Chapter303 She was only a Substitute? 

 

Standing beside the flower beds in the nigh breeze, August was in front of his car. Bein, a bit tipsy, he tried to 

steady himself by leaning against the car languorously while squinting at the direction of the stairs. He 

actually couldn't account for his behavior now. 

He had been drinking with Joshua in Perfect Fortune just how to dissipate the r:loominess in his heart. Yet 

Lucia's face kept floating into his mind, making: liim even more upset. lletlius kept on drinking, and was a bit

address of Lucia without much thinking, probably because he was already unable to think.

Wearing a long ivory overcoat which got her white and spidery legs exposed outside, she ran towards him like
