Chapter 543 I'm Giving the USB Drive to You

She was August's grandma. When she knew Timothy and Janet's true identity, she wanted to tell him at first, but then because of some circumstances and Lucia's request for her to keep it a secret, she could only keep the secret with difficulty.

In the past few days, she had been trying to reconcile August and Lucia, so that she would not have to keep the secret uncomfortably, but also to allow the two little ones to come home, which was the result she most liked to see.

But they hadn't made much progress in their relationship in the past few days. She was more anxious than they were, but she couldn't show it too obviously, so she had to keep it a secret every day.

When August heard his grandma's words for no reason, he didn't understand what she meant. So, he took a deep breath and asked, "Grandma, have you been in shock?"

Olivia frowned and grunted coldly, unwilling to talk to him. Then, she turned to Lucia on the bed, with mixed thoughts. From the beginning, she only wanted Lucia to be the Adams family's granddaughter-in-law.

In any case, even at the cost of her life, she must get the two of them together before she died.

Suddenly, something came to her mind. Afterward, she thought seriously for a moment and felt that it was feasible, so she looked at August and said, "August, I'm a little tired. You keep watch here, and I'll go back first."

August thought he had heard wrong when he heard Olivia's tone of voice was much calmer. Just now when he tried to persuade her, she refused to listen, but now she suddenly changed her mind.

No matter what, as long as Olivia was willing to compromise, everything would be fine.

With a softer tone, August said, half-coaxing, half-persuading, "Then you go back to rest first. When she wakes up, I'll call you."

Olivia nodded, "Okay, then I'll do as you say, but you have to promise me that you'll keep a good watch over her and not make any more mistakes!"

August nodded his head assuringly and smiled comfortingly at Olivia, "I know."

He first asked Burton to drive Olivia away, and then called Zane and the others to let them come over.

The phone had just hung up when his phone rang again. After raising his eyes to look at Lucia, who was still not yet awake, August turned off the sound and then drove his wheelchair to the door to answer it.

It seems that because of the sudden ringing of the phone just now, the woman on the bed moved slightly. With her delicate eyebrows furrowed together, she then slowly opened her eyes.

She was lying on her back, with her body stiff and a little sore. Slowly, as her vision cleared and all of her senses became much clearer, she heard the sound of pressed-down talking coming from the direction of the doorway, like someone on the phone.

Soon, the small sound of voices over there stopped, followed by the sound of a wheelchair turning. Immediately after, August's voice sounded, "Awake?"

Lucia subconsciously slightly tilted his head and wanted to look toward him, but when she moved, she pulled the injury on her back. At once, her brow furrowed in pain and she sucked in a cold breath.

Seeing this, August also frowned. He drove the wheelchair to the bed and stopped, whispering, "Don't move around. If you pull on the wound, it will heal more slowly."

Lucia took a deep breath, "But... I'm so uncomfortable."

Since she was taken to the hospital, she had been lying in this position on the bed and had not changed until now. She felt as if her body limbs had been nailed to the bed board, stiff and uncomfortable.

When August heard the words, a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes.

He knew this feeling very well. When he was disabled in both legs, he lay in bed at Evergreen Temple for more than a month to recover from the disease, unable to move his body, which made him suffer a lot.

At this moment, Lucia was also in this situation.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said in a light voice, "Wait a moment."

With that, he drove his wheelchair to the door, where Zane was already waiting there, so he immediately instructed Zane,

"Zane, you go to the orthopedic department over there to find a nurse to borrow one thing...

After hearing August's instructions, Zane did what he was told, even though he was puzzled.

August turned back to the ward, just in time to see Lucia reaching for the glass of water on the bedside table.

Because it was a bit far away, she reached out her hand several times to try to reach it.

Seeing this, August was instantly upset. He wanted to get closer quickly but could only drive the wheelchair.

Now, one of them was wounded, and the other was disabled, but they became closer when they were staying together. Coming to the head of the bed, he reached out and picked up the glass of water to steadily hand it to Lucia.

The woman hesitated for a moment. After her dark eyes locked with his, she quickly moved away again.

She said softly, "Thank you."

"For what?" August felt very guilty. If he hadn't let Jeanne in today, there wouldn't have been so many things that followed.

August's eyes darkened slightly, "Speaking of that, I want to apologize to you."

Lucia was slightly startled and looked towards him in surprise, moving her lips without speaking.

August fished a small something out of his pocket and handed it to her.

She looked down and saw a small USB drive lying in the center of the man's broad palm, "The video of Jeanne admitting to hitting Paula was in this USB drive. You wanted it at first, and now I'm giving it to you."

Lucia's eyes lingered on the USB drive for a long time, then her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at him with a light. smile, seemingly joking, "Why are you willing to give it to me now?"

August said some words unhurriedly, "You're worth it."
