Chapter 1774 1774 Farewell to the past

Charlize knew that Hugo had arrived here today and was very tired all the way, and he had to consider his left knee, so Hugo was completely exhausted at this time, completely asleep, and even heard his even breathing sound. So, she didn't plan to wake Hugo, but at least she had to let Cameron know that Hugo was in good condition.

So, Charlize picked up his cell phone, and Cameron's call gradually became clear, "Hugo? Hey! Hugo!" Charlize's voice explained calmly, "He fell asleep."

This made Cameron panic. She couldn't even suppress her incoherence, "Then... then you... but... he said... then now..." Hugo clearly said that he would open a room again, but why is he asleep now?

Charlize glanced at the back of Hugo's head, and his mentality calmed down. Thinking of what had just happened and thinking about the days when he lived together in Sunset Square, Charlize's smile gently outlined, "Don't worry, Hugo and I are just friends. In a sense, he is just a woman to me, and I am just a man to him. You have to believe in Hugo, he is not interested in men."

"You know I didn't mean that." Charlize's joke couldn't make Cameron laugh. She just felt that her mind was full of mixed thoughts. In fact, before calling, Cameron had been thinking about it for several hours, and even made up many versions of the story. Even the worst case had been preset. Now Charlize's words should make her feel at ease, but she had no way to feel at ease. "I mean, you two... Hugo... like this..."

Cameron said for a long time, but couldn't say a word. Then she heard Charlize say "That's it, good night", and the phone was hung up. Cameron looked at the cell phone with a busy voice coming from his hand, and looked surprised, and finally murmured in a low voice, "But... But..." After all, she still couldn't say anything. She wanted to believe Hugo, she should believe Hugo, but...

Charlize hung up the phone, put his cell phone at the head of the bed, looked back at Hugo who was sleeping, and couldn't help but smile and shook her head. This reminded her of the time when she was in Sunset Square, where she, Hugo and Alex often chatted in the living room until midnight. It was very likely that someone fell asleep first, but the other two people threw the person on the sofa and went back to the room to sleep. Several times, she woke up on the sofa in the middle of the night, and then went back to the room in a daze.

Hugo always sleeps like a child, and sometimes even drools on the pillow. For this reason, she and Alex laughed at Hugo several times, and even once again she and Alex were still painting on Hugo's face. As a result, the next morning, the house was also lively.

Now, Hugo's sleeping habits remained unchanged. Looking at the shiny water stains on the corner of Hugo's mouth, Charlize wanted to laugh. She had to bite her lips, then walked out of the bed with her toes. She picked up a can of beer from the table, tiptoed to the windowsill, looked at the endless vineyard outside the window, and drank beer one after another.

At this time, Charlize also felt the fatigue invasion. Today, she had been tired all day. She flew back to Los Angeles from New York in the morning. After dealing with the media, she went to the Enjin Elite Agency again, and then sneaked to Mr. Perfect's apartment... She had been rushing all day, but now she felt that the soreness of her muscles suddenly burst out.

It was not until now that Charlize had time to clarify his thoughts. In fact, deep down in her heart, she knew that there had always been problems between her and Mr. Perfect. She refused to continue to take another step forward, and he always felt unsafe inferiority.

This situation reached its peak after she took over the script of "Devil Spokesperson". Then "Romeo and Juliet" achieved another good success. Not only did her acting skills get positive reviews, but she also entered the Berlin Film Festival. When all the contradictions reached their peak, she and he chose to avoid it, and then she went to New York to shoot "Devil Spokesperson"... It happened like this. Perhaps, Charlize had expected that this day would come, and she and him would eventually come to the end, but he did not expect that they would leave in this way. He resolutely said goodbye.

Everything caught people off guard.

But that's fine. Cut the mess with a quick knife, cut everything down and clean it up completely. After tonight, she can leave all the past in Napa Town and start a new day. However, she doesn't like this way of ending because it's like all the mistakes are pushed on her. As Hugo said, she has to learn not to cause trouble for herself anymore.

Turning his head to look at Hugo who was sleeping peacefully, Charlize gently smiled. At least she has a good friend like Hugo, which she will never lose, and that others cannot take away. It is enough to have a confidant in her life, and people should not be too greedy.

