Hugo wanted to convince herself that Tracy appeared next to Uma. After all, this was a party, and everyone had the possibility of meeting. Uma was not alone with Tracy. In addition to Nicole Kidman, there was also Michelle Pfeiffer, the top actress, and two familiar faces who could not call the actor's name. A group of people stood together and talked happily, without any abnormality.

But all this is very difficult, because first it was Martin and then Tracy. Not long ago, Hugo was just removed from the waitlist for the "icing trap". Coupled with Tracy's deep eyes just now, it was difficult for Hugo to control his thoughts and not think about it.

Hugo took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed his complicated thoughts and walked towards the direction where Uma and others gathered.

The one who saw Hugo first was not Uma or Tracy, but Nicole. She smiled at Hugo with a decent smile, and then waved her hand gently. This action made several others look subconsciously. They also wanted to know who Nicole was greeting him. Now, everyone saw the oncoming Hugo.

Uma's expression stiffened a moment on her face, but she did not dare to look at Hugo's gaze, avoiding her eyes and struggling slightly; while Tracy was not abnormal, as if she had first met Hugo, and nodded slightly to Hugo like several other actresses, that's all.

Hugo soon walked to Uma's side. Uma had returned to normal at this time, with a flamboyant smile on her face and calmness in her eyes. She naturally stood to Hugo's left hand. Hugo bent her waist politely, "Good evening, ladies." Then she said with a smile, "It seems that I have chosen a wrong moment to appear. What should I do? I hope you don't blame me for my recklessness."

"If there was no man coming to say hello, it would make us sad." Nicole continued laughingly. Although it was the first time she met Hugo tonight, they had a very good first impression of each other, so she also expressed her kindness. "What's more, if a gentleman like Hugo came to say hello on his own initiative, many ladies at the scene would be jealous."

Nicole's words made a group of women laugh in a low voice, in various shapes and extremely charming. Tracy, standing among the female companion, did not speak actively, nor did she make any special expressions, but was just like everyone else.

Uma took the conversation at this time and did not let Hugo continue to speak, "Sorry, I may need to be absent for a while, I hope you don't mind."

"Don't worry, you have a lot of time, we won't mind at all." Michelle Pfeiffer, who was standing on Nicole's left, said playfully. She seemed to be familiar with Uma, and she blinked at Uma when she spoke, as if she was hinting about something, which made several others laugh and make Uma blush.

"Then let's say goodbye first. I hope you have a wonderful night." Hugo said goodbye politely, then turned around and walked towards the gate. Hugo whispered to Uma, "Joe has been waiting in the car. Hurry up, we will arrive at Santa Monica before eleven o'clock as much as possible." At this time, the hall was playing soft accompaniment music for everyone to chat, so they could hear it very clearly.

But Uma pulled Hugo away from the original direction and walked towards the stairs, "What's wrong? What else?" Hugo didn't quite understand, "We have been wasting some time..."

"Hugo, you and Joseph go to find Alexander by themselves. I want to stay here." Uma looked at Hugo's eyes and said firmly. The struggle just now had turned into determination, just like Uma's personality, bold, bold and decisive.

Hugo looked at Uma, stunned, he didn't know what was going on, "If you were worried about Nicole and the others, I could go over and explain to them."

"No, it's not them. It's just that I want to stay here." Uma explained, "Hugo, if you want to attend a friend's party, just go there, I choose to stay." There are countless opportunities here, Uma doesn't want to give up, not to mention that her conversation with Nicole and the others just now is getting better, and Michelle Pfeiffer, a goddess-level actor today, can't be met casually. After hesitation, Uma finally made such a decision.

"But..." Hugo was a little angry, but was interrupted by Uma. "I know you agreed with Alexander, but I am not familiar with him, and it is not that I promised to go to his party. Why can't we act separately?" Uma did not call him "Alex", but used the relatively formal and alienated "Alexander". With this little change, you can tell the firmness in her tone.

Uma's words sounded very reasonable at first glance, but when they thought about it carefully, it was not the case, which made Hugo angry. Originally, Uma said he would go to Alex's party with Hugo, and Sidney's party was just an accident, but now Uma has changed his mind. More importantly, "But didn't you agree just now? Say goodbye to Nicole and the others, and then leave?"

