Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 758 – Cooperation with the Treatment
Edmund looked at the smile on Lucia’s face and felt warm in his heart. He smiled and said, “You are different from the mothers of other
children…” “Hmm?” Lucia didn’t immediately understand the meaning behind his words and didn’t answer him.
Edmund shook his head lightly and suddenly reached out his hand to her. “Mr. Shea…” Subconsciously, Lucia wanted to dodge, but Edmund stopped her.
He did not touch her, but placed one hand behind her head, leaving a safe distance and putting the other hand over her head. In the next second, Edmund took a withered yellow leaf away from Lucia’s hair. “Ms. Mitchell, what did you want to say?”
The smile on Edmund’s face was still elegant and warm, but it made Lucia a little embarrassed. She thought that this man was going to…
“Mr. Shea, you should spend more time with Philip. He looked quite lonely during the last parent activity.”
Lucia quickly changed the subject. Hearing this, Edmund looked embarrassed. “Miss Mitchell, I want you to do me a favor which I hope won’t cause you too much bother.” Lucia was confused for a moment, then, without the slightest hesitation, she nodded.
Edmund seemed surprised as if he didn’t expect her to agree so easily. “I don’t want to give up on Philip. Since you can change him, I hope you can help me to treat him.” Hearing this, Philip’s hollow eyes flashed in Lucia’s mind, and the bitterness in her heart became stronger.
She responded softly, “If there’s anything I can do to help, then I would be willing to.” Edmund breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at her tenderly. He said, “How do I thank you for that? How about I treat you to dinner another day?”
“No need. It’s nothing.” Lucia hurriedly waved her hand to refuse. “Philip hasn’t been to a restaurant yet. I wanted to…” Edmund was hesitant to
finish his words, and he was clearly disappointed. He thought about it for a moment then said, “Sorry, I didn’t think clearly.”
Seeing his expression, Lucia felt sorry for him. After a brief pondering, she replied with a smile, “My husband and I want to treat Philip
to a meal at home. He also really likes Philip.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Edmund Shea’s eyes behind the gold glasses turned dark, but the smile on his face was still warm,
“Thank you and your husband.” As the two of them were talking, no one noticed that not far away, a malicious gaze was staring at them.
Currer Sullen raised the phone, took a picture, and then put it down. Looking at the photo on the screen, an evil smile appeared on her
face. She entered the phone number that was engraved in her mind and sent the photo out without hesitation.
In the photo, Lucia and Edmund looked at each other with faint smiles on their faces. They looked like a perfect match.
The office was eerily quiet, and the atmosphere here was ice cold. August’s face was gloomy.
He threw the phone to Burton and ordered coldly, “Go and investigate who sent it here.” When Burton saw the photo, his face turned livid. He nodded and left with that phone. “President, we didn’t find much information about the man in the photo.
I only found out that his child’s name is Philip Shea. Philip is a classmate of Ms. Janet and Mr. Timothy. Today is Betterea primary school’s
parent meeting. Madam and this man should just happen to meet each other.”
Philip Shea…. The look in August’s eyes grew darker and darker. His fingers hold the pen tightly. He looked up and asked coldly, “Where are the photos.
from?” After a brief pause, Burton replied, “It’s an anonymous phone.
The person who sent this to us seems to don’t want us to know their identity and left no clue. We still haven’t found who did this.” August looked at him sternly.
His gaze was as sharp as a knife, and Burton immediately lowered his head and said respectfully, “President, I’m willing to take the punishment.”
“It’s not your fault. Keep investigating.” After that, the office fell into silence again.
August looked at the photo with a gloomy expression, and the atmosphere around him was getting colder. Lucia had an opponent with a
formidable anti-reconnaissance ability concealed by her side. Moreover, this person was paying attention to Lucia’s every move at all times.
What was this person trying to do…? It was not until the good smell of the food wafted out of the dining room that Lucia returned home with Timothy and Janet. As soon as she entered, she felt that the atmosphere at home was a little strange.
Mrs. Turner took her coat and said worriedly, “Mr. Adams went straight to the study after returning, Madam, would you like to go take a
look?” Lucia didn’t know what happened.
She entered the study room with the dishes prepared by Mrs. Turner. It was a cold winter day, but the air conditioner was still on. Lucia couldn’t
help shivering as she entered the room. She asked in concern, “Did something happen in the company?”
August did not respond to her but just stared at her indifferently. Lucia felt uneasy under his gaze and couldn’t help but leaned forward. Before she could step down, she felt the man hold her wrist, and the next second, she had fallen into August’s warm embrace.
Before Lucia could react to what was going on, August’s ice-cold kisses had already fallen on her skin. The air in the room is gradually becoming hot. August’s kisses were having an indescribable invasive force, wantonly plundering and stirring her feelings.
Lucia mumbled softly as her small hands gradually climbed onto August’s firm chest. The warmth in the room gradually dissipated.
Lying in August’s arms, Lucia murmured in a low voice, “Mrs. Turner said that you haven’t had dinner. What happened?”
“Just some small troubles,” he replied coldly, and then casually asked, “Why did you come
back so late?”
Lucia smiled gently and told August what had happened in primary school in detail. When
she mentioned Philip’s treatment, her eyes were still shining.
“Why are you caring about that child so much?” August’s gaze darkened slightly, his tone
was slightly displeasure.
Seeing the change in his attitude, Lucia’s smile froze on her face. She asked, “Why can’t
we feel the same way about that? Can you really understand my feelings as a mother?”
“You can’t replace his mother,” August replied with an indifferent expression.
Hearing that, Lucia frowned at August as if she was looking at a stranger. She said,
“You’ve met Philip. He’s about the same age as our kids. He deserves a normal childhood,
not like this.”
A chill ran down her spine and she clenched the hem of her clothes subconsciously. The
two of them got along so well these days that she gradually forgot that August did not
understand something like sympathy and did not have much affection for other people.
August’s aura turned cold. He looked sideways at her and asked with a faint smile, “Do
you think you’re more capable than a professional doctor?”
Lucia was unable to refute him. But she was pissed off by his attitude. Lucia raised her
chin stubbornly and looked him in the eyes. “You’re right. However, I will do my best.”
The room fell into silence. She looked into his deep eyes quietly, and her heart was
pounding like crazy.
After a long time, he pursed his thin lips and replied slowly, “Don’t forget your identity.”
“You…” Lucia was stunned for two seconds. A gentle smile gradually appeared on her
face.
Then, she threw herself into August’s arms with excitement.
