As Charlotte leave the both of them, Sheila could not help but ask the question that was bugging her mind.
"Why is Miss Charlotte here?" She asked, knowing how unlikely it was.
Hugo shrugged his shoulder. "She was just passing by here when she saw me. She asked why I'm here and I said I accompanied your brother," he simply responded.
He was sure that Sheila will get weirded out if he say that Charlotte just suddenly tapped his back and then they had a conversation after that.
That doesn't sound like a normal teacher-student relationship if you would see it on the other side.
"Ah, that makes sense." Sheila nodded, believing Hugo's words. It was not like Hugo will lie to her about it. And she has seen how Hugo looked at Ms. Charlotte.
It was not the same as how her other guy classmates looked at Charlotte. All the students knew that Charlotte's age was just years away from them.
So if you would think it logically, it wouldn't be wrong if they will date the woman. Although it wasn't allowed for teachers to have a romantic relationship with their students.
However, that's already better, unlike having a relationship with a minor. In that way, the FBI won't be coming to knock on your door!
Well, age is just a number, and jail is just a room.
Jail is basically a free house. People can eat and sleep there for free.
'That's actually not that bad…' Hugo thought after thinking of the advantages if ever. However, he quickly shook his head to disregard it. 'Think straight, Hugo.' He reminded himself.
But, he should probably look for one loli in this lifetime. He already wasted his life in the past.
'A loli in my harem must be nice…' The corner of his lips rose up, thinking about it.
"Are you listening to me, Hugo?"
"Ah, of course!" Hugo abruptly answered as he scratched the back of his head. He smiled and patted Sheila's back. "We should go now. An hour had passed already. The meeting of your brother must be done."
"That's what I was telling to you…"
"See? I told you, I'm listening to your words." Hugo's smile became wider. His feet started to walk, leaving Sheila with no choice but to follow.
Hugo was quiet the whole time. He received a message from Abigail.
[Abigail: Is it still not done?]
[No.]
He replied back before placing it back in his pocket. Earlier, after Noah visited Julius' office, it didn't take a few minutes before Julius dismissed him.
Because of that, he didn't know what to do. After a few hours, Jarrick messaged him asking if he could accompany him to the Academia. Since he does not have anything to do, then he just agreed to it.
At the same time, Abigail messaged him that they should meet too, regarding the content of the voice recording that he forgot to tell her about.
It slipped on Hugo's mind since he had to do a lot these past 2 days. Dealing with Julius was already tiring enough for him. He had to fake his smile and pretended that he very much like him when it was all the opposite.
Well, it brought him a lot of good things. With the number of evidence, he successfully obtained. And, of course, the money that he got from Julius.
Recalling that, he forgot to look for Fernan. He hadn't seen that man in Julius' office after he went there.
'Is he dead already?' He asked in his mind.
When they arrived at the open field, Hugo could see Jarrick waving energetically in their direction.
"Hugo! Sheila!" Jarrick ran the distance between him and them.
"Hey,' Hugo calmly answered.
"Where did the both of you go, huh?" Jarrick teasingly wiggled his eyebrows. He gave a smug look to Hugo before jokingly punching him in the stomach.
"Do you plan to take my sister away from me?" He jokingly exclaimed followed by a laugh
.
Hugo tilted his head. "You fool. Anyway, what is the meeting all about?" His brows shot up.
A loud sigh escaped from Jarrick's lips. "Well, since you are the one participating in Lunaria's feast, you don't have to do anything. But for us students, we need to do something," he responded without leaving any information to Hugo.
"And what is it?" Hugo's forehead creased when Jarrick looked as if he was very problematic.
"We are not allowed to say it to you. But I heard Headmaster Leon will personally say it to you next week. Just wait for it, alright?" He grinned before turning his head to Sheila.
"And you, my dear little sister, why are you not answering my messages?" He asked, as if he was implying something.
"My phone is in silent mode." Sheila rolled her eyes. She placed both of her arms together on her chest. "You told me that the meeting will just going to be short that's why I agreed to come with you!
Remembering it, Sheila glared at his brother. She brought her hands to Jarrick's head, lightly hitting it. "You even told me that it would only take less than 30 minutes."
Jarrick laughed out loud after hearing what Sheila complained about. He did really say that it wouldn't take long. But that was all part of his plan, since he knew that she had a crush on Hugo.
And he will be the cupid between them!
Hugo was a great man after all. He was sure that his niece and nephews will look good if ever.
"What are you thinking?" Sheila doubtedly eyed Jarrick when she saw his grin getting wider.
"Nothing?" Jarrick innocently stated. He looked at Hugo, who was just watching him and his sister bickering with each other.
"I thought you and Abigail will MEET?" he asked, emphasizing the word 'Meet' so his sister can hear it louder.
"Yeah. I shall get going now." Hugo bid his goodbye to both of them.
When Jarrick made sure that Hugo was already far away from their place, he placed his arms around his sister's shoulder.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you jealous of Abigail?" He teasingly asked when he saw how Sheila's face turned sour seeing Hugo, walking away from them.
