Chapter 588 Too Much Bias Against Him

If she allowed Timothy and Janet to be the page boy and flower girl at her wedding, her sense of guilt would constantly gnaw at her. She would feel guilty toward Paul, Timothy, and Janet. It was as though she would betray all of them at once. "Lucia..."

When she heard Paul calling out to her, Lucia finally came back to her senses. She took a deep breath, trying to get her vision back to normal as she looked at Paul blankly.

"Is everything alright with you? Why do you look sick? Are you feeling unwell?"

Paul asked in a very concerned manner as he reached out to check for Lucia's body temperature with the back of his hand. "It doesn't feel too hot. Why are you sweating so much?"

Lucia took a deep breath and pushed his hand away. "Perhaps I'm too hungry," she said softly.

"Why didn't you say so earlier if you're hungry? Hurry up and eat. The food is ready. I'll call the children over now," Mrs. Mitchell said as she led Lucia to the dining table.

Lucia slowly came back to her senses and nodded. She then glanced at Paul and said softly, "Let's go eat first."

"Lucia, are you unhappy because I told Mom about the wedding?" Paul asked.

"No, you are overthinking things." Lucia shook her head immediately.

Although she denied it, her voice sounded more distant. Paul still had something to say as his mouth hung open, but he kept quiet in the end.

"By the way, Paul, Paula will go to Central Hospital tomorrow for a check-up and massage therapy. I want to go see her. Do you want to come along with me?"

Paul hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'll be going home tomorrow night. I won't be going in the morning since! still have something to do at the office."

"Okay." Lucia nodded.
