Lucia was stunned She looked up at August and widened her eyes
How will this work7
The teacher asked for a family photo But August
Lucia couldnt make a decision
Paul was not here, and the kids needed to send the photos to the teacher in time
Timothy looked at the time Mom, before it's too late1"
Lucia took a deep breath She looked at August, and, after encouraging herself, said, "Well lets take a picture '
August was smiling brightly He asked, What photo7'
Lucia hurriedly said, 'It's nothing
Timothy cut in anxiously, Our teacher asked us to take a picture of our family when we go out and play It s homework '
Hearing this. August repeated the kids words, "Family7"
He didn t dislike the word
Lucia flushed and said, "It s not what you think"
Hearing her words, August silently smiled He stood up and let the kids stand before him and Lucia He then reached out his long arm to
take her phone After setting into selfie mode, he clicked the shutter button
In the photo, the kids were smiling brightly August also showed a rare gentle expression Only Lucia seemed to be at a loss, looking dumbfounded but lovely
August looked at the photo and beamed with satisfaction He then sent the photo to his phone and handed the phone back to the kids "It s done'
"Yeah We can hand in homework now1"
Happily, Timothy sent the photo to their teacher
"Okay1 Done1
When he handed the phone back to Lucia, the teacher had already replied
The teacher texted, [What a loving family!]
Lucia was even more dumbfounded now, and was rendered speechless.
All of them are so fast'
She turned around and found August put both his hands on both the kids They were looking at the scenery outside the window, and they themselves made a beautiful scenery
Lucia had a strange feeling in her heart
If those things never happened and she kept being together with August, she and August must be a happy couple with the lovely kids.
Suddenly, the box shook slightly, and brought Lucia back to reality abruptly
She couldnt help wondering why she had such thoughts?
She patted her cheeks to calm herself down At this moment, they had finished a round She stood up and led the kids out of the box
It was hot this day Near noon, the sun was even more dazzling August found the kids keep sweating and said to Lucia, "Let's find a place
to rest It's almost lunchtime"
Lucia also found that the kids were tired She nodded "Okay"
There was a specialty restaurant not far away They went in and found a vacant table After they sat down, a waiter brought them menu They ordered several dishes as well as two kids' set meals Lucia took out wet tissue from her bag and wiped the kids hands clean Soon, the wet tissue turned from its original white into black Lucia took the opportunity to educate them, "See the dirt on your hands7 Do remember to wash or wipe your hands before every meal, okay7'
Janet nodded as she watched Lucia wiping her hands and then putting away the unused wet tissues The little girl turned to August and then to her mother, and said hesitantly, "Mom, you hadn t wiped Uncle Charming s hands yet"
Lucia was stunned numb by her daughter's words She looked up and found the man also looking at her. She was at a loss for words Janet took a sip of the juice that had been served just now, and echoed his sister, 'Yes, yes. Mom, didn't you tell us that everyone needs to
clean his hand before meals?" / j
August smirked. Intentionally or not, he reached out his hands in front of Lucia and said smilingly, "Help me, please *
Lucia's face turned pale as she was in such a dilemma She didnt know whether she should help him or not After all, she had taught the kids a minute ago If she refused, she would be swallowing her own words
She took a breath and extracted a wet tissue from her bag She had intended to muddle through, but, unexpectedly, her wrists were grabbed as soon as she put the tissue on the mans hand
She was startled In her fluster, she looked up and met the mans black eyes Her heart skipped a beat
What what are you doing’"
How could he do this in front of Timothy and Janet7
She wanted to shake off his grip Unexpectedly again, he took the tissue from her hand and wiped her wrist for her
She didn't find the dirt on her wrist until then
August wiped her hands clean quickly, and then he said, "Don't forget your own hands next time
Luc a froze with shock Her heart was pounding so fast, and. before she knew it, she had blushed
Janet nodded and echoed, Yes, Uncle Charming is right
Lucia was so flustered Fortunately, the waiter happened to come serving dishes at this moment, which helped her cover her
embarrassment and panic
She lost all her appetite for the dishes.
But August, on the contrary, seemed to be easy and composed He not only ate a lot, but also took good care of the kids
When the dishes were to be finished, Janet kept looking aside Lucia patted her little head and reminded, ‘Focus on your meal, babe'
Janet looked up and fixed her innocent big eyes on her mother She said softly and cutely. Mom, I also wanna strawberry cake ‘
Lucia looked aside and found a child sitting on the table besides them was eating strawberry cake
