Protecting His Woman

Hugo was hesitant to accept the Card in his hands. He glanced at Lilianne, who keeps insisting that he should accept it.

"I told you, I can't accept this." He tilted his head to the side, placing the card back on the table.

Lilianne's expression changed. "You don't need to use that card. I just want you to have it in case of any emergencies." She explained.

'Does Hugo think it's too much?' She sighed. 'But I really prepared for this…'

Hugo saw that sadness flickered in Lilianne's eyes. He shrugged his shoulders and took it. "Alright," he grinned.

'I can just teleport to her room and give this back.' His grin became wider.

He took out his wallet from his pocket and hid the card in there. "Thanks for this."

Lilianne's eyes twinkled. "You really accepted it? Thank you!" She happily exclaimed.

Hugo nodded. Jake arrived with a tray in his hand. He placed their orders on the table before taking a bow.

"Enjoy your meal, Ma'am and Sir."
