Chapter 29 Within ten minutes, the picture set off a frenzy once again.

"Wow! This Lucia is really something! She has a different man around her every day."

"Yes! This girl seems to be keeping a low profile! I never thought…"

"I thought she was crazy about Mr.Adams.

Why did she change her target?"

All sorts of gossip came pouring in the WeChat group and it wouldn’t go away for a while.

Lucia and Baron were on their way to the restaurant when their phones kept ringing almost simultaneously.

Lucia took out her phone and saw various group messages.

She clicked on them and saw without surprise that they were all about her and Baron.

Baron, who was next to her, looked at his phone and quickly realized what was going on.

He frowned and said softly, "Lucia, don’t listen to them.

People in the company just love gossip!"

At his words, Lucia curled her lips into a smile.

"It’s okay, I don’t care."

What she cared about was whether August would be implicated because of her.

Now that she was in the middle of all the gossip with another màn, the rumors about her and August would slowly fade away.

It was a good thing from another point of view.

Next to her, Baron was relieved to see that she looked calm and unruffled.

Soon, they arrived at the restaurant.

Baron had booked a table in a niche Western restaurant.

It had floor-to-ceiling glass windows, little flashing light bulbs, and little bouquets of flowers on the tables, making it a nice atmosphere, perfect for dates.

Lucia sat down and looked around.

She found that most of the customers around them were couples and felt extremely uncomfortable all of a sudden.

"Look and see what you want to eat."

Lucia glanced at the menu Baron handed over.

"You can order."

Upon hearing this, Baron didn’t push her and thoughtfully ordered before handing the menu back to the waiter.

When the waiter left, Baron poured Lucia a glass of lemonade and said softly, "Lucia, I know there have been 1 some rumors in the company recently.

Actually, I don’t think that you need to take it to heart.

It won’t be long before no one remembers such things."

Hearing his words, Lucia smiled at him.

"I know.

Thank you for comforting me."

She had met Baron when they played games as a team at the company sports day, and she could see that Baron was a nice man, sunny and kind.

Now he was comforting her sincerely, Baron nodded.

"That’s good.

Anyway, if you get into any trouble, you can ask me for help."

"Yeah, I will."

The two of them chatted for a short time before the food was all served.

Lucia kept her head down and ate without saying much.

Suddenly, Baron said, "Lucia, I’m curious.

What type of man do you like?"

Lucia tilted her head and thought about his question before she almost said subconsciously, "Someone nice to me, and independent, knowing his own mind."

A smile spread across Baron’s face as he listened, nodding his head in agreement.

"Pretty good."

With that, he looked at Lucia and asked softly, "Do you want to know what type of girl I like? Lucia, who was drinking her water, paused and asked casually, following his words, "What type?"

"Cute and kind."

With that.

Baron slowly put down the fork in his hand and stared unblinkingly at Lucia across the table.

"Actually, the one I like is…"

Lucia raised her eyes and met Baron’s.

She suddenly tensed up.

She could almost guess what he was going to say next, and it was the very thing she feared and dreaded the most.
