72_72291Charlize looked at Hugo hiding behind the spruce, looked ahead in confusion, and then saw the Franco family, the happy Franco family.

Douglas and Lena each held Dave's two hands and raised them high, little Dave's feet dangling on the swing, the bright laughter continued to echo under the clear sky, Tom held a camera in his hand, and recorded the picture of his family laughing while backing up.

They didn't notice Charlize, and they didn't notice Hugo. The road was actually on the road to Universal Studios' restaurant hangout, and it was lunchtime, and the crowds were walking on this road, and the Franco family was just a few of them. Stories of misfortune vary, but stories of happiness are incomparably closer.

Originally, no one would have paid any special attention to the Franco family, but Charlize's gaze would involuntarily see them, and he almost couldn't help but cast his gaze. Should this be called fate? Or it should be called a bond more accurately.

Charlize glanced back at Hugo, who was less than three paces away from her right hand, leaning closely behind the spruce, and Charlize noticed that Hugo's hands were once again clenched into fists, and he was doing his best to suppress the turmoil in his heart. Such a Hugo made Charlize feel distressed for a while.

Suddenly, Charlize remembered that if she remembered correctly, Hugo and Lena hadn't met today, and they hadn't seen before, so ...... They just haven't seen each other for twenty years. At this moment, Hugo chose to avoid it, even if the Franco family didn't notice him and Charlize at all, Hugo also chose to avoid it, he didn't want to see Lena, even if it was just to look at it from afar, he refused.

The clenched fist clearly shows Hugo's inner turmoil and rushing at this time, and Hugo is also struggling. No one could understand Hugo's entanglement at this time, but Charlize couldn't suppress the sourness in his heart just by standing by and looking at it, and the mixed tastes couldn't be explained at all.

Charlize glanced at the Franco family again, and the happy smiles on their faces were so dazzling that they couldn't bear to look at them directly. Charlize suddenly noticed that little Dave was looking over, and she subconsciously wanted to avoid the side to prevent them from seeing it, so as to avoid direct contact, but her pace was still a beat slower, and little Dave had already shouted loudly, "It's the beautiful girl just now." ”

The childish voice was a little sharp in the noise of the crowd, and the Franco family suddenly noticed Charlize standing in the open space next to him.

The smile on Lena's face immediately stiffened, she didn't know what had just happened, she didn't know that Little Dave had been lost once, and she didn't know that Little Dave had broken his knee. This morning, Lena seemed a little uneasy, it was Dave's birthday, but she disappeared most of the time, saying that she went to the bathroom, and disappeared for a long time.

Luckily, Douglas didn't want his wife to worry, and Tom didn't want his mother to blame, so he didn't tell Dave about it; Obviously, Lina's actions just now were all hidden from her family, and she did not tell her husband that she had visited Charlize in private.

Now, being directly called by Little Dave, the expressions of Franco's family are a little weird. In the end, Douglas simply said, "Dave and I were separated just now, and it was Ms. Theron who contacted the security guard and let me find Dave." As he spoke, Dave broke free of his parents' hands and ran in the direction of Charlize.

Normally, Lena would have to panic, lest Dave be injured, but today Lena seemed absent-minded, only slightly surprised, and then nodded again and again and said, "It's okay." Although Douglas was a little strange, he also thought that it was because his wife had saved face for himself in front of outsiders at this time, so he didn't dig deeper.

The two didn't continue to communicate, and chased after Dave, and Tom had already grabbed Dave's collar half a beat in advance and walked over together.

Douglas took the initiative to introduce Lena and Tom to Charlize, Charlize's eyes flashed slightly, and found that Lena was avoiding his gaze, and did not mention her intention to ask Hugo about it just now, which made Charlize's eyes quickly flash a trace of mockery. Hearing Douglas asking her, "What are you doing here," Charlize withdrew his gaze and smiled, "Oh, you need a little fresh air during your lunch break, so come here and take a break." ”

Douglas repeatedly thanked Charlize, Lena noticed that Charlize didn't seem to recognize her at all, and felt relieved - after all, a star like Charlize should see countless fans every day, Lena also smiled and expressed her gratitude, "Dave always stumbles, Doug and I are not less worried about him, I came to play at Universal Studios today, I expected this scene before leaving, and I also joked that I had to tie him around Doug's waist with a dog leash, Otherwise, I'm sure I'll get lost, and it seems that I'm still very wise. ”

Lena said with a smile on her face, and rubbed Dave's little head vigorously with her head, and she could clearly hear the doting in her words. Dave wriggled and escaped Lena's palm, muttering frustratedly, "Mom! I'm not a kid, I'm twelve! This complaining remark had a bit of a coquettish flavor, which made Tom, who was standing on the side, laugh.

