Paula took the hint.
Although she was reluctant, she listened to Lucia and shut her mouth.
But Gigi's face darkened even more.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Paula, don't be so cocky! Lucia, it's not the end of it!"
With that, she turned to look at a bodyguard next to her, and ordered coldly, "A-Chung, call someone!"
Today, she would like to see what Lucia and Paula were capable of! As soon as Gigi said that she was going to call someone, Lucia felt a little flustered.
It was originally a trivial matter.
She hadn't expected to get both August and Burton involved.
Gigi would not back down.
In this case, it would be more serious if the two sides were deadlocked.
Lucia was unsure of August's intentions.
She was a little flustered, and subconsciously tugged at his shirt.
August lowered his eyes, saw the worry in her eyes, and calmly reassured, "It's okay."
With him there, nothing would happen to her.
Seeing his deep eyes, Lucia suddenly calmed down a bit.
She took a deep breath, then reached out and gently held Paula's hand.
At this moment, August stepped forward, stared at the arrogant and domineering Gigi, and said solemnly, "Miss Robbers, just bring it on."
Even if she called in four or five more bodyguards, they probably would be no match for him and Burton.
Gigi glanced at him coldly and didn't answer at all.
Instead, she looked at the bodyguard next to her and urged impatiently, "Hurry up and call them! Tell them to come over!"
The bodyguard A-Chung held the phone and hesitated, "Miss Robbers, do you want me to call?"
He didn't know what August's identity was, but just by looking at his posture, he could tell that he was a man of background.
If he let Gigi make a big deal out of it, he was afraid Mr.Robbers would be mad.
A lot of things happened in one night.
Gigi lost her mind with anger.
She stepped forward angrily and snatched the phone from A-Chung's hand, "If you don't call, I will!"
Suddenly, at this moment, a male voice came from the side, "Wait a minute!"
Hearing this voice, everyone turned around, and Lucia was no exception.
When she followed the sound and saw the person coming, she was a little surprised.
It turned out to be him.
After looking at the smiling man in the wheelchair, Lucia retracted her gaze and subconsciously looked at August beside her.
As expected, his face instantly became gloomier, and he stared sharply at the man in the wheelchair.
It was his younger brother Bishop.
Bishop was sitting in a wheelchair pushed by Bob.
With a slightly friendly and harmless smile on his face, he looked at Gigi.
Gigi seemed a little surprised, and her expression softened, "Bishop, why are you here?"
"At the invitation of a friend, I went upstairs to talk about something.
I didn't expect to meet you here."
He turned to look at August and Lucia, and greeted him with a chuckle, "Hello, August, my dear brother."
A trace of impatience flashed in August's eyes, and he stared coldly at Bishop without responding.
Bishop didn't seem to care much about his reaction.
He smiled at Lucia, and then looked at Gigi.
When Gigi heard August's name, her eyes widened in surprise, and she asked, "He...is August?"
Bishop nodded slightly and persuaded softly, "Gigi, this is my eldest brother, and next to him is my friend.Today, could you let it go for my sake?"
His smile was innocent and friendly, and his words were measured and polite.
It was just right in every way, making people feel embarrassed to refuse him.
As expected, when Gigi heard his words, she glanced at Lucia coldly, hesitated for a moment, relented, and agreed, "Okay, Bishop, since you asked, I will let it go!"
Hearing her say this, Lucia was surprised and couldn't help but glance at Bishop a few more times.
It seemed that the two of them had an unusual relationship.
At this moment, August turned his head indifferently, and his voice was as cold as ever.
He glanced at Burton, and commanded, "Let's go."
Lucia was stunned.
Bishop came forward to settle this matter after all.
Wasn't it rude for August to leave like this? While hesitating, she raised her head and saw Kirk standing on the side.
She suddenly realized that he had been standing by her side the whole time! Just now Kirk was beaten up by the bodyguards to protect her.
His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he almost fainted.She was surprised he hadn't left.
Kirk was looking at her hesitantly.
He wanted to get closer to her but hesitated.
Lucia took a deep breath, and quickly stopped August, "Wait...wait a minute.I still have something to do."
August paused, glanced back at her, and said solemnly, "What's the matter?"
Lucia took a deep breath and didn't answer.
She looked at Paula and said softly, "Kirk was beaten just now.We have to take him to the hospital."
After she mentioned this, Paula suddenly realized Kirk was still here.
"Yes, he saved you after all.He was so brave!"
Paula turned her head to glance at Burton behind her, and her voice deliberately became serious, "Wait."
She took Lucia and walked toward Kirk quickly.
Seeing Lucia, Kirk forced a smile on his swollen face and said, "Lucia, are you okay?"
Lucia said solemnly, "I'm fine, but you have to go to the hospital immediately."
The bodyguards had beaten him up, which was not something ordinary people could withstand.
Kirk forced a smile and said bitterly, "Lucia, I'm sorry I couldn't protect you."
He had always been sincere to Lucia.
But he realized the difference between himself and others when he saw August show up to protect her just now.
Lucia smiled at him and comforted him, "You have done a good job.Thank you."
At this time, Paula had chosen a boy from her classmates who had not left and asked him to take Kirk to the hospital.
At this point, Kirk didn't refuse.He glanced at Lucia reluctantly and gave her his business card before he left.
After the arrangement was made, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as she turned around, she met August's stern eyes.
There was a bit of obvious displeasure on his face.
Seeing her turn back, he calmly looked away.
Lucia was surprised, wondering who had provoked him.
Just as they were about to leave, Bishop drove the wheelchair closer and said, "Lucia." All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Lucia turned around and saw him smiling gently at her.She politely smiled back.She hadn't seen him for a while.
At this meeting, she could feel that his mental state was much better.
Bishop still wanted to say something to her.
But when he saw August walking over, he fell silent, and turned to look at him, "August..."
A look of coldness flashed in August's eyes.
He lifted his chin slightly, pursed his lips, and said in an extremely cold voice, "Don't call me that."
His crisp and ruthless answer seemed to hurt Bishop.
Bishop looked a little sad, "You still won't forgive me?"
