Chapter 308 308 Bad Conversation

Before Hugo could change his clothes, he took the key and trotted out, went to the pharmacy on the street next door to buy aspirin, and then trotted all the way back and forth. Although Hugo ran all the way, it took nearly ten minutes to go back and forth because the distance was a bit far. When Hugo returned home panting, he saw Charlize lying on the ground.

If Hugo hadn't known that Charlize was just a physical pain, he would have thought it was the scene of the murder, "What are you doing on the ground?"

"I think the floor looks warmer." Charlize kept rubbing his stomach and lay on the knitted carpet in front of her bed, causing Hugo to roll his eyes speechlessly.

"Our home has concrete floors, not wooden floors." Hugo walked to Charlize, squatted down, then reached out and touched Charlize's bed. She slept on the wooden bed mainly to keep her spine straight. Although a thin blanket was laid on the wooden board, it was indeed not easy to warm.

Hugo looked around and said, "Or, you go and lie down on the sofa? Although the length is a little short, it's okay to see if you shrink into a ball." The warmth effect of the sofa is probably better.

Charlize didn't say anything, supported himself and sat up, then saw the brown paper bag that Hugo placed on the ground, and then felt a little relieved, "It's okay, I'll get better after taking the medicine."

Hugo frowned, "Are you sure?" Hugo didn't know much about these problems, so he couldn't make an accurate judgment. After seeing Charlize nodding to confirm, Hugo stopped insisting, "Wait, I'll put another layer of the blanket, and you'll be better if you lie on it."

Charlize leaned on the edge of the bed and watched Hugo get in and out. He first brought warm water in and asked himself to take the medicine; then after preparing the bed, he took the water cup in his hand and placed it on the head of the bed. Charlize originally wanted to stand up and rest in the bed again, but he didn't expect Hugo to bend down again. Before Charlize reacted, he picked up Charlize up directly.

Charlize was not ready for a moment, and let out a low voice, subconsciously grasping the support with both hands. When she noticed it, she realized that she was holding Hugo's neck and pressing her whole body against Hugo's solid chest. The manly breath instantly wrapped Charlize unreasonably, and then suddenly rose from the ground to mid-air. Her heartbeat suddenly became high, which made Charlize's cheeks heat up in an instant.

But Hugo didn't have much thought. After he picked up Charlize, his breath was not disordered. Then he carefully placed Charlize flat on the bed and covered the quilt for Charlize. After all this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Hugo in front of him, Charlize quietly floated his eyes aside, cleared his throat and started to tease, "Looking at how careful you are, others think I have a terminal illness."

Hugo was amused by Charlize's words, "I have the strength to start fighting back, it seems that it is effective." Charlize bit his teeth hatefully, but as soon as he exerted force, it became so painful that it loosened, and his whole body curled up again. Seeing Charlize's delicate eyebrows tangled together, Hugo could only sigh, "You girls...how much does it hurt to have physical pain?"

Charlize glanced at Hugo, nestled in the quilt, muttering, "Imagine the pain of your fingers being pinched by the car door, and then ten times in a row, irregularly lasting two to three days." Hugo just imagined it, and was grinning when Charlize said it, as if the pain was so painful that his teeth began to twitch, which made a snicker appear in Charlize's eyes.

"Then... then you have a good rest. If you have something to do, call me. I'll watch TV in the hall." Hugo quickly stood up. Charlize was in menstruation now and probably didn't have the strength to speak. Staying here all the time made Charlize uncomfortable, "By the way, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

However, Charlize did not reply and glared at Hugo fiercely. It was obvious that another wave of pain was coming, which made Charlize no longer have the strength to speak. Hugo shrank his neck, walked out quickly, and then closed the door of the room, standing at the door. Hugo breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't understand the situation of girls once a month. In the past year, Charlize had not seen such severe cases when he had a period of time. Hugo guessed that Charlize was under too much pressure recently.

Hugo stood there and wandered for a moment. Charlize's sudden situation just now disrupted his plan. He couldn't even remember what he wanted to do just now. After careful recollection, Hugo remembered that he planned to make coffee, but the steps just now were interrupted, and now he had to start over.

