Chapter 118
When she heard what he asked, Lucia's cheeks heated up and she denied it, I'm not crying* August
curled his lips in response, then he unbuttoned his suit with one hand, took off his jacket, and
casually threw it into Lucia's arms, "Take it and I'll clean these up." Lucia froze. "You... clean up?"'®
As the president of Lion Group, he was willing to clean up these? But without saying a word, August
pulled the sleeves of his shirt up, carefully picked up the pieces, and threw them into the trash
Looking at the man's serious expression and sharp movements, Lucia suddenly felt a burst of
warmth.!
Amazingly, he could do such a thing. Even when handling trash, he made every movement pleasing
to the eye. The sleeves of his shirt were pulled up at his elbows, just pieces and turned on the faucet
to wash his hands. As soon as he turned his head, he noticed Lucia's burning gaze, so he slightly
curled his lips and asked in return, "Haven't you seen enough?" ®
August's voice was full of energy, making Lucia hurriedly avert her gaze, and then a blush appeared
on her cheeks."
August wiped his hands and followed her out of the room, catching up with her in some steps.
"Lucia, why didn't you come to the appointment today?"
coz'e
She promised him, but she changed her mind on the spur of the moment.'®
Being asked by him, Lucia felt some guilty, but when she thought of Jeanne, she was no longer
shaken. She gritted her teeth and spoke in a deep voice, "I am very sensible. I thought you wouldn't
have time, so I didn't go there.â August raised an eyebrow and said softly, "Sensible?" He was really
quite curious about what she meant. Lucia shifted her eyes and deliberately did not meet his eyes.
Then, she shoved the jacket directly into August's hand and hurriedly spoke, "Hurry up and go. You
have a girlfriend. If others see you in my house, there will be a misunderstanding.â Hearing that,
August raised an eyebrow and a smile emerged from the corner of his lips.â
It seemed that she was jealous.
He came to see her because he had something to say, but he didn't expect to be driven away by her
just after arriving at her place.â
Seemingly stunned by August's righteous tone, Lucia looked up at him, "You have to go You already
have Jeanne, and what would she think if she knew about it?" When she saw that he was still
standing in the same place, without any intention to leave, Lucia became a little anxious. Before, she
married him because she didn't know Jeanne's existence. Now that she knew, she couldn't once
again become'® the third party to ruin othersâ relationships.â "Get out of here! August, I'm not
kidding with you and I don't want others to misunderstand our relationship!" ®
August suddenly stretched out his hand and clutched her wrist, pulling her towards himself without
any effort. With the two suddenly close to each other, August leaned
Lucia gritted her teeth. With looking at the handsome face in front of her, her tears suddenly welling
up.'®
She didn't want to be scolded by others behind her back, nor did she want to hurt Jeanne and
August's feelings because of herself.â ®
"You get out." ®
Seeing that the woman was a little angry, August's frowned more and his grip on her hand
tightened involuntarily, "You wan me to go that badly?" Lucia gritted her teeth and forced the words
out from between them, "Yes, you go!"
She fought to free herself from August's hand, and with one force, her hand cut across August's
small arm at once.â a long red mark on his small arm.â
She froze for a moment before remembering something and hurriedly looked down at her wrist.
Seeing the bracelet on her hand, only then did she react.â
This bracelet of hers has a riveted pendant with the sharp end facing outward. Just now, when she
exerted herself, she accidentally scratched him.'®
She looked up in a panic and saw the not-so-shallow bloodstain on August's arm. And there was
already blood seeping outâ
from the wound, which was hurt to look at.â
Lucia was a little flustered, "I didn't mean to..."
She just simply wanted him to leave and did not want to hurt him. She walked up and looked at the
wound that was still leaking blood outward, very worried, "Don't move. I'll go get the medicinal
liquid to clean your wound!"'®
After saying that, she immediately turned around to find the medical kit. When she moved, she
brought a small medical kit from home, including the usual cold medicine, anti-inflammatory
medicineâ
medicinal liquid, and gauze. But she forgot where she had put it.â ®
Lucia pulled open one drawer after another in some panic, and just as she was about to give up, she
finally found the medica kit in the bottom drawer.
She hurriedly took the medical kit out and trotted over to the couch, asking August to sit down to
treat his wound."
She took out the medicinal liquid. When he looked at a long bloodstain that kept bleeding, her
hands couldn't help but tremble a little.â ®
Seeing that she seemed more nervous than he was, August smiled crookedly and asked softly, "Or
I'll do it myself." ®
Lucia hurriedly said, âYou. dort move and don't talk"®
for him.
When the medicinal liquid touched the wound, there willbe stinging pain. August frowned slightly but did not say anything.
Such 2 small injury was nothing to him. ®
me blow on it for you."
A cool sensation came, which did ease the pain. Looking up at the woman with gentle movements and a serious expression, August was attracted to her. She
dict even know how charming and fascinating sh looked to him now.
Without noticing August's change, Luc took the gauze and whispered, âDon't move and I'm going to wrap your wound.â August no longer had the mind to
pay attention to others, and in frant of him, the small woman's every move seemed to cary an invisible attraction that he could not resist When he thought of
that day in front of the hospital, she said vith certainty that she i not have him in her heart, August was inexplicably angry: He didn't believe she didn't have
him in her heart! When Lucia his head and his lips with warmth fell directly to the comer of her ips.â
