Chapter 252 Not a Good Sign

Lucia was dazed. Before she could react, Paul came to her side and frowned at the wound on her forehead. "What happened? How did you get hurt?"

She hurriedly turned her head away and whispered with feigned easiness, "I'm fine. It was an accident."

Not convinced, Paul grabbed her arm and led her out of the hospital. Lucia was a little shocked. "What are you doing, Paul?" He replied indifferently, "Do you want your parents to see you like this?"

She instantly realized the situation. Following a deep breath, she looked up at the man and asked, "What are you doing here?" Paul looked down at her and softened his tone. "I went to see your parents. They're in good shape, and you don't have to worry about them. You should get well first. I will visit them often and keep you updated."

Lucia felt warm in her heart, subconsciously nodded, looked up at the man, and said sincerely, "Thankyou, Paul."

Against the light, she could barely discern his features, but that didn't affect the tenderness in his eyes and the smile on his face. He raised his hand and rubbed her head. "We're friends, remember?"

Lucia smiled at him. "I'll treat you to dinner then."

He gave a heartfelt smile, but his face went gloomy seconds later. "If I'm really your friend, you shouldn't keep it from me." Lucia felt upset. Her lips parted, but she knew not where to start. Noticing her anxiety, Paul curled his lips and raised his tone. "Never mind, let's go. Aren't you going to treat me to dinner?" Lucia saw that the smile came back to his face and smiled too. "Let's go."

They left shoulder to shoulder. From the other side of the entrance, Burton was gazing at them. He was going to report this to his boss.

"Paul Thomas?" A voice rang out in the President's office. Sitting at the desk, August furrowed his brows. His eyes were tinted with displeasure.

"Yes, they had dinner together, and then Paul saw Lucia back to her apartment."

August's fists clenched on the desk. An inexplicable feeling got stuck in his chest. To his surprise, Lucia had such good luck with men that she ran into an admirer in the hospital.
