Chapter 129

Lucia's eyes widened as she heard this and she stared at him in disbelief.He wasn't going to leave.

Was he planning to stay here with her? What a moocher! The thought of what happened last time August stayed with her made Lucia blush and she said somewhat unnaturally, "I...I don't have any room for you here, you'd better go."

Through her eyes, August seemed to see through all her thoughts.

A slight smile spread across his face as he asked, "Are you afraid?"

A long delay might cause trouble.

Was she afraid something would happen between them?

"Why should I be afraid?"

Lucia took a deep breath and tried to maintain her composure.

"There was only one bedroom, so you don't have a place to stay."

As August took a half step forward, he asked, word by word, "How is that possible?"

The last time he slept here, why wasn't there a place for him to stay this time? She took a step back in panic, keeping a distance between them and looking somewhat defensively at him.

"There is only one bed, so if you really want to stay, you can sleep on the couch." Lucia said, lifting her chin and pointing at the couch.

There was no way August would even sleep on the couch just to stay with her.

Observing the woman's resistance, August's eyes flashed with an unnoticeable reflection.

It appeared that this little girl did not understand his good intentions at all.

Knowing she was injured and could not take good care of herself, he deliberately stayed to take care of her.

But she was always on guard against him, afraid that something would happen between them again.

He lifted his eyes and asked in a light voice, "Do you really want me to sleep on the couch?"

Lucia didn't think much about it and immediately nodded.

"Yes."

He smiled lightly, retaining a calm expression on his face as he observed her resolute attitude.He nodded slightly, swept a glance at the couch, and said softly, "Okay, then I'll sleep on the couch."

After saying that, he went to the couch, bent down, and pressed an inconspicuous button on the side of the couch.
