Chapter 837 Unwilling to Meet Him

If you continue acting willfully, I will teach you a good lesson.1' Lucia took a deep breath, looked at him intensely, and said, "If you dare to approach my kids again, I will sue you for attempted abduction."

August raised his eyebrows and said with disdain on his face, ’ Really? Are you sure that you can win the lawsuit?"

"If I lose, I will appeal for a new trial. And I will not let you have a chance to get close to Janet."

She raised her head high and determined to fight him desperately, saying, The Lion Group is powerful in Austos, so it is easy for me to fight you. I don't believe you can win."

Hearing this, August moved his lips slightly, showed an enigmatical smile, and sneered, "I did not expect you to say such words. I thought you are an upright person.’

There's no need to be upright when dealing with people like you!" She glared at him, took Janet's hand angrily, and pulled her to leave the dining table.

When Janet kept up with her mother, she turned her head back to look at August with a hesitant expression from time to time. After he gave her a comforting look and shook his phone, she felt relieved and stepped up to catch up with her mother. Then, they walked out of the restaurant together.

The atmosphere in the car was a little gloomy. Lucia kept glancing out of the window, ignoring Janet. So, Janet bit the bullet, forced a flattering smile, and then reached out to hold her mother's arm, saying, "Mom, I should not have believed the bad uncle's nonsense. I know you're broad-minded. Please forgive me."

When Lucia heard her witty words, her face became less gloomy, but she still stubbornly pushed her hand away and responded with a snort.

Janet carefully observed her face. Remembering the conversation in the restaurant, she ventured, "Uncle August does want me to be the endorser. He didn't say anything irrelevant during the meal, so I did not guard against him."

Only then did Lucia turn her head to look at her precious daughter. Seeing her clear eyes and the innocent and pure expression on her immature face, she believed she was telling the truth, so she let out a long sigh. If it were Timothy, she wouldn't have been so worried.

She didn't want her two children to go the old path of her and August, so she tried her best to keep Janet's purity and cleanliness. She kept her out of the company's business and Griffith Organization's affairs because she hoped she could grow up carefreely. So, she couldn't tell her about August's ulterior motives or that the current situation was so dangerous that she might die at anytime.

Seeing Lucia's worried look, Janet felt more uncomfortable. She hurriedly threw herself into her arms and softly said with guilty and distress in her eyes, 'If you don't like him, I won't meet him anymore. I don't want to cause you any trouble."

Hearing this, Lucia felt even sadder. When she gently stroked Janet's hair, she wanted to tell her many things but felt a knot in her throat. Finally, she just let out a sigh.

When they returned to the Adams villa, Timothy was waiting in the living room. Unexpectedly, he didn't taunt Janet but looked at her with an enigmatical expression as if he had known everything.

Janet subconsciously avoided his gaze. She had never done anything without telling him before, so she felt guilty.

Janet..."

Hearing the sudden indifferent voice, Janet shuddered, subconsciously tucked her phone into her sleeve, looked at the speaker with a smile, and complained seemingly relaxedly, "Why did you suddenly call my name? You startled me!"
