Chapter 402Chapter 402 Keep him company
After an afternoon of recuperation, Lucia felt better.
To buy Lucia more rest time, Paul specially ordered a meal for Lucia and sent it to her room.
And he canceled the outdoor activities in the evening and turned them into indoor games.
After dinner, Lucia played with blocks with her kids for a while and then watched her two little kids play
with the dancing machine.
Seeing her kids jumping around on the dancing machine, Lucia felt much better.
"I'll take Timothy and Janet to my room tonight, so you can get some rest well.And if you want to go
home tomorrow, then we will go home."
After saying that, Paul picked up the teapot and poured Lucia another cup of warm tea thoughtfully.
Paul took care of Lucia thoughtfully the whole night.
And seeing that, Lucia felt the warmth inside.She nodded at Paul and said softly, "You are in charge"
They smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was inexplicably relaxed.
Paul clasped her hand on Lucia’s shoulder and moved closer to Lucia slowly, and then closer ...
Everything was so natural and smooth, but just when Paul was about to touch Lucia's lips, Lucia
shivered and subconsciously leaned back, keeping a distance from Paul.
Instantly, the atmosphere was no longer warm and relaxed, replaced by ice.
Looking at Paul's blank eyes, Lucia suddenly realized that she just did that subconsciously.Feeling the awkwardness, Lucia took a breath and forced herself to smile and explain.
"Timothy and Janet are both here, we can't do that in front of them ..."
Paul nodded slightly and said softly, "It's my lack of consideration."
Saying that, he smiled and held her hand, jokingly saying, "The two little kids are like the third wheel."
But Lucia didn’t feel joyful in her heart.She lowered her eyelids to hide her emotions.
Only she knew that the reason that she had just pushed Paul away was not that Timothy and Janet
were here but a completely subconscious action from her ...
In other words, basically, she hadn't fully accepted Paul.
Thinking of that, Lucia felt more guilty about Paul.
novelbinAfter the after-dinner entertainment, Paul took Timothy and Janet to the shower, and Lucia went back
to her bedroom.
Once the door was closed, Lucia felt as if she were cut off from the outside world and thought a lot
unconsciously.
The one that came to her mind the most time was August's face! More than two hours had passed, and
Lucia tossed and turned in bed, and was unable to sleep.
She actually wanted to go see August, to check his wound, to find out whether it was as serious as
Burton said.
The more Lucia thought about it, the more uneasy she was.Then, because she was so worried about August, and a little curious, Lucia got up and got out of bed
gingerly.
Timothy and Janet were already asleep, and Paul's bedroom was silent.
Lucia took a deep breath.She put on a jacket and left her suite gingerly.
Lucia took a long time and asked several staff members before she found out which suite August was
in.
After many turns, Lucia reached the door of August's room.She stood in front of the door, and suddenly,
she didn't have the courage to knock.
Before coming there, Lucia thought it was not a big deal.
But once she reached the door of August's room, all her courage disappeared.
After hesitating for a while, Lucia knocked at the door gently.
After knocking several times, it came the footsteps inside the room suddenly.
Then the door was opened.
Burton stood in the doorway and asked icily, "What's up?"
Lucia took a deep breath.
"I came to see August." Burton said in an official tone, "President Adams has rested.Please come to
visit another day."
Hearing Burton's words, Lucia frowned.Just when she was thinking he wouldn't see August tonight, a magnetic deep male voice came from
the room suddenly.
"Let her come in."
Lucia felt nervous instantly.She held back the excitement in her heart and looked up at Burton.
Burton was stunned and got out of Lucia's way.
Lucia walked in hurriedly.
But she had just taken a few steps forward, the door behind her was slammed from the outside.
Lucia was startled.She didn't expect Burton to do that.
In that way, she and August were the only two people left in the large suite.
Thinking of that, Lucia's heart pounded, and she felt inexplicably uneasy.She stepped forward and
looked around warily.
Just as she reached the door of the bedroom, she raised her head and saw August sitting on the bed.
It just so happened that August also raised his head and looked at Lucia.
They looked at each other with mixed emotions.
After a few seconds, August said in a deep voice, "Come here."
Lucia glanced at August's arm that was bandaged and walked toward him nervously.
No matter what, August saved her from an accident.Thinking of that, Lucia thought she could just tell August her intentions clearly since she was there to
visit him.
Lucia walked into the bedroom and stood by the bed.
She looked at August's arm and asked, "Are you badly hurt?"
"Yeah," August replied lazily, without explanation.
He leaned his upper body against the bed and showed Lucia his injured arm on purpose.
Lucia took a deep breath.
She looked at August's arm and said nervously, "Thank you for what you did for me today."
Lucia thought that she would be the one who was lying motionlessly on the bed if August hadn't saved
her.
Just as Lucia finished speaking, the man snorted coldly.
"Your apology was insincere."
Hearing that, Lucia was stunned.
She felt a little annoyed and asked quickly, "Then what else do you want?"
August didn't speak but turned his head slightly to look at the cup on the table next to him.
Without waiting for Lucia to speak, August stretched out his bandaged arm and approached the cup
slowly, and then again.But August's hand was bandaged which was clumsy and was trembling gently, and couldn't hold the
cup steady.
Seeing that, Lucia picked up the cup hurriedly.
She looked at August and gritted her teeth, saying, "I'll feed you."
Although August didn’t say anything, he had already expressed very clearly through his actions.
If Lucia couldn't take the hint that was so obvious, then she would be so obtuse.
Then, Lucia picked up the cup and brought it to August slowly, trying to feed him.
Not only did August not refuse, but he also cooperated with Lucia quite well and took a few sips.
The atmosphere in the room became wondrous and ambiguous.
August snickered in his heart.
After a few sips, he said in a light voice, "That's enough for me."
Hearing that, Lucia was relieved.
She put the cup down and continued, "I just came to see you and check your wound.If there is nothing
else, I will leave now"
Seeing that the look on the man's face didn’t change, Lucia turned around and was about to leave.
But suddenly, a hand grabbed her wrist accurately.
Lucia felt nervous and turned her head to look at August.
"What ...what are you doing? Let me go..."Before Lucia could finish her words, the man forced her to sit on the edge of the bed.
Immediately after, the man said in a magnetic voice slowly, "If you really want to thank me, stay here
with me fora while."
At this moment, for him, it was enough to have her stay with him.
