Chapter 387 Feeling Threatened
It was Lucia!
Overwhelmed by jealousy and anger, Jeanne gritted her teeth and stared at Lucia! She had gotten up at 5:00 am and dressed up to be the
hohlight of the party, but she hadnt expected Lucia to show up! Jeanne felt threatened and subconsciously tightened her grip on
August's arm August felt it and turned his head slightly to look at Jeanne Following her eyes, he saw Lucia and Paul walking up the steps together
Lucia was wearing a light green cheongsam With each step, her fair and long legs were revealed In an instant, August frowned and looked her up and down Suddenly, he felt a rush. She's here anyway. What an ungrateful woman! He
was angry and stared at Lucia's and Paul's held hands with a gloomy face "Mr Adams?" the man who was talking to August called him awkwardly several times before August came to his senses August glanced at him and said indifferently. "You go first."
The man nodded awkwardly and walked into the hall with his female companion At that moment, Lucia and Paul had come up They looked up and met the eyes of August and Jeanne who were standing there
It was a little awkward
Paul said politely, "Mr. Adams, we're here for Old Mrs. Adams
August glanced at Lucia and replied indifferently, "Please come in."
Lucia remained silent. She was just about to go in with Paul when Jeanne asked, "Ms. Mitchell, your cheongsam is so pretty May I ask
where you ordered it?
Lucia stopped, looked back at her, and said with a smile. "It was made by Jennifer if you're interested, you can visit her again like you did last time"
Jeanne knew that Lucia was being sarcastic Instantly, her face darkened and the smile froze on her face
Lucia was pleased with Jeanne's reaction. She had asked Jennifer to make two cheongsams for her the day she tried on the dresses. She
had even promised to take more pictures, but she thought it was worth it as long as Jeanne was angry
"Ms. Kelly, if you're interested, you can go and ask Jennifer someday." Lucia said, nodding at Jeanne with a smile. Then she took Paul's arm and went into the hall
Jeanne was furious, but August was next to her and she had to hold herself back
In the hall, Lucia attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.
The cheongsam fit her figure perfectly and matched the decor of the hall well. She stood out from the crowd of women in dresses
Lucia, naturally, sensed that everyone was looking at her. She just looked around and noticed that there were a lot of people in the middle
of the hall. She turned to Paul and said, "Paul, shall we go see Grandma first?"
Paul gave her a loving smile "Sure. Then he led Lucia toward the middle of the hall
Old Mrs Adams was surrounded by people who came to compliment her Eliot and Christina stood next to her with loving smiles on their faces
“Thank you all!” Old Mrs. Adams nodded to the crowd with a smile
Lucia was inexplicably sad when she saw Old Mrs. Adams.
Old Mrs. Adams hadn't changed much, but she looked older than she had five years ago
Lucia recalled the things she had done with Old Mrs. Adams five years ago as she walked forward Just then, Old Mrs. Adams looked up and froze when she saw Lucia Stunned, she asked in a voice throbbing with emotion, “Lucia, is that
you? Obviously, she was very excited. Everyone turned to look at Lucia Lucia got choked up and quickly walked up to her "Grandma!" Old Mrs. Adams had always treated Lucia like her own granddaughter and protected her five years ago Old Mrs. Adams eyes lit up with surprise. "Lucia, it's really you! Come here!” Lucia immediately stepped forward and took her hand in hers.
Old Mrs Adams looked her up and down with mixed feelings. "We We havent seen each other in
years, right? Where have you been've
missed you. Lucia felt a little guilty "Sorry, Grandma, I went abroad. It was so sudden and I didn't have time to tell you.
The okay You ne back now! You got even prettier I almost didn't recognize you!" Old Mrs. Adams fixed her cyes on Lucia and ignored everyone else
Lucia listened with a smile and finally changed the subject. "Happy birthday, grandma This is for you. Open it and see" She took a
delicate gift box from Paul's hand and handed it to Old Mrs Adams
Old Mrs. Adams nodded with a smile, took the box, and opened it straight away
Inside the box was a green handmade cheongsam. It was high-class and exquisite at first glance. Old Mrs. Adams stroked it slowly, her eyes shining
Lucia could tell that she liked it very much. Five years ago, she had happened to learn that Old Mrs. Adams liked cheongsams when they
were talking Now she finally had the chance to give her one
it was the best birthday present.
1. 1like it very much!” Old Mrs Adams nodded with tears in her eyes. She held Lucia's hand tightly and whispered, “Lucia, you know me." Lucia felt warm and replied with a smile, “I'm glad you like it.
They talked for a little longer and then Lucia walked away There were so many people waiting to talk to Old Mrs. Adams, and Lucia
couldn't stand there forever. She turned to look for Paul but noticed a pair of dark eyes.
A man in a wheelchair approached her with a gentle smile, but the smile didn't touch his eyes
Bishop came up to Lucia and said with a soft smile. "Lucia, it's been a long time."
