Lucia stood aside.
Hearing the strange conversation between them, she became more and more curious.
Even if August and Bishop were not real brothers, their relationship should not be as strained as it was
now.
August's eyes were dark and cold.
He didn't answer, but asked nonchalantly, "Bishop, you don't have to pretend in front of me."
With that, he turned around and left quickly without hesitation.
Burton glanced at Paula next to him and followed silently.
Lucia looked at Bishop in the wheelchair and smiled at him awkwardly.
Then she took Paula, who was confused and turned to leave.
After walking a few steps away, Paula finally came to her sense.
She looked at Lucia curiously and asked in a low voice, "Lucia, is that August's younger brother just
now?"
Lucia nodded slightly and remained silent.
"Damn!"
Paula sighed, "His younger brother in the wheelchair is so gentle and handsome! He even helped us
out.He looks like a good person! Why did August treat him like that?"
Lucia took a deep breath and said softly, "I don't know much about the Adams family.Paula, don't talk
nonsense in front of August."
She had experienced it herself and she could understand.
August was reluctant to say much about his younger brother.
If Paula brought it up abruptly, he would probably be mad.
After leaving Weske, the atmosphere was less tense.
Paula sighed and couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect to fall into Gigi's hands today! Well, just thinking
about it makes me angry."
"It's all over.Don't think about it anymore."
Lucia patted Paula's back and comforted her.
When she looked up, she saw August and Burton walking not far ahead, and suddenly thought of
something, "Oh, Paula, are you familiar with Burton?"
The last time she was trapped in the bathroom of the box by Ted, Paula had brought Burton to rescue
her.
She forgot to ask last time, but this time Paula called Burton again and even brought August.
When suddenly asked this question, Paula looked a little awkward and she quickly denied, "I'm not
familiar with him.I've only met him a few times!"
Lucia was even more confused, "You met a few times? Have you met in private?"
Under her repeated questioning, Paula blushed and faltered, which made Lucia wonder.
Paula said, "Of course not.Lucia, don't think too much!"
Seeing that her usual carefree friend was blushing now, Lucia couldn't help but want to laugh.She had
just discovered an inexplicable ambiguity between Paula and Burton, but she hadn't expected it to be
true.
"Alright, I will stop."
Lucia smiled and walked forward.She looked up and saw August standing beside the car waiting for
them.She stopped smiling and saw Burton walking over.
Burton walked to Paula's side and said softly, "I'll take you home."
Paula cast a sideways glance at him, and refused bluntly, "No, thanks.I'm with Lucia."
When she finished it, she looked up and saw August staring at them not far away.
She suddenly realized something, turned her head quickly, and looked at Lucia, "Lucia, are you leaving
with him?"She felt like a third wheel.
Lucia took a deep breath, looked at Paula, and said softly, "Paula, let Burton take you back.You drank
just now and can't drive anymore."
Hearing her words, Paula remembered that she had drunk alcohol.
She glanced at Burton beside her, and then agreed unhappily, "Okay."
Watching Paula and Burton left, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief and then walked toward August.She
knew very well that he had deliberately asked Burton to take Paula away so that she would be left
alone.
He probably had something to tell her.
When she walked to the car, August had already gotten into the car.
Lucia gritted her teeth and followed.
The car door was closed, isolating the outside world.
The car was silent, and Lucia could almost hear her heartbeat.
August didn't say anything.
He started the car neatly.
He was driving fast and it didn't take long before they arrived at the gate of Lucia's apartment complex.
Along the way, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was awkward and strange.
After suffering all the way, when they finally reached the gate of the community, Lucia secretly breathed
a sigh of relief, and quickly said, "Here I am.I'm sorry for causing you trouble today."
With that, she stretched out her hand to push the car door.
But as soon as her hand touched the car door, he pressed her left hand.
She turned her head and met August's deep eyes.
She couldn't help feeling a little flustered.
He said lightly, "Lucia, an apology should at least be sincere."
His eyes were sharp and intimidating.
She could feel August's suppressed emotions and faint anger, but she didn't know how to deal with it,
let alone why he was angry.
Was it because of her? Or Bishop? Or both? She couldn't see through.
Lucia bit her lips and took a deep breath, "Well, how are you going to calm down?"
August tightened his grip on her wrist suddenly, and stared at her with dark eyes, "You know I'm
angry?"
Lucia looked at the angry flames in his eyes and nodded slightly.
August pursed his lips tightly and said solemnly, "Then tell me, why am I angry?"
Lucia took a deep breath and mustered her courage, "Because I caused you trouble...and you bumped
into Bishop."
When he heard this, his face darkened a bit.
Indeed, he was angry partly because of Bishop.
But he was angry mostly because she was bold enough to go to places like Weske in a revealing dress
and cared about another man before she left! He frowned, stared at his innocent eyes, and said coldly,
"Stupid!"
Lucia was scolded for no reason.
She was a little angry, "Did I say something wrong? Then tell me, why are you angry?"
Suddenly being provoked, August became even angrier.
She was indeed a little wild cat! She was sharp when she got angry.
What was more, when she got angry, she lifted her chin high, revealing her slender and white neck as
well as the beautiful curves of her breasts.
August's heart tightened, and then he felt a rush of heat rising in his body, and even his throat was a
little tight.
After meeting her, he felt his self-control was getting worse and worse, and he was turned on at such a
time! Looking at her stubborn eyes, August frowned.
He let go of her wrist, turned around, started the car, and drove into the community.
Lucia was stunned for a moment and then quickly said, "What are you doing?"
Was he going to her small apartment again? Seeing that August didn't mean to stop and drove directly
to the building where she lived, she was even more flustered, "August, what on earth are you going to
do?"
August didn't speak.
He drove the car downstairs, parked it, and then turned around.
He slowly approached her, and the distance between them narrowed inch by inch.
His eyes were deep and his voice was indifferent and domineering, "Lucia, what do you think I'm going
to do?"
What was he going to do? Didn't she know it?
