Chapter 005

Lucia's mood was lifted. Burton continued, 'Madam, Boss is angry because he is afraid that you will suffer. He is

extremely protective."

"Really?" Hearing this explanation, Lucia was dubious but turned much happier. Unexpectedly, August just looked cold and yet was warm inside.

In the Wright's living room, as soon as they got home, Carol angrily smashed everything that could be smashed in the house, and then she pointed at Archibald, who was kneeling on the ground, and roared, "Archibald Smith, - what did you mean? You are helping outsiders deal with me, aren't you?"
