Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 524 – Are She With Him?
Lucia clenched her fists and the joy in her heart instantly disappeared. She took a deep breath and asked coldly, “Why did you take me here?” It was really beyond her expectation that he had tied her up in such a violent way.
The man didn’t move. He looked at her with coldness in his eyes and said, “I want to ask you something.” He had to find out if these things had anything to do with her or not! If it was really because of her, he would never forgive her. With a cold look in her eyes, Lucia asked, “What is it?”
Did he kidnap her from the mall just to ask her a question? Before she could figure it out, the man said in a low voice, “Did you go to Evergreen Mountain Temple yesterday?”
Hearing him mention the Evergreen Mountain Temple, Lucia opened her mouth in astonishment, unable to speak for a moment. How did he know that? Lucia frowned and stared at August warily. “How… How did you know?” “You don’t need to know that. Answer my question.”
Seeing this aggressive manner, Lucia bit her lip. For a moment, she said nothing to him. Finally, she slowly said, “Yes.” August’s face darkened. “How did you find that place?” Lucia took a deep breath and hesitated for a few seconds.
At first, she had guessed that there were clues in the mountain because of Mr. Denko’s words, but after searching around, she thought the message might be wrong. Taking a deep breath, Lucia said, “I feel that there might be clues in the mountain, so I’ll bring someone to look for it.”
Hearing her answer, August frowned, as if he did not believe her words. At that time, he had been in the temple and had just heard her voice. Later, Joshua arrived and said that Bishop had brought his men here. The timing was so perfect, and it was really suspicious.
August continued, “How did you know I was in the Temple?” “You were in the temple?” Lucia was shocked. She didn’t see him there. How could she know that he was there? Looking at the expression on her face, August’s eyes became a little cold.
“Since things have come to this point, there is no need to lie to me.” Hearing that, Lucia suddenly felt a little angry, “What lies did I tell? I went to the temple, but I didn’t know you were there.” A cold glint flashed in August’s eyes, and he asked in a light voice, “Really?”
At this point, they confronted face to face. How dare she still say that she didn’t know he was in the Temple? An indescribable feeling arose in August’s heart.
He frowned as if considering if Lucia’s words were true or false. If she didn’t know that he was staying in the Temple, why did she come to such a temple in the remote mountains? What she said just couldn’t make any sense.
She was lying, she was definitely lying! August was so angry that he felt cold in his heart. He clenched his fists slightly and took a deep breath. “After you left Evergreen Mountain Temple yesterday, Bishop’s men went there. Do you remember Mr. Makoto?
He was killed by Bishop because he tried to cover my tracks, and he was stabbed three times before death.” Hearing this, Lucia froze on the spot. She was speechless. What he said was like an absurd drama. Unexpectedly, the darkness was so close to her, and the killing was so close to her.
A person who just had a conversation with her a few days ago suddenly disappeared like that. This was really indescribable. After a long while, she slowly came to her senses. “How… How could this be?” August frowned slightly and said coldly, “If it weren’t for you, August wouldn’t have found him so easily.” His words were like a sudden clap of thunder. Lucia’s legs grew soft, and she took two steps back.
Unexpectedly, these were all related to her. It was all because of her… When Lucia thought of the kind face of Mr. Makoto, a sharp pain flashed in her heart as she shook her head. “It’s not me…” August’s eyes were dark and gloomy. He asked in a low voice, “Did you promise Bishop that you would help him?” Without any hesitation, Lucia immediately denied, “No!” She had long known that Bishop was not a good person.
So how could she cooperate with him to kill Mr. Makoto? This was all a misunderstanding! Seeing her trying her best to deny it, August’s heart became colder. He clenched the armrest of the wheelchair. He clenched it so hard that his knuckles turned slightly white, but he couldn’t say a word. He couldn’t figure out what had happened if she refused to admit to it. Looking at the man, Lucia felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She suddenly realized something and asked, “August, do you think I’m in cahoots with Bishop?” Ever since she received the news of his accident, she had rushed back from abroad to look for him. She shouldered all the pressure by herself. She had to consider Grandma, Kylan, and Zane in every aspect. In the end, she didn’t expect he would think of her in this way.
For a moment, Lucia suddenly felt that all the hard work she had done in the past few days was all wasted. Seeing August’s silence, Lucia sneered. She stepped forward, stared at him, and said, “August, I was wrong! I should have stayed abroad from the beginning.
I shouldn’t have agreed to your grandmother’s request, and I shouldn’t have been so kind to look for you! I have done too many unnecessary things for you. I insist on looking for you, even the murderous maniac Denko didn’t scare me! But it turns out that I was wrong!
I was wrong from the beginning!” As she spoke, her voice was a little hoarse, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Her eyes were filled with sadness and regret. August’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He looked up and saw the tears on the woman’s face, and his heart suddenly softened.
August subconsciously reached out to hold Lucia’s hand and pulled her towards himself. He asked, “Have you met Denko?” Lucia held her breath and pushed his hand away. “Don’t touch me!” Unexpectedly, she pushed August’s shoulder too hard. However, his wheelchair slid back and hit the wall behind him. Lucia was stunned.
Only then did she realize that August was not sitting in a chair. Instead, he was sitting in a wheelchair! She was shocked and her mind went blank in an instant. She opened her mouth but could not speak. August frowned. Naturally, he had also noticed that Lucia had found out.
A strange feeling hit him. In the past, the word “shame” had never existed in his dictionary, but now, he was experiencing it. For him, this experience has destroyed all of his pride for the past 20 to 30 years, throwing his dignity on the ground and trampling on it, which is very painful.
Taking a deep breath, Lucia asked in astonishment, “Your leg…” August lowered her head, exuding a cold, evil aura, and shouted, “Get out.” Lucia’s heart sank and she continued to ask, “August, what happened to you?” August clenched his fists and raised his voice, “Get out!”
