hapter 215 She Was Flustered And Shy
Seeing the sudden change in August's face, Joshua smiled smugly, and finished his sentence, "It's Lucia's friend, Paula."
Hearing this, August gave him a cold look, then lowered his head and continued to read the documents.
Seeing so many different reactions from him, Joshua walked to his side and sat down with crossed legs lazily, "Your face has changed so fast! I've never seen you treat a woman so special before.As soon as you heard her name..." Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
"Is it special?"
August raised his eyebrows and tapped the tablet computer casually, "I just owe her, nothing else.You don't need to imagine so much."
August's voice was cold and harsh, and his face did not change much, as if he was stating a fact.
Joshua raised his eyebrows, and leaned in slightly, "Do you think Lucia will come to see you tomorrow?"
After a pause, he said again, "How about we make a bet?"
Hearing Joshua chattering in his ear, August frowned slightly, looked up at him, and asked coldly, "Joshua, don't you have nothing better to do?"
He was boring and gossipy.
Joshua didn't get angry, but chuckled, "I came personally to ensure your safety, or I would be having fun with girls now."
August glanced at him, and said coldly, "Be careful not to get sick."
Joshua's romantic temperament had not changed in the past few years.But he was not without advantages.
When it came to business, he was dead serious.
Joshua didn't care.
He raised his chin and continued to talk about the topic just now, "Seriously, I think if Lucia comes tomorrow, it can completely prove one thing.She has you in her heart"
He had deliberately revealed August's preferences to her today.
If she cared about August, she would come to see him with fish soup the next day.
But if she didn’t have him in her heart, it would be a different story.
When August heard this, he chose to remain silent and ignored him, but he couldn't help wondering whether Lucia would come tomorrow.
The night was dark.
The vegetation coverage in the suburbs was high, and there were few people.
As soon as the sky darkened, things couldn't be seen clearly.
Sitting on the small balcony, Bishop was teasing the parrot Lightning in a good mood.
Lightning tilted its head and combed its feathers with its mouth from time to time, and then walked up to him.
Its head was swaying from side to side, looking clumsy but cute.
Bob walked over, his steps were very light.
When he approached, he said softly, "Mr.Adams, do you want to continue the action tonight?"
Bishop raised his eyes, and there was a gloomy look in his eyes.
He had thought that August would have a car accident no matter what, and he would be disabled or even die.He had not expected that August would be so lucky.He had put so much thought into it.He hadn't expected Merlin to be so useless.
It seemed he had overestimated Merlin after all.
But when had August ever been unlucky? Even if Merlin played dirty tricks against August, he wouldn't beat August.
Bishop smiled.
After a few seconds, he gently brushed the blanket over his lap, and said softly, "The plan continues."
He had worked so hard to plan for so long to find a chance to attack when August relaxed his vigilance.
Although August was not seriously injured this time, this batch of goods could not be delayed any longer.
If it dragged on further, when August reacted and strengthened his vigilance, it would be even more difficult to take action then.
Bob nodded and was about to do it when Bishop said to him, "Send Ted to do it"
He was going to give Ted one last chance to test his loyalty.
At the same time, if any clues were found, this matter would have nothing to do with him.
"Yes."
Bishop looked at Lightning and his expression softened a little.
He smiled slightly, "Ask Mandy to come over."
"Yes."
After Bob left, it didn't take long for someone to knock on the door, and Mandy's voice came from outside, "Mr.Adams."
"Come in."
Mandy pushed open the door and came in.
She had already taken a shower and was about to go to bed.
Unexpectedly, Bob told her to come over.
It was the first time that Bishop had asked her to come over so late.
She stepped forward cautiously and asked softly, "Do you want anything?"
"Do you have time?"
Bishop smiled gently.He was in a rare good mood.
Mandy hesitated for a moment, and then nodded, "Yes."
"Do you like this book?"
Bishop picked up a book of poems on the table next to him and asked.
Mandy glanced at it and nodded.
"Come over and read a few."
Bishop handed her the book, leaned back into the chair, and slowly closed his eyes, "I haven't had a good sleep recently.Maybe this can help me fall asleep."
Naturally, Mandy had no reason to refuse.
She had been hired by Bishop as a personal caregiver in the first place.
Later, for convenience, Bob asked her to live in the villa and doubled her salary, so she moved in.
This job was easier than she had imagined, and reading poetry collections was an easy and pleasant task for her.
She brought a chair from the side, put it next to Bishop, opened the book, and recited softly, "That day you were wandering gracefully in the sky, comfortable and light./ you don't want to stay in the sky or the earth..."
Bishop closed his eyes and listened.
With her soft reading voice, he could not help but relax a lot.
But after hearing her read a few poems, not only did he not feel sleepy, but he felt more awake.
Smelling the fragrance of the shower gel on the woman beside him, he didn't find it annoying.
He had always hated the smell of chemical powder, but the smell on Mandy's body didn't disgust him.
"I not only want your softest tenderness..."
He softly interrupted her, "Mandy."
Mandy paused and looked up at him, "What's wrong? Mr.Adams."
Bishop looked at her, approached her, and slowly stretched out his hand.
He picked up a strand of hair on her shoulder, put it on the tip of his nose, and sniffed it.
Two seconds later, he looked up at her, and smiled slightly, "What shampoo did you use?"
His eyes were clear and bright, and his usual indifference and alienation had faded.
At this moment, he seemed to be enveloped in a layer of soft light, invisibly releasing his charm.
Looking at the handsome man who was close at hand, Mandy suddenly tightened her grip on the book, hesitated, and asked awkwardly, "Do you...do you like it?"
Bishop smiled, looked at her with bright eyes without hesitation, and said softly, "I like it."
In an instant, Mandy only felt something hit her heart, making her heart beat faster involuntarily.
At that moment, she was in a trance, as if Bishop was implying something.
She looked away in a panic to hide her embarrassment and said, "It's a relatively small brand..."
Bishop gently pulled the strand of hair wrapped around his fingertips behind her ear.
Looking at Lucia’s fair and flushed face, he said softly, "Well, keep reading."
Mandy was distracted for the rest of the night.
She was flustered and shy.
After finishing the night poem reading, Mandy went back to her room, locked the door, and leaned against the door with her heart pounding fast.
As soon as she closed her eyes, what popped into her mind was the scene of Bishop touching her hair just now.
She was no longer a teenage girl who had never been in love, but she somehow felt tempted.
