Chapter 234 Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Being bashful, Lucia had to evade Paul's gaze, "Thank you so much, Paul..."

"Don't mention it.Should there be anything I could be of use to you and your mother, just let me know." Paul replied.

Their chatting afterwards livened up the room a lot, and Bill Mitchell even joined them after greeting one another when he woke up before long.

Lucia was gratified to see her father conversing so blissfully with Paul, since that was the first time Bill smiled during these days.

The nurse came for a regular check of Bill's health condition after more than one hour.

Glancing at his watch, Paul said softly, "It's getting late and I guess we should leave now.We will visit you soon, Mr.and Mrs Mitchell."

Paula really wanted to stay there longer with Lucia, yet she had to obey her brother's suggestion, only blowing a kiss to Lucia wistfully.

Lucia rose to her feet to see them off, and didn't return until she was sure they had entered the lift.

When Lucia was returning to the ward, she ran into her mother, who was going out as though with a deliberate question.

"Lucia, don't lie to me: Are you in a relationship with Paul?" she asked in a low voice.

Being surprised at such a judgment of her mother, Lucia denied immediately, "What are you talking about, Mom!"

That was the most absurd guessing she'd ever heard, Lucia thought.

"You think I'm blind? Everyone can see that Paul just couldn't remove his eyes from you, whilst you acted so bashfully." Elisa said with a ghost of smile, "But I do think Paul a sensible young man, who is so soft and considerate"

Lucia was so weary of her mother's endless and unreasonable chatter that she decided to bring it to an end.

"Mom, enough! We are only friends and I didn't act bashfully!"

"Ok, only friends now."

Elisa went on, "But I figure you could be something more than friends as time goes by.

Paul is a nice young man and I just like him so much, whether when he helped you with the luggage last time or lays the bed this time..."
