Chapter 123

Lucia leaned over.

When she saw the photo, she looked a little unnatural.

It was fine for Paula to take the photo.

But now Paul and she were just ordinary friends, and the photo showed him putting a necklace on her
with intimate movements, which might make others misunderstand.

She looked at Paula and said softly, "Paula, stop it, and please delete it."

Paula gripped her phone tightly, refusing to delete it, “I captured this photo so well and it’s beautiful.I
can’t delete it!" Noticing that Lucia’s expression was bad, Paul got a little more serious and held out his
hand to Paula. Paula beamed.

Although she was reluctant, she handed over the phone. Paul got the phone.

Looking at the photo on the screen, he paused when he was about to press the delete button. of
hesitation, Paul clicked share and spot the photo to himself via Paula’s WeChat before deleting it. After
doing this, he casually handed the phone back to Paula without saying anything. Seeing this, Lucia
thought the photo had been deleted and didn’t say more.

Suddenly take you to Hibiscus Garden today? Lucia smiled at him and softly declined, "No, the birthday
party is starting late, and I can go by myself."

Paula walked Lucia’s side and took her by the hand.



Lucia, I want to go too, so we can still be together, but something is going on at home today, so my
brother and I can’t go."

Lucia squeezed her hand and laughed, "It’s okay and maybe there will be another chance later."

In fact, need to explain to her again when she did something.

After all, she still had an important thing to do al Greeves’ birthday party today.

After leaving the Thomas family, Lucia took a taxi straight home.

When she got home and did her Garden, and the entire three floors were reserved.

The first floor was the lobby,The second floor is the place where the formal dinner is open.

The third floor was available for restrooms. Lucia took the invitation to enter, and after listening to the
waiter’s introduction, she couldn’t help but sigh.

The world of the rich was really unimaginable and this reservation for one night would definitely cost a
lot of money In the lobby, a lot of people had already arrived, and there was a lively scene of people
crowding around and toasting each other about to start, there were many more people than before.

Greeves had already appeared and was receiving the blessings of the people in the center of the hall.

When there were many people, it was a bit troublesome to find August.

Lucia looked left and right but did not see August’s figure. his permission to move to ensure her safety.

Finally, along with a noise at the entrance of the hall, August, wearing a dark gray suit, walked in under
made the people around him make a path for him without fail. Lucia looked at the man in the crowd and
couldn’t help but take a deep breath.



She didn’t expect that he would be so shiny and dazzling in the crowd as if all the light in the hall was
drawn to him so that she could no longer see anyone else. August took Burton and marched directly
toward Greeves in the center.

Soon, Greeves noticed him and was beaming with joy.

August stepped forward, bent slightly, and greeted Greeves, "Uncle, may you live a long and
prosperous life." Greeves was full of smiles and nodded his head repeatedly, "Okay, I’m happy that you
can come to see "Knowing that you don’t lack anything, I especially sought out a little thing."

August said, looking to Burton beside him.

Burton understood, and immediately handed up the box in his hand.

Just now everyone had already sent gists, including jade Ruyi, golden peaches, etc.

For the old man, they were all common things and there was nothing rare.

light shone out from his eyes after just one look.

Someone in the crowd said, "It’s a handmade teapot made by Mr.Cotton!"

The crowd was astonished at the sound of the voice.

Everyone knew that Greeves loved teapots and collecting the works of famous masters, but
Mr.Cotton’s handmade works were not easy to come by.

Even if someone had money, he might not be able to buy it.

As expected, Greeves seemed happy.



After leading his men put the teapot away, he then smiled and said to August, ’August, the gift you
prepared for me is really attentive and I like it."

After a few pleasantries, it was clear that August was the center of the crowd, and Greeves was pulling
VV heart, she was thinking about the action. searching the crowd, Lucia still did not see Irene’s figure
but found another important person, Ted. walked beside him.

The two were like a model couple, smiling, chatting, and greeting the crowd, looking like they had a
very good relationship.

she heard from August that Ted and Lilian’s marriage had long existed in name only.

Ted had been cheating on her for years and Lilian was often as nervous as she was to catch the
primary three.

But when those who didn’t know the real situation looked at the two of Lucia took a deep breath and
turned her head to look the other way, intending to look U black dress with her chest wide open, her
breasts swaying back and forth.

The makeup on her face was much thicker than usual.

No wonder she couldn’t find Irene after searching for a long time.

It turned out that Irene’s appearance today was so different from her usual outfit that she almost didn’t
recognize her.

Looking at Irene’s pretended unexpected look, Lucia curled her lips into a smile and whispered, "Hello
Irene."

Irene walked up next to her, swept around, and spoke tentatively, "Why are you to smile, and casually
said, "I still have friends over there, so I won’t talk to you anymore."



After saying that, she directly turned around and stepped towards the other side.

Lucia looked at her leaving figure, and the smile in her eyes slowly disappeared.

At this time, both of them were, and it was not yet known who was the final winner.