After the coffee was brewed, Hugo tasted the aroma of the coffee and then gradually calmed down. Ernst's situation entered Hugo's head again. He thought about it, and came to the phone with the coffee. He picked up the earpiece and thought carefully. What should he say when calling Adam, but after standing there for a long time, he still had no idea in his head. In desperation, Hugo could only take one step at a time and pressed the set of strange and familiar phone numbers.

"Adam Lancaster, speak!" My father's old but powerful voice rushed out of the receiver, making Hugo's eardrum buzz. At least it was a positive signal, indicating that there was no problem with Adam's body.

"Hey, dad, it's me, Hugo." Hugo said in a brisk voice, "How are you... how lately? Is everything going well?"

"If you have something to do, don't go around in circles." Adam obviously didn't buy Hugo's flattery, and swept away all his politeness.

Hugo was very helpless about this, "Dad, you are my father. I will call you to ask about your current situation. Isn't this normal? Why do you always make things complicated?"

"Because this is not you, nor me!" Adam's hoarse voice was like sandpaper groping, creaking, "What the hell is going on? Since Thanksgiving last year, I have been calling me, like a different person! What the hell are you damning? If it was for your mother, I told you that our relationship broke down, I beat her hard and drove her away. This is the fact, the fact!"

Hugo was so nervous about Adam's words that Adam was the father of this skin. If he noticed the abnormality, it would be a bad thing. Fortunately, Adam obviously did not think that his son had changed, but thought that his son had something to do, and the mother's topic was still a taboo.

The subsequent topic surprised Hugo. The fact that his mother Lina left was actually like this. Adam and Lina's relationship broke down, and then Adam drove away his wife, which also caused the father-son relationship between Adam and Hugo torn apart. Then Hugo came to Los Angeles to pursue the actor's dream, which made the relationship between father and son die in name only.

This was the first time Hugo heard the truth about his family. The bursting speed was so fast that he could not react for a while. But what happened to Hugo and Lancaster was that Lancaster had experienced the happiness and beauty of the family, so his relationship was biased towards his mother. He could not accept such facts, so his relationship with his father was in a stalemate; but Hugo's thoughts were relatively independent, and he could look at this matter more calmly.

"Is this really the case? Dad." Hugo frowned. He could sense the inexplicable loophole behind Adam's hoarseness. But Hugo couldn't tell the reason. He only knew that if it was really what Adam said, then why did he never receive contact from Lena in the past year?

Hugo is not an unknown ordinary person. He is an actor active on the big screen. What's more, he also starred in the "Oprah Talk Show", a highly popular show among middle-aged women. It is not difficult for Lina to find Hugo.

Of course, there may be other unknown inside stories here, but Hugo feels that it is definitely not as simple as Adam said.

"I told you, that's it!" Adam said irritably, obviously not going to continue on this topic, "So what exactly are you calling me? If it's for those disgusting remarks in the newspapers and wanting to cry for me, you obviously have found the wrong partner! All of this is your own, either you leave the dirty circle and find a stable job; or you have to raise your head and stand up and face it all by yourself!"

Adam's sarcastic words made Hugo's anger inexplicably. It seemed that the conversation between the father and son was always like this. Every time Hugo wanted to talk calmly, it ended in an quarrel. Hugo did not speak at the first time, but closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down. However, when he heard Adam's sarcastic words, Hugo found it difficult to calm down.

Perhaps, people are like this, showing their truest side to their closest people. It is precisely because both parties are father-son that they show their worst side, and those who can hurt themselves will always be the ones they care about.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I will deal with these things myself!" Hugo said in a suppressed anger.

"Preferably!" Adam said aggressively, "Don't let me see the news that you are surrounded by those reporters again. It's too embarrassing. I don't want to admit that you are my child!"

"Then don't!" Hugo's words blurted out, but obviously Adam was better than Hugo, so he hung up the phone first. Hugo was facing a series of busy phone calls, "Grass!" This was Hugo's first reaction.
