Chapter 148

Hearing that, Lucia came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Paula and Kirk.

"Sorry, maybe I’m too tired from working today."

Kirk curled his lips and expressed his understanding.

"It's okay, Lucia.We'll take you back once the food is served and we finish eating.You have a flight to catch in the morning, so go back early and get some rest."

Lucia nodded and said softly, "Okay."

Paula, who knew Lucia so well, could see that she was not tired from work, but had something on her mind.

When Kirk went to the restroom, Paula couldn't help but ask, "Lucia, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

Paula raised her eyebrows knowingly.

"Nothing? Just now, you have been distracted all the time.Tell me honestly, are you thinking about aman?"

Lucia couldn't help but laugh at what Paula said, but she knew Paula was right.She kept thinking of August's face, which was unpleasant.She wanted to stop thinking about him, but her mind was out of control.

Lucia took a deep breath.She slightly leaned over closer to Paula and asked in a low voice, "Paula, why do you think I keep thinking about August?"

Hearing that, Paula had a look that a gossiper would have on her face.She kept winking at Lucia.

"Do you need me to tell you? Isn't it obvious? Because you love him!"

"Nonsense!"

Lucia’s face instantly flushed red and she subconsciously denied it.

"It’s not possible."

"Why not?"

Paula looked as if she was right.

"Just think about it, why aren't you thinking about Kirk or my brother all the time tonight? Why are you just thinking about August?"

Those words were like a pot of cold water that made Lucia a little more clear-headed and sensible.

After pausing for a few seconds, she shook her head and said in a firm tone, "That's impossible.I hate him.Maybe I’ve seen too much of him lately."
