Chapter 839 The Importance of Father
After taking a few steps forward, she suddenly noticed something. When stopping her steps, she looked ahead and met Janet's watery big eyes. Looking at her sneaky movements, Janet asked curiously, Mom, why did you come out of Uncle August's bedroom?"
Lucia was at a loss for words, not knowing how to reply. Now she wished she could find a crack in the ground and hide inside. Janet was the person she least wanted to find out about this matter. Yesterday, she had asked her to cut off the contact with August because he had bad intentions. So, after Janet saw such a scene early in the morning, it would be hard for Lucia to build up her prestige in front of her in the future. Lucia felt so regretful that she didn’t even notice August walking up to them.
August stroked Janet's head affectionately and patiently explained in a deep voice. Your mother was too tired last night, so she fell asleep in the guest bedroom. I slept on the sofa in the living room."
Standing together, August and Janet looked like real loving father and daughter.
But Lucia's cheeks were burning, so she was not in the mood to appreciate the loving scene at all. And she had wanted to step forward and kick August out of the house when he had deliberately accented the word "tired".
Janet nodded obediently without doubts and said, "I'll ask Turner to prepare another bedroom tonight. Sleeping on the sofa is bad for your spine."
When Lucia heard this, her expression became even more embarrassed and furious, and she secretly blamed Janet for not helping her mother.
But August and Janet ignored her gloomy face. She soon took his hand and led him to the dining room because Turner had cooked his favorite food in the past.
August was very satisfied with the meal, and Janet beamed with joy when saying proudly as if asking for credit, I specially asked Turner to cook the dishes! They are my father's favorite.1'
"Your father's taste is similar to mine..." August slightly lowered his voice as if thinking about something.
Janet nodded in agreement, "Maybe you are my father."
Lucia happened to hear this sentence when entering the dining room. She had made a painstaking effort to calm down but flew in into a rage again now. So, she reprimanded angrily, "Janet, don't talk nonsense! Uncle August has a girlfriend."
It was an indisputable fact that he was on Currer's side now.
Hearing this, Janet pursed her lips and fell silent with an aggrieved expression on her immature face, making Lucia more comfortable.
Things could not go on like this. Lucia frowned in silence, but the gloom in her eyes did not dissipate.
After breakfast, August took Janet out of the dining room as if they were very close to each other. Seeing this, Lucia became upset again, following behind them closely.
Seeing her anxious face, August smiled faintly. Then, he teased with a half-smile, "Are you afraid I will steal your daughter at your home?"
Lucia couldn't help rolling her eyes at him and nodded, "Yes."
"In this case, you'd better keep a close eye..."
