In the ward, the two men looked at each other.
It was terribly quiet at the moment.
Finally, August opened his mouth to break the strange atmosphere.
"What can I do for you, Mr.Mitchell?"
Mr.Mitchell gazed at him and sighed as his pale lips moved.
"As best doctor for you..."
Before August could finish his words, Mr.Mitchell slowly raised his hand, gesturing for August to stop
talking don’t need to do that.
Now the only one I’m worried about is Lucia." With that, he raised his eyes and looked at August with
mixed feelings. He had married his beloved daughter to August, who was one of his best students, and
thought that they would get along well, but unexpectedly... A hint of guilt flickered in August’s eye.
He raised his eyes to look at Mr.Mitchell, took a deep breath and said, "I’m sorry, Mr.Mitchell, but I
didn’t do what I promised you." Mr.Mitchell shook his head.
"All couples don’t remain together till the end of their lives.However, I still hope that you can take care
of Lucia for me.It would be best if you two can get back together.If not, I won’t force you, but I hope you
can at least help her once in a while as a friend." and that August obviously had the ability to protect
her. his face changed slightly when August heard that.
He quickly said, "Don’t worry, Mr.Mitchell.I know what to do."
He had already owed a lot to Lucia.
Moreover, he was her ex-husband.
This request from Mr.Mitchell was not too much.
Mr.Mitchell’s eyes glinted.
"You’ll...take care of her for me?"
August curved his lips and reassured him, "Yes, I will.Get well soon, Mr.Mitchell.Don’t worry."
Hearing his promise, Mr.Mitchell was secretly relieved.He nodded his head repeatedly with tears in his
eyes.
"I knew I was right in believing you." He could only rest assured when he left Lucia with August
Meanwhile, Lucia was pacing
"Can’t you keep calm, Lucia?"
Lucia frowned, feeling uneasy.
"Do you think Dad would say something he shouldn’t say to August, Mom?"
Mrs.Mitchell immediately asked, "So what if he would? Anyway, you’re divorced now.What else do you
have to worry about?"
Heaning that, Lucia froze Mrs Mitchell was right.She and August were divorced now, so she had
nothing else to worry about still love him? Those words made Lucia’s cheeks burn and she felt a bit
sheepish in her heart. After a few seconds, she raised her voice deliberately and said, "Of course
not.How can I love him? I’m divorced from him!"
No sooner had she finished her words than the door of the ward suddenly opened with a click, and
Lucia froze After a moment, she immediately turned around and met August’s deep, dark eyes
He frowned slightly and his face darkened visibly Apparently, he had heard what she said just now! At
that moment Lucia wanted to find a hole to hide in’ It was so embarrassing!
August’s eyes lingered on her briefly before his face turned back to normal He gently closed the door of
the ward behind him and looked at Mrs Mitchell.
"Mr Mitchell has just fallen asleep, Mrs Mitchell If there is nothing else, I will leave now Mrs.Mitchell
nodded and looked at Lucia, saying.
"You can leave as well.You have to work in the afternoon, and I’ll stay here alone with your father’ up
the idea and say, "Well then, I’ll come back to visit Dad some other time, Mom Mrs.Mitchell waved her
hand.
Just go ahead Lucia followed August.
The two of them entered the elevator, one after the other, without speaking to each other with their
children, instantly filling up the whole elevator Lucia was squeezed into a corner.
Next to her was a middle aged man with a big belly.
His beer belly came right up against her side, touching her hand, and the man grinned at her with his
teeth bared Lucia felt uncomfortable and shrunk as far as possible to the corner, but the middle-aged
man followed and moved closer to her She frowned, not expecting to get groped in the hospital
elevator Just when she didn’t know what to do. a hand suddenly reached out next to her and gently
held her shoulder Following that, August pushed his way through the people around and got right in
front of her With her back to the corner Lucia was blocked by August in front of her Seeing that, the
middle aged man touched his nose in embarrassment and stopped trying to move close Face to face,
Lucia and August were so close to each other that she could not only smell the faint scent of fragrance
but also feel his body heat through the thin fabric of his clothes onto her forehead, where she felt itchy,
tingly and hot. It was the first time that she had been so close to August face to face. Before Lucia
knew it, there was a slight flush on her cheeks and her breath was hot. said quickly, "I didn’t say
anything!"
She hadn’t expected at the time that he would happen to hear what she said.
She felt like she had done something wrong and been caught directly by the person affected.
Seeing her reaction, August raised his eyebrows.
"Really?"
He had heard it clearly and kept it in mind.
The man drawled as he said the word, with some lingering charm.
Lucia’s heart skipped a beat and started pounding involuntarily.
Finally, the elevator reached the first floor.
At the sound of a "ding", Lucia breathed a long sigh of relief.
Out of the elevator, Lucia followed August diagonally, not too far away from or close to him, and kept
half a step slower.
She was still wondering until they got to the entrance of the hospital if she should forward and suddenly
noticed that the woman was not following him.
He stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her.
Lucia took a deep breath.
She stepped forward, met his gaze and gathered her courage to say, "You can leave without me if you
have something else to do.
I’ll go back to the company by taxi."
August said in a cold voice, "I’m going back to the company." Hearing that, Lucia was still hesitant. take
my car?"
Lucia froze.
The look on her face changed quickly.
"Of course...I do!"
