Chapter 795 She Loved Him More than She Loved
Herself

Lucia returned home and took a comfortable hot bath. After washing off the blood and dust from her body, she changed into a decent long dress before going out with her bag.

August turned his head to look at her, and said without any emotion in his tone, "Are you going out?"

’Yes." She paused, and explained nervously, "I haven't been to the company for a long time, so I think I need to go back and have a look."

August didn't talk, but Timothy stepped forward and hugged her leg, looking very well-behaved, "Can I go with you? The situation has been more severe recently, and your computer needs to be more secure."

Lucia hurriedly responded, "How about next time? I have important things to do today."

Timothy and August exchanged glances, and then the boy let go of Lucia. She secretly let out a sigh of relief and went out. She went straight to the nearby shopping mall to pick out a birthday present for Phillip. Edmund had already sent her the location of the restaurant.

Seeing her alone across the road from the window, Edmund in the restaurant heaved a sigh of relief.

Lucia quickly pushed the door open and entered. Seeing him alone at the dining table, she couldn't help feeling slightly surprised, "Where is Phillip?"

Edmund politely invited her to take a seat. He pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and explained, "He is doing oral rehabilitation in an educational institution. The driver will bring him over later.

Let's order some food first."

She didn't suspect anything. She was very happy to hear that Phillip was now willing to cooperate with the rehabilitation and said, "Phillip is now willing to cooperate with the treatment?"

Edmund nodded, "Lucia, it's all thanks to you. If you hadn't persuaded Phillip all the time, I'm afraid he wouldn't have received treatment so quickly."

While they were talking, the waiter had already brought the dishes to the table. Lucia was busy asking questions about Phillip without any intention of picking up the fork.

Edmund urged her several times in a row, but she smiled and waved her hand, "The birthday boy hasn't arrived yet. We certainly shouldn't eat first."

With the sound of the cork of the red wine popping, the waiter respectfully placed the wine in the middle of the table.

When Lucia heard the sound, her heart skipped a beat. Her eyes fell on the dishes on the table. She suddenly realized something, and subconsciously frowned slightly.

None of the dishes on the table were suitable for children, and there were only two forks.

For this so-called birthday party of a child, Edmund didn't even prepare a birthday cake but opened a bottle of expensive red wine.

When Edmund saw her not very happy, he immediately explained, "Phillip could only be here in two hours. I'm inviting you to dinner alone to thank you for having treated Phillip as your child for so long."

'Mr. Shea, it seems inappropriate to put it this way." She responded in a cold voice.

Lucia..." With determination in his eyes, he solemnly took out a velvet brocade box from his pocket, opened the lid, and pushed it in front of her, "I know it's rude to say these words to you on such an occasion, but I hope you can give me a Chance."

Lucia froze and stared at him in astonishment.

"Lucia, Phillip needs a mother and a family with a mother. More importantly, I like you. I hope you can seriously consider my suggestion."

Edmund took out the ring, grabbed her arm, and was about to put the ring on her ring finger, although she already had a shiny wedding ring on her ring finger.

"Edmund!" Lucia hurriedly struggled to retract her hand, forcibly suppressing the urge to slap him, and said with a hint of anger in her tone.

"Phillip will meet a mother who treats him sincerely, and you will also meet someone you like. The most important thing is that I am married."

"You can get divorced even if you are married. You and August just remarried recently. I don't mind it and I will treat Timothy and Janet as my children." Edmund sounded very serious.

Lucia suddenly felt a chill in her heart. She felt that the man in front of her was not as polite and gentle as he looked. He was rude and pretentious. She even felt that there was something wrong with him.

"But I mind it..." She responded indifferently, "Edmund, my divorce with August was just a misunderstanding, and we got remarried because I have never forgotten him over the years. I love him even more than I love myself."

Lucia was icy cold to Edmund. He was greatly shocked and disappointed. She admitted that the person she loved was August! There was a flash of ruthlessness in his eyes, and it disappeared before anyone could see it.

Lucia got up quickly before he could speak, put the gift she had prepared for Phillip on the table, and said with a guarded and alienated expression on her face, "This is my birthday present for Phillip. Excuse me."

She walked out of the restaurant quickly, and immediately got into a taxi on the side of the road, "Sir, the Trade Center please..."

When her voice came out of the computer speaker, Timothy let out a sigh of relief.

Earlier, when his mother was standing at the door talking to his father, she seemed a little nervous. He suspected that her mother was going to do something stupid secretly, and he was also afraid that her mother would be in danger. So he used the gesture of hugging her leg and putting the communication device into his mother's bag.
