Standing in front of Hugo was James Franko.

Hugo was very surprised to see James in Houston. In fact, when he was performing in San Francisco, Hugo saw James in the crowd. At that time, the crowd was surging, and everyone rushed towards the band members who had left the venue. Hugo and others were busy squeezing out. At this moment, Hugo glanced at James, because James was like a stone pillar in the crowd, which was very conspicuous.

Hugo's gaze touched James in the air. James' eyes were quite strange, with a hint of surprise in excitement, and a little look in anticipation, as if he could see a flower on him. But before Hugo could react, James suddenly turned around and left, which made Hugo feel like a durian again.

After San Francisco, Hugo never saw James again, which is not surprising, because the performances in every city are surrounded by countless fans, and it is not so easy to meet a specific person. Even Cameron and Sally often appear faces, which are not seen in a certain city on a certain day, is normal.

Unexpectedly, he met again in Houston today; what was even more strange was that James actually asked to talk to him alone, which was beyond Hugo's imagination: to be honest, he still didn't know whether James liked him or hated him, or liked his music or movies, which directly led to the image of durian constantly flashing in Hugo's mind.

"So, how about it?" Hugo smiled and greeted Cameron after watching him leave.

But James avoided Hugo's eyes. When he asked to talk to Hugo alone, he had the courage to burn his boats. The unwavering look made Hugo feel a little puzzled, and at the same time, Cameron left on his own initiative, which was considered to be a satisfaction of James' request. But now, James seemed to be suddenly deflated and began to dodge between his eyes.

"I followed all the way from San Francisco." James finally spoke, but the topic seemed a little weird: Why do you have to talk about such a topic alone, and why do you avoid Cameron?

Hugo was stunned, but he nodded and said politely, "That's great. I hope you enjoy the performance along the way."

"Yes, the band's performance is indeed very exciting." James said blankly. He scratched his head nervously, his eyes floating towards Hugo, but as soon as he touched Hugo's sight, he immediately avoided it in panic.

James' appearance made Hugo's mind two thoughts come to mind. The first one was a terrorist, and the second one was a flesh and blood. But now, both ideas are not reliable. Hugo couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth because of the funny thoughts in his head. He chuckled and said, "James, sixty seconds." After that, he pointed to his wrist without a watch, indicating that he had only requested a private conversation for one minute just now.

James was also a little embarrassed when he looked at Hugo's expression. He lowered his head and did not speak, his face and eyes were hard to see clearly.

Hugo is really puzzled. James Franco has performed so strangely several times. Is he really the James Franco who appears on the big screen in the future? Or is it someone who is just a duplicate name and looks like a little bit? Although this coincidence is slim,... this seems to be the only explanation, isn't it?

It was clearly James who asked for a private conversation but did not say anything useful. Hugo was not surprised. He had met such fans before, just hoping to get along with the band members more. Although this partner was James, it made the situation look weirder, but nothing to be surprised.

Hugo patted James on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Tick, time is about to end. I think we'll talk next time." After that, Hugo was about to take a step and leave.

But at this moment, James suddenly raised his head and looked at Hugo. His indomitable courage made Hugo's footsteps that had just been raised slow down. Then Hugo saw James gritting his teeth hard, and his eyes looked straight at him without any evasion. The terrifying look seemed to see clearly every change in the emotional changes in Hugo's pupils, "Lina, my mother's name is Lina."

Hugo's originally put down stopped, Lina? This name sounds very familiar, but the question is, what does James' mother have to do with him? He looked at James who seemed to be about to pounce on him, and his eyebrows were raised slightly unconsciously.

James stared at Hugo tightly, and he quickly noticed the confusion in Hugo's expression. At this time, the feeling of burning boats invaded again. James spoke without waiting for Hugo to react further, "My mother's original name was Lena Brody..."

James said word by word, Hugo's eyebrows couldn't help but move slightly closer to the middle. This name sounded very familiar, and then James' next sentence revealed all the answers, "After she got married, she changed her name to Lena Lancaster."

boom!

