Supreme Casanova: Ultimate Harem System-Chapter 248 Never Ever!

The group meeting had dragged on forever.

Two full hours of explanations, discussions, and brainstorming—and not one second of progress in Hugo's personal battle.

He had just finished giving his detailed breakdown of their project's next steps, his voice smooth and confident, his ideas solid.

Of course, this was all the thoughts of his trusty AI, but nobody needed to know that.

All they needed to know was that he was a smart, handsome and capable group leader.

And it was working!

Everyone in the group nodded along, even threw in a few "Good point, Hugo" or "Yeah, that makes sense."

Everyone except Loli.

Hugo sat back in his chair with a heavy sigh, resting his elbows on the table. His eyes flickered to Loli like a magnet he couldn't control.

She was scribbling something in her notebook, her face calm and focused, but she hadn't acknowledged him once.

Through this meeting of close to 2 hours, she hadn't even reacted to him!

Not a glance, not a nod, not even the tiniest twitch to show she'd heard him.

'Seriously? Two hours. Two whole hours, and she's still acting like I'm invisible?' Hugo fumed in his mind, fighting the urge to bang his head on the table.

'I tried everything! The little polite 'Are you okay?' The helpful 'Do you need anything?' Even the accidental-on-purpose hand graze when I passed her the papers. Nothing! Not even a side-eye!'

He was coming to realize how cold Loli's could actually be when they got pissed!

To make it worse, he was pretty sure the rest of the group had caught on.

Mia had given him a few too many curious glances.

Erica's smirk was basically glued to her face like she was watching her favorite drama unfold in real-time and she was enjoying every moment of it.

Jenna and Emily? They weren't saying anything, but the way they kept exchanging looks told Hugo everything he needed to know.

It was pretty embarrassing!

'Great, just great. Now everyone knows I'm losing this battle harder than a dude challenging a kangaroo to a boxing match.'

But then—salvation.

Out of the corner of his eye, Hugo saw Loli shift in her seat and casually grab her phone.

She stood up, adjusting her hoodie, and made her way toward the back of the coffee shop.

The bathroom!

Hugo's brain practically short-circuited with excitement. 'Divine opportunity unlocked! Alone time incoming, baby!'

This was his moment. One-on-one, no audience, no awkward group tension—just him, Loli, and the chance to clear the air.

'Okay, okay. Play it cool. Just ask to be excused like a normal person.'

Hugo cleared his throat awkwardly and mumbled, "Uh, hey guys, I'll be right back. Gotta… stretch my legs."

Mia blinked. "We're literally sitting. Why would you need to—"

"Stretch. My. Legs." Hugo repeated, his fake smile practically begging for mercy.

Without waiting for a reply, he shot out of his chair and speed-walked toward the back, his heart thudding in his chest like a drum solo.

He reached the hallway just in time to see Loli pushing the bathroom door open.

"Loli, wait!" His voice came out a little too desperate, and he immediately winced.

But she didn't even flinch. No pause, no acknowledgment, just—door closes.

Hugo stood there, blinking at the closed door like it had personally insulted him. 'There's no way she didn't hear that. She definitely heard that. She's just pretending I don't exist!'

And that was the final straw. His frustration bubbled over, and without thinking twice, he pushed the door open and barged into the bathroom.

The sight that greeted him nearly stopped his heart.

Loli was standing in front of the mirror, hands resting on the edge of the sink, her phone resting beside her.

She whipped around so fast that Hugo thought he saw an anime-style afterimage trail behind her.

Her eyes widened in pure disbelief before narrowing into a glare so icy it could freeze boiling water.

"What the hell, Hugo?!"

In that split second, Hugo had a thousand thoughts race through his mind.

'Why does she still look adorable even when she's pissed?'

'Those sweats should NOT look that good on her—focus, damn it!'

'Why do I suddenly feel like I just walked into a lion's den wearing steak-flavored cologne?'

He swallowed hard, raising his hands in what he hoped looked like a peaceful gesture. "Okay, look—just hear me out for one second. I didn't mean to—"

"Get. Out. Now." Her voice was low, dangerously low, like the calm before a nuclear explosion. Find adventures at novelbuddy

"Loli, please, just give me a chance to explain—"

Her expression didn't waver, and then she said the words that made every muscle in his body seize up.

"If you don't leave in the next five seconds, I'm going to scream for help."

"…You wouldn't." His voice cracked. Just a little.

Her eyes didn't blink. "Try me."

For a half-second, Hugo seriously considered pushing forward, maybe trying to reason with her, maybe even apologizing right there and then—but.

Her mouth opened.

"HELP—"

"NOPE!" Hugo spun around so fast he nearly tripped over his own feet, bolting out of the bathroom like a man who had just seen the Grim Reaper himself.

His heart hammered against his ribs, and his face burned with secondhand embarrassment that hadn't even fully settled in yet.

'I can't believe she actually did it. She actually screamed. I'm gonna die. This is how I die—death by humiliation.

The obituary's gonna read, 'Here lies Hugo, who walked into a bathroom and left his dignity behind forever.''

As he stumbled back into the main area of the coffee shop, every nerve in his body screamed for him to just keep walking.

Forget the group meeting. Forget Loli. Forget life as a concept.

"I am never trying that again."

Never Ever Ever!
