1853 Chapter 1853 Forgive Yourself

Leonardo took the peanut butter bottle and walked into the hall, and took a serious look at James in front of him. Those eyes that seemed to be able to see through were penetrating James' skin and looking at his soul. This made James a little uneasy, and even suspected that Leonardo would suddenly explode in the next second and punch him.

However, Leonardo didn't, he just nodded to James, then turned and walked up the stairs. Leaving James sitting alone in the lobby, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles, at this moment he finally felt the consequences of his reckless decision, and even James himself began to think, "Why did I decide to come to Malibu in the first place?"

When Leonardo came to the second floor, he didn't see Hugo, so he had to raise his voice and shout, "Hugo? Hugo?" Then there was a shout from upstairs, "I'm on the third floor" , Leonardo trotted all the way up to the third floor, and then saw Hugo sitting on a deck chair on the balcony and flipping through the script.

Hugo's expression was very normal, without any special emotion, which made Leonardo stunned, "So, what are you doing?"

Hugo held up the script in his hand, "After studying the script, I found some problems, and I need to clarify my thinking." After speaking, Hugo pursed his lips and smiled, as if he was not affected by James downstairs at all.

Leonardo sat down beside Hugo, held up the peanut butter in his hand, and asked Hugo if he wanted it, Hugo shook his head, so Leonardo put another tablespoon into his mouth, and licked it carefully After licking it, it was as if a five-year-old child was stealing peanut butter behind his mother's back, which made Hugo laugh, "Let Zamora cook you some food, and you still have money for a meal at home."

Leonardo also laughed out loud, and after he finished laughing, he put the spoon in his mouth, secretly looked at Hugo's side face, hesitated again and again, and said, "So, the one downstairs What are you going to do, kid?"

"It's not my child, what do you mean?" Hugo twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly, "He can go wherever he comes, he is not my responsibility."

Leonardo sighed softly, "Hugo, don't you realize? Although you have always said that you don't care, you have always emphasized that Lena's life has nothing to do with you, but in fact, you still care. You The knot in your heart has not been opened at all, so you have no way to deal with all this correctly."

Hugo didn't speak, but just raised his head and glanced at Leonardo. Leonardo saw the wound in those amber eyes, the pain and torment of slowly tearing the scar apart, which made Leonardo feel a little unbearable, and he even avoided his sight involuntarily, but He still gritted his teeth and insisted, "It's like Uma, your attitude towards her is normal, because you know she's just a stranger, she can't hurt you, so you are very calm. But, This is not the case for Lena, you are still afraid of opening the wound, so you are avoiding it."

Hugo opened his mouth, but found that he had no way to refute. Hugo looked down at the script in a panic, "I... I need to concentrate on reading this script, other questions... are not important for now..."

But having said that, Hugo found that he couldn't focus his eyes on the typeface in front of him at all, and the pile of fonts became a mess, leaving only a black ball, "Hugo, you should know that if you Want to punish or get revenge, it's not difficult, but you don't, why? Because deep down in your heart, you also know that her choices hurt you, but she has nothing to do with you now, you have your life , she has her life, and none of you should continue to torture yourself over a choice you made in the past. You said so, but you didn't do it."

"Leave the past in the past", everyone knows this truth, and Hugo convinced himself in the same way, but it is too difficult to really do it.

When he met Lena at Universal Studios last year, he was like a coward and hid hastily, but it was Charlize who helped him stop Lena's pace. Why? Why didn't he dare to face Lina? Why can't he directly question Lina directly? Because in the depths of his heart, he still couldn't let go, he still couldn't forgive, but he couldn't take revenge, so he cowardly hid.

It's ridiculous.

"Leo, so, should I forgive her?" Hugo's voice was like a puff of smoke that could be blown away by a breeze, and the scars in his heart were finally completely torn open. That pink flesh. I thought it would be extremely painful, but because it was too numb, I couldn't feel the pain.

