Chapter 918 Certainly I Won't Go Back On My Promise To
You
Lucia and Daryl almost knew who August meant at once when August finished his sentence. Timothy had always been a skilled hacker, so he could easily solve the problem. August put the damaged USB drive back into the box, saying, "We’ve exposed ourselves, so it’s impossible for us to win the trust of Marlena again. We’d rather go back to Austos City and make other plans than waste time here." He added, "Besides, it’s not safe for Ryan to stay here any longer as he’s also an inheritor of the Smith family. He would be in great danger if being caught by Marlena."
Pondering over it for a moment, Lucia agreed with August on his suggestion that they’d better go back to Austos and rest, though she was so upset about the failure of this plan. Lucia nodded, "You’re right. We’ll go back." "Daryl, what do you think?" Lucia looked at Daryl. Though Daryl had promised to go back to Austos City with them after the whole thing here was solved, Lucia couldn't help but confirm it again. Nodding at Lucia, Daryl said with a smile, "Certainly I won’t go back on my promise to you."
Daryl had mentioned it to Mrs. Robert earlier that she would go back to Austos City when the whole thing here was over. Their mission here had yet to be completed, but going back now was still a good choice. And the most important thing was...
Heaving a sigh heavily, Daryl looked worried, "Well, I’m also worried about Paula. I do wanna go back and have a check on her." Paula had accompanied her when she was having a hard time. So, Paula was as important as Lucia for Daryl. Now Paula was sick, so she couldn't sit back without doing anything. Hearing Daryl, Lucia also looked worried. Paula relapsed to her sickness, and they had lost contact with her for quite a while. So, they didn’t know how Paula was now.
Stepping towards Lucia, August put his arm around her shoulder and said in a low voice, "We'd better set out now." Lucia didn't reply to August but turned to look at Ryan. She said to him in a soft voice, "Ryan, would you like to go with us? You'll have two elder brothers and a sister with you if you're willing to go to Austos City with us." Ryan was hesitating. He did like Lucia and Daryl, as well as August. August looked indifferent, but he was so different from those who were from the Smith family. He treated him well.
Ryan had grown up in the Smith Manor and never seen the outside world. It was the first time that he had left the manor. It was such a short time, but he
felt free. Ryan knew it clearly that he could entirely cut off his connection with the Smith family forever as long as he left here with Lucia and Daryl. Thinking of that, Ryan looked decisive and nodded heavily towards Lucia. "Poch..." Ryan called Poch by its name.
Lucia felt so pleased when Ryan agreed to go to Austos City with them. She reached out her hand and pinched Ryan's face softly with a smile, "Rest assured. We'll take Poch with us for sure." Ryan heaved a sigh of relief. Later, they said goodbye to Mrs. Robert while she specially sent someone to book the earliest flight for them. Besides, Mrs. Robert also saw them off to the car to the airport in person. She said to them, "I intended to send you back by a private plane, but it needs to be reported to the aviation department in advance, which will be less convenient than taking a flight."
