Chapter 373 Haunted House

However, instead of feeling guilty and uncomfortable, August raised his eyebrows at Lucia with a smile.

Lucia froze for a moment and got angrier.She strode forward and pulled the children back.She asked August seriously, "Mr.Adams, how could you take them away without telling me?"

Before August could say anything, one of the children said, "Mom, it's not Mr.Adams' fault.I asked him to bring us here."

Lucia looked down and saw Janet looking up at her.

Janet said seriously, "Mom, it's true.You can ask Timothy."

Lucia frowned and turned to look at Timothy.

To her surprise, Timothy also nodded seriously and said, "Mom, it's true."

Lucia didn't know what to say.

How could she blame August since both children blamed themselves? She took a deep breath, pulled them closer, and said in a soft voice, "It's getting late.We should go home.I told you not to go to the haunted house or you'd have nightmares, didn't I?"

Timothy grabbed the corner of her coat and said with pleading eyes, "But mom, we really want to go.I can protect Janet inside!"

Lucia looked at Janet who was also looking at her with pleading eyes.She didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, a melodious male voice said, "They've never been there.They should go and feel it."

Lucia looked up and met August's bright eyes.

Before she could say anything, he added, "Since you're here, why don't you join them? They'll be so happy."

"Yes, mom!"

"Mom, please!"

Lucia wavered.She didn't want to expose the children to something bloody, but since they were so curious, she didn't want to keep refusing them.
