At the sound of her voice, Kirk turned around and smiled as soon as he saw her. He stepped

Kirk nodded. "I see. My car is down there. Let's get in and wait for her.CL® Lucia naturally agreed.
She and Kirk were standing here, and she had a bouquet of flowers in her hand. It was quite
conspicuous, so they might as well get in the car now to avoid being seen and gossiped about by

Lucia saw the unhappy look on August's face and fet » sudden sense of pleasure, but as she watched didn't take long for Paula to ave. The three of them
went to the restaurant together, but Lucia just couldn't cheer herself up, Over the dinner, all she could think about was the look on Auguse's face before he got
into his car. Al the inner table, Paula finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked, âLucia, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like you've lost your soul?â
