Lucia somehow felt that his words were a bit ambiguous.

She cleared her throat awkwardly and said casually, "We'll see. I'm hanging up first."

With that, she hung up the phone in a panic, and her heart was pounding.

After lying on her stomach all night, she only felt that her chest was aching, and she couldn't help turning over. So she had to lie on her side for a while to relieve the pressure on her chest.

After a short while, someone knocked on the door. Grandma walked in with a maid and brought breakfast.

Grandma stepped forward and asked earnestly, "Lucia, how

are you feeling?”

Lucia forced a smile and said softly, "Grandma, I'm feeling better."

Even if her back hurt badly, she still forced a smile in front of Grandma.

Grandma felt sorry for her. She took the bowl of chicken soup from the maid and said softly, "Lucia, don’t move. I'll feed you. The chicken soup is easy to digest..."

When Lucia heard this, her heart warmed. Her eyes went wet when she saw Grandma feeding the soup to her with a spoon.

She was not a member of the Adams family now, and she was touched that Grandma treated her so well.

Grandma took a tissue and wiped the corners of her eyes, 2/11 IB 18% ^,00”°

"Silly girl, why are you crying?"

Lucia sniffed and said softly, "Thank you, Grandma, for never treating me as an outsider."

Grandma smiled and said softly, "You are never an outsider in my heart."

She had always liked Lucia. Last night Lucia had stepped forward to protect August without hesitation. Grandpa recognized her as her granddaughter-in-law in her heart.

"Come on, eat the soup and take the medicine, so you can get better soon."

After being fed by Grandma, Lucia felt so warm in her heart, as if the pain in her back had also eased a bit.

After feeding Lucia, Grandma got up, tucked Lucia in, and said softly, "Lucia, take a good rest. Just make yourself at

home, and let me know if you need anything." /

Lucia gave her a sweet smile and said, "I know, Grandma."

Soon, Grandma left. Lucia was lying on the bed, unable to fall asleep. She simply turned on the soft music on her phone and closed her eyes to rest.

The warm sun was shining on the bed through the window. Before she knew it, she fell asleep.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but when she woke up, she heard footsteps from the door.

Hearing the door opening, she instantly woke up a little. She raised her hand and turned off the soft music on her phone.

There came a cold and distant female voice, "Ms. Mitchell, are you awake?"

Lucia didn’t turn her head and recognized that it was Christina's voice.

She took a deep breath and said softly, "Yes, I'm awake."

Then, Eliot said in a somewhat stern voice, "Christina, just tell her directly."

Hearing his voice, Lucia was stunned for a moment. She suddenly woke up a little and quickly sat up with difficulty.

She greeted them politely, "Mr. Adams, Mrs. Adams."

Seeing this, Christina immediately stepped forward and said softly, "You don’t need to get up. I'm just here to talk to you."

Seeing Eliot's somewhat serious expression, Lucia took a deep breath and asked, "It’s okay, Mrs. Adams. If you have something to say, just say it."

Christina paused, glanced at Eliot, turned back to Lucia, and

said, "As for what you said yesterday, we have already investigated it. Since you got the marriage certificate with August, we wouldn't say anything. But when you got divorced, it was you who asked for a divorce, right?"

Lucia nodded and said, "Yes, I asked for it."

Christina said euphemistically, "You asked for a divorce, but you are still around us August. Isn’t it inappropriate?"

Lucia certainly knew what she meant. She took a deep breath and said softly, "I thought about it too, but my work contract hasn't expired. Before that, I can't leave."

When Eliot heard this, his face was a little blue with anger, and he snorted coldly, "Well, you can't you leave? I think you just don't want to leave!"

"A person must be self-aware. In our Adams family, no one

can enter whenever they want. You can directly tell us what

you want, and I will give it to you."

Lucia raised her eyes and saw the cold light from the bottom

of Eliot's eyes, and her heart sank.

Unexpectedly, in Eliot's eyes, she had ulterior motives for staying by August's side.

She gritted her teeth and said in a firm tone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Adams, I stay in the company just for work. All I want is a job, nothing else."

Eliot disagreed, "I've seen a lot of women like you. So why beat around the bush with me? Just tell me, how much do you want?"

Lucia's heart trembled, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

She gritted her teeth and looked at Eliot, unable to say a word.

She had thought that everyone in the Adams family was as reasonable and kind as Grandma. She had never expected the head of the Adams family to be so narrow-minded.

Seeing this, Christina forced a smile in embarrassment on the side, looked at Lucia, and said softly, "Ms. Mitchell, don't think too much. We didn't mean it. Some too many women threw themselves at August and used tricks to trap August. We are just worried..."

"Mrs. Adams, do you mean that I also stay by President Adams to trap him?"

Christina smiled, "We didn't mean that."

Hearing Lucia's words, Eliot looked at Lucia with a bit more
