When Lucia met his eyes, she quickly looked away and looked at his broad

shoulders. She hesitated, "The wounds on your body...oh..."

Hearing his words, Lucia instantly widened her eyes

She had deliberately kept it from him, but he still knew about it. Did he go to investigate again? August looked cold, stared at her, and asked, "Why did you lie?

Lucia was flustered, not knowing how to answer.

"Answer me." He raised his voice a little bit, and there was a bit of coldness in his lone. Lucia knew well that he was angry.

Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breath and summoned her courage, "I was afraid that speaking out the truth would affect your relationship. Also, I don't think Ms. Kelly is the one who leaked the proposal.”

August fell silent for a few seconds. Then he said a little angrily, "You..."

I le stood up abruptly. Before he finished his sentence, he froze, and his face suddenly changed. Lucia hurriedly raised her head. She was surprised when she saw his face, "Is it the wound in your back..."

August frowned, and his lips were a little pale. Before he could speak, Lucia slopped the nurse who had packed up and was about to leave, "Nurse... he also has a wound on his back!"

When the nurse heard her words, she Inmediately looked back and saw that August didn't look right.

She hurriedly walked over and looked behind him. She was shocked, "You're bleeding!"

Lucia said in a panic, "His injury is worse than mine. Nurse, please treat him quickly.”

August said in a deep voice "Are you hungry?! have something to eat here. Do you want me to send it to you?"

Lucia was slightly startled yet flattered, "Okay...thank you.

When she woke up, she felt very hungry.

But as soon as she hung up the phone, she moved and suddenly thought that August was still injured. If he got up and brought food to her, it might affect his wound.

After thinking about it for a while, she decided to go over and take the food by herself. She got up slowly, got out of bed, and walked out of the ward. As soon as she turned her head, she saw that Ihe door of Ihe neighboring ward was half-open. She hesimted for a moment and walked over. She pushed open Ihe door and saw Joshua standing, by the window, and then August sitting on the bed.

Seeing Lucia at lhe door, August frowned, "Why .ire y hi here?"
