Chapter 1903 Chapter 1903

James and Tobey Maguire rushed in directly. The two of them seemed to be arguing over who could arrive first. Not far behind, Alex and Zamora were talking and laughing. Walking slowly, it doesn't look like you're in a hurry at all.

When James ran to the inner court, he still had a body advantage, but when he looked up, he saw Lena, and Lena appeared in front of him like that, which caught James off guard, and his feet stopped in place , looking at Lena in front of her at a loss, not knowing how to deal with it.

Toby didn't notice such a small detail, he just sprinted forward vigorously by virtue of his inertia, and finally rushed into the hall, immediately raised his hands and cheered with laughter, "Haha, I told you, I already I told you!" When I saw Hugo, I waved my hand to say hello, and then I saw a strange guest, so I immediately put my hands down, looked at Hugo awkwardly, but found Hugo's face There was a playful smile on his face, which made Toby laugh too.

James stood in the courtyard and shouted from a distance, "Why are you here?" He couldn't help but glance at Hugo, but he was a little guilty, so his eyes didn't have time to fall on Hugo's expression , and quickly dodged away.

Lena also turned her head to look at Hugo, but as if she had touched a charcoal fire, she immediately lowered her head and turned to look at James again, "I'm here to see you..." Lena paused , "I rented you a house in the city. If you want to stay here to learn acting, you can live in the city."

"I don't want it!" James refused almost subconsciously, "Why should I live in the city? I live here very well, everything is fine! Before you showed up, everything was fine!"

The words came out impulsively, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hugo standing aside, and James dodged away in embarrassment. He was blaming Lena for her rash appearance, but in fact, why he was able to stay here was not because of Lena? So, when he blamed Lena, wasn't he also blaming himself? This realization made James feel his cheeks burn.

"James!" Lena reprimanded fiercely, but she seemed to lack confidence. Lina knew that she had hurt Hugo severely, and James came to the door like this, which made it even more difficult for Hugo, but in front of James, she did not have the confidence and position, and the quarrel at home was reincarnated again. appeared in Malibu. This embarrasses Lena and makes her more painful.

Hugo looked at the tense atmosphere at the scene, but didn't know whether he should intervene. In the distance, Zamora and Alex stood beside the Black Rock wine cabinet with expressions of astonishment, and Toby stood in the room Even more at a loss, he exhaled lightly, "Everyone, come in first, you need to do sunscreen when you stand outside in the sun, don't you?" This ridicule made Alex who was standing far away couldn't bear it. Stopped, and burst out laughing.

Immediately, Alex realized that his actions were inappropriate, and he waved his hands again and again, "Don't mind me, don't mind me, you continue." Then he and Zamora trotted into the hall with their heads down, one after another After nodding with Lina, he dragged Toby and walked towards the game room.

Being teased like this, James wanted to laugh but couldn't, and wanted to get angry but couldn't get angry. It was really uncomfortable. He could only stick his neck stubbornly and stand outside, motionless.

Hugo looked at James who was like a child, and laughed dumbfoundedly, "The second invitation means that there is no chance." The joke-like ridicule made James raise his head and squirmed his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end , moved small steps awkwardly, approaching little by little, and finally entered the hall.

Hugo looked around, "I think you need some time alone, James, if necessary, you can take your mother to visit your room. I'm in the game room, call me if you need it."

After finishing speaking, Hugo showed a polite smile to Lena, and walked towards the game room, "Hugo." Lena's voice stopped Hugo's footsteps, and Lena watched seriously The indifference and calmness in the amber eyes of the man in front of her made her retreat steadily, and she finally opened her mouth, but still said nothing.

Hugo thought about it. Although he didn't want to take care of Franco's family affairs, he was already involved anyway and took James in. Therefore, in terms of responsibility, even if he wanted to shirk, he had no choice. Thinking of this, Hugo couldn't help but look at James, the corners of his mouth drew an arc, and he shook his head lightly. Maybe a long time ago, when James appeared in front of him like a durian, today's situation was already doomed.

