Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 804 – No Need to Hurry
It was quiet in the ward. No one had expected Daryl to reject Paul. After a long time, Paul came to his senses and said, the hand holding the
wooden box trembling slightly, “Daryl, if you’re angry with me because of what happened before, I apologize. Please give me another chance.”
“I didn’t want to marry you,” Daryl said faintly, “I just wanted to conquer a man who didn’t love me. I got what I wanted. I don’t need you anymore.”
Paula stepped forward and tried to hold her hand, but she dodged coldly.
“Daryl…” Paula was completely stunned. He couldn’t believe that this kind woman had been pretending to be gentle to conquer them just for a temporary pleasure Daryl looked at him with disgust. “
Don’t call me that. You make me sick!” Before Paula could say anything, she added, I almost got killed playing this boring game
with you guys. I quit. Get out. I need rest.” Then she got under the covers, revealing only her back.
“Daryl, how can you say that?” Paula stared angrily at Daryl’s thin back. “That’s enough, Paula,” Paul said in a tired, disappointed voice. “In that case, we
should let Ms. Davenport rest. Let’s go.” “Paul!” Paula tried to say something else, but Paul turned to leave.
She could only stomp her foot angrily and follow him out. Lucia sensed that Daryl was rejecting them at this point. She couldn’t help but
sigh. “Ms. Davenport, get some rest. I’ll come back tomorrow.”
“No need. You’ll bring me bad memories,” Daryl said coldly under the covers. “I’m not your replacement. I never want to see you again.”
Noticing Lucia’s pale face, August glanced at Daryl and took Lucia’s cold hand. “Let’s go.”
Lucia nodded in a trance and didn’t mumble until the car was moving fast, “I don’t believe Daryl is that kind of person.” “What kind of person?” Lucia pursed her lips and glanced at August to make sure he was calm before adding, “Cruel and flighty.”
August turned the wheel and said in a low voice, You’re a bad judge of character, but you’re right this time/ Lucia’s eyes lit up and August added, “If she had meant what she just said, she wouldn’t have had to get under the covers. She was just covering.”
“You mean she wasn’t really trying to reject Paul?” August nodded. “But we need to find out why she rejected him first. There’s no
need to hurry. Someone will look into it. We just have to wait.” As they spoke, the car entered the Adams villa.
Lucia felt very sore as soon as
she saw the soft bed and fell asleep in her clothes without even taking a shower.
She had been so worried for the past few days that she couldn’t eat or sleep well
in the mansion. It took her four days of rest to recover and return to work.
After a busy day in the studio, she left work like a regular employee and went to
the hospital before going home.
Eliot had gotten better. He was still confined to his bed, but he could open his
eyes and occasionally say simple words. When he saw Lucia, he struggled to
compliment her with a look of gratitude and joy in his eyes. His clothes were
drenched in sweat when he finished and the nurse had to change his clothes.
Lucia could only say softly under his helpless gaze, Dad, we’ll bring your favorite
soup to see you when August finishes his work.”
Mr. Adams struggled to point to the door, gesturing for her to go back to rest.
Lucia exited the ward and went to see Daryl, but the bed was empty. The nurse
told her that Daryl had been picked up by his family a few days ago.
Lucia frowned and tried to call Daryl. As she went through her bag, she
remembered that she had left her phone at home. She could only take a taxi
back to the Adams villa.
At the same time, the two children were arguing in the Adams villa.
“Timothy, all you do is bully me. I want someone else to be my brother.”
“He must have been abandoned by his sister too. Maybe a smarter girl than you
will take me home, Timothy said deliberately.
“She must be an unwanted idiot too!”
Timothy tilted his head. So you know you’re an idiot?”
Suddenly, Lucia’s phone rang on the table. The smile disappeared from Timothy’s
face when he saw the caller ID.
Timothy was about to answer it when Janet stopped him. “That’s not polite.
Mommy will be angry.”
“If we don’t stop the bad guys, they will bully us,” Timothy said coldly. “Have you
forgotten? This bad man wants to be our new daddy.”
Janet thought about it and didn’t say anything else.
“Lucia, can you come to my house now?” Edmund said as soon as the call was
answered. “Phillip is agitated and clamoring to see you.”
Timothy couldn’t help but frown. He thought Edmund didn’t sound anxious at all
and seemed to be exaggerating it on purpose. He rolled his eyes and said
deliberately a few seconds later, “Mr. Shea, Mommy’s getting dressed. You have
to calm Phillip down first.”
Afraid that Edmund would suspect it, Timothy hung up the phone, took out his
own laptop, and quickly typed on the keyboard. Soon the location of Edmund’s
house appeared on the screen. With a glint of shrewdness in his eyes, Timothy
asked Janet, “Do you want to do something fun with me?”
Janet pouted unhappily. “It must be a trap!” However, she subconsciously began
to put on her jacket. Before she could finish, Lucia walked into the foyer.
