“Then who did this..."
Lucia took a deep breath.
She didn’t know how to tell her best friend about what had happened.
After all, she had hidden her relationship with August from Paula since the very beginning.
"Let’s talk about it later, Paula."
Lucia wiped her tears, forced a smile, and changed the subject.
"Didn’t we agree to meet at the airport? Why did you come back by yourself?"
Paula said frantically.
"Just now my brother sent me a message that something happened to you and you’re in the hospital.
I Why don’t you take her back to your apartment for a rest? We can talk about it later."
Hearing this, Paula nodded as an afterthought.
Then, she turned to Lucia and asked, "So...
Lucia, do you want to go to my place now?"
Lucia hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Yes."
At this point, she had just found an apartment to rent and hadn’t had arm.
Now that Paula was back, it was best for her to stay with Paula for a few days.
Paul drove them to the entrance of the neighborhood where Paula’s bachelor pad was.
He You can leave now, Paul.
I have to talk with Lucia.
We’ll meet you again some other time!"
She was so full of questions that she wanted to ask Lucia right away, but because her brother was still here, she had to hold all her questions back.
Lucia turned around just as Paul got out of the car.
The two of them looked at each other, curved their lips, and nodded.
She knew in her mind that she and Paul hadn’t reached the point when she could tell him everything.
In contrast, she would prefer to tell her best friend about it.
Noticing Lucia’s gaze, Paula tsked and teased her.
"Oh, my! Stop looking! Or else, you can go with my brother instead of coming with me!"
Lucia was both angry and amused.
"Stop talking like that, Paula."
She and Paul were friends at best now.
Their relationship had not yet developed into anything more than that.
"Okay, I won’t tease you anymore!"
The expression on Paula’s face changed and suddenly became much more serious.
She reached out to take Lucia’s left hand, which was not injured, and her tone was quite serious.
"Lucia, I know you are hiding something from me!"
They had known each other for so many years.
She could tell what it meant from Lucia’s expression.
"I do have something...hidden from you."
Lucia felt guilty.
"Let’s talk about it when we get back."
This small bachelor pad was located near the downtown area.
Paula bought it when she ran away from home after a fight with Old Mr.Thomas to avoid a blind date.
She went abroad later, and the apartment was kept.
A few days ago, Paul got a cleaner to clean it up and stuffed the fridge, so she could live there as soon as she got in.
Inside the apartment, Paula the couch with a questioning look.
"Tell me, Lucia, what exactly did you do behind my back?"
Lucia took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.
"It...started with Mrs.Mitchell urging me to go on a blind date."
She began to tell the whole story.
Next to her, Paula felt like she was listening to a tale and her expression changed dramatically several times.
She found it quite jaw-dropping when she heard that Lucia and August had gotten married.
"You didn’t tell me when you got married, Lucia! Huh!"´ Seeing Paula’s reaction, Lucia couldn’t help but force a smile.
"I didn’t think about it that much at the time."
"And then what? Tell me what happened!"
Lucia took a deep breath and told Paula all that had happened between her and August."
At the end of the story, Paula was angry and annoyed. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
She crushed her empty can with one hand and huffed, "Who does August think he is? Not only did he marry you for his purposes, but he also interferes with your life after the divorce!"
Lucia felt sad at her words.
Why did he do that to her today when he had no feelings for her? She had just gathered her courage and made up her mind to start a new life, but he put her in an awkward situation again by doing that.
The thought of that made her nose twitch and tears welled up in her eyes.
Paula was indignant.
"If you ask me, Lucia, you’re just so easy to bully! August is a scumbag! He should apologize to you for the divorce! Don’t let him get away with it?"
As she spoke, she turned to see the face with the back of her hand, "You’re...driving me mad!"
If she were at home back Lucia to be bullied so far! "It has nothing to do with you, Paula."
Lucia took a deep breath to calm herself down and said, "I just didn’t expect that I would end up in such trouble one day."
Paula at the Lion Group without meeting him or getting entangled with him!"
Lucia froze at her words and thought she had a point.
If she really wanted to start a new life, she should get a new job, so that she could be completely over with August.
Out of sight, out of mind.
It would be better if she didn’t see him.
"You’re right, Paula."
She bit her lip and said hesitantly, "But I have no reason to quit.And what if I don’t have a job when I quit?"
Paula said exasperatedly, "Silly girl! What reason do you need to quit? If you ask me, we’ll go to the Lion Group tomorrow and I’ll scold that scumbag for you! You can give them your resignation while we’re there! Just find a new job.If not, I’ll support you!"
When she saw how manly Paula looked, Lucia couldn’t help but snort with laughter She didn’t have many good friends, but she had an incredibly righteous best friend.
Whenever she was in trouble before, Paula was the first one to come to her aid.
Lucia Paula grinned as she raised her hand and patted Lucia on the back.
"No problem.Just treat me to a fondue someday and that will do!"´ A little nervous all of a sudden.
"Paula, I think we should just put down my resignation letter and leave."
"No way, now that we’re here.
Remember what I said yesterday? I’ll ask him to apologize to you!"
With that, Paula took Lucia’s hand and stepped towards the entrance.
They had just reached the elevator and were waiting for it when a familiar voice suddenly came from the side.
"Yo, Lucia, you still dare to come here.”
