Not everything would work out as lucky as it did today and if something did happen to her, it would be'
too late.'®
to go, August did not have time to say goodbye to Greeves and took Lucia directly out of Hibiscus Garden, Once Ted's story came out, it undoubtedly made Greevils lose face as well. They were too busy to take'®
care of themselves at this point, and couldn't care for others.'
Back to the bachelor pad. Lucia returned to the bedroom with bruises to change her clothes. As soon as'®
she went out, she saw August sitting on the couch, not intending to leave.'
August had come to her. She walked up and said softly, "It's late. 11 going to take a shower and get some rest." Beyond the words, it was time for him to leave.'®
Al that, as if he didn't understand the meaning of her words, August raised an eyebrow slightly and'
asked, "Are you hungry?" Lucia was stunned and quickly reacted. Was he planning to use cooking to stay again?'®
She took a deep breath and said, "I'm not hungry."'
She had eaten a lot at the birthday party and was really not hungry.'
When he heard that, an unnoticeable light flashed under August's eyes. He got up, casually unbuttoned'
the sleeves of his shirt, and pulled it up.'
With that, he took a step in the direction of the bathroom, "Okay, then I'll help you take a shower."'
Lucia's eyes instantly widened and she looked al August incredulously.'
Did she hear it wrong? He said he would help her take a bath!'®
"Wait!"'®
I can take a'
shower by myself. If you have nothing else to do, just leave!"'®
If she hadn't retained her sanity, she would have thought that the two of them were still married!'
August calmly swept a glance at the wounds on her body and said lightly, "Your wounds can't touch the water. How can you wash by yourself?" He took the initiative 10 help her, but why did she look so reluctant? Lucia hurriedly changed her tone and said, "Then... I won't take a bath!"'® let alone let'®
him baihe her now! August raised an eyebrow slightly. Seeming 10 see through what she was thinking, he didn't say much, but suddenly, his eyes were drawn to the necklace around her neck. When she returned from Hibiscus Garden, she had been wrapped in his suit and he hadn't even noticed'® the necklace around her neck. But now after she changed into her pajamas, the necklace was exposed'®
glittering, and very eye-catching'®
It was the one that Paul gave her last time!'®
August's eyes darkened, and before he could say anything, the phone in his pocket had already rung.'
When he took it out and saw the woman's name flashing back and forth on the screen, he gripped the'
phone tightly'
It was Jeanne who called.'®
The woman's voice came from the other end with a bit of aggravation, "August, didn't you say you'd come'
August replied in a light tone, "I was delayed by something." Jeanne continued to ask, "So... are you still coming tonight? If I don't see you, I feel very uneasy." August's eyes darkened. After a few seconds of pause, he lightened his voice and said, "I can't get away'
for a short time. I'll see you tomorrow. Be obedient and rest well."'
At the word, Jeanne on the other end of the phone was not very happy, but she finally agreed, "Okay, I'll'®
wait for you to come to see me tomorrow..."'
When he hung up the phone, August turned around and saw Lucia standing at his back, staring at him'
