August paused and promised, "Okay, we will come to see you if we have time."
After a few words of coaxing and persuasion, he hung up the phone.
Putting away the phone, August looked over at Lucia and said, "Grandma wants to see us at the old
house this afternoon.Do you want to go there?"
Lucia nodded without hesitation "Yes."
She knew how nice Grandma was to her.
It was a good idea to go and see the old lady since they had nothing to do in the afternoon.
After lunch, they briefly dressed up and went straight to the old house by car.
When they arrived at the gate of the old house, Lucia saw Grandma standing there with support and
waving at them as soon as she got out of the car Lucia was so touched that she immediately walked up
to the old lady Seeing her, Grandma immediately reached out to take her hand and asked her, "How
are you? Are you feeling better?"
Lucia smiled nicely, "My fever has gone.I’ll be fine after taking my medicine on time for a few days."
Heaning that, Grandma nodded with a smile and pulled her into the living room.
August followed behind them.
The look on his face eased up unconsciously.
"Lucia, I specially told them to prepare some tonic products, like bird’s nest and old ginseng.They are
all good for you.You can take them with you when you go back and tell Turner to cook them for you.You
need to get stronger these days."
Lucia had just sat down on the couch when she heard Grandma say that.She was both touched and
amused.
"I’m good, Grandma.You can keep them for yourself.I’m young and healthy.I don’t need them!"
"Of course, you do.You need to get stronger to have a baby!"
Lucia paused.
Only when she saw the meaningful smile on Grandma’s face did she realize what the old lady was
talking about.
Grandma reached out to take Lucia’s hand and smiled softly.
"Don’t be shy.Women have to go through this.You and August should work harder so that I can have a
grandson sooner!"
Hearing that, Lucia subconsciously raised her eyes to look at August who was sitting opposite her.
She felt a warm blush rise to her cheeks and even to her ears.
Noticing her eyes, Grandma turned to August and said in a seemingly serious manner, "Did you hear
what I just said, August? Give me a grandson as soon as possible!"
August frowned.
At last, he curved his lips into a smile and answered, "No problem, Grandma."
When she heard his promise, Grandma smiled happily and held Lucia’s hand tighter.
"The Adams family is 1 counting on you, Lucia."
Looking at the expectation in her eyes, Lucia shyly nodded her head.
They called and gossiped a lot with Grandma.
When it was getting late, Grandma had boxes of tonic products taken out and stuffed into the trunk of
their car before she would let them go.
In the car, all Lucia could think about was what Grandma had said to her about the baby The car went
down the road.
After a while, August couldn’t help but clear his throat when he saw that the woman beside him just
stared blankly without saying a word.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lucia reacted with a start and her cheeks flushed.
"No-nothing."
However, that only made what she was thinking about more obvious.
August looked at her red face and said, "Don’t take what Grandma said seriously I won’t force you."
Although he didn’t make it clear, Lucia could tell what he was talking about.
It was definitely about having a baby Lucia bit her lip, held her hands together tighter, and gathered the
courage to speak, "Actually, I won’t reject"
Now that she was his wife, the daughter-in-law of the Adams family, it was only natural for her to have
a baby with him to carry on his family name.
August’s grip on the steering wheel tightened.
His face suddenly became more serious and he didn’t say anything for a while.
Lucia didn’t notice that She was too shy to go on with the topic.
After a moment, August’s phone rang, which was connected to the Bluetooth in the car.
Lucia glanced at the display screen and saw that the number was marked with the capital letter "P"
August took a glance, raised his hand, and hung up directly Lucia was a bit puzzled and asked, "Why
don’t you answer it?"
August said in a deep voice, "It’s about business.I’ll call back later.It doesn’t matter."
Hearing that, Lucia nodded and stopped thinking about it.
Back at the house, August got out of the car.
After having Turner take the tonic products away, he stood in the courtyard, picked up his phone, and
made a call.
"Peter, what’s up?"
"My team is ready.Mr.Adams.We can operate anytime when Miss Lytton is okay.The information of the
kidney donor that you found needs to be confirmed as soon as possible in case something else
happens.
When August heard that, his grip on the phone tightened a bit.
He paused for a few seconds before he said,"Okay, I’ll let you know after confirmation."
"Okay."
After the call, August felt a bit stressed as if a large stone had suddenly been placed on his shoulders.
He stepped into the door and once inside, he saw Turner and Lucia busy putting the tonic products
away.
Turner said something.
Lucia smiled with a blush, looking shy and cute.
Looking at her from a distance, August was even more torn inside.
He had his purpose for dating and marrying her in the first place.
He knew that he would have to tell her the truth sooner or later, but he found it hard to do so in the face
of such a woman.
Lucia saw that August had stood at the door for a while, She couldn’t help but walk up and ask, "Why?
What’s wrong?"
August knitted his brows and said softly, "I have something to tell you."
Lucia tilted her head and smiled sweetly at him.
"Go ahead."
Looking at the woman with such a smile in front of him, August moved his lips and found himself at a
loss as to what to say The man didn’t say anything for a while and he looked even gloomier.
Seeing that, Lucia frowned and asked with concern, "What’s wrong? Do you feel sick?"
With that, she naturally reached out and touched his forehead to check his heat while murmuring.
"Did you get a cold, too?"
Somehow, August found her hand burning hot on his forehead.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
Lucia was startled, "What… what’s wrong?"
August was silent for a moment before he said softly, "Nothing."
Lucia felt a little strange, but she didn’t ask him about it anymore.
Thinking of what he had said earlier, she asked in a soft voice, "What were you trying to tell me?"
With the look in his eyes easing up, August said, "Nothing special.It will be the Founding Day of the
company in a few days.The senior management has decided to give everyone two days off to go out
for team-building activities."
When it came to the Founding Day, Lucia naturally thought of the team-building activities they had had
in the last couple of years, like climbing mountains and so on, which were not that fun, but rather
exhausting.
Lucia lowered her eyes and muttered, "It’s not mountain climbing again, is it?"
"No, it’s at the Lakeside Manor in the countryside."
"The Lakeside Manor?"
Lucia instantly got interested when she heard that.
She was a little excited and subconsciously reached out to hold August by the arm.
"Will you come along with us?"
