Chapter 797 Are You Jealous?
He didn't know whom he was talking about. But Currer knew in her heart that August had believed the contents of the photos, and there was already a rift between him and Lucia.
When she saw him casually put the photos into the drawer, the light in her eyes was dim. She secretly clenched her fists and boldly approached him, "August, don't quarrel with Lucia over this trivial matter. It still needs to be investigated a bit."
"No need to investigate." He crossed his legs and slowly leaned back on the chair. There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "Obvious things don't need to be investigated."
She became even bolder when she heard his words. She put her hands on his big hands, and almost leaned on him, "I didn't expect Lucia to do such a thing. I just feel sorry for the two lovely children outside."
She sighed softly. She was so immersed in her superb acting skills that she did not notice the fleeting disgust in August's eyes.
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Currer was a little unhappy, but she didn't dare to press too hard. So she simply changed the subject, "Even I can't find out who is behind these anonymous letters. You must be careful."
"You too."
It was rare for August to say such words to her, and this was an unexpected gain for her. The joy in her heart was intense, and she got a little carried away
"August, my love for you has never changed. No matter what happens, I will support you without hesitation."
"Really?" The coldness in August's voice was subtle. Before she could react, he grasped her wrists and stood up. The gray shadow of his body slowly enveloped her.
When she sensed his coldness, her face suddenly changed. She subconsciously gripped the corner of the table for fear that he would find something wrong with his sharp eyes.
"Then tell me, who is the mastermind behind the anonymous letters?" He said coldly.
Currer's face turned pale in an instant, and even her knuckles began to turn white due to too much force. She didn't dare to breathe, and murmured in a trembling voice, "August, what do you mean by that? I..."
Before she could finish her sentence, August's coldness was completely withdrawn, "I can't find a reason to doubt you."
Currer still hadn't recovered from the fright. She still gritted her teeth to suppress the unstoppable chills, and her palms were already drenched in a cold sweat.
Janet's nervous voice came from the door of the living room, "Mom, how could your office documents be in the living room?"
With her childish voice, the door of the room was pushed open. The two of them still maintained their previous postures. August was standing upright while Currer was leaning against the desk in a very difficult posture.
From her perspective, August seemed to be preparing to do something to Currer, and the tension in Currer's eyes hadn't completely faded away.
The cold wind came in from the door, making the room even colder. Currer calmed down immediately.
She hastily stretched out her hand to push August away. After distancing herself from him, she hurriedly adjusted her dress. Such actions gave the feeling of someone being caught cheating.
"Lucia, don't get me wrong. I'm here to deliver materials to August. Now that I have delivered it, I will leave now." As she spoke, Currer hurriedly ran out of the living room with a blushing face. She didn't slow down until she disappeared from everyone's sight and let out a disdainful sneer at the Adams villa not far away.
She didn't believe that Lucia had no doubt when she saw her reaction just now.
Lucia's face was a little gloomy, and she didn't even look at August. She went straight to the bookshelf and took out a thick notebook.
These were the notes she had taken when she was studying abroad. The last time she and August went to live at the old place of Amecan, she had brought it back by the way. It was just that she hadn't expected to see such a disturbing scene when she came to find some old things.
"You've worked hard this afternoon. You'd better go upstairs to take a rest." August said lightly.
Lucia froze, and even her body became slightly stiff as if she hadn't expected him not to explain the scene just now.
She nodded a little angrily, and pretended to be relaxed, "HI move these things away in a while, and try not to disturb you next time."
August raised his eyebrows when he heard her words, and asked with a faint smile, "Are you jealous?"
He was right. She felt even more depressed. When she caught her cheating husband, her first reaction was not to make a scene and question him, but to be jealous secretly. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. But her tone was scarily calm, "A woman showed up at your door for free. I couldn't be happier. Why would I be jealous? Mr. Adams, you have a lot of money. Even if you go keep a whore, I would have no problem with it."
While she was talking casually, she flipped through her notebook and slowly turned around, but unexpectedly, she crashed directly into a firm embrace.
Before she could react, she was wrapped tightly by a familiar and cold fragrance, and his strong arms imprisoned her directly in front of the bookshelf.
There was restrained anger in August's voice, "Do you not care, or have you already found an alternative husband?"
The astonishment on Lucia's face was quickly replaced by anger. She raised her voice and asked coldly, "Are you trying to slander me?"
When she finished her words, August kissed her aggressively, as if he was venting some emotion. He ravaged her wet and soft lips.
