My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess

Chapter 4

Even catching them deleting the surveillance footage would not matter.

She would find a way to obtain evidence.

Suddenly, Lucille detected a faint scent of medicine and felt her heart calm down. When she turned to look, she saw Joseph staring at her with a shallow but intense gaze. The medicine scent was coming from him.

Lucille furrowed her brows, puzzled by his sudden scrutiny. "Do we know each other?" she asked.

With a barely-there smile, Joseph introduced himself, "Joseph Collins."

Lucille was slightly taken aback.

The introduction was unexpected.

Well, since Joseph had introduced himself, it was only polite to return the gesture.

Hence, Lucille followed suit, "Lucille Jules."

Joseph extended his hand. "Pleasure to meet you," he said, giving Lucille a polite smile, one that didn't quite reach his eyes.

Lucille's focus quickly shifted to his extended hand. It was firm and well-groomed, with fingers that were lean and masculine. She placed her own delicate hand in his, giving it a light squeeze before quickly retracting her hand.

Joseph, momentarily lost in thought, looked down at his palm where her touch still lingered.

Although their interaction was brief, he couldn't shake off the unexpected warmth he felt from her touch.

Her hand was cool to the touch, yet it sent a strange, inexplicable heat through him.

Joseph pulled his hand back and hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering with a complex emotion.

When they arrived at the hotel, Lucille thanked Joseph and got out of the car. It was early evening, and the sun had just set, leaving Lucille struggling to keep her eyes open.

She was about to hurry inside when a shadow suddenly fell over her, bringing her some coolness.

Looking up, she saw Joseph holding a black umbrella behind her.