Looking at the clock on the walls of the room, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and Charlize realized that it was a brand new day. This means that she had become a past yesterday, and all the bad worries became past, and truly became history. Thinking of this, Charlize couldn't help but smile, and there was an unprecedented relief in her eyes.

With his legs curled up, Charlize poured the beer in his hand in one breath again, burped comfortably, and laughed proudly, "Sure enough, I still like beer."

When Hugo woke up, he saw Charlize curled up on the windowsill and fell asleep, leaning against the window, like a pitiful vagabond on the street. Looking back, he saw that the double bed he was lying on was half empty and had no use at all. There were only scattered beer bottles and cans on it, which was really wasteful.

Hugo couldn't help but smile, then picked up a beer bottle can and smashed it directly into the window. With a crisp "clang", Charlize woke up directly, "What? What?" The hasty expression made Hugo unable to help it anymore and laughed out loud.

Only then did Charlize understand what was going on and looked at Hugo with contempt, "Are you six?" Then he picked up the remaining beer can on the windowsill and threw it at Hugo. But she didn't expect that she had forgotten the beer in her hand before she finished drinking it, and the beer spilled on her entire sleeve.

Hugo had already laughed so hard that his stomach hurt and almost turned down from the edge of the bed.

Charlize gritted his teeth, "Sorry, my fault, you are only three years old!" Then he took the beer can and trotted into the bathroom. After closing the door, Hugo realized, "Hey! Charlize! I want to use the bathroom, don't stay inside for too long."

After a while of dullness, there was no sound, and then Charlize laughed wildly inside, "Hahahaha." This is what she answered to Hugo.

When the two of them got into the car, it was already past eleven o'clock. The sun above their heads was extremely hot, and the endless vineyard was unfolding in sight, and the scenery was beautiful. Charlize saw Hugo walking towards the driver's seat, then greeted Hugo and grabbed Hugo, "Give me the key." They decided to drive Hugo's retro car, because the paparazzi had not taken a photo, so Charlize's car stayed here first and then sent someone to drive back.

Hugo shrugged, "I'm fine, I drove it by myself yesterday."

"I have something to do, I dare not take your car." Charlize rolled his eyes and snatched the car key from Hugo. Charlize knew that Hugo was fine, but Hugo drove for too long yesterday. Even though he had no psychological barriers now, things had to be done step by step. It was more appropriate for her to drive today.

"Hey, ma'am, you know, driving rights are his dignity for men." Hugo argued unwillingly behind.

"Not for you." Charlize didn't need to look back and knew that Hugo was now with a depressed expression. She explained loudly, "I drive to Pasadena, put me down, and drive back to Long Beach by yourself." Charlize walked to the driver's seat. "I don't want to be photographed by paparazzi, and then another group of people came over and asked me how Hugo was acting on a date. For God's sake, how do I know."

Hugo was also amused by Charlize's vivid words and did not argue about driving rights. He opened the passenger seat and sat in. Charlize also sat in the car, fastened his seat belt, and then complained, "I can't imagine the media's excitement when we were photographed by paparazzi like this."

Hugo looked at the white T-shirt with "palm tree" printed on Charlize, just like him, the one in the motel wardrobe, in other words... couple outfits. Then he burst out laughing, "Don't worry, I'll pour a bottle of ketchup on the clothes later, and it will look much better."

"Of course, if you want to stand on the side of the road and provoke flies." Charlize began to reverse and complained without looking back. Obviously, Charlize had recovered his vitality. Yesterday's collapse of heaven and earth completely vented all the negative emotions in his heart. Sometimes, tears are the best medicine.

Drive back all the way from Napa Town, the beautiful scenery on both sides makes the vision never tired, and even if you just look out the window quietly, it makes the journey interesting. Pasadena seems to have arrived in a blink of an eye, and Charlize parked his car on a random residential block, looking like a passing tourist.

"Be careful on your way back, don't be caught by the paparazzi. I'll call you if you have something to do." Charlize said simply and casually, causing Hugo to chuckled, and asked, "Are you sure you don't need me to let Rick come and pick you up?"

Charlize shrugged, "I am an adult, an adult man, believe me, Pasadena is not Amazon." After that, Charlize opened the car door and left freely.
