Chapter 263 Hospitalization

When the man screamed in pain, Lucia took the opportunity to run away. But the Other two men

surrounded her and grabbed her arms. One of them said, "B*tch! Don't you dare try to run!"

"Let me go!” Lucia gritted her teeth in anger while struggling desperately

She had not expected to meet such despicable and shameless men in a place like this1

With a grim face, Jason pulled her hard toward the men's lavatory and sneered, "Let go of you? You

wish!"

No matter how strong Lucia was, she couldn't defeat the two men. When she was about to be

pulled into the men’s lavatory, a man suddenly shouted coldly, "Let go of her!"

Beforb she could look up, a tall man quickly approached and kicked Jason in the stomach. Jason

kept stepping back and almost fell. When Lucia raised her head and saw the comer's face, she felt

surprised and happy It was Paul! Paul's face was gloomy and frightening, and there was a hint of

fierceness in his angry eyes. He stepped forward and quickly knocked the other two men down.

After dealing with them, he hurriedly stepped forward, took Lucia’s hand, and asked worriedly, "Are

you alright?”

Lucia blinked her eyes. Meeting his clear eyes, she felt warm in her heart and quickly nodded, "I'm

fine. You..."

Before she could finish her words, she saw a figure charging at Paul out of the corner of her eye. She

was startled and shouted, "Paul, be careful!"

Hearing this, Paul narrowed his eyes. But before he could turn his head back, he was hit hard on the

back of the head.

With a crack, a wine bottle exploded and shards splattered. Paul froze when blood flowed down his

head After a while, the blood dropped down, staining his white shirt.

When Lucia recovered from the shock, she asked, "Paul, are you OK?" The look in Paul's eyes was

dull. Feeling the pain in the back of his head, he frowned. But when was about to speak, he felt soft

all over his body and directly fell toward Lucia.

"Paul!" Lucia quickly held his body and said in fright, "I will call 911..."

Then, she took out her phone in a panic and dialed the number with trembling hands.

When something like this happened, there would inevitably be noises. So, many people gathered

around, and several waiters were running over.

Ronnie had hit Paul on impulse just now. But when he saw the current situation and his head

covered in blood, he was frightened and transfixed. When he came back to his senses, he hurriedly

threw the broken bottle away and winked at Jason and the other man. Soon, they took the hint and

quickly ran away together with him.

After hanging up the phone, Lucia looked at Paul's bleeding head and pale face, and she felt so

worried that she was about to cry.

Then, she said in a slightly trembling voice, "Paul, hold on!"

She had not expected Ronnie to be so cruel that he had hit Paul's head with a wine bottle.

Paul was resting his chin on her shoulder with a bloodless face. When he heard her voice, his

drooping eyelids moved, and then, he forced a reassuring smile and said, I'm fine, Lucia.”

When he saw the woman he liked crying for him, he was both happy and distressed. This feeling

was indescribable. Suddenly, a waiter rushed over, asked about the situation, and quickly helped

Paul walk into the elevator.

As soon as they reached the gate of the club, the ambulance arrived. Seeing two doctors carry Paul

into the vehicle, Lucia followed them in without hesitation, wearing the waitress’s uniform.

Then, the nurse began to disinfect Paul's wound. Looking at the bloody wound on the back of his

head, Lucia felt cold in her hands.

Suddenly, a big and warm hand was stretched over and covered her hand. Paul then said in a weak

voice, "Don't look."

Lucia felt moved in her heart. She had not expected him to care about her feelings at such a time.

Suddenly, tears welled up in her eyes again. Soon, the ambulance arrived at the hospital. Lucia

followed them to the door of the emergency room but was blocked outside. The wound on Paul's

head was deep, so the doctor needed to remove the broken glass before suturing It. While waiting

outside, Lucia unconsciously paced forth and back, feeling uneasy. She had never expected such a

thing to happen.

After a while, the door of the emergency room opened, and a nurse came out and said, "The wound

has been treated Please come in."

When Lucia went in, she happened to see another nurse throwing the used bloody gauze into a

trash can. Seeing the blood, she felt a sting in her heart. Paul had gauze wrapped around his head

now, and his face was a little pale.

But everything else was normal. Seeing her come in, he even gave her a * reassuring smile.

Lucia took a deep breath, stepped forward, and asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Paul said softly, Tm fine. Don't worry."

The doctor told them the do's and don“ts and then said unhurriedly, "The wound IS not serious, but

it IS in the head after all. So, I suggest you stay in the hospital for observation for one night. If

everything is normal till tomorrow morning, you will be discharged. Remember to come to take out

stitches when the time comes.”

Paul hesitated for a moment and said, "OK, I will stay in the hospital for a night."

When.the nurse heard his words, she immediately went to prepare the ward

Lucia helped Paul sit up, sent him to the ward, and fetch some water for him before she sat down.

"Paul, thank you for saving me."

If he had not shown up, she would have been raped.

"Never mind. We're friends after all.” Paul said slowly, It's getting late, I Il ask my subordinates to

send you home."

Lucia quickly refused. No, I'll stay with you in the hospital tonight.

Paul had been injured for her, so she could not leave him here alone. Paul frowned, intending to

persuade her into going back home. But seeing her firm expression, he swallowed the words on the tip

of his tongue. Selfishly, he didn't want her to go, but he didn't want to see her tiredly staying here all

night either. After a short while of silence, he looked at her clothes and asked, "Why did you to go to

Perfect Fortune? You're wearing a waitress's uniform...”

Hearing his question, Lucia immediately responded, "I went there to look for a person. I was blocked at

the gate because I don't have a VIP card, so I sneaked in through a side door. I thought it would be

easier to find him if I changed into a waitress's uniform. But expectedly, such a thing happened.”

When Paul heard her say she had been looking for a person, the look in his eyes darkened slightly.

He knew August was in Perfect Fortune today. The leak of the Lion group's project plan had aroused a

sensation, so August had too many relationships to maintain. Several other companies had been

affected, so his business entertainment must be increased. Coincidentally, Paul also had been invited to

Perfect Fortune by a business partner tonight. And he believed Lucia had gone thereto look for August.
