Chapter 720 Gentleman
The basement of Griffith Organization was brightly lit and filled with all kinds of training equipment. And there were loud explosions from time to time. Some people in black tights were fighting in groups of two, while the others were shooting.
Joshua used to look like a dandy, but now, the look in his eyes was bloodthirsty and serious when he stared at the two women and said, "Attack me again."
Lucia and Sophie exchanged glances and then punched him again at the same time. Two minutes later, two slender
figures fell to the soft mat together.
Joshua rubbed his sore wrist and taunted unceremoniously, "Do you guys still want to "graduate" from Griffith
Organization? Why don't you obediently go home to take care of the plants."
Sophie and Lucia didn't reply. Their bodies were covered with red swellings and bruises, but they still forced themselves
to get up and stand opposite him.
With two sharp shouts, Sophie rushed forward and punched him in the lower abdomen. Joshua resisted with one hand
and raise the other to stop her from attacking him. But she suddenly turned her fist aside, opened her arms, and hooked
his neck. At the same time, Lucia took the opportunity to grab his arms. When he was about to raise his leg to attack, she
kicked it hard.
When their ankles touched each other, a gleam flashed across Lucia's eyes. And she soon bent down and grabbed his
ankle. After the two women exchanged glances, they exerted force together to push him back.
With a muffled sound, Joshua fell to the ground in embarrassment.
"His moves are the same every time. After practicing fighting skills with him a few times, we saw his flaws." Lucia patted
the dust off her hands and looked excitedly at August not far away.
August nodded in satisfaction, walked slowly to them, and said, "You've made a painstaking effort in training these two
days. You can be counted to have graduated from the first course."
She frowned slightly, "We can be counted to have graduated?"
August responded gloomily, "Joshua is not the strongest fighter here, and you will encounter stronger opponents in the
future."
Joshua had fallen hard this time. So, he bared his teeth in pain, walked to August, and said, "These two women are
ruthless. No wonder Flynt took a fancy to them."
Sophie looked at the wounds in varied sizes on herself and Lucia and complained, "You have tortured us severely! It is
justified for us to treat you ruthlessly."
"That's because you're too weak!"
August cast a cold warning glance at him and then said in a deep voice, "This is just the beginning. If you can't bear it,
you can give up."
"Impossible!" Sophie and Lucia responded at the same time. Then, the latter said, "August, I got this opportunity on my
own merit. As long as Flynt is willing to give me an opportunity, I will never quit."
"If so, take a good rest. We will start the second training tomorrow," August said, turned around, and walked out of the
basement.
Seeing this, Sophie couldn't help poking Lucia's elbow and complaining in a faint voice, "August has been a bit too tough
recently. What's wrong with him?"
"Tough?" Hearing this, Joshua couldn't help sneering, "He doesn't want Lucia to join Griffith Organization. He agreed to
let her stay because he respects her choice. So, you can't ask him to have a good attitude toward you guys." Sophie immediately glared at him, pinched his waist hard with her fingers, and said through gritted teeth, "If you keep
silent, no one will think of you as a dumb person. Why are you talking nonsense all the time?"
it was only then that Joshua realized that Lucia's face was a little gloomy. He sighed heavily, took out two flat paper
boxes from his pocket, stuffed one into her palm, and said, "This is a topical medicine developed by the organization. It
can help heal your injuries. August specially bought it for you. He cares about you very much."
Lucia held the box tightly, showed a less gloomy face, and said softly, "I need to talk with him, so I must go now."
"Love is a horrible tomb." Looking at her walking away in a hurry, Sophie pursed her lips and complained, "But it must
feel good to be cared for."
Hearing this, Joshua showed an unnatural look, coyly handed her the other paper box, and said, "This is for you."
"Me?" Sophie was startled, slowly took the medicine over, and looked at his unnatural face with inquiry in her clear eyes.
The atmosphere between them inexplicably became strange. Joshua hurriedly turned his face aside to avoid her gaze.
Only then did Sophie realize what the medicine meant and unknowingly blush with shyness.
"Thank you!" she murmured and then stammered, "Well, I must go back to treat the wounds first. See you tomorrow."
Then, she quickly fled out of the basement.
Joshua scratched his head in embarrassment and suddenly felt that their relationship was getting increasingly awkward.
When Lucia pushed open the bedroom door, she vaguely saw a man standing upright by the window in the dark room.
"If you don't want me to stay in Griffith Organization, I can go back now," she said softly, looking at him from behind.
After a long time, August finally reacted. He casually turned on the light, naturally took the medicine box out of her hand,
pulled her to the bed, and let her sit down.
"This medicine is potent, but it will be a little painful when you apply it to the wounds." While speaking, he opened the
