Chapter 69

Lucia bit her lip and said lightly, "He just came to see me and left because he had some business to take care of."

She didn't want to tell her parents the truth of the matter.

They would be worried about her.

Besides, Mr.Mitchell had a heart condition.

If he learned of the truth, he would definitely get irritated, so she might as well hide it from them.

Mrs.Mitchell didn't ask any more questions when she heard Lucia say that.

She sat down, said something with concern, and then peeled an apple and poured hot water for Lucia.

When it was mealtime, Mr.and Mrs.Mitchell still had no intention to leave.

Lucia said softly, "Mom and Dad, why don't you go home now? It's mealtime soon."

Mrs.Mitchell frowned and wanted to say she would stay with Lucia, but Mr.Mitchell reached out to pull her and said, "Let's go.

Lucia needs to have a rest."

Only then did Mrs.Mitchell get up, Lucia clenched her hands slowly under the quilt.

She smiled at them and pretended to be calm as she said, "Mom and Dad, don't worry.Turner is here to take care of me.I will be fine."

Mrs.Mitchell said lovingly, "Get some rest.I'll come back to see you with chicken soup."

Lucia nodded and watched as they left.

The moment the door closed, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

When she saw Mr.and Mrs.Mitchell just now, she felt so much more upset that tears came to her eyes.

If they hadn't left, she would have cried out.

Now, only she knew the grievances she had gone through.

After being taken care of by Turner for a few days, Lucia was finally able to get out of bed.

There were still a lot of injuries all over her body, but luckily, she didn't have any broken bones, so she could still move around.

However, August hadn't come to see her in the past few days and her resentment towards him was slowly increasing.

"Turner, I'll just go out for a walk.You can stay here."

Turner was still worried when she heard Lucia say that, but seeing how determined Lucia was, she couldn't say anything else.

Out of the ward, Lucia took a deep breath.

She had been spending her days in the ward and hadn't seen the sun outside for a long time.