With a long sigh of relief, "Lena, you are a good mother, you have always been, you should not give up easily after protecting Franco for so long." After speaking, Hugo looked at James again, James was full of helplessness and The guilty gaze just looked at Hugo like this, and he could vaguely see the bright eyes, "Your eyes are very similar to Lena." The smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth paused, and then Hugo turned and entered the game room. Leave the hall space to these two people.

Lena and James stood awkwardly in the hall like this, at a loss. In the end, Lina took the initiative to say, "I'm sorry..."

James turned his head away stubbornly, "The person you need to say this sentence is not me." It's Hugo.

Lena exhaled lightly, "I know."

After entering the game room, Hugo immediately saw three people peeping at the door. He drove them in with rounded eyes, gritted his teeth tightly, and said in a low voice, "It's okay for a mother to come to visit her son." Gossip, what are you doing?"

"That's James' mother?" Alex said in surprise, and then looked at Toby and Zamora, "Isn't that..." But he couldn't say any more.

But Hugo smiled indifferently, "Yes, she is also my mother." In fact, everyone knows this matter more or less, and Hugo has always been calm.

Seeing Hugo's calmness, everyone became so nervous and anxious, but became embarrassed. In the end, Zamora mustered up the courage to say, "So, are you really okay?"

Hugo shrugged, "Yes, I'm fine." Apart from missing Adam a little bit, everything was fine, he was really completely fine. Looking at the three worried faces in front of him, Hugo patted their shoulders, "Why, come into the game room, don't you plan to play games anymore? Do you want to see how good I am today?"

"Cut, it's just your bad level..." Alex immediately activated the taunting skill, Zamora repeatedly echoed, and even the honest Toby nodded seriously, "You are the one at the bottom." Hugo clenched his fists fiercely, "It's nothing to say what you say, but it depends on your real skills!"

A group of people flocked to the game console and began to compete, and even compared hammer, paper, scissors for who would play first. Therefore, men are like children most of the time, even after they get married and start a business, even after they become fathers.

After an unknown amount of time, the door of the game room was quietly opened again. James stood quietly at the door. Lena had already left, and he sent her away. James knew that Hugo had forgiven Lena, but rather than forgive, he chose to let go. As Hugo said a long time ago, the Franco family already has their own life, and Hugo and Adam also have their own present and future. And forget about the present.

Hugo doesn't need James' sympathy and guilt, because he didn't "snatch" Hugo's mother and childhood; Hugo doesn't need Lena's memory and care, because Lena has a family to take care of, and Hugo has a father Needing care, they can all be fine on their own.

Before "Hugo" came along, Lena had always been an excellent mother, and James couldn't deny that.

Life is often very ironic. At the beginning, Lena chose to leave, forget, and move on, but Hugo was trapped in the same place, struggling and suffering; now, Hugo chooses to forgive and choose Instead of letting go, she chose to move on, but Lena was re-entangled in the past, unable to extricate herself from regret and self-blame.

Forgiveness and renunciation sound very simple, but only those who have really experienced it know that even if they know that it is correct to do so, they still cannot do it, and even say it in their mouths, but they don't mean it. That was the case with Hugo, and it is the case with Lena and James now.

James knew all those reasons, and he also tried to forgive his mother, stop feeling guilty about Hugo, and give up the stupid idea of ​​making up for Hugo, but... all this is really too difficult. It took all the courage he had accumulated during this period of time to sit down and talk with his mother calmly just now. It is only now that James understands the pain that Hugo endured back then, and he appeared in Hugo without warning at that time. In front of him, it brought a powerful impact to Hugo. Now, Hugo has opened his heart and embraced the present, but he still can't do it.

James wanted to muster up the courage to choose to leave the Malibu villa, start his own life in downtown Los Angeles, and truly abandon the past, but he couldn't do it. He just wanted to stay with Hugo. Be a friend, be an actor... be a brother.

Pushing open the door of the game room, James showed a bright smile and shouted, "You people, you actually abandoned me and started the game directly. I will never let you go." Then James ran over directly, holding his hands On the shoulders of Hugo and Toby, "The next one is me, the next one is me!"

"Who allowed it, I will be next!" Toby yelled.

James looked at Hugo who was standing beside him with a smile on his face, and said softly in his heart: Thank you.
