Chapter 201 He Did Have A Warm Heart

Lucia didn't hesitate, nodded without thinking, and said in a firm voice, "Well, I agree."

She had felt indebted to August.

Now with something like this happening, she felt even guiltier.

"Well, get in the car first."

Lucia took a deep breath, released him, and got into the car.

On the way back, neither of them said a word, and it was so quiet in the car.

The car stopped outside the gate of the community.

Lucia reached out to push the door and looked at August tentatively.

Seeing that he didn't respond, she got out of the car.

The moment the car door closed, she heard his voice, "Tomorrow I'll ask Burton to pick you up and go back to the old house to see Grandma."

"Okay."

Lucia nodded and closed the door.

The car started and left quickly.

Lucia sighed lightly.

She turned around, walked into the community, and returned to the apartment.

When she got home, she washed her face ad charged her phone which had been turned off because it was out of battery.

As soon she turned it on, she found that there were several missed calls from Elisa.

Lucia was startled, and then she reacted suddenly.

She had forgotten to tell them that she couldn't go to the hospital today! She hurriedly called back, explained to Elisa, and hung up the phone.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

After much tossing, she was now hungry and tired.

She walked around the kitchen but found that there was nothing in the refrigerator.

It was really bad luck.

Lucia bit her lips and was about to order a takeaway when the doorbell rang suddenly.

She walked to the door and saw a young man in a takeaway uniform standing outside the door through the cat's eye.

She opened the door in confusion.

The young man handed her a hot takeaway and said, "Miss, here is your takeaway"

But she didn't order takeout... NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She hesitantly took it.

She glanced at the order posted on it and found the name of the store somewhat familiar.

It seemed to be a restaurant where she had dined before, and August took her there...

Could it be that August ordered it for her? His face flashed in her mind, and Lucia felt warm.

He was the only one who could order her takeout at this time.

Although he looked cold on the surface, he did have a warm heart...

This night, Lucia didn't sleep well.

Even in her dream, she was running around in the Ecological Garden to look for Grandma.

When she woke up, it was just dawn.

She tidied up briefly.

Soon Burton called and said that he was downstairs.

It was less than an hour's drive.

Lucia arrived at the old house.

After getting out of the car and looking at the familiar old house, Lucia suddenly hesitated.

"Come in, please.Mr.Adams and Old Mrs.Adams are on the second floor."

Hearing Burton's reminder, Lucia took a deep breath, nodded, and plucked up the courage to walk in.

They walked to the second floor, and Burton took her to the door of the bedroom and opened the door.

When Lucia walked in, she saw Grandma lying on the bed and August standing by the side.

When Grandma saw Lucia, her eyes lit up, "Oh, Lucia, you came."

"Grandma..."

She quickly stepped forward and asked worriedly, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Grandma nodded, looked weakly at August, and said softly, "August, you go out first.I have something to tell Lucia."

Hearing this, August paused, glanced at Lucia, but said nothing.

He got up, walked out of the room, and closed the door.

Lucia was a little puzzled.

When she turned around, she saw Grandma looking at her with hesitation.

"Grandma, what's wrong?"

Was there anything she couldn't say in front of August? Grandma took a deep breath and said casually, "Yesterday's incident, don't take it seriously.I don't blame you..."

Hearing this, Lucia lowered her eyes and said softly, "If I had brought you with me at the time, it would not have happened."

When Grandma heard this, she patted the back of her hand and said softly, "Actually, I didn't get lost yesterday."

When Lucia heard this, she was shocked and looked up at her in surprise, "Then why..."

Why did she suddenly disappear? "Yesterday when I was waiting for you, a girl about your age suddenly came over and said that she was your friend..."

After hearing Grandma recall what had happened yesterday, Lucia became more and more shocked.

According to Grandma's description, she couldn't guess who it was, but one thing was certain.

That girl was probably doing it because of her! "Then why didn't you tell August about this?"

Grandma sighed softly, "I was afraid that he would blame you, so I didn't tell him.Fortunately, nothing happened.But I think I should tell you.No matter who she is, you have to be careful!"

Lucia felt heavy-hearted and very uneasy.She didn't seem to have offended anyone.She went through the women she knew in her mind, but in the end, she still had no clue.

The only person she might have offended was Irene, but they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Could it be her? Seeing her in a trance, Grandma said softly, "Lucia, it's not your fault this time.I asked you to come and told you this because I think you should know.But don't take it to heart."

Lucia came to her sense and nodded at her.

She came out of Grandma's bedroom and still felt worried.

Now she didn't know who the girl was.She was targeted and didn't know who did it.She had no defense against the enemy.

What was even worse was that it even implicated Grandma.

No matter who it was, she was unforgivable! Just after taking two steps, she inadvertently raised her eyes and saw August standing against the wall at the entrance of the stairs not far ahead.

He was wearing a shirt without a tie, with two buttons unbuttoned at the neckline, looking a little more casual.

He was just casually standing against the wall, but he was still charming.

It looked like he was waiting for her.

Lucia clenched her fists secretly, gathered up her courage, and walked towards August.

Grandma didn't tell him about it, but she felt that it would be better to let him know in case something happened again...

She stepped forward and said in a serious tone, "August, let's talk."

A trace of surprise flashed across August's eyes.

After a second, he said slightly, "Okay,"

Coincidentally, he also had something to tell her.

August stepped forward and led her into the study.

When the door was closed, he walked to the sofa and sat down in a casual posture.

Then he lifted his chin slightly and said, "Sit down."

Lucia sat down opposite him.

She took a deep breath and said softly, "Actually, Grandma disappeared yesterday not because she got lost."

As soon as Lucia said that, August tensed a little, and his eyes immediately turned sharp and cold.

"What happened?"

When he found Grandma yesterday, she told him that she had accidentally lost her way.

Did it turn out to be another story now? Lucia unhurriedly repeated Grandma's words to August, only to see his face getting darker and colder.

For the people he cherished, he would never allow them to be harmed in the slightest! Lucia paused, and then said softly, "I couldn't even figure out who it was..."

August frowned tightly and said coldly, "I'll check."

When Lucia heard this, she nodded, "This incident has something to do with me anyway.I'm sorry."

With that, she stood up and bowed to apologize to August.

Seeing this, August thought of what she had said before she got into the car.

He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does what you said yesterday still count?"

Lucia was stunned at first.

Remembering what she had said, she nodded, "Of course."

When August heard this, he took a document from the side, handed it to her, and said, "Then sign it."
