Scarlett Adler lowered her gaze and walked straight inside.

The boss watched her and followed suit.

Overall, the hotel was quite nice.

Scarlett took her belongings to her room, rested for a moment, and noticed it was time for dinner. She headed out directly.

In the hotel restaurant, coincidentally, the boss was there too.
