Chapter 549 Ace in His Hold

August smiled as if he had expected her to say so. He then asked Zane to move all the food to the table on the hospital bed.

Lucia stuffed a dumpling entirely into her mouth and closed her eyes in enjoyment. Suddenly, she found the man staring at her.

August nodded. He soon understood what had happened.
