Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 71

Seeing how determined her daughter looked, Mrs.Mitchell held back what she was trying to say at last.

Lucia looked up and smiled at them.

"But don't worry.

I'll be fine."

Hearing that, Mr.and Mrs.Mitchell were secretly relieved.

After eating a few pieces of fruit, Lucia went back to her room, put on her earphones, and continued reading.

A while later, some noise suddenly came from outside.

Taking off her earphones, Lucia walked to the door and pushed it open to see Mrs.Mitchell standing at the entrance and talking to someone outside.

"Please, Elisa, I want to see Lucia."

Hearing this familiar voice, Lucia froze and then hurriedly walked over.

Mrs.Mitchell replied in a serious tone, "It's not that I won't let you see her, Auntie.

Lucia is in terrible shape now."

"Mom?"

Lucia walked to the door.

She was stunned to see Grandma standing outside.

Grandma saw Lucia and her eyes instantly lit up.

"Lucia!"

Lucia promptly asked, "What brings you here, Grandma?"

"I just heard abbut your divorce from August.

I'm so pissed off.

How could he go behind my back?"

Grandma slapped her thigh in anger.

Lucia realized what was going on when she heard that.

She took a deep breath and hastily walked up to help Grandma into the room.

"Grandma, come in and talk.

Although she and August had already divorced, there was no reason to keep the old lady outside the door.

Mrs.Mitchell saw that Lucia had made a decision, so she turned around to go and make tea without saying anything more.

After helping Grandma sit down on the couch, Lucia asked with some surprise, "Did you come here by yourself, Grandma?"

Although Lucia hadn't gone to the old house very often, she knew that Grandma always traveled with her men.

Now the old lady was out alone.

Of course, Lucia would feel it wasn't right.

Grandma sighed. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

She took Lucia's hand and refused to let it go.

"Actually, I ran away from home on my own."

Lucia was stunned.

"What?"

It could be said that Grandma was like a queen in the Adams family.

If she ran away, the Adams family would be in chaos, right? Grandma grunted in anger.

"I'm so angry! August is such a jerk! How could he divorce you behind my back? I had to run away from home this time!"

With that, she picked up her stick and struck the floor with it in anger.

Looking at Grandma's serious expression, Lucia couldn't help but smile and asked softly, "Ran away from home? How did you get here, Grandma? And how did you know my home is here?"

"After learning about your divorce yesterday, I had someone find out your address.

And today I came out on my own without telling anyone.

I came here by taxi and looked for a long time before I found your place."

Looking at the old lady with white hair, Lucia felt sorry for her and said softly, I'm sorry, Grandma."

Grandma shook her head and said in a firm tone, "No, Lucia.

I came here to make August anxious! I won't go back unless he comes to pick us up!"

At that, Lucia curled her lips into a bitter smile.

"Actually, I asked for the divorce, Grandma."

"What?"

Grandma was stunned.

"Why? Did August bully you? Tell me, Lucia.

I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"

Lucia's heart skipped a beat.

She bit her lip and said softly, "No...

It's just that I don't think we're right for each other.

He didn't bully me."

Grandma refused to believe.

"It's...

impossible! Nothing was wrong when you came to visit me at the old house last time.

And it was not long ago.

So, why are you saying that you're not right now? Are you hiding something from me, Lucia?"

Hearing that, Lucia was sure that Grandma didn't know about the baby.

Taking a deep breath, Lucia managed to force a smile.

"I'm telling the truth, Grandma."

No matter what Lucia said, Grandma just refused to believe it.

"You can stop, Lucia.

I know you are a good girl and you won't tell me even if you are hurt.

I'll be right here, waiting for the brat to come over and apologize to you and explain it to me!"

Seeing Grandma's firm attitude, Lucia had no choice but to go along with her.

"Okay then, Grandma, you'll be here with me until August comes to pick you up."

Grandma refused to let go of Lucia's hand.

She nodded and repeated, "I'll stay with you."

Lucia smiled and found it heart-warming as she looked at the old lady beside her, who was somewhat cute.

All of them weren't sincere with her.

At least Grandma was.

Having reassured Grandma, Lucia told Mr.and Mrs.Mitchell that the old lady wanted to stay with them and both of them agreed.

Besides, Mrs.Mitchell and Grandma had known each other before, so they got along harmoniously, chatting and watering flowers.

Meanwhile, it was total chaos in the Adams' old house.

August stood in the middle of the living room and unconsciously frowned, looking at those standing in a row in front of him.

His face was sullen and cold.

With his fists down, he clenched them so hard that his knuckles cracked.

With so many people, they couldn't even manage to watch over an old lady! Those people stood there in a cold sweat with their heads down, not daring to speak.

At the staircase on the second floor, Bishop took in what was going on downstairs.

Seeing that August was furious, he curled his lips and gestured for Bob to wheel him back to his room When the door was closed, Bob couldn't help but ask, "The old lady is missing, Sir.

Should we help to find her?"

"Don't worry.

Nothing will happen to her.

She's with Lucia."

Bob wondered, "How do you know?"

A smile appeared in Bishop's eyes.

"She had someone find out Lucia's address yesterday, so where else do you think she would go?"

"Then what are we going to do next?"

Gradually, the smile in the man's eyes was replaced by a cold look.

He curled his lips and said faintly, "Sometimes it's more fun to go with the flow.

Don't you think so, Bob?"

Lucia went to Essence Hospital and found out about Jeanne by chance.

In fact, he had arranged all that.

Things were under his control, so he wasn't worried at all.

No matter whom August cared about between Lucia and Jeanne, Bishop had a way to make him miserable.

That day would come, sooner or later.

Bishop looked down at his legs which he couldn't feel and his face got more sullen.

One day, he would show August what it was like to go to hell! "We found her, Mr.Adams!"

Burton hastily came over and whispered in August's ear.

"Where is she?"

"The latest CCTV footage shows that the old lady got out of the car in Lucia's neighborhood.

And if we're not wrong, she is with Lucia."

Hearing that, August frowned and his face darkened.

He stepped out instantly, saying, "Let's go."

He had been brought up by Grandma.

During his childhood when his parents were the busiest, it was Grandma who had taken care of him.

Therefore, Grandma was the most important and closest to him in his mind.

On the way to Lucia's home, August suddenly thought of something.

"I told you to ask them to hide it from Grandma, didn't I? Who told her about my divorce from Lucia?"

By rights, Grandma shouldn't have known about it.
