Was she really being targeted by some terrorist group7 If it was true, Timothy. Janet. Bill1, and Elisa were all in danger*
With this in mind, Lucia took out her phone nervously and made a call with trembling hands Al this moment, she could only ask August for help1
Soon it went through When she heard August s low, firm voice on the other end of the line, Lucia said in a constricted voice, ‘August
She had a lot to say. but she didnt know how to say it
August realised that something was wrong He immediately asked. ‘What's wrong7"
Lucia bit her lip 'Can you come over here
Before she could finish. August interrupted her. 'Give me your address ‘
In less than half an hour, a black car stopped in front of Lucias car
August quickly got out of the car He looked around with sharp eyes and soon saw Lucia hiding under a tree
It was drizzling Lucias we: hair was plastered to her cheeks, and she looked so pitiful with her body curled up in a tight little ball Augusts heart jolted He frowned slightly and strode toward her despite the ram. He leaned down, wiped the ram off her face, and asked
in a low voice. "What happened7'
Instantly, his words dispelied the sadness, tiredness, and fear in Lucias heart She looked up and subconsciously lugged at his shirt ‘The
trunk..*
August immediately went to the trunk When he opened it and saw the dead cat, his face instantly darkened He glanced at the card with a
frown on his grim face He picked up the card, which was stained with the cat s blood, nnd saw the words on it
‘Ms Mitchell, since you don't like flowers, let s make it interesting * There was also a spider web symbol in the lower right comer
August clenched his fist, his bones clattering He immediately crumpled the card into a ball and threw it away

Lucia was relieved by his words She took a deep breath, looked up into his dark eyes, and nodded to him I trust you‘
August nodded slightly, took an umbrella from Burton, held it ovei her head, and ordered, 'Have the driver take her car to the cat wash ’
Burton immediately went to inform the driver
August lowered his head to look al Uicta's pale face He fell bad for her and said in a soft voice, ‘Where are you going7 III lake you there*