Leonardo exhaled lightly, "Do you want me to be a friend, or an objective third party?" This made Hugo twitch the corners of his mouth, but it was not a smile, Leonardo continued To, "I think, you don't forgive her, but stop torturing yourself. You don't need her love to prove your existence, because you have Adam, and it is her loss to miss you; you don't need her confession to prove your existence." Prove your success, because she chose to leave, and all the consequences now should be borne by yourself; you don't need her pain to prove your happiness, because in the twenty years without her, you already have own life."

Leonardo said calmly, but Hugo gradually became silent with each word. The transparent light penetrated through layers of armor and sprinkled on every dark corner of Hugo's heart, driving away the evil spirits bit by bit. The smog warmed the cold blood. "Forgiveness is actually a forgiveness for yourself."

Hugo sat quietly on the spot. He thought of Adam's advice to himself. In fact, every time Adam persuaded himself to let go, not because Adam had chosen to forgive, nor because Adam understood Lena's choice, but because Adam Don't want yourself to suffer. Although Adam is so dull and never knows how to express, deep down in his heart, he cares about only one, and it will always be his child. Not the woman who was gone, or the new family in a strange place, but his child.

In fact, after hearing James' description just now, he originally thought that he would be happier and relieved when he heard about the disaster of Franco's family. But this is not the case, because Hugo knew that the breaking of the peaceful life of the Franco family would not be able to restore those pasts, and Lena's pain and regret would only become the shackles of life. Painfully, he doesn't feel like it's the right thing to do.

So, does this mean that he, too, is destroying that family's happiness with his own hands?

"Hugo, do you remember? You told me before that when we are young, we always make mistakes, make bad choices, and then spend our lives making up for those mistakes. Youth is not an excuse to explain those mistakes , but it is a necessary stage in life, and no one can skip it.”

Leonardo's words made Hugo chuckle, he turned his head and looked over, and seriously looked at the immature young man in front of him. His blonde hair was shining brightly in the sun, and the corner of Hugo's mouth curled slightly, A smile appeared, "Leo, why don't I know, when did you know so much truth?"

Leonardo scooped up a spoonful of peanut butter, put it in his mouth, then shook his head, "You told me all these things, remember?" Leonardo raised his eyes and looked at Yu without dodging With those amber eyes, "Hugo, you taught me all these principles."

The smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth slowly subsided, but he didn't speak again.

Leonardo didn't speak anymore, just sat quietly beside Hugo, but the spoon in his hand kept going back and forth between the peanut butter and his mouth, and he even licked the spoon repeatedly, Enjoy the happiness brought by sugar carefully. The sound of smashing, smashing, bouncing lightly in the air, Hugo couldn't help showing a helpless expression, "Hey, do you have to eat so loudly?"

Turning his head, Hugo saw Leonardo's innocent expression, he shook his head helplessly, snatched the spoon from Leonardo's hand, and took the peanut butter, "Didn't you say Why don’t you eat it! How about it, you still can’t bear the temptation?” Leonardo sat beside him and said triumphantly.

Hugo rolled his eyes at Leonardo, "Shut up, this is my peanut butter."

"Hey! This is my home too!" Leonardo muttered and complained, but then he showed a flattering smile, "I have something to discuss with you, my apartment needs to be repainted, can I live here?"

"How long?" Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Leon Ando who looked like a husky, he couldn't help feeling a little funny. Leonardo raised his right index finger, "A week?"

Leonardo shook his head, "No, one month."

"One month? Your apartment is going to be redecorated!" Hugo said speechlessly, but Leonardo's eyes widened with a begging expression on his face. Hugo pointed in the direction of the study, "You go Bring me my guitar."

Leonardo immediately stood up, saluted nondescriptly, "Yes, sir!" Then he ran barefoot all the way into the study, took out the acoustic guitar that Hugo often used and handed it to Yu Guo said, "Sir! What else can I order?"

Hugo handed the peanut butter to Leonardo again, "Shut up, sit by the side and wait obediently." As a result, Leonardo stood at attention and saluted again, then took the peanut butter respectfully, and squatted beside him, "Sir , you want to create a melody?" Hugo stared at it with a glance, and then Leonardo obediently raised his right hand, made a zip gesture on his mouth, and sat quietly beside him, with a peaceful and beautiful expression on his face. The appearance made Hugo hold back his smile with difficulty.
