Chapter 840 Looking for August
When she saw August comforting Janet softly, complex emotions flashed across her eyes. After her eyes full of scrutiny wandered over him, she suddenly made up her mind and said in a serious voice, "August, come with me!"
Then, she walked into the living room, followed by August with a stern look. After they stared at each other for a few seconds, she looked away first and let out a long sigh, saying, "Mr. Adams, you must know Janet likes you very much.’
He responded seriously, "Yes."
Lucia stared at him intensely and said word by word, "No matter what your purpose of approaching her is, I hope you won't hurt her."
Hearing this, August steadily stopped his steps in front of her and said with an extremely serious expression, '1 promise I will guarantee the safety of your children no matter what happens."
Seeing his serious face, she somehow felt relieved, and an unexplained sense of security surged in her heart as if she trusted him unconditionally...
She was taken aback by her stupid thought. And when she looked into August's eyes again, she felt a little guilty, hurriedly looked away, and said in a muffled voice, *1 need you to do me a favor."
August looked sideways at her.
Janet needs someone to play the role of her father in her life. I hope you can accompany her for the time being. And then, we will slowly let her accept the fact that you are not her father."
After finishing her hesitant speech, she didn't dare to utter one more word for fear of hearing his refusal. Unexpectedly, the living room fell silent.
She then took a deep breath and continued, "I know this request is a bit impolite. So, it doesn't matter if you refuse..."
Before she could finish speaking, he said in a deep and steady voice, "I will try my best to act like a good father during this time.
Lucia's eyes lit up when she looked at him in surprise.
Seeing this, he teased with a half-smile, "Don’t you believe me? Do you think it's my trick to make use of your daughter?"
Lucia hurriedly shook her head as if she had not recovered from the shock just now. After a long time, she finally smiled, "Mr. Adams, I am willing to sign the contract. But I can't do it now..."
No hurry." He raised his eyebrows to pretend to be astonished. But Lucia could tell he was not surprised to hear her words because of the calm look in his eyes. However, she should thank him for taking care of Janet no matter what.
In a small two-story building halfway up the mountain, Currer tore up the documents she had just received and angrily threw them into the trash can.
Today, she had received another notice from the Trade Association that completely deprived her of her remaining rights because she had not behaved well recently. And the culprit who made her unable to behave herself was August whom she cared about the most.
