Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 187

Lucia was struck dumb by him.She was just threatening to call the police.She didn't dare to do that.She broke away from him, walked around behind the table quickly, took a deep breath, and stared at him with a panicked and alert expression, "What are...you doing here?"

Didn't he leave with Jeanne? He suddenly came to see her.

What did he want to do? August raised his chin slightly, leaned in front of the cabinet next to him, and looked at Lucia from a distance with a bit of laziness and casualness in his eyes.

Martin had deliberately encouraged him to have a few drinks at lunch just now.

Now he felt a little drunk.

Glancing at Lucia, who looked panicked, he smiled faintly and said, "I'm here to see you.I have something to say"

Seeing his rare smile, Lucia was a little surprised.

Why did she feel that August was so different today? Now he was even different from in the hospital in the morning.

Was he drunk? Lucia was about to speak when the doorbell rang suddenly.

Lucia was stunned.

Thinking of Paula who had been dragged out just now, she hurriedly walked towards the door.

When August saw this, he stretched out his hand to block her, and his voice was a little deeper, "I'll go."

Then he turned and walked towards the door.

He had specially instructed Burton to restrain Paula because he had something to tell Lucia alone.

Unexpectedly, he came back after only two minutes.

The door was pushed open.

August stood at the door.

His tall body almost blocked the entire door.

When he saw the person outside, he was stunned for a second.

It was the young delivery guy just now.

When the young man saw August, he hesitated and said timidly, "You...your takeaway."

Just now, he had watched as one of the two men broke into the house while the other pulled a girl out.

The two acted neatly, and he thought they were criminals.

He was so frightened that he wanted to leave, but he didn't dare to leave because the food was not delivered.

He hesitated at the door for a long time before he dared to ring the doorbell again.

August's eyes darkened slightly.

He glanced at the young man lightly and stretched out his hand to take a large takeaway box in his hand.

When the door was closed, August turned around and walked in with a blank expression, putting the takeaway box on the dining table.

Looking at the fondue takeaway, Lucia bit her lips, feeling a little uncomfortable with an empty stomach.

She took a deep breath, looked up at August, and said word by word, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly.I have to wait for Paula to come back for lunch."

She had been busy working all morning, and then she went to the hospital.She hadn't eaten until now.She was so hungry. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

But now August was here.

If he didn't leave, Paula couldn't come back, and neither could she eat her lunch.

As soon as she said that, her stomach growled.

It was so loud that August, who was standing on the other side, could hear it.

The room suddenly became quiet.

Lucia was stunned at first and she blushed instantly.

She quickly tried to cover up her embarrassment and said, "Well...what's it?"

August lowered his eyes and stared at the takeaway on the table seriously.

After a pause, he opened the bag outside.

Lucia was startled and asked quickly, "What are you doing?!"

She and Paula had chosen the fondue on their phones after browsing for a long time.

The fondue base and dishes were packaged separately.

They only needed to set up a pot, and they could start eating in three minutes.

August raised his eyebrows slightly, took out the boxes of ingredients, and said lightly, "She won't be back anytime soon.You can eat first."

Lucia looked at his smooth movements in shock.

It was clear that he was the intruder, but he was acting like the host and even opened her and Paula's takeout boxes! She wanted to say no.

But when she smelled the aroma of the fondue base, she couldn't say a word.

On the table was the pot and induction cooker that Paula had prepared in advance.

As soon as the switch was turned on, the base material was put in, and water was added.

Soon, the pot started to boil.

Looking at the steaming pot, Lucia stood aside, hesitating whether or not to "betray"

Paula and start eating first.

At this moment, August opened the boxes of ingredients and put them in.

Smelling the fragrance, she found her stomach beginning to growl uncontrollably.

August rolled up his sleeves casually, looked up at her who was staring at the fondue hesitantly, and said lightly, "Come here."

All her persistence and hesitation broke down at this moment.

After Lucia secretly apologized to Paula, she went to the dining table and sat down.

If Paula came back and saw her and August eating the fondue together, would she be the only one to blame? Thinking of this, Lucia felt a lot more at ease.

She picked up her fork and picked up the cooked food in the pot.

August raised his eyes and looked at Lucia with her head down and her mouth full.

He couldn't help smiling.

Seeing her enjoy her lunch so much, he somehow felt a little hungry.

In the Kelly family just now, he didn't eat much.

Instead, Martin had encouraged him to drink a lot of alcohol.

His stomach was empty and cold now, and he felt uncomfortable.

Lucia inadvertently raised her eyes and saw that August was staring at the fondue, but he didn't mean to start eating.

He put things in for her to eat from beginning to end, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

She hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Why don't you eat a little? I can't finish it all by myself."

After she finished it, she had the urge to bite off her tongue.

It stood to reason that she should drive him out.

Why did she invite him to eat lunch with her? Hearing this, August glanced at Lucia and hesitantly picked up the fork.

As far as he could remember, he had rarely eaten fondue.

Compared with this kind of heavy and rich taste, he preferred a light diet.

After taking a bite, he found that the taste didn't seem as unacceptable as he had imagined.

But for him, the richness was too much.

The tip of his tongue was hot and August frowned slightly.

When he looked up, he saw Lucia opposite him staring at him expectantly, "How is it? Isn't it delicious?"

Enduring the hotness, he said lightly, "It's good."

With that, he picked up the water glass next to him and took a sip of water.

Before he could put the glass down, Lucia's expression changed, "That's...my water glass!"

The atmosphere instantly became a little awkward.

August lowered his eyes, glanced at the glass, and put it down.

He said lightly, "It's fine.I don't mind it."

The two of them had done everything they should and shouldn't have done.

They just used the same glass.

He was not so hypocritical.

When Lucia heard his words, her face almost turned blue with anger.

He didn't mind it? But she did! She clenched her fork tightly and didn't dare to have any objections in front of him, so she could only continue to eat with her head down.

Unconsciously, the fondue for three people was eaten by both of them.

Lucia put down her fork contentedly.

When she saw the empty takeaway boxes piled up beside her, she suddenly wondered how she would explain when Paula came back later.

Was she going to say that she and August were at peace and had lunch together?
