Supreme Master In The Apocalypse

Hugo immediately went away from Lilith's body after a few seconds. He wiped the sides of his lips when he felt that it was wet.

Liltih's face reddened. She turned her head to the side, to avoid his stares.

"T-This is wrong…" her voice stuttered. She quickly recollected her thoughts and ran away as she felt that it was the only right thing to do.

Hugo was left alone. He scoffed as he unbelievably looked at the door that Lilith used to exit.

'Is she shy?' he chuckled. He shrugged his shoulders and opened the faucet to wash his hands.

"Well, it seems like these fruits are needed." Tilting his head to the side, he had decided to continue what Lilith was doing earlier.

'It's not like it was our first time kissing,' the corners of his lips stretched to the side as he remembered all the things that they had done in his previous life.

'It's a pity that she doesn't know that yet.' He sighed in disappointment.

When he was done washing all the fruits, he placed them on the plate that was on the side. He carried them as he went back to the dining room. In there he saw Lilianne, who looked very busy as she was arranging some flowers in the vase.

It all makes sense for Hugo now as he saw that both Lilith and Lilianne have similar outfits. And just by looking at how it was designed, it for sure was an idea coming from Lilianne.

Hugo looked around to see if there were people around them, when he saw none he didn't hesitate to call out her name,

"Lilianne."

He placed the plate down on the table before he went closer to her. He grabbed her by her waist, leaning against her until their nose barely touched each other.

"Is this your plan all along?" he whispered right on her face.

Lilianne grinned. "Did you like it?" she breathed out. She closed her eyes to give Hugo a light peck on his lips.

"Hmm…" Hugo didn't answer it directly. He adjusted the way he stood up, leaving Lilianne hanging. "I will go to the living room. Just call us if the food is ready already," he uttered.

Lilianne nodded. She was actually watching what happened earlier. She couldn't help but be hot as she remembered it.

'This is wrong…' she tried to remind herself. But because she knew that Lilith has a liking for Hugo, she felt that pushing them was just okay.

'I wonder what Lilith is doing now,' taking a step forward, she tried to look upstairs to see if her daughter was there.

'I should probably check on her to see what is the result.'

Unknown to Hugo, she was the one who made Lilith go to the kitchen. Since Hugo didn't know that they have the same outfit, then there will be a possibility that he would mistake her for Lilith.

Fortunately, her plan did work.

Going out of the dining room, Lilianne went closer to Loreen, who was attentively listening at her.

"Tell my mother to go home already, since we have an important guest." She ordered around which Loreen gladly obliged

"Give Hugo some refreshments too and tell the other maids to prepare the dining table already." She added in.

She was just waiting for Marie to finally arrive so all of them could eat together. She knew that if ever Marie saw Hugo, then her mood will instantly lighten up.

"Yes, Madam." Loreen excused herself so she could do all of it.

Lilianne went upstairs and entered Lilith's room directly. In there, she saw Lilith jumping out of happiness.

"Mother, you shocked me!" Lilith loudly exclaimed after hearing that her door opened. The smile on her face wouldn't die down even though the kiss was already a few minutes ago.

"What happened?" Lilianne acted as if she was clueless. She sat on Lilith's bed, the string at her.

"It's just that… I and Hugo have shared a kiss already!" Lilith chuckled. "Can you believe that, Mother?" Everything feels surreal for Lilith.

"That's a good thing then." Lilianne does not know what to answer.

"Maybe he found my clothes too revealing, that's why." Lilith grinned as she looked at the piece of dress she was wearing. "You really know how to choose for me, Mother."

"Of course. Now go and fix yourself, since your grandmother will be coming in a short while. You don't want her knowing about what happened, right?"

As if it was horror, Lilith instantly nodded as she fixes the way she smile. "I will go down, Mother. Let me just take some time." She pleaded.

Lilianne nodded. She came down the stairs and when she entered the dining room, it was already fixed with plats and cutleries set in an orderly manner.

When the doorbell rang for the second time, Lilianne went to Hugo's direction.

"My mother is here. Do you want to welcome her as she enters?" She smiled.

"Sure."

Since Hugo was getting bored already, he just agreed. Standing up, both of them went in front of the door.

When Marie entered, her eyes immediately widened in surprise after seeing who was in front of her.

"Young Man!" She laughed out loud as she pointed to Hugo's body. "I can't believe that you came to visit us!"

Hugo smiled. "Of course, Miss Marie. I am thankful that you trusted me with your granddaughter's studies," he replied.

Marie chuckled. She took a quick glance at Liliane. "Where is Lilith?"

"I am here, grandmother!" Lilith wavered her hands. She was in the staircase when she heard her name being mentioned. "Did you miss me already, grandma?" she joked around as she went closer to them.

"What took you so long? Our guest is waiting already!" She scolded like a strict grandmother.

"Grandma, I have already talked to Hugo earlier. You're the one who is late." She answered back.

"Oh, really?" Marie asked herself, which made everyone laugh.

"I'm sure you are all hungry now. We should go now and eat. I cooked a lot of dishes."

The four of them eat their lunch together. The meal that Lilianne cooked was delicious. When they were taking their desserts, they had a talk to kill the time.

Marie looked very happy. She was in all smiles. After a tiring morning in her ice cream shop, she was really surprised when she saw Hugo in their house.

"Are you feeling well already, young man? I have heard about what happened to you and your sister." She brought the topic up.

Now that Lilianne have remembered it, she looked at Hugo with curiosity in her eyes. "Has the culprit been caught? What did the police tell?" She asked. The interest in her voice was showing.

Hugo shook his head. "I do not know anything." he simply answered. It was already obvious that his hunch was right. Looking at how the authorities weren't making an effort to catch who was the mastermind of all the things that have happened, then that simply means that there was someone with a big name backing them up.

And who would it be besides President Damien, who still hasn't given any statement about what happened.

Yesterday, just like what he expected, the news about the authorities finding the missing children surfaced on the Internet. The people were really thankful for what they did.

The authorities, especially the police, had said they were thank you to the person who tipped off the location.

'I really didn't give any tip-off, but I guess they are still thankful.' Hugo shrugged his shoulders. He finished the cake on his plate.

"I'm already fine, Miss Marie. Thank you for your concern." He answered Marie's question.

Marie nodded. "When I heard the news about it, I really wanted to go and visit you in the hospital, but Lilianne said that we should not trouble your family already." Taking a sigh, "I'm really grateful that you are well already."

"Mother, you know that your age is not that young already. If you just go to the hospital, then what if you catch some disease?" Lilianne's forehead creased.

"I know." Marie leaned against her chair.

"Why is the process taking so long, though? They should have focused on that since that was a hot topic! Even the sellers in the stores nearby my shop was talking about is." Shaking her head, she said she is dismayed over the thing.

She glanced at Hugo. And just like the rest of the grandparents in the world, there was a long session of talk that suddenly came out from Marie.

"You know, Hugo. You are such a great man. At this age, you should find someone with whom you will spend time in the future. Time is just short, so you should spend it wisely." Marie started. It was followed by her stories of how she lived in the past.

Hugo does not know how to respond and how to react. He was just hesitantly smiling and agreeing to whatever Marie was saying.

"So, how about dating my granddaughter? As you can see, she is very kind and a beauty!"
