Chapter 43

August paused as he held the invitation in his hand.

"Yes,"

Seeing how hesitant he was, Lucia realized almost instantly that he was going to the event, but couldn’t go with her.

After all, their relationship couldn’t be made public yet.

She forced a smile and pretended that she didn’t mind it as she took the invitation he handed over and said, "I see"

She looked down at the invitation, then raised her head and smiled at him, "I will be there, and I won’t make trouble for you then."

After that, she stepped away and went up to the second floor.

August watched the woman from behind as she pretended to be fine.

His brows furrowed involuntarily and he had a strange feeling When her figure disappeared around the corner of the second floor, August picked up his phone and sent a message to Burton.

"Go to PW tomorrow and order a ladies’ evening dress for Lucia."

He was not a good husband to Lucia, so he could only try to make up for it in other ways.

Time flew by and it was already Saturday.

Lucia woke up without the man at her side.

She wiped her face and hurried downstairs.Turner, where’s August?"

She didn’t find the man after a quick look around.

Turner answered while wiping the table, "Mr.Adams went out early, saying he has an appointment in the morning."

"Oh."

Lucia replied with some disappointment.

The jewelry exhibition was starting in the afternoon.

She had thought that August would be willing to take her with him at the last minute, even if they had to separate afterward, but she had never expected him to go out early in the morning.

Turner looked at her like this and asked, "You have an event to attend today, Madam, don’t you?"

Lucia said wanly, "Yes, a jewelry exhibition."
