Chapter 374 Cut the Head off the Snake
"The biggest difference between real blood and synthetic blood is the smell Real blood is very fishy
while
Lucis was listening intently to August when the man suddenly jumped out from the corner He was
dressed in white. His lond, dark hair
covering his face contrasted with his hollow, red eyes.
Lucia screamed and subconsciously dodged, Suddenly, she hit a strong chest. She was so scared
that she wrapped her arms around the
person's waist without looking up "Ah! Stay away from met Her heart kept pounding and she
subconsciously tightened her grip
Suddenly, a strong arm was put on her shoulder and patted her back
"It's okay, August said in a low, soft voice.
Lucia stiffened and looked up quickly. When she saw August's handsome face before her eyes, she
felt her blood turn cold and her brain turn blank
August was amused by her stunned look "You've scared the ghost away. Aren't you letting go of
me?"
Lucia let go at once, pushed him away, and took a few steps back "Mom, are you okay?" "Mom
Hearing the two childrenâs voices, Lucia calmed down She took their hands and blushed when she
looked up at August again. "I'm fine
Let's go. She gritted her teeth to clear her head and led the children quickly forward Along the way,
Lucia's heart kept pounding It wasn't because she was scared. She just felt August's voice echoing in
her ears. "Aren't you
letting go of me?" Her face got even redder and she subconsciously walked faster, trying to get out
as soon as possible
Finally, they walked out. Lucia took Timothy and Janet aside to distance them from August August
looked down at them and asked, "Timothy, Janet what else do you want to do?"
"l want to ride the roller coaster
Lucia gritted her teeth and interrupted Timothy. "No, it's getting late. We should go back.â
Timothy pouted in disappointment. Lucia didn't want to disappoint them, but thinking about what
Jeanne had said today, she said to August firmly and seriously, "Mr. Adams,
we'd better not meet privately. We're both with someone, after all, I don't want any problems.â
August sensed something even though Lucia didnt say it directly. He wanted to say something, but
Lucia walked away firmly with
Timothy and Janet Timothy and Janet both turned their heads to look at him reluctantly
Instantly, he couldnt breathe as if his heart was clenched by a big invisible hand For some reason,
every time Lucia walked away firmly.
he was uncomfortable and frustrated
As the three walked away slowly, August took out his phone and called Burton
"Did something happen on the set today that I don't know about?" Otherwise, why had Lucia's
attitude suddenly changed? Burton hesitated for a moment before saying, "Ms. Kelly went there
today.
August narrowed his eyex coldly at once. He had a bad feeling Jeanne? Why did she go to the set?
Did she go to see Lucia?
Just then, Burton suddenly asked, "Sir, do you want me to."
Before he could finish. August said, "No I know what to do.â
Burton immediately nodded
August thought for a moment and suid coldly, "Golo Fountain Mansion tonight
Meanwhile, in Fountain Mansion, Jeanne was sitting on the couch fiddling with her nails with a fresh
coat of nail polish After a few
seconds, she looked up at Mark, who was standing in front of her "What's wrong? What's so
important we have to meet?"
Mark lowered his head. His long bangs drooped and hid the scar on his brow. "Miss, I've been
watching Lucia since you came out of the
salan park and went to get a facial this afternoon She met up with August around 500 and they
went to Pleasant Valley next door together
"What!" Jeanne sat up straight and stared in surprise August hadn't been there when she arrived at
the sofari park this afternoon Director
Brook had also said that August hadnt been there for days. Why did he show up as soon as I left?
Mark took out his phone and showed Jeanne a photo of August, Lucia, Timothy, and Janet lined up
in front of the haunted house They
stood together like a family of lour!
Jeanne was furious. In the afternoon, Lucia had said firmly that she would keep her distance from August, but they had
met as usual after
she leftâ Lucia, do you really think I won't do anything to you? Jeanne clenched his lists, the nails digging deep into her
palms "Looks like
I don't have to show her any more mercy!" She looked up at Mark with a sinister look on her face "Mark, what do you
suggest?â
Mark narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "Cut the head off the snake. You have to make her scared and run away
once and for all
That's the most useful way"
Jeanne immediately nodded in agreement. âYou're right! But what does Lucia care about most?â Mark said evilly, "Her
children, of course.â Jeanne's eyes lit up. After a moment, she nodded firmly. âExactly!â In the afternoon, Lucia had been
very concerned about her children on the set. Besides, the father of the two children was August. Jeanne
wouldn't let them go. She decided to teach Lucia a good lesson this time!
A glint of coldness passed across Jeanneâs eyes. "Mark, this is all yours. I want you to do it yourself
Mark immediately nodded. "Yes, miss.â