"I'm sorry we disturbed your rest, I hope your work today is smooth." Douglas seemed to sense the tiredness between Charlize's eyebrows, took the initiative to say politely, and then expressed his gratitude to Charlize again, and then turned away with his family.

Charlize watched as Lena bent down and imprinted a kiss on Dave's cheek, which made her can't help but avoid her gaze, otherwise she wouldn't know what she would say. But when he turned around, he found that Lena had actually walked over again, and Douglas had stopped in the distance with his two children, still with a smile on his face.

Lena walked up to Charlize and hesitated, "Hey, I don't know if you remember me......"

Charlize nodded, and replied with some impatience, "Yes, I remember you, Lena Franco, it's just that I didn't think of you, you're Dave's mother." ”

Lena actually wanted to ask about Hugo, she had been tossing and turning all morning, but she still couldn't put it down, because she knew that Hugo was close at hand, as if it was just a step away from being able to come into contact head-on. But Lena didn't know what to do with it, she wasn't sure what to say in front of Hugo, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart—what was expected or trying to make up for something, or something else, so she could only hope that Guò Charlize would know something, even if it was just a few words.

Hearing Charlize's answer, Lena couldn't help but be stunned, Charlize actually remembered herself, she stopped thinking about what she had been thinking, and looked back at her husband and children standing in the distance, "So ...... just now" Why did Charlize pretend to see her for the first time just now?

"Because I know you're Hugo's...... Uh, Mother. Charlize closed her eyes so tightly that she didn't even have to turn her head to feel Hugo's gaze fall on her shoulder, the weight of which made her barely breathe.

"Oh......" Lina's expression suddenly stiffened at the words, and then nodded her chin slightly, "Oh, you know ......" The voice gradually disappeared into her throat. Lena only felt an itch in her throat, and the irrepressible urge to cough made her want to vomit, "Uh, so, you...... You know him, you're his friend......"

"I was one of his best friends, and we used to be roommates." Charlize said crisply, Lena was stunned, "Oh, wow", the short exclamation was gone, Charlize looked at Lena quietly, and the calm eyes clearly told Lina: I know all the truth.

"So, you know...... I...... Then ......" Lina's words always had only one beginning, and the rest of the words disappeared, and she pointed to herself, then looked back at the Franco family who were playing in the distance. Charlize nodded, "Yes." ”

Such a simple and neat answer was stiff and detached, causing Lena to cover her chest and sigh in a low voice, "Oh. The next note is completely lost in the throat. So, uh, you're familiar with him? Lena could only say some nonsense over and over again.

Charlize sighed lightly, "If you're trying to ask, do I know what's going on, then my answer is, yes, I know what's going on, all of them." Except, of course, the part you don't want Hugo and Adam to know. ”

Charlize's words made Lena's face turn extremely pale in an instant, and she muttered in a low voice, the name "Adam ......" seemed so strange in her life, but yet so familiar.

Charlize glanced at Hugo, who was standing nearby, and she knew that although Hugo still couldn't see Lena, she could hear all of Lena's words clearly. Hugo parted his cheeks at this time, leaving only the back of his head facing Charlize, and his faintly exposed chin was tightly straightened, still trembling slightly, and he could feel the turbulence in his heart. This worries Charlize immensely, and she fears that Hugo will completely collapse in the next second.

"I don't know exactly what you're trying to say, but I know Dave wouldn't want to know that, and neither would Douglas." Charlize didn't vent his anger to the fullest, but calmly stated the facts—real and brutal facts—which made Lena glance back at her family in the distance, and the big smile on Dave's face stung Lena.

Charlize waved at Dave, a smile, but cold words, "That's your family, Hugo isn't." ”。
