Chapter 343 You Were Trying to kill Her

"What?" Paul was startled, thinking he heard it wrong. "Lucia, what did you just say?"

Lucia couldn't help smiling. She stroked her belly with her right hand, and said softly. "The doctor

said they're

twins."

Paul's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he looked very happy, "Really?"

Seeing his expression, Lucia couldn't help but feel amused and nod.

*That's great!” Paul looked overjoyed, and he held Lucia's hand a little excitedly. "A boy and a girl.

You're so lucky.

You will have no regrets in life!"

Seeing his happy face, Lucia felt a little emotional.

During this period, Paul had been good to her and her family. He had not only helped her to leave

Austos City

but also made arrangements for her parents.

She could see his sincerity towards her. Thinking of this, her nose felt sour, and tears welled up in

her eyes

Seeing this, Paul's smile froze, and he became a little nervous, "Lucia, what's wrong with you?"

Lucia shook her head and took a deep breath, "Paul, thank you very much.”

Hearing this, Paul smiled and said affectionately, "Lucia, I'm more than willing to take care of you. I

just hope

you will be able to accept me one day in the future.”

Lucia's heart trembled slightly. She raised her eyes to meet Paul's eyes, but another man's face

suddenly flashed

in her mind.

In an instant, she felt a basin of cold water pouring down directly from the top of her head, and she

woke up a

lot in an instant.

She took a deep breath, looked at Paul, and said softly. "Paul, I'm sorry, there may be such a day in

the future,

but now I...

She paused and couldn't go on. 1/4 25.0%

understand.” A trace of bitterness flashed across Paul's eyes, and he said softly, I'm not in a hurry.

and I'm

willing to wait.

When Lucia heard this, she felt even guiltier about Paul.

Now, she had no choice. In a foreign country, she could only rely on Paul. She owed Paul a great

favor, and she

would certainly return his favor in the future!

As for August, she would slowly forget him and completely exclude him from her world. Lucia didn't

know that

the man she could not forget had never stopped looking for her.

In the villa area of Austos City, Jeanne was hurriedly picking and changing clothes in the bedroom

because

August had called her twenty minutes ago and said he was coming to see her.

This was the first time that August had taken the initiative to come to her house to see her after the

engagement. She naturally should dress up, and look neither too casual nor too grand.

After changing several clothes, she just put a lavender dress on when a maid knocked on the door

of her room,

"Miss, Mr. Adams is downstairs."

As soon as Jeanne heard this, she hurriedly zipped up her dress and straightened her hair. Only then

did she

leave the room and walk downstairs, pretending to be calm.

As soon as Jeanne came down from the second floor, she saw August walking in from the door. She

greeted

him with a smile, and said in a sweet voice, "August!"

August's face darkened slightly. He raised his eyes to look at her, and asked in a light tone, "Aren't

your parents

at home?"

Jeanne stepped forward and took his arm naturally. "My father and my brother are both in the

company, and my

mother went to play cards. Do you want me to call them back?"

"No need.” August's eyes were deep, and there was a sleeting coldness in them, "This is the best.”

When Jeanne heard this, she was overjoyed and blushed shyly. It seemed that August had come

around and

decided to spend some time with her alone,

She immediately told the maid to come over to serve coffee and fruit, and then dragged August

towards the

sofa.

Suddenly, she thought about it and said softly. "Well... August, why don't you go to my room? It's

quiet there."

August's face didn't change. He walked to the sola and sat down, "No, I came to see you because I

have

something to do

Jeanne was confused, "What's the matter?"

August didn't say anything and looked up in the direction of the door. When Jeanne saw it, she

followed his

gaze. At the door, Mark was pushed in by two men with his left and right arms clasped, and he

looked a little

embarrassed.

Jeanne was stunned for a moment and her face changed slightly. She quickly looked at August and

asked,

LE

"August, what are you doing?”

"Jeanne, do you remember the motorcycle accident that happened at the door of the company last

month?"

Hearing this, a slight change flashed across Jeanne's face and she asked, "What's wrong?"

August narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at Mark sharply. "It wasn't an accident. It was a

deliberate act.”

Hearing what he said, Jeanne instantly stiffened. She clenched her fists and looked up at Mark with

a bit of

coldness in her eyes.

Two seconds later, she pretended to be surprised, looked at August, and said, "What does that have

to do with

Mark

August said in a cold voice, "Let him speak for himself."

Mark's face was a little gloomy. When he looked up at Jeanne, a bit of guilt flashed in his eyes. He

took a deep

breath and didn't say a word,

Jeanne gritted her teeth and guessed what was going on August had sent two men to tie Mark up,

and it meant

that he must have evidence in his hand. If Mark confessed, she would be exposed!

Thinking of this, Jeanne broke into a cold sweat. She took a deep breath and glanced at August

quickly. Then

she immediately stood up, pretending to be angry, and walked quickly towards Mark.

"Mark! What's the matter with you?!"

Mark looked up at Jeanne, moved his lips, and hesitated.

Jeanne frowned and said coldly, "What on earth did you do to make August so angry? And what's

wrong with

the motorcycle?”

With that she took advantage of the opportunity to turn her back to August and winked at Mark,

When Mark took the hint, he took a deep breath, lowered his eyes, and looked at the ground, "Miss,

I have

nothing to argue with now."

Jeanne clenched her fists, and her face flushed with anger, "What exactly did you do?"

Mark took a deep breath and said word by word. "The motorcycle was arranged by me. I originally

wanted to

teach Lucia a lesson. But you suddenly appeared and stopped the motorcycle for her... You were

injured and

hospitalized. It's all my fault.”

When Jeanne heard this, she pretended to be surprised and turned to look at August, "August... is

what he said

true?”

August snorted coldly, and his eyes turned cold, "Teach her a lesson? I think you were trying to kill

her!"

Since the last time he sensed Mark's abnormality, he had sent someone to investigate him. Mark

had appeared

in the surveillance near the Lion Group on the day of the motorcycle accident. So he followed the

clues and

found the scene of him meeting the motorcycle rider...

He was completely sure of everything, so he dared to come directly to the Kelly family's villa to see

Mark.

Unexpectedly. Mark was quite straightforward, and he admitted it so quickly

August stood up, walked towards Mark aggressively, stopped in front of him, and asked coldly. "Tell

me, why did

you want to teach Lucia a lesson?"

He and Lucia had no grudges against each other and he had no reason to hurt her at all unless...

August turned

his head and looked coldly at Jeanne next to him,
