Chapter 186

Jeanne panicked.She had not expected things to develop like this.She immediately chased after him and asked, "August, are you angry?"

Oh, her stupid brother! He couldn't do anything right and even made August angry! "Jeanne, I'm not angry."

August stopped and put on a gentle smile on his face.

He raised his hand to stroke her head, and said softly, "I have something urgent to deal with."

After hearing what he said, Jeanne felt a little more at ease.

She raised her head, and asked tenderly, "Really?"

August chuckled, "Really? I'll call you when I'm done."

Jeanne took his hand and said reluctantly, "Okay, then don't be too tired, okay?"

The two said a few more words and then separated.

Walking out of the Kelly family villa, August secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, he somehow felt he was dealing with Jeanne like other Kelly family members.He raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.He got into the car, told the driver to start the car, and called Burton.

"Mr.Adams, Miss Mitchel is with her good friend Paula.I saw them walk out of the hospital, so I didn't follow them anymore"

Hearing Burton's report on the other end of the phone, August paused and said softly, "Well, go back to the company."

He hung up the phone.

Burton sounded hesitant on the phone just now.He felt that Burton had something to say to him.

Back in the Lion group, August arrived at the company and walked into the President's Office.

Burton came over not long after and said, "Mr.Adams."

August asked subconsciously, "How is she?"

When he said this, he was a little surprised.

Since when did he begin to care about Lucia so much? Burton reported truthfully, "She didn't seem to be in a good mood.I heard her talk with Paula.She was worried that her father would know about her injury, and she seemed to be collecting money for her father's surgery..."

August's eyes suddenly darkened.

No wonder she seemed to be short of money recently, working overtime every day and taking part-time jobs...He saw that she was short of money, but he had never thought about why she was short of money.

August somehow felt a little ashamed.

He was not sure if it was for Lucia or her father.

After a pause, August instructed coldly, "Let them take down those online videos of the live streaming."

"But Mr.Adams, the release of these videos can prove that Boehm's products have no problems.It's beneficial to us..."

August said without hesitation, "A clean hand wants no washing.I'll ask someone to investigate the product.You first ask someone to delete the videos."

Now that the video went viral on the Internet, everyone knew that Boehm's products had been tampered with.

So there was no need to keep the video on the Internet.

Seeing August's firm attitude, Burton had no choice but to nod.

After a pause, August continued to ask, "Lucia went home?"

Burton nodded, "I think so."

Hearing this, August got up immediately and walked out, "Let's go see her."

As for the surgery fee, she could have gone to him.

No matter how the two of them fought, Mr.Mitchell was his teacher.He had no reason to sit by and watch when they needed help.

When would Lucia understand it? With a hint of displeasure in his heart, August and Burton rushed directly to Lucia's apartment.

The car stopped downstairs in the apartment.

August glanced at Burton and commanded, "I'll go up and come down soon."

He pushed open the car door and walked into the apartment building.

Burton was sitting in the car.

Watching August's back, he felt a little curious.

Why did he feel that August wouldn't be able to come down soon? Arriving in front of Lucia's apartment, August raised his hand and rang the doorbell.

After a short while, there was a sound inside the door, and the door was pushed open, revealing a crack.

Seeing the person at the door, August was slightly startled.

Before he could react, the door slammed shut with a loud noise.

Why was she here? After a pause, he immediately took out his phone, called Burton, and commanded in a deep voice, "Come up."

At the same time, Paula screamed in panic in the apartment.

She ran into the bedroom in a panic, and shouted, "Lucia! It's not good! Lucia!"

Lucia just put on her pajamas.

Before she could react, the door was pushed open and Paula rushed in.

Seeing Paula like this, Lucia was confused, "What's wrong?"

"The doorbell rang just now, and I thought it was our fondue takeaway! When I opened the door, guess who it was? It's that...scumbag!"

The word "scumbag" was Paula's special name for August.

Lucia reacted and asked, "August?"

"That's right! It's him! What is he here?!"

Paula was confused and guessed randomly, "He's coming to your house.Is he plotting against you?"

Her eyes swept across Lucia's chest, and she said nervously, "Can we beat him? Should we call the police?"

Hearing this, Lucia laughed angrily, patted her, and said, "It's not as you said.He might be here for something."

She didn't know why August came to see her after he had left with Jeanne, but she couldn't hide from seeing him when he was here.

Lucia smiled, rubbed Paula's head, and said softly, "I'll go out and have a look."

Paula pulled her and said, "Don't...why am I a little worried"

Just then, the doorbell rang again.

The two looked at each other and walked to the door.

Paula said solemnly, "Don't open the door yet!"

She stood on tiptoe and looked out through the cat's eye.

Outside the door, there was a young man in a takeaway suit with a takeaway box in his hands.

Apart from that, no one else was seen.

Paula breathed a sigh of relief and then turned to look at Lucia, "Looks like he's gone...It's the delivery guy."

Lucia said softly, "Well, open the door."

Paula nodded and opened the door.

"Here's your takeaway."

The young man handed over a large take-out box, which contained the fondue dishes that Paula had ordered on her phone just now.

Just as Paula reached out to take it, a hand suddenly stretched out beside her, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her out.

"Ah!" Paula called out.

Before she could react, she fell into a man's arms.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Burton's face close at hand.

She was instantly stunned.

Where did he...come from? At the same time, August walked into the apartment.

Before Lucia could figure out what was going on, the door was slammed shut.

Looking at the tall man in front of her, Lucia unconsciously took two steps back, "You...you're breaking into a private house!"

When August heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really?"Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

If Lucia knew that this was a house under his name and that he was her real landlord, she probably wouldn't say such a thing.

"You're like this...I can call the police..."

Lucia turned around in a panic and went to get her phone from the table.

Suddenly, her wrist was clasped by a big hand, and she was easily pulled into his arms.

Then, she felt his warm breath in her ear, "How dare you!"

He knew Lucia's guts.

She dared to escape under his nose at best.

How dare she call the police?
