Her eyes wandering and her voice weak, August couldn't tell whether she was drunk or not, but the hand around his neck just wouldn't let go.
August had no choice but to stay in that position, "Well, what is it?"
Lucia muttered, "Today...
Thank you for coming over to accompany my dad for his birthday......"
With that, she suddenly giggled, "Thank you ......"
Immediately after that, she raised her chin and kissed August.
August was stunned and felt like his face was on fire, tingling constantly He frowned, anger arising in his heart.
This is the first time he has been kissed in this way.
Is this considered a forced kiss? Wrapping her arms around him, Lucia giggled again.
She was completely unconscious.
It seemed that she was really drunk.
Looking at her like this, the anger in August's heart dissipated unconsciously.
With resignation, he pulled Lucia's hands away and tuck her in.
"Have a good rest."
Lucia reached out and grabbed his hand, pleading like a rogue, "You stay here with me....."
August frowned and had no idea what to do for a while.
He didn't expect Lucia to be like this when she was drunk Turner happened to see this when she came over to deliver the tea.
She couldn't help but smile, "Sir, Lucia relies on you.
At this time, it's better for you to stay with her."
August looked down at the woman on the bed and the thought to leave suddenly disappeared.
Ultimately, he should be held accountable for her being bullied.
Now, he couldn't leave her alone.
"Sir, shall I feed Lucia the tea?"
August hesitated for a second and whispered, "No, I'll feed her."
Hearing that, Turner smiled secretly and nodded, and then quietly left the room.
August reached out and gently patted her cheek, "Get up and drink your tea."
Lucia was too drunk.
She frowned and turned her head directly, ignoring the tea completely.
It was impossible to let her get up and drink the tea herself.
August pulled his hand out of her hand, picked up the cup, and fed it to her mouth with a spoon.
Lucia smelled the scent and frowned.
She just wouldn't open her mouth.
"Are you sure you don't want to drink the tea?"
August's eyebrows throbbed.
He had never persuaded anyone like this.
If it were someone else, he would have run out of patience.
However, Lucia made it different.
Seemingly startled by his sudden seriousness, Lucia shook her head, opened her eyes slightly, and said softly, "I'll drink ......"
By August's threats and entreaties, Lucia drank most of the tea.
Finally, she couldn't resist sleepiness and fell asleep.
Lucia was fast asleep.
August glanced at her and breathed deeply with relief.
He quietly withdrew from the room and closed the door.
Just as he wanted to go back to the bedroom beside him and rest, the phone suddenly rang at this time, "Sir, she just has a nightmare and desperately wants to see you."
Hearing this, August suddenly tightened his hand holding the phone.
He frowned, and without hesitation, immediately spoke, "I'm going there now!"
Hanging up the phone, he didn't say a word, grabbed his jacket, and hurried out.
Finally, he disappeared in the sinking twilight
The next day.
Lucia turned over and opened her eyes as the sunshine shone into the room.
Her head was heavy and a little painful.
She raised her hand, rubbed her temples, and sat up. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Trying to recall what happened yesterday, she suddenly couldn't remember anything.
It seemed that last night she was really drunk! Lucia sighed and got up to walk to the bathroom.
Going out of the bathroom, Lucia paced to the first floor, just as Turner had breakfast ready.
"Ma'am, breakfast is ready."
Looking around, Lucia didn't see August, so asked, "Where is August?"
"Sir left last night.
It seemed that he needed to handle something in a hurry."
Turner came over and pulled Lucia towards the table, "It's normal for sir, such a figure, to be busy, but I can see that he cares much about you.
He was the one who took care of you when you were drunk yesterday..."
"Huh?"
Lucia was surprised, "he took care of me?"
She had also been drunk before for several times.
Her friends said that she wasn't good at drinking and couldn't stop being mad when she got drunk.
So she worried that she had done something improper last night.
Thinking about this, Lucia immediately had a panic fear and felt cold even on her back.
If she was mad after drinking too much in front of Ms.
Mitchell or her friends, it would be fine, but in front of August, she really dared not to imagine the scene.
"I haven't seen sir being so careful of anyone!"
Turner didn't notice the change in Lucia's face and smilingly pulled her to sit down at the dining table.
Lucia's cheeks reddened, not sure if it was out of shame or shyness.
Eventually, she smiled and didn't answer, starting to eat the porridge.
"By the way, ma'am, do you have any plans for today?"
Hearing this, Lucia stopped with a sudden pause.
As she planned yesterday, if nothing happened, she would go back to work today.
Several days had passed from the day of the accident to now, and the wound on her neck had almost healed.
Besides, she had nothing but boredom staying alone at home.
It was better to go back to work.
Lucia smiled at Turner, "I'm planning to go back to work today."
Even now she had married August officially, she knew very well that she couldn't rely on August for the rest of her life.
After breakfast, Lucia simply packed up and immediately went to the office.
Just as she arrived at the office area of her department, some colleagues saw her with some indefinable complexity.
Lucia tightened her lips.
She was just promoted a few days ago, and then she didn't come to work for days in a row.
So her colleagues in the department must have been suspicious.