"I've changed my mind now." Uma still insisted on her own ideas, and she was still trying to convince Hugo, "Look, I'm very good here, and I've met many friends, and I'm very happy to attend such a party."

"But today is the New Year's Eve! Our first New Year's Eve! Do you want us to be the same as each other during the countdown?" Hugo still couldn't understand. He was dancing and kissing Uma just now. Everything seemed to be good tonight. This is also the only thing that can comfort Hugo in the messy "sugar-coated trap", but why has it become like this now?

"Hugo, we can be together every day, and a countdown has no meaning." Uma still had no idea of ​​changing. Since she decided to stick to it, she had already fully demonstrated this in the process of getting to know Uma and Hugo. "I said, I'm very happy here, so I'm not worried. Of course, if you want to stay, it would be better."

"Impossible." Hugo's anger also emerged. He was depressed enough tonight. Now he still has to get entangled in such matters. "I said that Alex is our friend, and we promised him first!"

Uma shook her head, "I don't want to tell you anymore. Our ideas are completely different. You can't accept my ideas, and I also disagree with your decision. Then why can't you do what I said? I'm very good here, so you let me stay here. Isn't this a happy time? Isn't it necessary to go there!"

"But you are my girl!" Hugo said angrily, but after he finished speaking, he still did not see any shaking on Uma's face, which made Hugo frown. The amber eyes gradually deepened. He suddenly realized something. Joseph's words suddenly rushed into his mind, and Hugo blurted out, "Does Martin or Tracy say something to you just now?"

Hugo didn't want to suspect, but he couldn't control his thoughts.

Uma paused when she heard this, and seemed a little panicked, but immediately stared at Hugo's angry eyes unwaveringly, "Don't change the subject, I want to stay, you know, it has nothing to do with anyone. Don't use your dirty thoughts to doubt me!" Uma knew almost the same about the "sugar-coated trap", and the matter about Tracy was just some rumors in the circle, but that was enough. Uma knew why Hugo had such doubts, so she refuted.

Hugo didn't say anything, his eyes locked Uma's eyes motionlessly. Although Uma's mouth was trembling slightly, he looked back without any fear. About three seconds later, Hugo let out a long sigh, "Sorry, I'm too sensitive." After apologizing, Hugo's eyes softened a little, but he still asked again, "Uma, are you sure you don't want to go to Alex's party with me? Today is the last day of 1992..."

"Don't want it." Uma's answer was firm and there was no room for maneuver.

Hugo closed his eyes angrily and took a deep breath. He wanted to understand Uma's decision, but it didn't work, at least it didn't work at this moment; he wanted to kiss Uma's cheek, but it didn't work, at least in his current emotional state. So, in the end, Hugo just hugged Uma gently, and then whispered, "Happy New Year." Then he turned around and left.

Hugo's steps became particularly bold and compact because of his anger. He disappeared at the gate in just a few big steps. The tight muscles could be clearly seen from his back, showing his bad mood. Uma adjusted her breathing, then turned around and walked back towards Nicole, Michelle, Tracy and others.

Joseph saw Hugo coming alone, then sat in the passenger seat, looked around and saw that there was no Uma at all, but before he asked a question, Leonardo asked for a question on his behalf, "You are the only one? Where is Wonder Woman?"

Hugo buckled the seat belt and let out a long sigh, "Wonder Woman is going to save the world." Then he said to Joseph, "Let's go, Alex is still waiting for us."

Although Hugo didn't say anything, Joseph felt a strong sense of anxiety. The scene of Uma and Martin just now was inexplicably replayed in his mind. However, Joseph knew that this was not a good time to have an in-depth conversation, so he suppressed his thoughts and started the car.

Leonardo and Toby sat in the back seats and looked at each other, but didn't know what was going on. Leonardo was feeling a little depressed when he saw Hugo, so he opened the car window and howled, "Oh yell, we're going to the real party! Party! Party!"

Hugo couldn't help laughing when he heard Leonardo's excited voice. He also opened the window and said to Leonardo behind him, "What you call a real party is an alcoholic party!"
