Leroy was confused for a moment, and after half a second, he immediately looked away and replied

seriously, "Nothing." ®

sanitary pads!" ®

body Leroy looked at him in shock, "Boss..." ®

He could only study the computer and never even had a girlfriend. Except for the occasional

advertisement he had seen, he knew nothing about these feminine products,’ ®

August raised an eyebrow and a look of displeasure appeared on his face, "Is it difficult?" Leroy

swallowed and said, "No...no problem. Which one should I buy?" ®

August's face darkened more and he also didn't know about these. "Buy one pack of each." He said

this in a cold voice and was about to push the door to get out of the car. As if he thought Leroy

could not do it alone, he looked at Burton sitting in the passenger seat and ordered, "You follow

him and quickly buy sanitary pads back.” After saying that, he carried Lucia out of the car, striding

towards the hotel. Burton and Leroy looked at each other and turned pale, but they could not

disobey the order, so they had to go buy them immediately. Back in the hotel room, August laid

Lucia on the bed. As he looked at the woman's furrowed brow and pale lips, a strange’

emotion came over him.!

This time, she did suffer because of him. When he looked at the woman's already tattered clothes,

August's eyes darkened. He reached out to change her clothes, but just as he touched Lucia's body,

she struggled as if she had been electrocuted.'®

"Don't! Don't hit me! ..."' ®

She seemed to dream of something horrific and curled up in resistance, something like pleading

wails humming out from her mouth. August's heart contracted violently for a moment, and he

reached out to hold both of her hands that were flailing about,

softening his voice to comfort, "Don't be afraid and I'm.."

His voice seemed to carry the magic of comfort. After he said it several times continuously, Lucia

slowly calmed down a lot and stopped moving around.

Watching her quiet down, August breathed a sign of relief.’

It seemed that this incident had left a shadow in her life."

was a knock at the door of the room. At the sound, August instantly regained his usual coolness on

his face. Then, he stepped to the door and opened it."

Burton and Leroy stood at the door, carrying a large bag of feminine products out of breath as if

they had run all the way here’

August took the bag. Without saying a word, he closed the door behind him. Standing Leroy raised

his hand upward to hold the glasses that had slipped onto the bridge of his nose, and said leisurely,

"Do you feel that Boss is different from before?" Burton the front. After a long time, Lucia opened

her eyes in a daze and was greeted by a then, she heard a voice from next to her.'®

Hearing that magnetic and familiar voice, Lucia inexplicably settled down a bit.'®

She turned her head and saw August just sitting to the side, staring right at her with his unreadable

eyes.'®

She realized that she was in the hotel'®

What happened after she was kidnapped was like a dream. It was as if as soon as she woke up,

everything went back to'®

normal.’

Giving her a faint hmm, August casually picked up the glass of water next to her and handed it

over.'

Lucia sat up straight and slowly reached out to take it. After taking two sips, she slowly came back

to her senses.’

After putting down the glass of water, she looked down at the clothes on her body and was a little

surprised”

The clothing was not hers, wide and soft, but rather like a man's shirt. ®

Lucia froze for a moment. Two seconds later, like a frightened bird, she looked at August who was

on the side in shock, *Did... did you change the clothes for me?" At this moment, she was in

August's room, lying on his bed, and undoubtedly, the clothes she was wearing were also his...

August looked up at her, with a slight wavering from his unreadable eyes. He raised an eyebrow and

asked casually and softly in return, "Or her hands under the quilt, feeling the fabric under the loose

shirt and even the feminine product padded inside! He couldn't have done all this? ®

during her physiological period! Seeing the woman's stunned expression, August had obviously

guessed what she was thinking. He frowned, pursed his thin lips, unnaturally averted his eyes, and

looked to the side.’

If he didn't do this kind of thing, did he ask Burton or the others to do it?"

Lucia couldn't resist asking him. But when the words came to her lips, she blushed again and finally

did not ask. She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and stopped thinking about the mess things.

Remembering what she experienced after being kidnapped today, she couldn't help but shiver.

When she looked up at August again, Lucia felt a little warmer in her heart. She took a deep breath

and said softly, August,’

thank you for what happened today.” Thank him for coming to her rescue in that

In the face of the sudden thanks, August unnaturally moved his eyebrows. He turned his head to

Lucia, with his tone as cold and detached as ever, "Don't thank me. You were kidnapped because of

me, so this is what I should do.” Lucia was speechless at once.

1 true. She had no grudge against those thugs and they did kidnap her because of August, When she was lost in thought, August suddenly spoke up, his tone

serious,"

At that Lucia suddenly became a bit anxious, "What about my work here?"13

She came to Franisfurt this time because she was assigned by Carter to represent the only been here for a day. If she went back ike this, how should she explain

t to her colleagues in the department? August turned his head. When he saw the woman's tightly knitted brow and anxious look, his eyes darkened. A few

seconds later, he sad in a cold voice, ThThis time, senging 2 teom aut to study i co envio for my rpertion. Do you understand His quick answer left Lucia a

tle confused. She hesitated for some time and rethought what he had just said twice before'®

she fully understood. ©

She couldnt help but shiver when she thought of the fierce faces she met there today when she was tied Up’

She had never contacted people like that covered in tattoos, gambling, armed with guns, all outlaws who had no regard for the law or morat code’

How id August get involved with these people?
