After hearing that a woman's face appeared in his mind, and his hand stopped caressing her

back,'®

Lucia?" ®

How could he think of her at this time?'®

August answered But there was a surprising difference between this answer and the previous ones.

It'®

Caregiver

He had been conng for her like this many times since she was sick and he really owed her this"

to see a mon standing neat to him*

An evil expression appeared on the man's face as he raked an eyebrow at August "Mr. Adams, long

time’ no see’

Upon recognizing the man in front of him, August narrowed his eyes slightly’ ®

Surprisingly, it was Jeanne's biological elder brother Martin Kelly'®

Merlin Kelly's lips curled up into a smile, but his game was still cold He stepped forward, sizing up’

August, and said in a cold voice, August, how could you treat my sister like that?" Atrace of coldness

crossed August's eyes, and he asked in a cold voice, "What's wrong with that?" In Jeanne's case, he

performed significantly better than her so-called brother Merlin Kelly sniffed as he approached

August. A sarcantic smile spread across his face as he stared at August with gloomy eyes "My sister

didn't eat anything for a whole day. I won't believe you if you say you don't know the reason. We

Kellys agreed to you dating her, but that doesn't mean weil iorgive you if you hurt her. No matter

what, she is a member of the Kelly family! All of us in the Kell Family will not be finished with you if

something happens to her!" 7s that so?" August said in a cold voice, 'As far as I know, this is the first

time you've come over to see’ your sister in the past three months or so."

There was no difference between Merlin Kelly and his father Martin Kelly. Since Jeanne was seriously

ill the Kellys could not help her, so they left her to August, never caring for her at all. After hearing

that her E surgery had been successful, they came one by one to see her'®

Cut the nonsense. In short, we won't let you hurt her anyway, In this case, I did not come as a

reminder ®

Chapler 131 but as a warning!" As Merlin Kelly glanced at August grimly, he dropped these words,

turned around, and left. Burton couldn't stand it at the side. He frowned and looked at August,

awaiting his order. "Mr. Adams..." Taking a cold glance at him, August shook his head and said

nothing.'®

Slowly. August's gaze retreated as Merlin Kelly walked away.'®

It was difficult for Burton to calm his emotions. "Mr. Adams, with the Kelly family being so rampant,

how

can you..."

August pursed his lips and lightly uttered two words. "No hurry." ®

In his perception, Jeanne was Jeanne, and the Kelly family was the Kelly family, completely two

different!

things.

Ward of the Second Central Hospital.'®

Lucia sat on the chair next to the ward, in a depressed mood. In seeing his daughter like this, Bill

Mitchell, who was lying on the bed, remained silent for a long time’

without speaking, and finally, he raised his hand and lightly stroked her head. "Come on, Lucia,

don't be’

too sad, everything will be fine."

Upon hearing that, Lucia sniffed and her eyes were filled with tears.'®

A half hour ago, she had just learned her father needed coronary bypass surgery, but there were

some’

risks involved.’

It was evidently a difficult moment for her to accept this bad news, The sight of his daughter like

this made Bill Mitchell's heart hurt as well. He patted her shoulder and in the capital for this

operation so that it would be the safest possible and the chances of success would be higher."

Hearing him say that, Lucia was stunned. A few seconds later, she turned to Bill Mitchell and asked,

"Dad,'®

is this true? After seeing Bill Mitchell nod his head with a positive expression, she chance of winning.

"Lucia, even though your relationship with August ended, you're still friends. For the sake of me, do

not'® make it hard for him, okay?" ®

Hearing Bill Mitchell's advice in earnest, Lucia raised her eyes, hesitated for a few seconds, and

finally’ ®

I nodded her head.'®

In any case, August was also Bill Mitchell's favorite student, so she didn't have to make a scene with

him anyway. On the way back from the hospital, Lucio thought about have to be credited if the

opemton had been successful. This mood continued unul the next morning. For the first time, Lucla

woke up early and prepped two'

yuu!!'® perfect, Lucia always felt something was missing. She thought about it for a long time and

finally took out the ketchup and squeezed a smiley face on top of the fried egg. "Done!" Finally, she

slammed the lid shut, put it in her lunch bay, packed everything up, and headed to work."

The bento was prepared as a gift for August as a way of showing her appreciation. She rarely

prepared lunch for hersell, now she sacrificed her sleep time to prepare this exquisite lunchbox,

which was enough to prove her sincerity.’

By noon, when the colleagues in the department had almost lest, Lucia took the bento, went to the

pantry,’ and heated it in the microwave, intending to deliver it directly to August. After exiting the

elevator, she had only taken a few steps when she heard two women talking together not’

far ahead.’

“This i such a large issue, who knows how it will be deat with? The board held a meeting today to

discuss it”

"Mir. Stebbing must be punished, considering the damage he caused to the company. Why does the’ company's leadership not take a stand?” “That's right and I

heard that Mike Rodriguez is Irene's uncle. Considering one is the company's top'®

executive the other the vice president, this i really a big deal!”

As they talked to each other, Lucia walked behind them listening to what they were saying. It was clear to’

her what the situation was. @

She had known that Irene had such a relationship with Mike Rodriquez, the company's finance manager. and it was no wonder Irene was so rampant n the

company. When she one around at the door of the president's office. As she approached the door, she raised her hand to knock. There was no answer inside,

and sure enough, as she thought she decided to enter the offce, put down the bento, and leave as soon as possible. ®

Lucia pushed the door open, walked in quickly, put the lunch bag on August's desk, set

She was 50 nervous that she turned around in a hurry, and when she saw the cool-laced August atthe door, it was as if she had been caught red hended doing

something wrong, and her tongue tied in panic. You, came back?" ®
