Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 445 Forced to Sign the Agreement

Throughout the night, Paul was by Lucia’s side.

It wasn't until the sky turned from dark to gray that he couldn't resist the onslaught of sleepiness and fell asleep on the side of the bed.

Lucia woke up to see the man at the bedside, holding her hand tightly.He wasn't sleeping very well and as soon as she moved, Paul opened his eyes, with a haggard face.

Lucia’s heart skipped a beat as she was inexplicably moved.She hadn't expected that he would keep watch over her all night.It was the first time she had felt a burst of warmth after the chilling experience.

"Lucia, you're awake!"

Paul looked at her and straightened up with some excitement.

Then, he raised his hand to check the temperature of her forehead and asked with concern, "Are you feeling better?"

Lucia didn’t avoid it, smiled, and said softly, "I’m fine.Don’t worry."

After a night of rest, she felt much stronger.

Except for her arms which were scratched yesterday from crawling on the ground, the rest of her body was almost the same as usual.

However, when she thought of what had happened yesterday, a chill of fear swept over her like a tidal wave, causing her to shiver involuntarily.

Paul hesitated for a moment and said, "Yesterday..."

Just hearing the one word, Lucia instantly tensed up her body.She looked more than a little nervous, hurriedly got out of bed, and asked, "Where are Timothy and Janet?"

Paul was slightly stunned.

"They are in the bedroom upstairs..."

Before Paul finished his words, Lucia rushed out of the room.She ran straight up to the second floor and opened the door of the children’s room.

Seeing Timothy and Janet still sleeping on the bed, she hurriedly went over and reached out to put her arms around them.

Timothy and Janet woke up from their dreams.

They were surprised to see Lucia, calling out sleepily, "Mom..."

Lucia held the two little ones tightly.
