Chapter 373 Haunted House
However, instead of feeling quilty and uncomfortable, August raised his eyebrows at Lucia with a smile Lucia froze for a moment and got
angner She strode forward and pulled the children back. She asked August seriously, "Mr Adams, how could you take thern away without telling me
Before August could say anything, one of the children said, "Mom, it's not Mr Adams fault. I asked him to bring us here"
Lucia looked down and saw Janet looking up at her.
Janet sad seriously, "Mom, it's true. You can ask Timothy
Lucia frowned and turned to look at Timothy. To her surprise, Timothy also nodded seriously and said, "Mom, it's true
Lucia didnt know what to say. How could she blame August since both children blamed themselves? She took a deep breath, pulled them
closer, and said in a soft voice, "It's getting late. We should go home. I told you not to go to the haunted house or you'd have nightmares. didn't I?
Timothy grabbed the corner of her coat and said with pleading eyes, "But mom, we really want to go I can protect Janet inside!"
Lucia looked at Janet who was also looking at her with pleading eyes. She didn't know what to say Suddenly, a melodious male voice said, "They've never been there. They should go and feel it
Lucia looked up and met August's bright eyes. Before she could say anything, he added, "Since you're here, why don't you join them?
They'll be so happy "Yes, momi"
"Mom, please!"
Lucia wavered. She didn't want to expose the children to something bloody, but since they were so curious, she didn't want to keep refusing them
Just then, August suddenly said, "Did you refuse them because you were afraid to go in?" Lucia frowned at once, looked up into his eyes, and subconsciously denied, "Who says I'm afraid?" August raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. "Then let's go together
Lucia blurted out, "Okay." However, she suddenly realized that she had been tricked by August. She opened her mouth, but she couldn't go back on her word.
"Great!"
The two children were thrilled while Lucia was speechless. Finally, she sighed and agreed, Timothy and Janet would be disappointed if she refused again,
After a while, they got in line and went in one by one, Lucia holding Timothy's hand and August holding Janet's.
It was dim inside and they were uncomfortable Suddenly, they heard a scary voice overhead saying, "Welcome to the haunted house.”
Then a row of red lights slowly lit up in the darkness in front of them to guide them They came to the first room. The red room was full of skeletons and there was a horrible man chewing raw meal. Lucia suddenly got goosebumps Janet and Timothy were both startled. They slowly walked forward. There were all sorts of scary things in every room. Lucia felt her hair tingling, but she had to pretend to be calm in front of her children,
As they reached the next corner, Timothy suddenly said, "Mom, you're hurting me."
Lucia came to her senses and quickly let go of Timothy's hand, only to find her palms sweaty. She took a deep breath and turned her
head, but she happened to see a ghost making a face at her. Her heart skipped a beat and she felt a chill run down her back.
Suddenly, she was in shadow. August walked up to her Lucia turned her head and saw August's eyes flashing in the darkness
August slowly approached her and asked in a low voice, "Are you scared?”
Lucia gasped. "Not at all!" She quickly averted her eyes and pretended to be calm. Despite the fear, she must pretend to be brave in front
of August! Besides, Timothy and Janet were around She didn't want to be embarrassed!
With this in mind, she was full of courage. She held Timothy's little hand again and said seriously, "Timothy, don't be afraid I'm here.
Timothy nodded with a smile and said calmly, "Mom, I'm not afraid.
Lucia was speechless
They walked slowly forward. The black tunnel was deep and long as if there was no end
Suddenly, something rolled on the ground and stopped at Lucia's feet
Lucia had just lowered her head when the light on the ground next to her suddenly came on She saw a bloody head at her feet
Before Lucia could scream, August put his arm over her Then he bent down and picked up the head and threw it into the trash can without
hesitation He turned to look at her and asked, worried, "Are you okay?"
Seeing the worried look in August's eyes, Lucia suddenly felt warm. She shook her head and didn't say anything
Janet said adoringly, Awesome!
August's lips curled into a smile He took out a tissue to wipe his hands, took Janet's hand again, and said firmly, “Janet, don't be afraid
171 protect you Timothy chimed in “I can protect you too!" He even raised his little fist. Lucia was amused by Timothy and giggled, August and Janet also chuckled
It was less tense and the haunted house was less scary because of their laughter
They continued on their way and Lucia slowly regained her composure August took Janet's hand and told them, "The red liquid on the wall is not actually blood. It's synthetic blood often used in filming You
dont have to be afraid.” Timothy and Janet listened intently as if they were in a museum, Behind them. Lucia gave a smile. She didn't notice a person hiding in the corner next to her
