Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 We're Not Boyfriends and Girlfriends Lucia paused and turned to look at him.

August slightly raised his eyebrows, glanced at the table, and

cleared his throat lightly, "Since you're here, let's eat together."

Lucia also looked over and saw the large piles of lunch boxes on the table, exuding bursts of aroma. Her stomach growled

uncontrollably.

She blushed and didn't know whether to agree or not. When she

looked up and saw August's black eyes, she had to bite the bullet

and agree.

Joshua was leaning against the wall and looking at them with

interest. He coughed lightly, and joked with a smile, "August, you

are cold-faced but warm-hearted. You specifically asked me to buy

more food. Didn't you want to..."

Before he could finish his sentence, August glanced at him coldly.

He immediately shut up and winked at him meaningfully.

August frowned and said, "You go out."

ELELIIIIIIIIIIIIILE

"August, you are ruthless..." Joshua said with a smile. Although he

was unhappy, he still walked out.

When the door of the ward closed, the room was quiet for a

moment.

Seeing August put a clean fork aside, Lucia took a deep breath,

walked to his side, sat down, and started eating.

Perhaps because of what Joshua had said just now, Lucia somehow

felt a little embarrassed. She lowered her head to eat and didn't

look up for a long time.

August took a few bites and realized that something was wrong

with Lucia. He frowned, looked up at her, and smiled

unconsciously.

He had never seen such a silly girl, who only focused on one dish.

Her face blushed. It seemed she was embarrassed or shy.

"Lucia," August raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you eat other

dishes?"

Hearing his words, Lucia raised her head and said, "...I'm eating."

Then she symbolically picked up a piece of green vegetable and put

it into her mouth.

August chuckled softly, and the coldness on his face suddenly

dissipated a lot.

Lucia was confused, "What are you laughing at? What's wrong with

me?"

She didn't know what was going on. August suddenly stretched out

his hand and lifted her chin slightly with his slender and beautiful

hand. His thumb lightly brushed over her mouth, taking a grain of

rice from the corner of her lips.

The next second, he said, "You're certainly not an elegant eater."

With that, he retracted his hand.

At that moment, Lucia only felt that her face was burning hot. It

was so embarrassing!

Two seconds later, she suddenly came to her sense, quickly put

down the lunch box, and rummaged for a paper napkin in her

pocket.

At this moment, August said with a little chuckle, "Here it is."

He took out a paper napkin and handed it over to her.

Before she took it, there came a knock on the door. Then someone

walked in and it was the nurse who had treated their wounds

today.

"I'm here to check on you." When she saw the scene in the room,

she immediately put on a faint smile and said half-jokingly, "I

wondered why I didn't see anyone in the ward next door. It turns

out you're with your boyfriend!"

She winked at Lucia, "Well, I will leave you alone."

Lucia's face slushed, and she took a deep breath, "We... we're not

boyfriend and girlfriend."

The nurse was stunned as if she hadn't expected it. After being

stunned for two seconds, she smiled dryly, "Well... I'm sorry, I

thought..."

Lucia forced a smile and said, "It's okay."

The nurse's eyes suddenly became a little complicated. She smilec

awkwardly and walked out of the ward quickly.

Lucia secretly breathed a sigh of relief. August would be unhappy

when others mistakenly thought she had something to do with

him.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw that his face was a little

gloomy. She took a deep breath and said, "I explained it to her just

now. I think she wouldn't say it again next time."

But hearing her explanation, August became even gloomier.

Without saying a word, he picked up the cup next to him, took a

sip, and didn't reply.

Seeing his sudden change of face, Lucia, though confused, didn't

dare to ask. So she had to speed up to finish the food in her hand.

It seemed that the atmosphere in the room became much colder

because of this episode. Lucia quickly finished the food and wiped

her mouth, "I'm done. Well, I'll go back first."

Seeing that August didn't say anything, Lucia turned around to

leave. But just as she turned around to walk, he suddenly grabbed

her wrist.

August said coldly, "From now on, in the hospital, you have to

come here for three meals a day."

Lucia was surprised, "Why?"

What kind of rule was this?

August said lightly, "Oh, nothing. You blocked the whip for me,

and I can afford your meals."

Then he let go.

After Lucia left, Joshua came back. He stood at the end of the bed,

and smiled meaningfully, "August, I've never seen you like this."

"Do you have anything other than gossip in your mind?" August

raised his eyes, glanced at him, and said with a serious face, "How

is Charlotte doing?"

"He's monitoring those small potatoes. Their whereabouts are

very suspicious recently. We don't know what they will do."

August's voice became a little deeper, "Keep monitoring them. I

don't need to explain what you should do next, right?"

Joshua played with the lighter in his hand, and reminded in a low

voice, "Oh, you'd better be caresul yourself. Your father came back

this time. I'm afraid it's not just the company's accident. Pay more

attention to him and Bishop."

August's eyes became more serious and he said, "I understand."
