Lucia Mitchell’s heart skipped a beat, having a guilty conscience. She took a deep breath, and hurriedly took the phone to call back. Recently, she has been so busy that she did not go home for several days.
The children were left to mom and dad to take care of. To be honest, she felt guilty. Mom and dad were getting older and they have reached the stage of enjoying their old age and feeling comfortable.
Yet they still undertook the pressure of lite for her without complaint. Life was so hard for them. She experienced mixed feelings. Her original guilt deepened. She bit her lips as feeling dazed. Mom picked up at this time.
A smile emerged on her face and she called out with a soft smile, “Mom!” “You remember that you have a mother?” Mrs. Mitchell’s tsundere voice cut
through, “You haven’t showed many days. Do you want to abandon your parents, or your kids?”
up for so Hearing her complaint, Lucia’s smile widened and said softly, “How come? It’s just… I’ve been busy these days.” “Busy? What are you busy with?” Mrs. Mitchell snorted coldly, “If you really don’t want to come back, I can’t force you. Now my daughter is independent.”
Lucia helplessly chuckled and said softly, “Mom, I just have a little affairs to cope with over here. I can’t leave here right now, so Someone suddenly knocked on the door as she talked to Mrs. Mitchell.
Then the door was pushed open. A woman dressed as a nurse poked her head round the door, “Have you got enough rest? Is it convenient for you to dress wound later?” When she asked this question, the voice naturally penetrated into the phone.
The other end was silent for a moment, and quickly sounded, “Lucia? What’s wrong with you? Are you hurt?” Mrs. Mitchell’s voice sounded anxiously.
Lucia became nervous and secretly took a deep breath.
She casually made an excuse, “It’s not a big deal. I just accidentally fell, causing a little bruise. Having heard this, Mrs. Mitchell hurriedly cared, “You little girl. You’ve become mother. You are so careless. You get hurt continuously.
You should…” After a
round of criticism, she could not help but show care, “How is your injury? Where
are you? I want to look after you.”
Lucia’s heart felt warm suddenly. She took a deep breath and said slowly, “Mom,
don’t worry. It wasn’t serious. It would take a few days, I’ll go home after these
two days.” She said so many words to comfort Mrs. Mitchell, finally persuaded
the other end to believe her words. She then hung up the phone.
She held the phone and took a deep breath. Then she paused for a moment, and
secretly sighed in relief. At this time, her greatest fear was to let her parents
worried and was more afraid of dad’s physical condition. If these two heard
something unpleasant and got stimulated, that would be a disaster.
Luckily, the injury on her back has already healed a lot. So if she stayed there a
little longer, she would be able to be discharged from the hospital soon. She
thought that after being discharged from the hospital, she would be able to meet
with her two little ones every day. Suddenly, there was a burst of joy in her heart.
Three days later, she was discharged from the hospital. Then Lucia went straight
back to West Bridge. For a while, the
house was filled with laughter again, as if everything had gone back to the old
days when life had been easy and relaxed.
There had been no stress over those days.
Lion group had always occupied the news headlines. Lucia stared at the news on
her phone and she felt a little bit gloomy. She didn’t know what she meant to
August Adams. She promised to be with him, and at this time he was going
through a storm, while she was living peacefully and comfortably. It was as if they
were in two completely different worlds. There was no intersection at all.
But it’s strange that the day after she was discharged from the hospital, Zane
contacted her. Lucia came out of the villa
From West Bridge and saw a man standing under a banyan tree not far away.
She recognized him after a glance.
She walked forward. Her heart suddenly became hesitated. These days August
had not contacted her at all. Suddenly he sent Zane over to visit her. Had
something unpleasant happened?
After she stepped closer, Zane smiled at her and said warmly, “Lucia, I haven’t
seen you for a long time!”
Lucia grinned, “It’s just a week.”
Zane said carelessly, “For me, it’s like many years.”
Having heard these, Lucia laughed out, “Stop joking. So, what’s the matter?”
Zane paused and said, “It was President Adams who arranged for me to come
over. He asked me to protect you and assist you in the investigation of the
incident of Evergreen Meditation Yard.”
Lucia was slightly surprised. She did not expect that he still remembered her
affairs. Afterall, he had been occupied these days. It seemed that her thoughts
showed on her face. Zane smiled and continued, “President Adams has desired
to contact you for such a long time. Yet he could not find time, so he let me come
here to protect you in advance instead.” Lucia’s heart warmed up and she
nodded, “I’m clear.” Recently, there must be much stuff to cope with. August is as
busy as a bee, and how can he find time to meet her? She felt that she could
understand August.
She held a deep breath and asked, “What’s the situation at the company?”
“The situation is getting worse. Many staff in the company have been replaced.
Most of the forces still favor Bishop
Adams. There is no way to change the situation in a short time, so we can only
stabilize the senior staff.” Lucia nodded repeatedly, “Right, at least we must first
win the support of the senior staff.”
Zane nodded, then thought of something and opened his mouth, “Lucia, I heard
President Adams say that you suspect that it was our own people who gave
Bishop the message. That’s why they followed. Do you know any suspects?”
Lucia was silent for a moment. She wasn’t sure. She took a deep breath and
said, “No, I just guessed.”
“It is not difficult. We entered the Evergreen Mountain with a total of eight or nine
people. Check them one by one, we’ll have the answer.”
Lucia nodded, “OK.” She pondered for a while, then suddenly thought of
something. She turned to Zane and asked,
“Zane, do you know of a kind of painter who can restore people’s appearance
when I describe their looks?”
Zane thought for some time and said, “The people you are talking about should
be professional criminal portraitists who can restore the face of the criminal
based on the feature described by the witness.”
Lucia nodded repeatedly, “Yes, do you know anyone?”
Zane thought for a while, then spoke, “I don’t know, but Kylan Connor might.”
“Really?” Lucia took a deep breath, “I want to draw the portraits of Jeff and the
young monk I met in the Meditation
Yard, so that it will be more convenient to look for them.” She had only seen Jeff
twice, and there was no picture of them at hand. So if she searched for them in
Austos City like finding a needle in a haystack, she was afraid that nothing would
come of it.
What’s more, once upon a time they had been living in the Meditation Yard, and
they were forced to go into the city, living without support.
She feared that something bad might happen to them. She owed Evergreen Meditation
Yard too much, and she just wanted to find them as soon as possible to clear up the misunderstanding and make up for them.
