Lucia bit her lip and said lightly, "He just came to see me and left because he had some business to take care of." She didn't want to tell her parents the truth of the matter. They would be worried about her. Besides, Mr. Mitchell had a heart condition. If he learned of the truth, he would definitely get irritated, so she might as well hide it from them.

When she got to the elevator, Lucia saw the slogan next to it and realized that it was Essence Hospital. It was the same hospital where she had inadvertently stumbled upon August's secret and where Jeanne was staying. When she got into the elevator, Lucia bit her lip and pressed the button to go up, with some unknown feelings at the bottom of her heart. She would like to see what Jeanne was like and why August would put so much attention and effort into protecting
