Chapter 235 An Erotic Dream?

Can't leave her like that! August told himself.He thus began searching the wards along the passage one after another until he located an empty one at the end of it.He then went back, carried Lucia from the bench to that empty room, and laid her onto the bed gingerly.

Her arm suddenly held his neck when he was about to straighten up.

Did she wake up? August paused with a fast heartbeat.

Yet as he looked down, Lucia was still having her eyes closed.

Her body even twitched a little as her sleep was being disturbed, though she wasn't really wakened.

With a sigh of relief, he removed her hand from his neck and covered her with the thin sheets from aside.

He even gazed at her with a sense of sympathy after doing all that, though he suddenly realized such an improper emotion and began to blame himself on this ominous sign.

With a knot in his forehead, August walked out of the ward and headed for the lift resolutely without looking back.

As the chilly night wind blew out of the hospital, he became soberer, and was able to justify his behavior with a theory that the emotion was only due to his sense of guilt for Lucia, definitely not because of anything else.

That thought made him feel better, and he went back into his car, instructing Burton to head for the villa.

Lucia woke up the next morning, thinking she was still in a dream when she felt the soft sheets underneath when she turned over her body.

That was the best sleep she'd ever had during these days.

Yet it felt too true to be a dream, which awakened Lucia gradually.

Through her bleary eyes, she just saw the white ceiling of the ward, which implicated the face that her she was lying on the bed of an empty room.

She sat up instantly in panic, "Mom, Dad?"

Where were they now? And how come she was on a bed? Having scrutinized the structure of the room, she came to realize it was a different one from her father's.

Lucia got off the bed quickly, though still being puzzled about how she woke up on a bed when she'd slept on the bench at first.

Was it due to her sleepwalking? Lucia dared not to go on thinking.
