Lucia was stunned She looked up at August and widened her eyes
How will this workâ
The teacher asked for a family photo But August
Lucia couldnt make a decision
Paul was not here, and the kids needed to send the photos to the teacher in time
Timothy looked at the time Mom, before it's too lateâ¢
Lucia took a deep breath She looked at August, and, after encouraging herself, said, "Well lets take a
picture '
August was smiling brightly He asked, What photoâ
Lucia hurriedly said, "It's nothing
Timothy cut in anxiously, Our teacher asked us to take a picture of our family when we go out and
play It s homework *
Hearing this. August repeated the kids words, âFamilyâ
He didn t dislike the word
Lucia flushed and said, "It s not what you think"
Hearing her words, August silently smiled He stood up and let the kids stand before him and Lucia
He then reached out his long arm to
take her phone After setting into selfie mode, he clicked the shutter button
In the photo, the kids were smiling brightly August also showed a rare gentle expression Only Lucia
seemed to be at a loss, looking dumbfounded but lovely
August looked at the photo and beamed with satisfaction He then sent the photo to his phone and
handed the phone back to the kids "It s doneâ
"Yeah We can hand in homework now
Happily, Timothy sent the photo to their teacher
"Okay' Doneâ
When he handed the phone back to Lucia, the teacher had already replied
The teacher texted, [What a loving family!]
Lucia was even more dumbfounded now, and was rendered speechless.
All of them are so fastâ
She turned around and found August put both his hands on both the kids They were looking at the
scenery outside the window, and they themselves made a beautiful scenery
Lucia had a strange feeling in her heart
If those things never happened and she kept being together with August, she and August must be a
happy couple with the lovely kids.
Suddenly, the box shook slightly, and brought Lucia back to reality abruptly
She couldnt help wondering why she had such thoughts?
She patted her cheeks to calm herself down At this moment, they had finished a round She stood
up and led the kids out of the box
It was hot this day Near noon, the sun was even more dazzling August found the kids keep sweating
and said to Lucia, "Let's find a place
to rest It's almost lunchtimeâ
Lucia also found that the kids were tired She nodded "Okay"
There was a specialty restaurant not far away They went in and found a vacant table After they sat
down, a waiter brought them menu They ordered several dishes as well as two kidsâ set meals Lucia
took out wet tissue from her bag and wiped the kids hands clean Soon, the wet tissue turned from
its original white into black Lucia took the opportunity to educate them, "See the dirt on your
handsâ Do remember to wash or wipe your hands before every meal, okayâ
Janet nodded as she watched Lucia wiping her hands and then putting away the unused wet tissues
The little girl turned to August and then to her mother, and said hesitantly, "Mom, you hadn t wiped
Uncle Charming s hands yet"
Lucia was stunned numb by her daughter's words She looked up and found the man also looking at
her. She was at a loss for words Janet took a sip of the juice that had been served just now, and
echoed his sister, 'Yes, yes. Mom, didn't you tell us that everyone needs to
clean his hand before meals?" / j
August smirked. Intentionally or not, he reached out his hands in front of Lucia and said smilingly,
"Help me, please *
Lucia's face turned pale as she was in such a dilemma She didnt know whether she should help him
or not After all, she had taught the kids a minute ago If she refused, she would be swallowing her
own words
She took a breath and extracted a wet tissue from her bag She had intended to muddle through,
but, unexpectedly, her wrists were grabbed as soon as she put the tissue on the mans hand
She was startled In her fluster, she looked up and met the mans black eyes Her heart skipped a beat
What what are you doingâ¢
How could he do this in front of Timothy and Janetâ
She wanted to shake off his grip Unexpectedly again, he took the tissue from her hand and wiped
her wrist for her
She didn't find the dirt on her wrist until then
August wiped her hands clean quickly, and then he said, "Don't forget your own hands next time
Luc a froze with shock Her heart was pounding so fast, and. before she knew it, she had blushed
Janet nodded and echoed, Yes, Uncle Charming is right
Lucia was so flustered Fortunately, the waiter happened to come serving dishes at this moment,
which helped her cover her
embarrassment and panic
She lost all her appetite for the dishes.
But August, on the contrary, seemed to be easy and composed He not only ate a lot, but also took
good care of the kids
When the dishes were to be finished, Janet kept looking aside Lucia patted her little head and
reminded, âFocus on your meal, babeâ
Janet looked up and fixed her innocent big eyes on her mother She said softly and cutely. Mom, I
also wanna strawberry cake *
Lucia looked aside and found a child sitting on the table besides them was eating strawberry cake
She shook her head to Janet and wiped the girl's mouth with a tissue. No You can t eat strawberry
Last time you had strawberry, red
spots covered your body They were so itchy Do you rememberâ"
Hearing this, Janet said pitifully, âBut mom, I just want a bite.â
Lucia pretended to be angry and said with a dark face "No. you're allergic to strawberry You can't
eat it"
August, who was siting opposite Luci, was shocked by Luca's words, He unwittingly held the water glass with more strength
Janet should be allergic to strawberry
He was 350 allergic to strawberry when he was 2 boy, but ne recovereg when he got ice He dient expect
Something tugged Augusts heartstrings Doubs flooded his mind, making hm feel somehow hard to breathe
Would my guesses be correctâ
He looked up at Janet and Timothy and had a complex feeling
At this moment, worried footsteps approached Then, a male voice sounded Lucia
Lucia was shocked by the voice Sh looked back 3nd found Paul walking towards her
Lucia fet ustered She hurriedly stood up and watches him approaching the fost
Paul walked to the table, looked atthe ics, and finally landed his gaze on August
August seemed composed. He did't fel awkward or panic a all He even smiled at Paul ir Tomas, we meet agai.
Fire of rage was burning violently in Paul s hart His hands clenched tight, and veins on his arms stood out
His patience had been Wor out when he saw them dining together
