Rewards

The next day, Lucia went out with sore legs. As soon as she entered the underground training hall, she saw Sophie

looking at her with a meaningful smile.

Being stared at like that, she felt uncomfortable, so she asked in embarrassment, "Do I look weird today?"

"Yes, Lucia. You look weird." Her tone was gossipier than her expression, sounding greasy.

Lucia touched her cheeks with the back of her hand and muttered curiously, "I think I look all right."

After Sophie walked around her, the light in her eyes got brighter. And then, she nudged her and whispered, "Did you

have sex last night?"

Hearing this, Lucia immediately blushed, hurriedly turned around, covered Sophie's mouth with her hand, and then

rolled her eyes at her speechlessly.

August and Joshua had changed into t army green shirts, so they looked stronger and more upright today.

"Are you still in the mood to joke? I will make you cry today!" Joshua taunted in a deep voice, grabbed Sophie's wrist, and

pulled her away.

The blush on Lucia's face hadn't faded yet, so when she saw August standing in front of her, her cheeks became even

redder. Then, she lowered her head and asked softly, "Won't Dr. Capet train together with me today?"

"No, Joshua will teach her alone." August gently held her soft little hand and whispered, "I hope you can complete

today's training."

While talking, they walked toward a closed room nearby. The moment the heavy iron door opened, the blush on Lucia's

face instantly disappeared, and her face became pale.

The room was so big that even her breathing had a faint echo. After entering the door, she saw a huge red platform. At

the farthest end of the platform stood several red and white circular targets. All kinds of weapons were hanging on the

dark green walls on both sides, giving a cold feeling.

Lucia couldn't help taking two steps back with fear in her eyes after recalling some horrible memories, and her slender

body trembled uncontrollably.

She squatted down and held her head in pain when the scene of her pointing a gun at August in the house popped into

her mind again.

"Lucia, it's all over!" August hurried forward to hold her into his arms and comforted her softly, saying, "Calm down! No

one can hurt you now."

Lucia ignored his words, closed her eyes, and muttered to herself, "I don't want to do it! I can't do it!"

"Lucia!" August suddenly felt a knot in his throat, and heartache quietly overflowed out of her heart, but he hurriedly

held it back.

He would not soften his heart now because he wanted her to face it. Even if the memory of that house was deeply buried

in her heart, it would haunt her all the time. He couldn't let her live under its shadow forever.

He frowned deeply, held her shoulders to let her face him, unknowingly raised his voice, and said in a stern tone, "Look

at me! If you want to stay in Griffith Organization, you must overcome it! You can't escape!"

"August, please!" Lucia murmured in a crying voice and clutched his sleeve tightly as if grasping a life-saving straw. When he saw her helpless expression, a trace of heartache flashed across his eyes. Then, he leaned over and whispered

into her ear, "Give up! This road is not suitable for you!"

Lucia raised her head hesitantly with tears on her fan-like eyelashes, and there was hesitation in her misty eyes. Should she give up now?

She had made a painstaking effort to get this opportunity. So, she did not want to give up or lose the opportunity to stay

by August's side. But these things...

After a long time, she struggled out of his embrace, barely got up on her trembling legs, wiped the tears off the corners of

her eyes, and said firmly, "If the same thing happens again, I will not make myself flustered again.

Then, she nodded vigorously at him and said, "Let's begin!"

August responded softly, pulled her to the edge of the red platform, took a relatively easy to use gun from the wall, and placed it in front of her. Lucia was not familiar with guns, so she thought it was heavy. But she still gritted her teeth and persisted, holding the gun at a position parallel to her jaw.

August wrapped his arm around her shoulders, helped her adjust the gun's position, and said in a deep voice, "Your arms.

must not tremble. If you want to hit the target, you must overcome the fear in your heart."

Hearing this, she took a deep breath, adjusted her posture according to his guidance, and fixed her eyes on the red

bull's-eve in the distance through the front sight.

With a loud "bang", the bullet got out of the barrel, pierced the air, and flew straight forward. When the enormous

impact force bounced, Lucia involuntarily took a step back and leaned against August's warm chest.

When they looked at the target in the distance together, they found the silver bullet she had shot out was firmly

embedded in the target. Although it had not hit the center, it had not missed the target either.

"August!" She turned around, threw herself into his arms with joy in her eyes, and shouted happily, "I did it! Have you

seen it?"
