Supreme Casanova: Ultimate Harem System-Chapter 249 Hope!
Hugo stood awkwardly outside the bathroom, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, staring at the ceiling like it held all the answers to his miserable life choices.
His mind was a chaotic mess of frustration, hope, and utter disbelief.
"I can't believe I'm still standing here… Like some rejected side character in a cheap romance drama. She actually screamed. Who does that?!"
He dragged his hand down his face, groaning internally. 'And yet… here I am. Waiting for the same girl who just tried to blast my eardrums into the afterlife.'
The door finally creaked open. Hugo's eyes shot toward it, half-expecting another ambush scream.
But instead, Loli stepped out quietly, her usual confidence nowhere to be found.
She had a slight gleam of satisfaction on her face, like she'd just scored a personal victory, but Hugo didn't miss the most important detail—her eyes were a little red, just the tiniest bit puffy.
She most probably had been crying!
'Damn… She really took that hard.' The realization hit him like a truck carrying a mountain of guilt. His inner thoughts spiraled into chaos.
'Okay, genius. She's clearly hurt, and it's not because you're just annoying. No, no—she probably thinks this whole mess means something deeper.'
Based on all the clues, he had a slight guess as to why Loli was reacting as she was.
'Maybe she thought… we were already a thing? Oh, hell. Was she already catching feelings like love?!'
But was it so easy to fall in love?
For once, Hugo's usual ridiculous thoughts quieted down, and something serious clicked in his head. 'I need to fix this. Fast.'
But he knew better than to just dive in recklessly—especially not after almost getting arrested for accidental bathroom invasion.
So, this time, he kept his distance. Hands up, voice calm, like he was trying to talk down a very cute, very emotional bomb.
"Loli, wait—please, just hear me out for a second."
Loli's steps slowed, but she didn't turn to face him. Hugo took that as a good sign.
"Look, I know you're mad. I'd be mad too if I thought someone I liked—uh, someone I trusted—did something shady behind my back."
His voice cracked slightly at the word liked, and internally, he slapped himself. 'Smooth, idiot. Real smooth.'
He realized that he might be smooth when it came to impressing a woman, but when it cake to calming and persuading, he was still a noob!
Good thing he had his aura of persuasion!
Hugo instantly activated the Aura. And his words began to spin a tad bit more convincing.
She still didn't respond, but at least she wasn't running away or calling security yet. Progress!
"But I swear—on everything—what you heard from Celine wasn't the truth. Nothing happened between me and her. Nada. Zilch."
He took a small step closer.
"She was just messing with me. You can even ask Collins if you don't believe me. He was there the whole time, and trust me, that guy can't even lie to save himself!."
In his head, Hugo had a wild image of Collins wearing sunglasses, nodding dramatically in slow motion like a loyal action-movie sidekick.
'Yeah, Collins would definitely cover for me. Bros before misunderstandings, right?'
Of course he would. Or he would get strangled midnight by Hugo!
Loli finally turned around, her expression softer than before but still guarded. "Hugo… I don't want to talk right now. Just leave me alone."
The words stung more than they should have. But Hugo didn't let it show on his face.
He saw the hesitation, the little crack in her armor. She wasn't slamming the door completely—just leaving it slightly open.
And that was all he needed!
Just one moreeeeee chancceee!
"Okay, okay. I get it," he said quickly, his hands raised again as if surrendering. "But—just one more thing before I back off. We still have that movie date on Saturday, right?" Your journey continues on novelbuddy
That finally made her blink.
"I mean, unless you'd rather not," Hugo added, trying his best to keep his voice casual.
"But if you let me take you out, I swear I'll use that time to actually apologize—properly. No lame excuses, no weird interruptions. Just me, you, and me trying to fix this mess I made."
There was a tense silence between them. For a moment, Hugo thought she might just walk away and leave him drowning in regret.

To be honest, he wouldn't even be surprised if he did that. But luckily she didn't. But she didn't do anything either!
But then, as she turned to leave, Loli muttered under her breath, "Maybe."
'Maybe?' His brain practically exploded with relief. 'MAYBE? That's not a no! That's a chance!'
As she walked off, Hugo stayed frozen in place, a huge grin stretching across his face like he'd just unlocked a secret level in a game.
His thoughts went into overdrive.
'Okay, okay, we're back in the game! I've got time. Saturday's my shot. I just need to plan the perfect apology… No, screw that—I need a masterpiece. The kind of apology that makes girls write diary entries about how thoughtful I am!'
Could he do it? Maybe?
He wasn't sure because he hadn't done it before!
He started pacing, fists clenched in determination.
'I need flowers. No, too cliché. Chocolate? Maybe, but does she seem like a chocolate-over-movie type? Personalized playlist? Too risky. What if she hates my taste in music?!'
Then it hit him. "Wait. What if I get her favorite snacks for the movie? That's casual but thoughtful. Genius! I'll casually 'just happen' to bring them along like it was no big deal. Smooth, subtle… Hugo, you beautiful mastermind!"
As he marched back toward the table, a new wave of confidence surged through him. For the first time since this disaster started, there was hope.
"Saturday's gonna be perfect. I'll fix everything. And maybe—just maybe—I'll finally stop making enough progress to even hit a home run!"
Was he being crazy?
Yes!
Did he care?
No!
