Chapter 224 They Met And Said Hello
After the two girls had dinner, they were full of energy and began to go shopping.
After going to a few stores, they found there was no dress that they liked.
Finally, Paula looked at the largest store in the center and took Lucia to go there. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucia glanced at the brand and reminded, "Paula, that brand is too expensive."
"Let's go shopping to see if there is anything we like first"
Paula said and dragged her in.
As expected, as soon as they entered, they found that the clothes inside seemed to be several grades higher, with high quality.
Of course, the price was several times that of those stores they had visited just now.
After walking around, Lucia saw that there were a lot of dresses she liked.
When she was struggling with the price, she heard a somewhat familiar voice not far away, "I like all of these, but there are too many and I'm afraid..."
A low male voice said with a faint smile, "It doesn't matter.Buy them all."
Hearing the voices, Lucia froze.
She looked up subconsciously and saw that it was August, and the person standing in front of him was Jeanne! It seemed that he was shopping with her.
Lucia’s heart sank slightly, and she felt a little sad.
She gritted her teeth and thought of something.
It had been two days since she last saw August.
It stood to reason that in two days, August should not have been discharged from the hospital so soon, but he was now shopping with Jeanne...
Indeed, the power of love was great.
Lucia was thinking when Paula suddenly came over with a dress and said, "Lucia, what do you think of this one?"
Her voice was not small, so they could hear it over there! Lucia's body tensed.
She quickly turned her back on them, gritted her teeth, and said in a low voice, "It's good."
It was quite embarrassing to meet them here, so they'd better not see each other.
But things went contrary to her wishes.
When Paula called Lucia, it made August and Jeanne turn their heads to look at them at the same time.
When Jeanne saw Lucia, a trace of unhappiness flashed in her eyes, but it was fleeting.
Soon, she took August's hand, raised her head, and smiled, "That seems Ms.Mitchell!"
August raised his eyes, glanced at Lucia, and saw her slightly stiff back.
He replied calmly, "Yeah."
Seeing August's unchanged face, Jeanne was secretly delighted, but she still stretched out her hand and pulled him over there, "August, let's go say hello!"
With that, she took August's arm and walked over there.
Paula just noticed that Lucia's face was not quite right.
Before she could ask, she saw Jeanne and August walking towards them.She was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth, and didn’t know what to say.She immediately put down the clothes in her hand, and took Lucia away, "Lucia, don't look back!"
Lucia naturally knew what was going on.She nodded and walked to the side quickly.
"Ms.Mitchell!"
At this moment, a loud and clear female voice came.
Jeanne took August to catch up with them and walked around to them, "What a coincidence! Ms.Mitchell, are you here to look at the clothes too?"
Lucia looked up at Jeanne, forced a smile, and said, "Yeah, what a coincidence."
She didn't look sideways, but she could feel that August beside Jeanne was staring at her with a straight and undisguised gaze, which made her feel a little helpless.
"It's a coincidence!"
Jeanne smiled innocently and said, "I like several dresses, but I don’t know which one to choose.August said they are all good-looking and want to buy them all.I really couldn't stop him!"
With that, she glanced at August angrily, showing the coquettishness of a spoiled girl, and then took Lucia's hand, "I'm so glad to meet you.Please help me choose.."
Lucia’s scalp tingled, and she couldn't refuse.She looked at Paula beside her.
Before she could speak, Jeanne pulled her aside.
"Look, this one, this one, and these, which one do you think is better?"
Beside the hanger, Lucia looked at the dresses that Jeanne had picked out and felt upset.
She bit her lips, cheered herself up, and pointed to two of them, "These two are more in line with your temperament."
"Right!"
Jeanne chuckled and agreed, "I like these two the most! Sure enough, I still have to go shopping with girls, not August..."
She seemed to realize something.
After a pause, she quickly changed the topic and turned to look at her and said, "Lucia, accompany me to the fitting room to try it on!"
She picked up the two dresses and reached out with the other hand to grab Lucia’s arm.
But as soon as she touched Lucia's hand, Jeanne stumbled and fell to the side unexpectedly, "Oh!"
Lucia reacted fast.
Seeing that Jeanne was about to fall, she quickly reached out to pull her, but she slipped and fell on top of Jeanne! A shop assistant quickly came over upon hearing the sound.
August also strode forward and frowned unconsciously when he saw the two girls on the ground.
Paula ran over in a hurry and saw Lucia fall, and immediately stepped forward and pulled her up, "Lucia, are you alright?"
As soon as Lucia shook her head, she saw August helping Jeanne up with a cold face.
He sounded concerned, "Jeanne, are you okay?"
Jeanne frowned, looking aggrieved.
She leaned against August's chest tenderly, shaking her head with tears in her eyes, "August, I'm fine.Hearing this, August seemed to be relieved and then raised his eyes to look at Lucia.Lucia's heart tensed and she subconsciously hid her aching arm.
Before he could ask, she said, "I'm fine.Miss Kelly, are you okay?"
Huddled in August's arms, Jeanne shook her head gently and didn't answer.
She raised her eyes, looked at August, and said in a slightly aggrieved voice, "August, I'm not feeling well..."
In an instant, August frowned slightly and glanced at Lucia coldly without saying a word.
He bent down slightly and picked Jeanne up, "I'll take you away."
With that, he hugged Jeanne and strode away coldly.
Lucia's heart tightened and she was speechless for a while.
Paula couldn't help but say, "Lucia, what's August's expression? Is he blaming you?"
Lucia came to her sense and forced a smile a little sadly.
Wasn't it right? It seemed August was blaming her as if Jeanne had fallen because of her.
"Forget it."
Lucia smiled at Paula, "Let's go."
Paula wanted to say something.
But seeing that Lucia didn't want to talk about it, she had to swallow, "Okay, I'm not in the mood to shop anymore.Let's go."
She grabbed Lucia's arm, but Lucia’s hand subconsciously shrank to the side.
When she lowered her head, she realized that Lucia had a large bruise on her forearm and elbow!
