Chapter 238

Such Flippant Words

"It's only natural for me to take care of my wife."

Joseph smiled so wide that his eyebrows crinkled up.

Obviously, those were such flippant words, but when it was him saying it, it made people blush and their hearts beat faster. Lucille ate quietly and decided not to say anything.

On the opposite side of the dining table, Austin seemed excited and surprised as if he had found out a new piece of gossip.

Lucille didn't bother explaining, either. Considering Austin's impulsive

character, he would probably tell Madam Collins about it when he went back.

That was a good thing. At least it would keep Madam Collins satisfied.

When the meal was almost over, Austin looked at Lucille and Joseph and excitedly exclaimed, "Joseph, Lucille, there's a newly opened technology pavilion across from Mount Ocean House. It's called Tech Connex Pavilion.. Have you heard of it? I've seen some interesting videos on the Internet. Why don't we go there and have fun together?"

"No thanks," Lucille said.

She slowly wiped her mouth and continued, "I've already been there."

"Is it fun? Does it really feel like you're in a whole different world just like people on the Internet are saying?" Austin became interested and questioned her consecutively.

Lucille raised an eyebrow. She kept him in suspense. "You'll know once you go."

When Austin heard that, he immediately made a decision. "Okay, I'll go. Believe it or not, I'll defeat all of them!"

Upon hearing that, Lucille felt as if Austin had a shining aura around him.

It was a bright, golden beam of light.

Lucille's

lips curled into a smile as she watched him leave.

It seemed that she would make a lot of money that night.

Suct

She raised an eyebrow and left the restaurant to head to her room.

An hour later...

Lucille's phone kept ringing, and all the messages she received were from Tech Connex Pavilion.

It seemed that the unlucky Austin had been tortured.

Lucille was leisurely leaning on the balcony, watching the moon. Although

Austin admired her so much, she didn't feel guilty at all.noveldrama

She had taught him how to race, after all. It was only right for him to pay her

back.

She was in a good mood and couldn't help humming a song.

The melody drifted along the evening breeze.

On the balcony next door, Joseph held the kitten in his arms and remarked with a chuckle, "Nice singing."

The singing stopped abruptly.

Lucille turned around and met his pitch-black gaze.

Then, she looked away and turned back to her room.

The next afternoon, a truck stopped at the gate of the Jules Residence.

There was a silver-gray sports car parked in the truck.

It was the one that Lucille had spent 43 million dollars on.

The employee delivering the car handed over the keys and a file full of information to Lucille. He respectfully stated, "All the information is here, Miss Jules. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can contact us at any time."

"Thank you."

Lucille took the file.

Soon, the sports car was unloaded from the truck and parked in the yard of the Jules Residence.

It looked gorgeous and striking.

When Madam Dahlia came out of the house, she was stunned.

"D-Did you buy this, Miss Jules?" she asked.

"Mhm." Lucille's expression did not change. She came up with a random. excuse. "There's quite a lot of money in the card that Yoshua gave me."

In fact, she hadn't touched a single cent in Yoshua's account.

The reason why she said that was so that nobody would suspect the origin of

her money.
