Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 774 – You spy on me!
Lucia quickly looked up as she heard footsteps and saw Edmund standing behind her. Her eyes exhibited a hint of bewilderment, “Why do you return?
Didn’t you say you were going to have a meeting?”
“The meeting was canceled.” Edmund appeared unaffected when his soft gaze landed on her, and he asked, “Did Phillip cause any trouble?” Hearing this, Lucia quickly shook her head, touching Phillip’s head, and responded, “Phillip is the most lovely child I have ever seen.
Taking care of him is a worry-free thing, so you don’t have to worry too much.” Edmund lowered his eyes with her voice, and his eyes rested on her white
elegant neck. Then his eyes darkened slightly, “Don’t you like what Phillip gave you?”
Unconsciously, she caressed her empty neck following his eyes and pulled out a smile full of apologies, “I’m not in the habit of wearing these cumbersome things, and I have my own husband and children, so it is not always proper to wear gifts from others.”
Husband and children…. Why did she keep mentioning another man…. He would never allow these obstacles between them!
Edmund’s eyes darkened and his voice cooled down a lot.
“I thought you were really kind to Phillip, but I didn’t think he was just a dispensable outsider to you.” Upon hearing this, Lucia was dazed and uneasy for some reason.
Her relationship with Edmund was not even that of a friend, but he seemed to regard her as an integral part of Phillip’s life, which made her very uncomfortable. “Phillip is a friend of Timothy and Janet. I will be kind to him naturally, but nothing else.”
As she spoke, she got up and picked up her coat and handbag. “Now that you’re back, I won’t be here for long. Timothy and Janet are still waiting for me in the studio.” Seeing that she was leaving, Edmund leaned slightly and blocked her steps,
saying, “It’s very kind of you to make this special trip. It’s impolite for me to let you go home hungry. I’ll treat you to dinner.”
When Lucia caught a glimpse of his subtle movements, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled together, and her tone was more alienated,
“You’re welcome, Mr. Shea If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first.” “Lucia!” He was in a hurry to stop her movements and explained in a low voice,
“The aunt asked for leave to go home. Phillip and I can only go hungry at home, so we can take this opportunity to have a meal together…”
Lucia gave him a chilly gaze. The watchfulness in her eyes grew more pronounced. Phillip instantly got off the sofa and hurried over to Lucia, giving her a strong hug and putting on a saddened expression while his eyes were filled with obvious reluctance, and kept murmuring “mom”.
Seeing this, Lucia’s heart softened. She squatted down to gently persuade, “I will come and see you another day. Will you play with Dad at home?”
Phillip shook his head sadly. His bright eyes immediately filled with tears, and the grip of his hands on Lucia tightened.
Edmund looked at this scene with eyes flashing with a sinister light. “Since Ms. Mitchell has other matters to attend to”, Edmund pretended to be in a jam and said, “It wouldn’t be nice of me to insist on your staying.” Edmund turned his eyes to Phillip, with a slight reproach in his tone.
“Phillip should behave yourself in front of mom, or she won’t come. to see you again.”
When Lucia heard that Edmund followed Phillip in addressing her “mom,” she
clenched her eyebrows and spaced the words for emphasis, “Phillip is very
young. The definition of his mother in his life should not be me. Mr. Shea should
also think more about Phillip and give him a complete home as soon as
possible.”
Hearing this, Edmund immediately sensed that Lucia was unhappy. He quickly
pulled out an embarrassed smile and explained it to her in a soft voice.
“I know it’s self-centered and very offensive for me to address you as Phillip’s
mother. But given Phillip’s condition, I am compelled to follow his thoughts for the
time being and ask for your forgiveness.”
“Mom…”
Phillip was aware of the change in the atmosphere. His voice choked when he
called her again. Then he reluctantly withdrew his grip on
Lucia and looked at her timidly.
Lucia heaved a sigh, gritted her teeth, held back her warm emotions toward
Phillip, and responded, “I’m not good at cooking. It’s just
The sound of closing the door sounded in the empty living room, and Edmund’s
eyes were like an abyss, deep and unpredictable. He leaned down, held Phillip in
his arms, and asked in a low voice, “Do you like this mother?”
Earnestly and hard, Phillip nodded his head. Seeing this, Edmund smiled with
satisfaction. The voice of Edmund’s sinister voice sounded again, “Then you
must always be clingy to your mother, or she will abandon you and never want
you again…”
At this moment, the same gloomy atmosphere went on in the Thomas family’s old
residence. Paul looked at Andrew and Currer with gloomy eyes, and asked in a
cold voice, “If I hadn’t accidentally discovered it, how long would you plan to
jointly keep it from me?” “Mr. Thomas, Master Thomas and I do this just for the
sake of the company,” Currer responded with a smile.
“If this is the case, you should target the Lion group, not Lucia!” Paul glanced at
her coldly and asked sarcastically, “Is it for the company or for your own selfish
desires?”
Seeing Paul’s provocative demeanor, Andrew lashed out at the table with a hard
stroke. Andrew’s eyes flashed a piercing light as he snapped, “We do all these
purely for your good! Aren’t you bent on taking over the Lion group? She’s
helping you!”
“I’m not interested in Lion group or Lucia at all. She’s Paula’s friend. I won’t let
her get the slightest harm.” Paul’s voice was awe-inspiring and full of warning in
it.
Hearing Paul’s words, Andrew sneered, “It seems you are beginning to be
interested in others…”
While saying this, Andrew signaled to the butler with his eyes. After the butler
nodded and left quickly, Andrew continued, “Lion group will be in my pocket
sooner or later. I advise you to stay out of this matter. In return, I shall decline
your marriage proposal to the Ximenez family. What do you think?”
“You can compete with the Adams family in an open and aboveboard way. No
one can touch Lucia. As for Zoey…” He had the least hesitation and gave a firm
look while saying, “Even if you send her to my bed, I won’t take a look at her.”
While Currer was quietly watching the game between father and son, hatred
gradually filled her eyes.
Why does everyone favor Lucia, a bitch!
Emma protected Lucia with her last breath even if she was dying. The electronic
company also handed over the contract to Lucia, and even numerous unknown
netizens spoke up for Lucia..
And August……..
Clearly, she was the one who loved August most and was most suitable for him.
Why did he choose Lucia, a bitch?!
The thud of the door interrupted her thoughts.
When Currer lifted her eyes again, several bodyguards had pushed a weak and
slim woman down on the carpet.
Paul’s face suddenly changed. He hurried forward to help her up from the ground
and his face was full of worry, “Did they harm you in any way, Daryl?”
The pale-faced Daryl leaned on Paul’s shoulder and shook her head laboriously.
Andrew’s face grew even darker. He faked a smile that had a hint of gloom to it,
“Is this good-for-nothing woman why you cracked down on Advanced
Technology?”
“You spy on me!” Paul glared at him, gritting his teeth and simmering with rage.
