Chapter 502 Grandma Knows All
Hearing this, Lucia's nose twitched. The tears welled up, and she couldn't speak a word.
She managed to calm down before she said, "Grandma..."
Olivia patted her hand and said seriously, "Besides, I can see that there are still feelings between you, and..." She paused and her bloodshot eyes looked fixedly at Lucia, "I know your two children are..."
Without waiting for Olivia finish, Lucia's eyes were widened. She suddenly tensed up, her heart beating wildly and her blood boiling. 'Does she already know the true origins of Timothy and Janet? Thought Lucia.
"Grandma..."
Seeing her shocked expression, Olivia spoke without haste, "From the first time I saw those two kids, I already had a rough guess in my mind. After that I had someone reliable to make some investigation, and I didn't expect that they were your children! Although they are nominally named Thomas, I knew that they were definitely you and August's children! Because that little one looked exactly like August when he was a child!"
Lucia's throat tightened and she couldn't say anything. It turned out that as early as after Olivia met Timothy and Janet by chance at the entrance of the planetarium, she already knew about their birth, but she unexpectedly kept quiet about it.
"I'm not sure what exactly happened between you and August before. There may be a misunderstanding, or there may really be a problem, but I totally respect your choice. Though I heartily prefer you two to be together, I will not force you to do
anything."
Hearing Olivia's words, Lucia's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She looked at Olivia with teary eyes, gritted her teeth and said, "Grandma, I will look into this and try my best to find out any clue."
Olivia nodded, took her hand and nodded solemnly, saying in a serious voice, "No matter what, he is the biological father of the two children. Even if they don't know anything about this, you don't want them to grow up without a father, right?" Lucia's mind flashed back to the scene when August took Timothy and Janet to play together, and her heart was somehow touched a little. Although they did not know each other's real relationship, there was inexplicable attraction that existed between them, and there was no way to change and eliminate kinship.
She gritted her teeth, made a decision in her mind, and seriously looked at Olivia, "Grandma, you take care of your health.
Just leave this to me."
After all, she did have something to do with what happened to August, and if it wasn't for her, August wouldn't have fallen into the trap. Actually, she felt guilty about him.
Olivia was a bit excited and held her hand, "Lucia, then I'm pinning all my hopes on you! Don't worry. I'll take care of the manpower and financial resources. As long as you need, I'll grant you whatever you ask!"
Lucia felt both heartbroken and touched after hearing this, her lips twisting. She took a deep breath and said, "I hope something good will happen."
"It will." The old lady nodded repeatedly, her tone unwavering, "It definitely will."
Lucia and Olivia talked for a while, but in the end, Olivia was obviously a little absent-minded. She looked around and
suddenly stepped close to Lucia, saying in a voice, "Lucia, it's quite possible that someone is watching us from the shadows right now. Bishop is scheming. You have to be more careful and be more cautious."
Listening to Olivia's instructions, Lucia seriously nodded. She didn't know Bishop well before, but now, she already knew. something about him. He was never going to be a simple character. And now she had to avoid him if she wanted to find August.
"Okay, I will." Said Lucia.
Olivia nodded, took a deep breath and said, "It's getting late. I should go back, otherwise Bishop will be suspicious. Actually
he has begun to suspect me. I came to the cemetery today just for show. I did not expect to meet you."
Lucia was shocked and asked, "Did he ask someone to keep an eye on you?"
Olivia nodded, kept silent and did not say anything. Knowing this, the chill in Lucia's heart got deeper. She didn't expect that
Bishop would get this far. He even refused to spare even the elderly. She pondered for a moment then raised her eyes to look at Olivia and said softly, "Grandma, let's leave it at that, otherwise he will suspect you, then things will be even worse." Olivia immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes, you're right!"
The two of them chatted briefly for a few more moments and then separated. Lucia turned her head and took a deep look at the black-and-white photo of the man on the tombstone. Her heart sank, and she suppressed all her emotions and left. When she came out of the cemetery, her mind still reverberated with what Olivia had said to her. She casually stopped a taxi and was about to get in and leave when her eyes swept to a black car not far from the roadside. Her hand paused as she pulled the door.
Half a second later, she continued as if nothing had happened and directly got into the car. After telling the driver's address, the car slowly moved forward. She raised her eyes to look at the two sides of the rearview mirror, and indeed saw that the black car also slowly started, and followed them, keeping a distance from them.
It seemed that she should be watched. In all probability, it was Bishop's people. She slightly clenched her fist, and a burst of displeasure surged in her heart. After a moment, she slowly calmed down. She suddenly got an idea. Bishop could send someone to follow her and watch her, and she could just as easily do what she wanted them to see. There were pros and
cons.
In short, no matter what, from this moment on, as long as she tried to look for August's whereabouts, she must be careful
and serious at all times. She must not to fall into Bishop's trap!
