Chapter 233 It was His Honour

Paula agreed freely at the other end of the phone, "I can do you one thousand favors! Just let me know!"

Lucia laughed, asking in a whisper, "Could you drop on my flat and grab me some clothes?"

Her flat happened to be on the way from Paula's home to the hospital, and she had given Paula a spare key before.

Paula suggested immediately, "Sure! Just give me a list and I'll send them to you later."

She then got herself dressed up and went downstairs to the living room when everything was ready.

Seeing his sister rushing in such a hurry, Paul, who was reading a magazine while drinking the tea on the sofa, raised his enquiring eyebrows, "Are you going out?"

Facing the penetrating look of her brother as if he had caught her on the spot, Paula rolled her eyes and answered firmly, "I'm not going to the pub during the daytime!"

"Then what are you doing?"

Paul put down the cup onto the table gracefully, giving her a gaze which was compelling, if not authoritative.

Paula sighed in despair.Her brother just watched her like a prisoner since the tempest in the pub last time.

She answered casually while putting on her shoes in the hallway, "I'm going to see Lucia in the hospital..."

The mention of Lucia triggered a flicker in Paul's eyes.

Putting down the magazine swiftly, he walked up to Paula, "What's happened to Lucia?"

Paula tried hard to conceal her snicker, seeing her brother getting so nervous.

"Nothing's happened to her, but her father is in hospital.I'll pick up some clothes from her flat and send them over to the hospital.I should pay a visit to them, shouldn't I?"

Knowing Lucia was all right, Paul sighed with relief secretly.

"I'll go with you." he then offered.

Paula couldn't help laughing.She didn't went on teasing her brother only because there was no time to lose at the moment.
