Chapter 50 First Harem Member
Hugo arrived at Lilith's house. After his birthday yesterday, they invited him to go to their house as a way of thanking him for teaching their daughter.
"This way, Sir," Loreen guided him inside. She was blushing the whole time that she was with him.
"Alright," Hugo asserted. He followed Loreen as they arrived in the dining room.
The atmosphere was different from what he was used to. There were scented lights on the side, while the whole room was dimmer than usual.
"You're here already, young man." Marie slowly walked toward Hugo. She has a walking stick in her hand to help her maintain her balance.
"Mrs. Marie," Hugo lightly smiled at her before his eyes went to Lilianne, who entered with a plate of roasted chicken in her hands. "Mrs. Lilianne."
Lilianne waved her hands at Hugo as she placed the food down on the table. "How are you, Hugo?" She questioned.
"I'm good," he answered simply.
His eyes secretly examined her body. Lilianne was wearing a backless black dress. It fits her body carefully, showing her curves.
Lilith quickly followed them. She entered inside with a wide smile lingering on her face. "You're here already."
Hugo nodded. He took a seat when he saw them sitting down as well.
Hugo cleared his throat as he pulled out an envelope from his pockets. After giving it some time yesterday to think, he realized that it was better for him to really resign.
Now that he's 18, he can already look for a job that was more high paying. Even though he really enjoyed Lilianne's company, he had to do it. It's not like he can't meet her in any other place.
He thought that it was better too, since Lilianne was still his boss.
"I know that you have been good to me, but I plan to resign." Hugo dropped it unexpectedly like a bomb.
Lilianne's jaw fell to the floor. Her face turned pale as she opened her mouth to say something. "W-Why?" her voice stuttered.
'Is it because of me?' She couldn't help but ask herself. She couldn't think of any other reason than what happened between them.
'Did he regret it?'
"Of course not," Hugo answered as he read her thoughts. "I am resigning because I want to look for another job," he answered honestly.
Lilianne was stunned as Hugo answered the question in her head. 'Is my face that readable?' She swallowed dryly as she warily look around.
"B-But…" Lilith silently protested. "What about our bet?"
Hugo scratched the back of his head. The corners of his lips rose up when Lilith reminded him of that. 'Well, I still want to hear Lilith calling me Master.'
"Since we did that at the start, then, of course, we should proceed to do that. Just message me once your report card is out," he declared.
He smirked, knowing that he had already won. He looked at Abigail's activities these past few days and he saw that her scores shot up drastically high.
Lilith took a deep sigh. She slowly nodded her head. "Okay," she breathed out. She couldn't hide the sadness flickering in her eyes, knowing that in the future days she won't be able to see Hugo any longer.
The feeling was the same when their father left them for another woman. She bit her lips and focused on her food, to distract the sadness that she suddenly felt.
"I apologize for the sudden announcement."
Marie shook her head. "Don't apologize, young man. We all know how busy you are, especially since you are in a prestigious university."
Hugo lightly smiled, even though what she said was entirely false. He was not really busy since his power to read the mind of other people and to stop time works like a charm every time.
The only problem so far was that he noticed that he tends to sleep longer whenever he uses his powers too much. It must be his way of regaining his lost energy.
Lilianne stood up. "Excuse me for a moment," she turned her head back and directly went outside to the garden.
She was still shocked about the sudden decision of Hugo to resign. In just a short time, she knows that she had grown feelings for him. After all, she wouldn't agree to have sex with him if she didn't.
"Can I follow Mrs. Lilianne? I think she is quite shocked to hear my sudden announcement." He carefully asked them.
"Go ahead," Lilith agreed. She knows that her mom tends to really get close to other people easily. And knowing that Hugo was just at the same age as her, she must have treated Hugo as her own son already.
Well, that can't be helped since Hugo always visits their house, five to six times every week. And he would usually stay for a few hours.
"Grandma, let's just eat.' She looked at Marie and switched seats to be on her side.
Marie looked at Lilith. 'It's a pity for us. I know that Hugo is a good man.'
Lilith sighed. 'I know grandma…'
"Lilianne," Hugo called out her name as he arrived at the garden.
He saw Lilianne on the side, leaning against a wall. She was looking at the clouds in the sky.
"Why are you here?" Lilianne's brows shot up. She glanced at her side and saw Hugo, who was walking toward her.
"Why are you sulking in the corner?
She rolled her eyes. "Isn't it obvious?"
Hugo chuckled. "You have feelings for me now?" he teasingly uttered. He grabbed Lilianne's waist and pulled her to his body.
"Isn't that obvious?" she whispered in a low voice.
"You know that my husband left me for another woman. I told him that I can get used to it. I wouldn't even stop him! But he just told me that I was getting crazy already…" She raised her head and looked directly into Hugo's eyes.
"I can be your woman, Hugo. Heck, I can even share you with others if you like! I just don't want to be left by you. I just want you to continue seeing me and making me feel like I'm a woman." Lilianne shamelessly confessed.
She had no problem at all if ever Hugo will find another woman beside her. She just wants Hugo to stay and meet her like before. To do all the things that they have done so far.
Hugo caressed Lilianne's back. He slowly drew circles using his finger that sent chills through her body.
He leaned closer to her ears before saying something.
"Do you want to be part of my harem, then?"