In an instant, Hugo understood what a bolt from the blue meant. His handsome eyebrows moved closer to the middle, but before he could get together, he immediately stretched out and clearly showed his shock. All emotions in the amber eyes disappeared without a trace, leaving only a trace of shock. Then Hugo saw James' deep eyes staring at him full of countless exploratory desires, as if he was going to penetrate his heart and his soul. He hung his eyes in a hurry and covered all the emotions in his eyes with his eyelashes.

"Now, her name is Lena Franco." James finished all the rest of his words, but it caused a storm in Hugo's heart.

In fact, it was not just Hugo. James's mess and nervousness at this moment were no less than Hugo. He looked at Hugo with dignity and tried to find some clues of real emotions in Hugo's eyes covered by fog. However, Hugo's eyes were like the rainy sky in Seattle, and were always covered with a layer of fog, which made him unable to explore.

Lina finally got news. It has been two and a half years since the Golden Raspberry Awards; if calculated based on Lancaster's time, it has been eighteen years. The mother, who was always covered with a veil, finally showed the tip of the iceberg, but unexpectedly, it was in this form.

This is ironic, isn't it? It's not the appearance of Lina herself, but the news brought by the seemingly underage boy in front of her.

Hugo's mind was a little confused because he did not expect to hear about his mother under such circumstances, but he forced all his thoughts to suppress him, then pulled the corners of his mouth slightly at James in front of him, and said politely, "Is that true? This is really a good story. Please say hello to your mother on my behalf." Hugo seemed to have nothing happened. This was just an ordinary fan telling him the story of his mother, so Hugo said hello politely, everything was so ordinary and ordinary, nothing special.

After saying that, Hugo took another step and walked straight forward without asking, discussing, questioning, or even staying. Hugo had no intention of pursuing the truth: Is Lena as James said his mother? If so, then what happened to Lena over the years? Why did Lena never contact herself? What's going on now?

At this moment, Hugo doesn't want to know or discuss it, at least not now.

Hugo could deeply feel that a part of his soul began to surging, which made his eyes a little hot, and the feeling of entanglement and tearing deep in his heart made his breathing a little rapid. He knew that this was the part of Lancaster, but he tried hard to suppress this feeling and maintain the calm on the surface. His eyebrows, which were slightly frowning again, revealed his true emotions at the moment.

Before, Hugo had always told herself that Lina had never thought about contacting herself. There were all kinds of possibilities, maybe she had passed away, maybe she had no choice but to have no choice, maybe she didn't see herself at all, of course, maybe she didn't want to contact herself at all. But no matter which possibility it was, he didn't want to pin his hopes on the mother who had disappeared for eighteen years. Compared to Lina, Adam who stayed with Hugo now is the most important thing, and Adam is his only relative.

Hugo once fantasized about what would he react when the news of Lena really appeared? In Hugo's conception, he imagined countless possibilities, but when the situation actually came, he overturned all Hugo's ideas: he chose to ignore, he chose to ignore, and he chose to escape.

But Hugo really has no way to think about whether his behavior is correct or appropriate. He can only choose to turn around and leave, take steps, take a little bit, and then make a little bit of big stride, just hope that he will not run away like a fool, at least maintain a little bit of demeanor.

"Hugo..." James was also a little at a loss. He finally plucked up the courage to stand in front of Hugo, and even exhausted all his energy to speak out. He even made countless preparations. But when things came to an end, he looked at Hugo's back as he left calmly, but he was confused. He didn't know what to do. His brain that was trapped in the accident had no way to react correctly.

James wanted to catch up, he wanted to continue talking to Hugo, but he found that it was difficult for him to take off, and all his courage seemed to have been exhausted. More importantly, he didn't know what he should say to Hugo, and his head was completely in a mess, so he just chased for two steps, and then stayed in place, watching Hugo gradually move away, and finally disappeared from sight.
