Lucia froze and casually excused herself, ’A friend..."
A cold light crossed August’s eyes.
Just now when Lucia answered the phone, although he did not hear clearly, but also knew the caller
was a man.
Plus, seeing Lucia’s unusual reaction, he could almost in front of the company last time, and for some
reason he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Turning his head and seeing Lucia’s red face, August tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
He raised an eyebrow and asked in a cold voice, "Boyfriend?"
Even he didn’t notice the slightest imperceptible impatience in his tone.
"No..."
Like being seen through, Lucia blushed and hastily spoke to deny it.
She and Paul were just friends now, not like what he said...
August at her side seemed to grunt coldly, his voice low and deep, with a few invisible intimidations,
"You are not allowed to have a boyfriend."
Lucia was startled, and thought she had heard wrong, "What?"
After a long time without waiting for his answer, she turned her head and saw the man’s upright nose
and taut jaw.
He turned the steering wheel with one hand, Noticing the fiery gaze of the woman beside him, August
turned his head slightly and gave her a faint look, "Haven’t you seen enough?"
After a pause, Lucia reacted violently and hurriedly averted her gaze.
With her cheeks hot, she denied it with a pout, "Who’s seeing you..."
It didn’t take long for them to arrive at the Adams Family’s old house.
As soon as they parked the car, Lucia immediately pushed open the car door and got out.
A little flushed, Lucia patted her cheeks and took a few deep breaths to clear her head before walking
with August towards the door.
As soon as she entered the door, Lucia saw Grandma sitting on the couch.
Hearing the sound, Grandma looked up.
When she saw Lucia, her eyes lit up and she stood up in surprise, "Lucia, what are you doing here..."´
Seeing August beside Lucia, she was even more puzzled.
Lucia immediately walked up as soon as she was excited, "Grandma, I heard that you were sick, so I
wanted to come and see you."
Compared to the last time she met her, Grandma had almost lost a round of weight, and in just a few
days, she felt that her mental state was not as good as worry..."
"You can just come and see me more often..."
Her Grandma pulled Lucia to sit down and ordered the maid to prepare fruits and refreshments,
completely hanging her grandson, August to the side.
Looking at August, who was still standing aside, Lucia the health of the elderly to be angry.
Lucia raised her hand and gently patted her grandma’s back, gently persuading her.
"Lucia, you don’t have to speak for him!"
Grandma gave August a look and grunted in exasperation, "I’ll pretend I don’t have this grandson!"
Looking up at the silent August, Lucia took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and spoke, "Grandma,
don’t be angry and August has apologized to me.
I...
I decided to give him a second chance..."
It’s a lie, but Grandma was very weak now.
Anyway, she just wanted to hide it from her first because she couldn’t just watch Grandma stay angry.
Once she heard Lucia say this, Grandma instantly came to life.
She looked at Lucia and then looked up at August,/You mean...
you can remarry?"
Lucia forced a smile, "Well, Grandma finally got a smile on her face, "Yes...
yes! Lucia, it’s right for you to that it was almost time to eat, she immediately ordered the maids to
prepare dinner.
"Lucia, eat more and I especially instructed the chef to cook what you like!"
Looking at the table of her favorite dishes, Lucia felt warm in her heart.
Then she quickly picked up the serving fork and gave her grandmother a piece of fish, "Grandma, eat
the fish!"
"Okay!"
Grandma was full of joy and answered repeatedly.
Suddenly, August picked up his fork and put a piece of pork ribs on Lucia’s plate.
Lucia was stunned and did not react Ever since she met August, he had never picked dishes for her or
made similar intimate gestures toward her.
Was he just putting on a that, Lucia got goosebumps, unconsciously blushed, and nodded sluggishly.
Grandma, who saw their actions and reactions, had a smile in her eyes.
Looking at Lucia, she couldn’t be more satisfied with her.
At the end of the dinner, the atmosphere was much more relaxed than at the beginning.
After staying for a while, August suggested that it was time for them to leave.
Before leaving, Grandma reluctantly held also some sorrow, "Grandma, you do not worry and I will visit
you often."
Grandma nodded and hugged Lucia before finally letting go.
There was a silence in the carriage on the way back, and Lucia didn’t feel good when she thought of
Grandma’s gaze.
She took a deep breath and said softly, "I think...
we shouldn’t lie to Grandma."
At that, August was silent for a moment and said lightly, "Recently she is not well and her emotions
cannot fluctuate too much, so we can only hide it from her first, and slowly talk to her later."
He knew best that the elderly were most likely to have health problems.
Now there was no other better way and he could only coax Grandma first.
Lucia’s small expression, August had some mixed feelings.
"By the way."
August thought of something, frowned tightly, and ordered in a deep voice, "This week, you have to be
more careful when you work under Ted.
Don’t have any contact with him except for business affairs.
If anything happens, call me.
Understand?"
Ted was a sophisticated old fox.
So far, he hadn’t guessed what Ted was playing for, so he was worried that Lucia who was like a little
white rabbit would be at a disadvantage.
The moment when a chill at the back of her head, asking tentatively, "Do you have any issues with
him?"
