Chapter 237 Restaurant Encounter

Lucia had been in the hospital for several days and she was much relieved when Bill was getting better.

"This is the last checkup, and your dad has recovered a lot."

The doctor handed over the checklist to Lucia and said.

Hearing this, Lucia got a little excited, "In that case, when can we reschedule the surgery?" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

The doctor with gold-rimmed glasses paused and spoke softly, "If you still intend to invite Dr.Long to operate, you may have to contact him, but in my advice, I suggest you should wait until your dad’s physical condition is stable before doing the surgery, and I'm afraid it will take some time."

At these words, Lucia was in a subdued mood.

She nodded and said softly, "I see, Thank you."

When she came out of the office, Lucia held the checklist and felt a little upset because she was afraid she couldn't afford the fee and be able to pay off all the debts if the operation was postponed.

Had it not been for this sudden accident, she was sure that her dad would have finished the heart bypass surgery by now.

She let out a long sigh and immediately adjusted her mood before walking into the ward.

Just as she stepped in, she saw Paul sitting next to the hospital bed.

Paul turned around and greeted her gently, "Hello, Lucia."

Lucia smiled and walked up, "Do you want something to drink."

"A glass of water, thank you."

They smiled at each other.

Since Paul and Paula came to the hospital last time, Paul came over almost every day for the next few days, and thanks to his company, Bill was not that boring anymore.

Paul just raised his hand to take the glass of water from Lucia, Bill sitting on the hospital bed couldn't help but ask, "Paul, have you read that paper published last December..."

Elisa glowered at Bill and hated it when he disturbed Paul and Lucia.It was already lunchtime, but Bill and Paul were still talking about that paper.

Elisa bought lunch and gave it to Bill with a slight complaint, "Just stop to eat!"

Lucia and Paul on the side saw this and couldn't help but laugh.

Bill frowned in dissatisfaction, "Why did you just buy lunch for me? Did you forget Lucia and Paul?"

Elisa looked at Lucia and Paul, smiling, "Lucia will treat Paul to thank Paul for taking care of us these days."

Then, she packed up a few clothes that Lucia had changed and said, "Just go home to take a shower and get some rest."

Lucia was indeed a bit tired, and it just so happened that she was out of clean clothes, so she had to agree, "Okay, I'll go home today."

Hearing her promise, Elisa was ecstatic and winked at Paul, "Paul, don't forget to send her home!"

Paul smiled lightly and said, "My pleasure."

Coming out of the hospital and getting into the car, Lucia turned her head to look at Paul and asked, "Just choose what you want to eat because I haven't eaten out for a long time."

Paul smiled and responded, "Okay, I know a restaurant that's definitely to your taste."

On the way, the two talked and laughed, but when Lucia got out of the car, she was a little worried if she could afford the expense of eating in this high-end restaurant.

Paul walked over and said softly, "Let's go, I've booked a seat close to the window where is quiet."

Lucia asked with surprise, "You booked it in advance?"

Paul winked at her mysteriously and laughed, "Guess what?"

In fact, as early as yesterday when Elisa told him to let them go out for lunch, he had booked the restaurant in advance.

Lucia probably already guessed, and pretended to be angry, "Didn't we agree that my treat was on?"

"It's okay, next time it's on you."

Lucia hesitated, "No, you can't..."

"Why not?"

Paul leaned over slightly closer to her, lowered his voice and laughed, "It's my honor to have lunch with you."

Lucia was amused by his words and followed him into the restaurant.

After ordering the food, Lucia and Paul were chatting with each other.

Lucia felt it was relaxed and comfortable when she stayed with Paul, and she was willing to date him as he was such a perfect man.

Lucia got up to go to the restroom before the food was served.

Just as she came out of the restroom when he heard a familiar voice, "Merlin had something to do today, so he didn't come..."

As soon as she came out, she bumped into two people who were walking over and the three looked at each other, all slightly stunned.

Lucia clenched her fists tightly and this time she was reluctant to see August because last time they had ended in an argument.

Jeanne was the first to respond and initiative to greet Lucia, "What a coincidence, Lucia!"

Lucia was a little uncomfortable but forced a smile at her, "Yeah, quite a coincidence."

However, she might admit that the yellow dress Jeanne wore matched his dark blue suit well.

In order to conceal her sadness and embarrassment, she came up with an excuse when she swept the necklace around Jeanne's neck and complimented softly, "Ms.Kelly, your necklace is beautiful."

"Thank you!"

Suddenly being complimented, Jeanne smiled brightly and gently touched the necklace.

She turned her head somewhat shyly to look at August at her side and spoke in a happy tone, "August bought it for me!"
