Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 784 – Who did it?
It seemed that he hadn’t had a good rest for a long time. His once personable appearance had nowhere to be found now and only grey and sunken eyes and cluttered stubble were here to catch others’ eyes easily.
Lucia sneered at this picture of him, and immediately stepped forward several steps to stop his way, “Daryl believed in you so much, how could you do such a thing?!” Paul’s dim eyes slowly fell on her, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
“Do you think I did it and should be blamed for making her the way she is today?” “Isn’t it?!” Lucia’s eyes were icy cold, and so did her tone, “If you think she is a stumbling block between you and Zoey, you should quickly let her return to her life. Can you get it?”
“It was not me…” Paul’s voice was hoarse, but his eyes were full of firmness. He looked at her and spaced every word with emphasis, “I didn’t do anything to Daryl…” SnapBefore Paul’s voice fell, Lucia’s slap had landed on his cheek. Her red eyes filled with tears.
She choked and growled, “Daryl has done enough for you!” Paula stared at the two individuals in a daze until this moment. With a rush,
Paula regained consciousness. She hurried forward and drew Lucia apart, and explained in an urgent voice, “I know my brother well.
He must not have done this.” “You know him?” Lucia leaned on her powerlessly and murmured, “He has committed many wrongdoings. Do you really know him?” Paula’s eyes were firm, “My brother will never hurt anyone he cares about.”
Anyone he cared about…
Lucia looked into Paul’s eyes inquisitively at hearing this.
“Brother, how are things going? Is there any progress?” After settling Lucia down,
Paula stepped several steps to block Paul and anxiously asked.
Paul’s dim eyes were devoid of emotions. He shook his head expressionlessly,
“No, I didn’t. It’s likely that ‘he’ did it…”
Paula was shocked when she heard this and naturally understood who ‘he’ was
in her brother’s mouth. Her voice was unconsciously raised, “How is it possible?
How could he know this?”
Paul sneered, “He knew it for a long time. It can’t be hidden from him at all.”
Paula compressed her lips and lost in thought. Paul’s eyes fell on Lucia and
August, “Daryl would be very happy if she knew you came to see her.”
“Paul, what the hell are you doing? You know what’s going on, right?” Lucia
questioned Paul in a low voice.
“I…” Paul shook his head, his voice being powerless, “At present, all ideas are
just guesses, and there is no evidence at all.”
When Lucia looked at Paul’s distressed appearance, a bold guess suddenly
welled up in her heart. She asked tentatively, “You should feel relieved that Daryl
had an accident. Why are you so concerned about her all of a sudden?”
Paul landed his gaze on her, “Lucia, am I so bad in your heart? Does it have to
be purposeful if I care about her?”
August’s eyes sank. He stepped forward slowly. Lucia’s sharp eyes caught it.
She immediately stopped August behind her, and then said slowly, “Your purpose
is quite clear…”
Lucia’s eyes slowly turned to Daryl, who was in a coma in the ward, and
continued in a low voice, “You develop romantic feelings for her!”
The clear and firm tone fell on Paul’s ears. The expression on his face finally
began to change. Paul’s fists clenched involuntarily. Taken aback, he stared into
Lucia’s eyes.
Even August, who was always unemotional, got a subtle change. While Paula,
who was careless on weekdays, seemed to have already seen through the truth.
She stood still aside with a poised face.
There was a long silence in the corridor. Lucia looked at him with scorching eyes
and her tone was firm, “Paula said that you wouldn’t hurt the people you care
about.”
Paul left her with a bad impression, which was why she blamed him for all the
faults. If Paula hadn’t just reminded her, she almost forgot that Paul used to be a
man sensitive to details.
Paul looked a little nervous. After looking at her scorching eyes for a long time,
he gritted his teeth and responded laboriously, “I indeed have a romantic feeling
about her.”
Paula burst into laughter, which broke the gloomy atmosphere in the corridor.
She jokingly looked at her brother and quipped, “It’s not humiliating to publicize
your affection to little sister-in-law. Why do you act like someone is forcing you?”
Lucia set her gaze into Paula’s eyes, and her hanging heart finally fell back,
secretly hoping that Daryl could wake up earlier.
If Daryl knew that Paul had developed true feelings for her, she would be very
happy…
“Did the doctor say when she could wake up? What are the chances of waking
up?”
Lucia went to the bed as she spoke, picked up the sterilized cotton swab on the
table, dipped some water, and fainted on Daryl’s dry lip.
Paula’s face spread a sad look, “The brain wound is too big, so it’s very likely…”
She dared not say “she may never wake up”.
Finally, her brother braced himself to face up to this relationship. Daryl also
treated her brother sincerely. If the two really had no future, Paula was unable to
imagine whether her brother could still withstand the blow.
Looking at the sad expression on the two beautiful faces, Paul’s fidgety mood
became more and more difficult to control. Paul made an eye gesture for August
to follow him out the door.
The two came to the exit passageway along. Paul pulled out a cigarette and
handed it to August, but August pushed it away, “Lucia doesn’t like the smell of
smoke.”
Paul was dazed at first, then smiled sheepishly, “I forgot such an important thing
after being away from her for too long.”
August’s eyes flashed a cold light, which seemed to warn Paul.
Paul explained slowly, “I used to think that Daryl and Lucia were so similar that I
often couldn’t tell whether the person with me was Daryl or Lucia. Do you think
it’s too late for me to face her?”
The empty exit passageway echoed with the ending of his words, which sounded
more and more desolate.
“Do you need my help?” August looked at him with heavy eyes.
Finally, Paul lit the cigarette in his hand. After puffing forth volumes of cigarette
smoke, Paul said in a relentless and hoarse voice, “I must look into this matter
myself and give Daryl a positive outcome. No matter who is behind the scenes, I
won’t let it go easily.”
Even if that man was Paul’s father, he was not allowed to hurt his woman!
August raised his eyebrows and responded with a sneer, “You already knew who
did it, but you just couldn’t accept the fact.”
“Just a guess. I hope it’s not him.” After Paul responded with a heavy voice, he
looked at August with words stopping on his lips, “August, someone keeps his
eyes on you in the dark. You should be careful.”
“It seems that you know a lot of things.” August’s eyes flashed a light of interest,
and he looked at Paul with a meaningful smile.
Paul didn’t respond to August’s words. He put on a solemn face and reminded
August seriously, “Protect Lucia and keep her away from danger.”
