Chapter 212 He Came At A Bad Time
Looking at Lucia's movements, August secretly smiled and raised his chin slightly to drink.
After being fed a few sips of water, he suddenly remembered something, looked a little serious, and asked, "Where is Burton?"
Lucia paused and quickly said, "He's in the ward next door.His injuries are not serious, but his head is slightly injured.I went to see him, and he was already awake."
Burton was in the driver's seat back then, and the airbag popped out when the car hit the wall.
So he was naturally not as badly injured as August.
August nodded slightly, feeling a little relieved, but he was still frowning.
After a few seconds, he looked at Lucia beside him and said softly, "Help me up."
Lucia hesitated, "But you..."
August said without hesitation, "It doesn't matter."
He knew something about his body.
Besides, the car accident was not serious this time, because the speed of the car was not fast.
If the car had driven out of the parking lot and picked up the speed on the road, he could not imagine what would have happened.
Lucia helped him up slowly, put a pillow behind him, and was about to ask him when to call the doctor over when she found August staring at her solemnly.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"What...what's wrong?"
He seemed different now.
His expression darkened, and he asked word by word, "Why did you come to stop the car?"
"l..."
Lucia took a deep breath and told him what she had heard on the stairs and the things she had encountered.
"When I heard my colleague say that you were going to a meeting in the Eastern District, I thought of those words I had overheard.I was afraid that something would happen, and I couldn't get through when I called you, so I had to run over to stop the car..."
After Lucia said this, August's face became more and more gloomy.
He frowned, and thought about what she said over and over in his mind.
"You said the phone couldn't get through?"
Lucia nodded, "Yes, neither you nor Burton were picking up."
How could it be? He didn't hear the phone ringing in the car at all.
Even if there was a problem with his phone, both his and Burton's phones can't be broken at the same time.
August picked up the jacket next to him with a serious face and took out his phone from his pocket.
The call log did not show any incoming calls.
Lucia immediately took out her phone, called up the call log, and handed it to him.
She did have those records on her phone.
What was going on? He casually dialed his phone number with Lucia's phone.
Within a few seconds, his phone rang.
It could get through, but why didn't he get a call when he was in the car? Could it be that someone had tampered with his car? Not only was there a problem with the brakes, but there was also some kind of signal shielding system installed, which made him unable to communicate with the outside world at all.
Now there was only such a conjecture that was the most credible.
With such speculation, it was now certain that his car had indeed been tampered with! Lucia looked at August's cold expression.
He was silent for a while, and she couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on?"
August lowered his eyes and handed her her phone, "Someone wants to hurt me."
Today, if Lucia hadn't run over to stop his car, he would probably have had a car accident on the road and the situation would have been even worse.
Who was so daring to want to put him to death?! After a moment, he picked up his phone and sent a message directly to Joshua, asking him to come over.
Lucia saw that August had woken up for a long time, and didn't dare to delay any longer.
She immediately called the nurse and the doctor and asked them to check on August's condition.
"Mr.Adams, your body is fine.But the wound on your head needs time to heal, and the surface contusion also needs to heal.You need to stay in the hospital for observation for a few days.If there is no problem, you can be discharged from the hospital."
When the doctor saw August, his attitude was respectful, and he arranged and explained some things in every detail.
August nodded slightly and said lightly, "Okay."
When the doctor left, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief.
When she turned around, she saw August staring at her.
Lucia was a little embarrassed and looked away, "What are you looking at?"
"It's nothing."
A dim light flashed in August's eyes, and he said, "I'll send someone to take you home later."
When Lucia heard this, she immediately frowned, "But your body..."
He was lying on the bed now and he needed someone to take care of him.
How could she leave him alone and go away? Seeing her worried look, August paused.
After two seconds, he said casually, "If you don't mind sleeping in a bed with me at night, then you can stay."
These words were more effective than anything else.
Lucia froze and blushed, and immediately said, "I'll just go."
With that, she stood up and was about to leave.
August stretched out his hand and held hers directly.
August's palm felt slightly warm, and he tightly held her hand.
Lucia was startled, and subconsciously retracted her hand, but her hand was held tightly.
In an instant, her face flushed.
At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Joshua walked in hastily, "August, you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he froze when his eyes fell on the hands that August and Lucia held together.
After a second, he said with a smile, "Looks like I came at a bad time."
Lucia hurriedly took her hand out of August's hand, lowered her head, and walked out quickly, "I'll go out and make a phone call..."
With that, she quickly walked out of the ward.
The door closed, and there were only the two of them left in the room.
Joshua looked at August on the bed with a faint smile, "August, good for you.You're lying in the hospital, and you're still dating."
When August heard this, he looked at him with cold eyes.
Joshua suddenly stopped smiling, strode to the side of the hospital bed, sat down, raised his chin, and asked, "What happened? August said succinctly, "Someone tampered with my car."
"Which bastard? How dare he mess with you?"
Joshua frowned and cursed, "He's asking for trouble."
"Burton was also injured, and there is a mole in the company.Not only the brakes were tampered with.You can send someone to check the car later."
"Understood."
Joshua nodded, and his face was a little cold, "Who do you think might have done it?"
"I'm not sure."
August's face was gloomy, and the emotion in his eyes was dark and unclear, "Pay more attention to whether there is any change recently."
Using such a method against him was not very brilliant, but he hadn't expected them to be negligent this time and almost had a major accident.
He paused and suddenly thought of something.
He raised his eyes and said to Joshua, "Take Lucia home later."
When he mentioned Lucia, Joshua's serious expression softened a bit.
He winked at August, and said jokingly, "Do you trust me with her?"
Hearing this, August raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Do you dare to touch her?"
Joshua's complexion changed, and he rolled his eyes at August, "I'm just kidding.Why are you so serious?"
He was not a fool.He had known August for so many years.
How could he not see that Lucia was different from other women to him?
