Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 331

Chapter 331 Cross The Rubicon

After a while, Lucia was out of her trance. "Are you serious? You are the landlord of this apartment?" She asked

again in disbelief to confirm it.

"Yeah." Raising his brows, August answered inadvertently.

Lucia felt that it was hard for her to accept the fact that the apartment she had lived in for months was his

property literally....

And, she couldn't help wondering the reason why he leased his apartment to her at an unusually cheap price.

Could it be possible that he had some ulterior motive for that?

The thought struck her great and she took a step back immediately. "Do... do you have any ulterior motive for

leasing me your apartment?" She asked him vigilantly.

August snorted at her words and got further close to her. "Tell me, do you think you are worthy of any special

intention of me?" Are you a raving beauty? Do you have a terrific figure? Or you are richer than me?"

A volley of questions from him choked her words for a long time.

Speech after a long silence. "If so, why you..." Lucia spoke passionately.

"Just because I was ashamed and uneasy of myself. It was just a little favor, you don't have to take it seriously."

August, saying, laid a glance at her swiftly.

With a complete somersault of her heart, Lucia tasted the bitterness in his words when she got his words

straight.

The "was" he meant referred to when they had just gotten divorced.

Lucia breathed deeply in order to hold the negative emotion hanging in her mind back. "How... how did you get

hurt?" She made an attempt to disguise her unease by changing the topic. "Why did you come to my home

again?"

"Never mind, I'm fine with it." Said August with studied understatement while he was clearing away the

bloody bandage. "And the reason why I came here today was that grandma was at home, I don't want her to be

worried about me."

"But why you don't go to the hospital?" Lucia blurted out.

After speaking, she realized that her question was too blunt to be polite.

Before she could say more, August, moving his lips and lifting his eyebrows, said with a smile flickering on the

corner of his mouth, "I'm the owner of the apartment, so it is acceptable for me to come here in an emergency,

right?"

His excuse left Lucia dumbfounded, which made her find no words to retort him.

He was right, she could not rouse the landlord out when he was injured.

While Lucia was still sinking in thought, August made it straight toward her bedroom. When she came to her

sense, he had already been in the doorway of her bedroom and was about to enter.
