Chapter 476

Chapter 476 Trip Her Up 

Lucia was nervous, and nearly got smitten by his words despite her restraint in ignoring his glamour. His words had gone to her head already. 

He said that he had been waiting for her a long time, but she just received his message twenty minutes ago. Does he mean that he had been here for a long time, even before he sent a message to her? 

Lucia paused, smelling the alcohol on her breath. "How long have you been here?" 

"More than an hour." Replying in a casual manner, he straightened up and slipped his hands into his pockets. "I came here because I want to see you." 

To Lucia's surprise, August put it quite straightforwardly She felt a warm blush rise to her cheeks. 

Lucia had to take a few minutes to collect herself. "Just tell me about the plan." 

Nodding, August opened his mouth and his expression grew solemn. "I will take Jeanne to Genting Restaurant the day after tomorrow..." 

Meanwhile, on the balcony of a villa, a man was staring at Lucia and August. It was Paul Thomas, who was standing there with a cup of tea in his hand. He seemed so wrapped in the scene that he clenched the cup unconsciously. 

He knew the man was August with only one glance. After all, Only August could make Lucia go out so late at night. 

A strong bitterness struck Paul dearly and made him feel restless and unsettled. He gritted his teeth but said nothing, then 

he threw the cup in the trash can in front of him with a jerk. After that, he resumed watching. 

He was watching, as well as contemplating. For these years, he treated Janet and Timothy as his own kids and devoted his heart and soul to Lucia! But she, with a heart of stone which would never be melted by his affection, gave her heart to August easily! 

Driven by a surge of rage, he grabbed his phone and came out of the house in strides.... 

Lucia was still listening carefully to August's plan and had a rough idea of it. She looked up at his eyes after August finished his words and nodded obediently. "Well, I see." 

Although August's plan was unable to lay bare Jeanne's trick entirely, it could trip her up for sure and provide with them some evidence to find out the truth. 

This plan offered them a gleam of hope and pulled them back from the brink of helplessness.
