    Hugo’s words had indeed eased some of Scarlett’s guilt.

    In the darkness, Scarlett looked at his refined face. This man seemed to possess an innate nobility, maintaining elegance

    wherever he went, making it impossible for anyone to ignore him.

    “And what about you?” Scarlett asked, her eyes fixed on him.

    “What?”

    “What do you think?” she pressed.

    Hugo adjusted his stance, turning slightly to look at her with intense eyes. “Does my opinion matter to you?”

    “Maybe,” Scarlett raised an eyebrow.

    Hugo squinted, pretending to ponder for a moment, then said, “Want the truth?”

    Scarlett gave him a yful look, “Are you saying you were just ttering me earlier?”

    Hugo chuckled, his gaze turning serious. “Of course not. In my heart, you’re far more perfect than you are in the eyes of

    those three little ones. If there were no limit to scores, your perfection would be limitless!”

    Scarlettughed at his words, her gaze drifting into the distance, her smile graceful and captivating.

    “I’m serious,” Hugo said, looking at her intently.

    Scarlett kept smiling, “I never realized you were so good at sweet–talking. You’ve probably used this trick on quite a few

    girls, haven’t you?”

    “Do you really think I need to resort to tricks to get girls?” Hugo asked.

    Scarlett studied him. Indeed, Hugo had plenty of charm. Even if he did nothing, there were plenty of girls eager to throw

    themselves at him.

    He truly didn’t need to rely on deception.

    For as long as he’d known her, Scarlett had always been strong or indifferent. She never acted like this, pretending to be upset just so he wouldfort her, showing a girlish side.

    Hugo walked toward her, looking at her slightly flushed face, and spoke softly, “Scarlett, don’t go drinking with other guys so casually in the future.”

    “Because it’s too easy to fall for,” Hugo replied.

    Scarlett was speechless for a moment.

    Looking at Hugo, she didn’t shy away from his gaze for once. Instead, she gently lowered her longshes and said, “Soi, /i

    are you telling me you’ve fallen for me?”

    “Yes!” Hugo nodded, admitting that his heart had been swayed for a while now.

    Scarlett watched him, her cool eyes shifting slightly. Then, suddenly, she stepped closer, stood ion /iher tiptoes, and gave

    him a light kiss on the lips.

    It was just a soft, gentle kiss.

    Yet Hugo was stunned.

    He wasn’t some innocent guy, but at that moment, he found himself lost.

    He looked down at her, trying to figure out if she had too much to drink.

    Scarlett raised an eyebrowzily, teasing him, “And what about that?”

    “Do you even know what you’re doing?” Hugo asked, his voice rough and his Adam’s apple bobbing.

    She was igniting a fire.

    A fire that had been waiting to burn for a long time.

    Scarlett Adler chuckled softly, “Are you suggesting I’ve had too much to drink?” She nced at the half–full ss of red wine in her hand, swirled it gently, and then raised it to her lips, finishing it in one go.

    “I’ve had quite a bit, but I’m not drunk,” Scarlett remarked, looking at the empty ss with a sense of satisfaction.

    As Hugo Hodges watched her elegant neck and those rosy lips, his calm demeanor vanished in an instant. He reached out, cupping the back of her head, and pressed his lips against hers.

    Though he’d been restraining himself after drinking, this time, it wasn’t him who sparked the fire.

    His kiss was aggressive, trapping her in a confined space. Hugo’s kiss was fierce and domineering, as if he wanted to

    consume her entirely.

    Scarlett was momentarily stunned, but then she gradually rxed. Under his intense pursuit, her legs felt weak, and a

    blush appeared on her delicate face.

    Slowly, Scarlett reached out, gently wrapping her arms around his waist.

    Hugo pressed her against the railing, supporting her back with one hand, rapidly conquering the territory, with each kiss

    growing deeper…

    In the darkness of the night, they kissed passionately on the balcony.

    Scarlett didn’t resist. As a normal woman, she had her own desires and needs, especially when faced with such an

    attractive man.

    With the influence of alcohol, Scarlett just wanted to lose herself in the moment, even if it was just a fleeting dream.

    After what felt like an eternity, Scarlett found it hard to breathe, and Hugo finally released her.

    Breathing heavily, her cheeks flushed, Scarlett’s eyes were dazed.

    Hugo, with a deep gaze, looked at her, “Scarlett…”

    “Hmm?”

    “Should we go to iyour /iroom?” he asked.

    Scarlett’s heart raced as she looked at him, knowing full well what would happen if she nodded.

    As she hesitated, Hugo had already scooped her up and was heading toward the bedroom.

    “Hugo…” she murmured, wrapping her arms around his neck, feeling a bit anxious.

    Even with the alcohol’s encouragement, Scarlett was nervous. Starting the fire and getting burned by it were two very

    different things.

    However, Hugo just nced at her without saying a word and headed straight to the bedroom.

    The room was dark, but with the faint light from outside, Hugo managed to find his way to the bed and gently ced

    Scarlett down.

    “Hugo…” Scarlett looked at him, her eyes seeming much clearer now.

    Just as she was about to speak, Hugo leaned down and kissed her again. This time, it wasn’t the forceful, demanding kiss from before. It was gentle, savoring, and teasing, stirring something deep within her.

    Scarlett’s words were swallowed back by his kiss.

    In the darkness, Hugo remained unhurried. Despite being a mother of three, Scarlett felt as inexperienced as a neer,

    her innocence both thrilling and frustrating.

    Under Hugo’s guidance, Scarlett began to respond to his kiss.

    Let’s just pretend it’s a dream, Scarlett thought.

    The two of them were wrapped in an intense, lingering embrace.

    As the tension of an impending battle loomed, Hugo kissed the dazed person in his arms and asked, “Scarlett, you’re the

    Shadow Walker, aren’t you?”

    Upon hearing Hugo’s words, Scarlett, who had been lost in the moment, suddenly snapped back to reality. Her eyes flew iopen/i, and she stared directly at him.
