Chapter 608 Live Our Own Lives

By the time Lucia and Paul returned to West Bridge, it was already lare. Lucia went to her room and took a shower. She had just gone down to the kitchen to make some tea when she

saw her parents sitting on the sofa. They did not talk or watch television. They just sat there, apparently waiting for her.

Tongues started to wag outside, and Mrs. Mitchell didn't understand why Lucia could speak in such a leisurely manner.

Mrs. Mitchell frowned and asked, "Then tell us, what's going on between you and that man?".

Lucia took a deep breath and said seriously, "His name is Damell. He's a friend of mine. He helped me when I was looking for Garnett, so I owe him a favor. He wanted to buy a present for his sister but did not know how to choose one, so he asked me to help him. I was just helping him to pick up a gift and have a meal. Nothing else."
