Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 317 – No Worries
Besides Lucia, another person learned about her pregnancy. With a crash, a jewelry box on the table was smashed into the wall. The box shattered, and the jewelry inside was scattered around. Clutching her phone, Jeanne listened to Mark’s report and saw red.
She asked hysterically, “Where did she go after she came out of the hospital? Did she go to see August?” Mark replied solemnly. “No, slie went back to her apartment.” Her panic didn’t diminish at all. On the contrary, she got more anxious.
Jeanne couldn’t imagine how August and his family were going to handle it if Lucia went to tell him about her pregnancy. As far as she knew, Lucia was close to August’s grandmother. In contrast, the old lady had never been nice to
her. She was worried that the Adams family would turn their backs on her if Lucia leveraged her child as a chip. Overcome with anxiety, she ground her teeth and lowered her voice. “Mark, you gotta help me this time. I can’t let her give birth to that child. Can you help me?” It wasn’t a big issue for Mark.
All that she needed was to get his hielp. To her surprise, the man on the other end of the phone faltered, “Miss, this kind of thing…” “What? You’re reluctant?” Jeanne detected the liesitation in his voice and pulled a long face, “I’ll turn to someone else then.”
Mark gritted his teeth and made up his mind. “Since this is what you want, I’ll do it.” “Great!” Jeanne sounded satisfied, “When you complete the task, there will be a generous reward.” Mark gave a bitter smile. He couldn’t reject Jeanne’s request whatsoever. He was willing to do anything to make her happy.
After going through a mental struggle all night, Lucia accepted her pregnancy the next day, but it weighed on her mind and made her breathless. If she kept the child, August might learn about it. She was not sure what he would do to her child and her.
She was still upset about what happened last time. It made her even more determined to keep her pregnancy from him. She had to hide it from the beginning and made sure he would never know. At noon, she thought about these things on the balcony when her phone suddenly vibrated.
It was Elisa calling. “Lucia, your dad
is clamoring to be discharged from the hospital. He claims that he’s fine, and my persuasion
doesn’t work.” “What?” Lucia froze and quickly gathered herself, “My dad wants to leave the hospital?”
Elisa let out a deep breath. “Yeah, I couldn’t dissuade him. I’ve called Paul to go and pick him up.” Lucia
took a deep breath and said, “I’m going to the hospital and see what’s going on.” She thien hung up the
phone and rushed outside. Slie was aware of Bill’s situation. Although the surgery was
successful, his condition was unstable. It was necessary for him to recuperate in the hospital. Getting
discharged at such a moment would put him in a dangerous place. If something happened, the
consequences
would be unimaginable.
She hurried to the hospital. In the corridor of the inpatient department, she heard a noise and saw nurses
standing there. Her heart tightened, and she quickened her pace. She rushed to the door and saw several
people
inside the ward. The doctor, nurses. Paul, and Elisa were all there. They seemed to be advising Bill
Pulling a long lace, Bill said in a firm tone, “The hospitalization expenses are too much. I can be under
observation at home.” The doctor advised him, “Sir, it’s wrong to think that way. We’re not aiming for
money. Hospital observation
is the insurance of your safety.
If there is an emergency, we can come to your rescue at the earliest time
possible.” Unconvinced, Bill shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, Lucia entered the
ward. “Excuse me,
doctor, we will stay. Sorry for the trouble, you can go ahead with your work.” She said to the doctor and
nurses. When Bill heard that, his face fell. “Lucia, you…” She went over and soothed him, “Dad, just take
my advice. We’ll go home when your condition is stable. Only
then can my mother and I rest our minds at ease.”
Aware of his mistake, Bill said nothing. Since he was hospitalized, Lucia had been shouldering all the
medical
fees. He was distressed and wanted to go home as soon as he felt better. Lucia continued to advise him, “Is that okay, dad? Take
good care of yourself and leave the hospital sooner.” In the end, Bill waved his hand and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to the doctor.”
Everyone was relieved to hear that. Paul went to the side and put the things packed by Bill back in their original
places. The doctors and nurses sensibly left. When everything was done, Lucia put Bill to bed and then exited
the ward. She closed the door, turned around, and saw Paul standing there looking at her. She smiled at him and whispered, “Sorry to
trouble you again. My dad was kicking up a fuss.” Paul did his best to help every time and never complained about it. He curled his
lips. His eyes were full of
tenderness. “No worries.”
Lucia looked him in the eye and smiled too. After a while, Paul suggested, “The weather is nice today. Why
don’t we go for a walk in the garden?” “Sounds good.” It happened she also wanted to take a walk. She nodded and headed to the
elevator together
with him. The small garden behind the inpatient department was well-planned and green. The cobblestone
path winded. It was perfect for a walk. As they walked side by side, Paul suddenly looked sideways at her.
“Are you available
recently?” Lucia turned to him and asked, “When?” “The end of the month. We’ll go to the suburbs to have fun. Paula and others will
come.” “Sure,” Lucia casually responded. Speaking of which, she hadn’t seen Paula for a while. Was her friend busy
dating? While she was lost in thought, two doctors in white gowns came over. She moved closer to Paul to make way.
Maybe because the cobblestone path was narrow, the doctor bumped into her by the elbow. “Sorry,” they apologized at the same
time, spontaneously looked over, and froze when they saw each other’s
faces.
It happened to the same gynecologist who examined her the other day. Obviously, the doctor also recognized Lucia. She glanced at
the man standing beside Lucia and whispered with a smile, “In my opinion, you should
keep the child. Although you’re both young, you will have a baby sooner or later.”
