Chapter 063

Lucia moved her lips and she had so many things to tell Paula, but these things could not be said over the phone. In the end, all the words turned into a question, "Paula, what would you do if you got married and found out your husband

cheated on you?" "Divorcel" Paula said without hesitation, "Lucia, have you forgotten what we said before? First, we must marry the man we love and who loves us! Second, we will not tolerate marital infidelity!" Lucia felt some bitterness, "I didn't forget..." She had always thought so, but she hadn't even followed the first rule of the principle, and now she wasn't sure if she could follow the second On the other end of the phone, Paula belatedly sensed that something was wrong, "Why are you asking me this all of a sudden? Did you..."

Lucia panicked and immediately explained, "No! I was just feeling something after hearing a colleague talk about herself..." Paula was relieved to hear her say so, "I was scared to death and I thought you were talking about yourself! All in all, I'm still sticking to what I thought at the time and will never change!" Hearing Paula's words on the other end of the phone, Lucia also affirmed slightly, "Well, I will too." She actually didn't follow the first rule. August and she got married in a hurry, without thinking about love or non-love. Then all she wanted was to live a good life with him, but now it seemed that he had something to hide from her and he might have another woman! She must not accept it, which was her bottom line and principle of marriage! Lucia suddenly figured it out, "Okay, Paula, I got it and I'll let you go. Call me when you're here." Hanging up the phone, Lucia took a deep breath and made sure of her thoughts. It seemed that she would have to find time to have a good talk with August.

At night, it was gloomy outside and due to a little rain, it became cool and the air was wetter. Lucia sat on the couch and looked up at the clock on the wall. It was after nine o'clock and August shall be back by now. Not a moment later, the sound of a car rang out from outside the house. Soon, the door was pushed open and the tall

August appeared in the foyer. Lucia straightened the clothes on her, got up, and walked towards him, taking the initiative, "You're back?" "Mmm." August glanced up at her lightly, then continued to change his shoes. As soon as she approached and smelled the faint smell of alcohol on him, Lucia couldn't help but frown and poured a glass of water to hand to him. August took it indifferently. After a few sips, he saw that she hadn't left yet, so he asked, "What else?" Lucia took a deep breath, "I want to talk to you." With his dark eyes, he put the cup down and said quietly, "Go ahead."

Lucia clenched her fists. Although she was a little timid, she still plucked up the courage to ask, "Do you have... another woman?"

After saying these words, she obviously felt August become somewhat somber, and the atmosphere around him seem to be colder.

After a moment's pause, a cold light swept through August's eyes, and he spoke in a deep voice, "Let's talk about it some other time."

He could sense that Lucia was angry now. His confession at this time would only make her angrier, and then she would be

even less likely to agree to donate her kidney. After saying that, he walked in the direction of the stairway. Seeing his attitude like this, Lucia was extremely disappointed. She was more afraid that he was hiding everything from her! And she, as his wife, clearly had the right to know all about him! Lucia stepped forward and reached out to take his arm, "Why can't you say it now?

If he was going to say it sooner or later, why didn't he just tell her now? August stopped, frowned, and suppressed the anger in his eyes. He was already anxious because of Jeanne's surgery and the company's business. Now he had to face Lucia's questioning when he got home, so he was naturally annoyed.

He spoke, his voice sounding like it was rolling in his throat, "Do you have to have an answer today?"

Lucia clenched her fist and gritted her teeth, "Yes." She just wanted him to give her an answer! August scowled and his lips pursed into a line. A moment later, he lifted his lips and said, "If you think so." After saying this, he let go of her and walked away, leaving Lucia alone in the same place. As expected, he really had another woman.

Lucia was so disappointed that she felt her limbs a little numb. She sucked in a mouthful of cold air and took a long time to

slow down. At first, she felt she was married to a perfect man and even without feelings, they could slowly cultivate and lived well. But now, the reality was like a basin of ice water that splashed her awake directly. Tossing in bed, Lucia stayed awake all night. By the time dawn broke, Lucia rubbed her astringent eyes before falling asleep, still in a messy mood. When she woke up, it was already noon. Lucia went downstairs and had something to eat. Then, she drank her medicine and

sat bored in the living room.

August didn't let her go to the office, but she had nothing to do at home, so, she could easily think about August and got even more troubled.

Suddenly, the cell phone on the table vibrated. Picking it up and seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Lucia took a deep breath and absentmindedly pressed the answer button, "Hello?" A nice male voice with a smile came from the other end of the phone, "Do you miss me?" Lucia froze and instantly sobered up a bit. She had thought it was a harassing call, but the caller baffled her with the first sentence. "Who...who are you?" Were all harassing phone calls nowadays so special?

The caller laughed even more happily, "Lucia, don't you even remember me?" Lucia froze for a moment and suddenly remembered a certain face. Then she responded, "Ja- Jamie?" "I knew you couldn't have forgotten me." Jamie said flirtatiously as always, "You still owe me a meal, remember?" Lucia took a deep breath, which calmed her down a bit, "I remember." "Let's go eat tonight and I've already subscribed the dining room." Lucia hesitated for a moment, "I..." She was not in the mood to go out for dinner right now, let alone have to deal with him.

"What? No time?" Jamie smiled, "Or do you want to renege on the bill?"

Hearing what he said, Lucia was speechless at once. She did promise Jamie that she owed him a meal, and it just so happened that she had nothing to do at home, so she might as well promise him. "Okay, you send me the address." "Okay, I'll send it now."

Not long after, Lucia's phone vibrated and she received a text message. Lucia suddenly remembered something, "By the way, how do you know my cell phone number?" Jamie smiled to his heart's content, 'I can know whenever I want." Lucia helplessly said, "Okay." He could even find out her relationship with August, not to mention her cell phone number.

Lucia said, about to hang up. 'That's it." Before she hung up, Jamie's voice came from the other side of the phone, "By the way, remember to dress formally for the night!"
