Chapter 826 You've Given Yourself Away!

Excuse me but I'm not interested in what you said." August got past Lucia straightly with an indifferent look. "Don't play the bluff to me. It wont work. I hate women with tricks."

Lucia gave a shudder and answered out of reflection, "I admit I used some tricks out of my own intention. But I've never intended to hurt you. All I ask is if you could come with me."

August halted and enquried with squinting eyes, For what reason should I believe a cunning woman like you?"

For this." Lucia strode up and presented him the wallet with both hands. Inside the wallet was a family photo where kids were grinning innocently and Lucia was smiling in the cuddle of a man, whose angular face was identical to August. The only difference, however, is the man in the photo was eyeing the woman in his arms with a fond and tender look, while August's eyes now were only brimful of aloofness and dislike.

Yet something ambiguous still flicked in August's eyes as he pinched the photo tighter. Conscious of the subtle reaction of his, Lucia asked with a wry smile, "My missing husband resembles you a lot, doesn't he?" She ignored August's silence and just went on, "I only hope you could help to visit my husband’s elder family. They miss him so much.'

August returned the wallet to her and finally nodded slowly after some consideration.

As a faint sneer of satisfaction crossed her face, Lucia couldn't help praising herself for her excellent acting which was way better than Janet's assessment and could even cheat the shrew eyes of August.

"I can only give you a morning for that trip. Just lead me there." August then got on the Maybach and became much laid back inside it, even keeping observing the driver closing. He then came with his conclusion coldly, "It's said in the business circle that Mr. Adams is in such fidelity that she's never thought of remarrying. But I guess she does have her smart plan, doesn't she?"

Noticing August was getting at the handsome young driver, Lucia burst into laughter. He's Burton's cousin.’ explained she. "As I sent Burton and Paula to another city for the business of the branch company, this young chap just came to take the place of Burton."

August didn't seem to intend to go on with the conversation, only turning his head to the views outside the window.

Lucia watched him with interest and finally sneered, August, you've given yourself away."

"You only see what you are allowed to see." His voice was so low as though explaining something, or just jeering her naivety.

Her smile froze. "Why didn't you ask me who Burton and Paula are?"

'1 don't care about that." his response was as indifferent as ever.

Lucia looked at him narrowly with the hope that she could locate some clue that could give his disguise away. Yet to her disappointment, he really appeared as nonchalant as he stated. If you really don't know me, why did you help me that night?" Lucia wouldn't give up probing, You know Reggio and you took the chip, that signifies you are well aware of its significance."
