In the car, Lucia fastened her seat belt.
Next to her, August pushed down the handbrake to start the car.
Watching that, she couldn’t help but ask, "What did my father tell you in the ward just now?"
It would be a lie to say that she was not curious.
She had been holding this question until she asked it now. August steered the car without stopping.
He didn’t even turn around as he asked lightly, "You want to know?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, Lucia nodded, "Yes."
The car started to run slowly down the road.
August didn’t say anything for quite a while as if he was deliberately whetting Lucia’s appetite. "He told me to keep an eye on you." She was confused.
"What?" How? August turned to look at her without blinking.
"You can’t mess around with any other man or jump ship at will.
He told me to protect you." Obviously, Lucia refused to believe it.
"That’s impossible!"
What kind of request was that? Why did it sound like a request from August himself? can go and ask your father." Hearing that, Lucia was instantly discouraged.
Actually, she didn’t dare to ask Mr.telling the truth, it would be quite embarrassing. Lucia clenched the corner of her clothes.
It took her quite a while to calm down.
She turned to August and said in a consultative tone, "Actually, you don’t need to take so much trouble.
Just leave me alone, and I won’t give you any trouble."
August didn’t even think about it before he said, "No way.
I have to do what Mr.Mitchell told me to do."
He sounded resolute, without any room for negotiation.
Lucia grimaced at his words.
She had decided to get rid of August for freedom, but now she thought that he would have an even better reason to control her.
Gritting her teeth, Lucia was so angry that she was unable to say anything for quite a while. was so When the car was about to cross one more intersection and reach the entrance of the company, Lucia suddenly called for a stop.
"Stop.I’ll get out here."
She didn’t want to get out of his car at the entrance of the company.
If any of her colleagues saw it, it would be hard for her to explain. August frowned at her words, but he still pulled over to the curb. Thank you for driving me to the hospital today." With that, Lucia turned to push the door open and get out of the car. August stopped her.
"Wait a minute."
"What is it?"
"It’s the 70th birthday of Old Mr.Greeves in Austos City on Sunday.The Greeves family and the Lion Group have had a lot of cooperation, so they gave our company some invitations to his birthday party | saved one for you, so you can go and have a look."
Hearing that, Lucia hesitated as she was a little puzzled. As if he had expected that she would feel puzzled, August lowered his voice and said word by word, "Ted Lucia immediately understood what he meant when she heard his words.
The look in her eyes became serious and she nodded hastily, "Okay, I’ll go." Last time, August had made it clear to her that the first step to take down Ted was to get him and his Although she didn’t know what the next step he mentioned was, she knew that only by taking action would it be possible to meet her expectations. Lucia got out of the car, closed the door behind her, and stepped towards the sidewalk nearby. The car slowly moved away from the curb.
Not far away, a man hid behind a tree, checking the pictures he had just taken of Lucia getting out of the car. his head, and left quickly unconsciously as she looked at the pictures on the phone in her hands. If she hadn’t seen the pictures with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have believed that August really had another woman with him! but August explained to her back then. had it investigated.
It was a woman named Lucia, who worked at the Lion Group.
Therefore, she sent someone to follow Lucia for a few days, and to her surprise, the woman actually had an unusual relationship with August! Jeanne clenched her phone so tight that her knuckles turned slightly white.
Beads of blood emerged from her lower lip when she bit it hard before she knew it She had thought that after the kidney replacement surgery, she would be able to live happily with August, NOS only to find that a woman had hooked up with August while she was sick.
Could she put up with this? No.She had to do something! She wouldn’t allow August to be taken away, not even if there were a hundred or a thousand Lucia’s, let alone one! Back in the company, Lucia started to work on her task at hand.

"I’m going to the Finance Department with a form.With that, Emma reached out, pulled Lucia to the side and said in a lowered voice, "I have something to tell you, Lucia." Seeing her serious face, Lucia became serious too.
"What is it?" "I saw that Irene came to our department today.She came over to Lisa and they whispered for quite a while, mysteriously.When I went to fetch water and passed by them, I vaguely heard them talking about your name, but I didn’t hear the details." Lucia hesitated upon hearing that. that she and Lisa will do something to you together Lucia paused when she heard that.
Finally, she raised her eyes to Emma and curved her lips.
"I see, Emma.Thank you for telling me." Emma smiled at her and said softly, "You are welcome.I just can’t stand to see them bully you."
"Well, just go and deliver your form.I’ll take care of that." Lucia’s heart sank as she watched Emma leave. Irene had always been targeting her, which she knew very well, and Lisa also had a problem with her.
If the two of them teamed up against her, she might not have the ability to fight back. Besides, Irene was the one who secretly took pictures of her and Ted and sent them to Mrs.Stebbing last But now, she had no evidence and couldn’t do anything about it, so she had to be as wary as possible She took a deep breath and stepped away. two days in a row.

She raised her eyes to glance at it and paused when she saw the special initials on it. For fear of being seen by others when August contacted her, she had purposely marked his number with initials In the past two days, she and August hadn’t seen each other much.
Now that he sent her a message of his own accord, was he going to make a move?
