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.
Seeing Lucia's smile, Burton panicked. He had said too much, and his boss would skin him if he found out. But
for the sake of their harmony, it was worth it.
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?"
"Darling, I didn't help her, you are the woman I love the most, and my heart belongs to you," Archibald explained
to Carol.
Then why don't you hit that bitch? Why are you so afraid of August Adams? He's just a president of a company." Carol asked hysterically. She had never been wronged since she grew up.
Archibald was no longer so bright as he was in the public. He hung his head and let Carol beat and scold him. With a muffled voice, he continued to explain, "Honey, we can't mess with August. He holds most of the
commercial territory of the city."
Smith only owned a construction company. How dare it compete with Mitchell's business empire? Wasn't this like hitting the stone with an egg?
However, Carol had been pampered since childhood. She could easily get whatever she wanted. She had never been bullied as badly as she was today. She despised Archibald for being so timid. As soon as Archibald spoke,
she slapped him in the face. "Trash! Get out! I don't want to see you."

was holding a box of sundries and familiarizing herself with the
room. After looking at all the rooms and finding no storage room, Lucia rightfully thought that the room in the deepest part of the corridor on the second floor was the storage room. But when she opened the door, what caught her eye was a bookcase full of various books. "This is the study?" Lucia stuck her head in and probed inside. Thinking it was August's study, Lucia stepped in with her legs unconsciously. She looked at the books on this wall admiringly, and couldn't help but admire August's strength. She was so
