Chapter 809 You Are Exceptional

"You’re back?" Lucia rubbed her eyes and asked subconsciously as she got up. Did you have dinner?"

August nodded. "Why are you sleeping here?"

Lucia picked up the notebook on the floor and chuckled. '1 was going to review it, but I fell asleep within a few minutes."

The pottery on the table wobbled as the notebook brushed against it.

"No!" Lucia screamed, catching the pottery before it fell on the floor. She breathed a long sigh of relief. It took me a long time to put it back together!’ she complained as she handed it to August.

August raised his eyebrows at the "family of four" snuggled together in her hand. His mood changed for the better and he couldn't resist teasing her, ’ Did you make it?"

Lucia was angry with August when she was making the pottery so she took it for him. She called herself stupid every time she saw it. She could only avert her eyes and make an excuse, "It was one of Timothy and Janet's birthday presents. The three of us made it together."

August didn't believe it, but he took the pottery and placed it in the middle of his desk. "I like this present." His lips curled into a smile.

Lucia's face suddenly felt hot as if she had been caught in a lie. She looked up stubbornly. Who cares? It belongs to Timothy and Janet."

August didn't retort but looked closely at the pottery and said slowly, ' They're better than this."

"Is he saying it’s ugly?’ Lucia frowned and was about to retort when she felt a firm grip around her waist. Before she knew it, her face was pressed against August's hot chest.

The perfume on her hair went up August's nose. He could even feel her body stiffen. Subconsciously, he tightened his arms around her. Her soft body relaxed his nerves that had been tense for days. He leaned over and put his head on her neck to smell her.

Lucia's mind kept blank for a long time. She remembered them arguing the last time they were together in the study. A lot of things had happened recently.

August was not a machine. He must be feeling tired. With this in mind, she put her thin arms around his waist and asked softly, ' Is there something tricky?"

'Yes,’ August whispered, and I don't know how to handle it."

Lucia's words had been ringing in his head for the past few days. He couldn't calm down no matter how much he worked. He thought Lucia understood everything, but it proved that she was never impressed by him.

Lucia thought he was talking about work and encouraged him, "You're the pride of Timothy and Janet and the spine of Lion Group. You're capable of handling anything."
