Chapter 390Chapter 390 She Offered to Give him Some Hush Money Burton's face changed slightly.
After a pause of two seconds, he said slowly, "I heard everything."
When Paula heard his words, her face changed in fright, "You mean..."
Burton took a deep breath and said, "Timothy and Janet are August's flesh and blood."
Hearing Burton's words, Paula froze in place for a long time.
She hadn't thought that Burton knew everything! When Burton knew it, it meant that August was about
to know it too! Thinking of this, Paula panicked! She knew well how Lucia had survived the past five
years.
If this secret that they had kept for five years was suddenly revealed, something bad would happen!
She gritted her teeth, suddenly thought of something, and raised her head quickly.
When she saw Burton, a dim light suddenly flashed in her eyes.
She immediately stepped forward, reached out, and grabbed Burton's arm.
She gritted her teeth and was ready to fight against him to the end, "Don't go! You're not going today!"
Seeing that Paula's face suddenly changed, and she held his arm and refused to let go, Burton couldn't
help smiling.
He felt amused and asked, "Why?"
Paula grabbed his arm tightly and said hysterically, "You know why! Burton, you are so despicable! You
were hiding in the corner and eavesdropping on people! You're not a gentleman at all.""If you dare to tell others, I won't go easy on you!"
"Did you hear me?! You're going to keep it to yourself, and you can't tell anyone!"
Hearing her threat, Burton smiled even more.
Why did he think it was interesting? "Burton! I'm talking to you!"
Seeing that Burton didn't respond for a long time, Paula suddenly became angry.
But Burton was born with a poker face and he always looked so cold.
Paula thought that he was inhumane and he couldn't accept what she had said just now! Thinking of
this, Paula suddenly wanted to cry.
But for Lucia's future happiness as well as for Timothy and Janet, she must find a way to stop this!
Paula gritted her teeth and make up her mind.
Her expression softened a bit when she looked at Burton again, and her voice was a bit more polite,
"Burton, name your price."
At this time, money didn't matter.
If she could pay Burton to keep quiet, this was what she should do the most.
But Burton raised his eyebrows when he heard her words.
He lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Do you think I love money so much?"
Paula took a deep breath and forced herself to be patient.She raised her eyes, looked at Burton, and said in a serious tone, "Well, what do you want? As long as
I can do it, I will try my best to satisfy you if you agree!"
Burton's heart tightened when he heard it.
Looking at Paula's pink cheeks and lips, he felt tempted and hesitated.
Paula didn't notice the abnormality and continued, "Anyway, it's not the first time you've done this kind
of thing.
Please help me this time.
Just name your price!"
Burton swallowed and said, "Are you serious?"
Paula raised her eyes to meet his and said, "Yes!"
} The next second, she was pushed to the wall on the side, and her eyes suddenly darkened.
She raised her eyes and saw Burton's bright and firm eyes and firm chin line.
Her heart tightened, and she was inexplicably flustered.
"You..."
Before she finished her settence, Burton lowered his head and kissed her lips forcefully.
Paula immediately froze, and her mind went blank.
But soon, a fiery heat hit Fer, burning inside her.Burton's kiss was somewhat anxious and domineering, passing over her lips, brushing her cheeks, and
moving to her ear.
His voice was hoarse and deep, mixed with masculinity, "What I want is you."
Like a beam of electricity, his words instantly rushed into Paula's ear and she shivered.
Before she could react, her earlobe was kissed by him.
At that moment, her knees instantly felt weak...
Soon, the flame in her body was completely ignited, and previous thoughts and desires swept in
together.
She opened her arms and wrapped them around Burton's neck directly.
At this moment, she wanted to be with him, no matter what...
Suddenly, a bell rang.
Paula shivered and stopped.
A few seconds later, she regained her senses and woke up almost instantly.
She quickly let go, took a few steps back, and quickly covered the collar of her shirt that was just
unbuttoned.
Burton's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse, "Paula..."
Paula gritted her teeth and said, "Burton, if you dare to tell others about Lucia, I won't go easy on you!"
With that, she quickly adjusted her clothes, pushed open the door, and fled.The door slammed shut.
Burton stood in the room with a sense of depression in his heart.
When did he and Paula reach this point? Finally, he sighed, opened the door, and walked out.
He would listen to Paula and keep this secret for the time being.
At the same time, Lucia was pacing back and forth in the corridor in the hall, feeling a little uneasy in
her heart.
She had missed a call from Elisa because of her showdown with Jeanne just now.
When she called back, no one answered.
After thinking about it, she finally took a deep breath and walked to the bathroom.
Two minutes later, she walked to the sink in the bathroom to wash her hands.
When she raised her eyes inadvertently, she suddenly found that there were two more figures at the
door.
It was the two women she had seen with Jeanne on the balcony just now.
They folded their arms and stared straight at her through the mirror with inexplicable mocking smiles on
their faces.
Lucia turned a blind eye to it.
She washed her hands calmly, picked up the paper napkin next to her, dried her hands, and walked
towards the door.But the two women who were blocking the door had no intention of getting out of the way.
Lucia's face was cold and she said expressionlessly, "Please let me go."
"What if we don't?"
novelbin"Who do you think you are to ask us to make way?"
They kept mocking Lucia.
It was clear that they were deliberately trying to embarrass her.
Lucia didn't care much about it.
She smiled, turned to look around, and finally saw the infographic posted on the wall.
The picture showed the phone number of the lobby manager of Austos International, and other
emergency measures reminders.
Lucia took out her mobile phone seemingly casually, shook it at the two women at the door, and said
softly, "It seems that I can only ask the lobby manager to come over.
Their door is too narrow, and I can't get through..."
With that, she blinked.
Just as she was about to make a call, one of the women questioned her, "What do you want to do?"
Lucia tilted her head and smiled at them, "I'm calling the manager and asking him to send someone to
open the door wider."
Immediately, the faces of the two women darkened a little.They looked at each other, and a woman stepped back reluctantly to make some room.
Lucia smiled.
She didn't say anything, put away her phone, and walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the door, the two women behind her looked at each other.
One of them caught up with Lucia, looked at the hem of her dress, raised her foot, and stepped on it
hard!
