Chapter 567 Lucia Owed Darnell a Help

When Lucia heard this, she was so excited that she almost jumped, "Really?"

As soon as Darnell turned his head, he saw the woman's shining eyes full of expectation, and his lips rise, "Of course, it's true." "Great!" Lucia got excited, subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab his arm, "Thank you!"

The man's eyes stayed on Lucia's face for a moment, and then fell on her hands. Lucia seemingly realized she did something wrong She

lowered her head, saw her hand, and quickly withdrew her hand, and smiled apologetically at Darnell.

Darnell smiled, "If you really want to thank me, why don't you do me a favor."

"What?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, and you owe me first, and I'll tell you when I think it over." He winked at Lucia as he spoke, and then walked

over there to ask his colleague for further updates.

Lucia sat there, looking at the man's serious profile from a distance, and raised the corners of her lips. Darnell really surprised her. After

the busy day, they had helped seven children find family information through information searches. As long as the police could contact

their relatives, they could return to their families.

The rest of the dozen children were temporarily placed in the best orphanage in Austos City. The orphanage promised to give them the

best care, and once there were families which were willing to adopt them, the orphanage would go through the formalities. When the sky slowly darkened, more than 20 children had already found a temporary home. Lucia planned to leave after communicating

with the dean of the orphanage.

She followed behind Darnell. Before she could walk out of the yard, she turned her head and saw a row of children standing at the door of

the house. They stood together, looked at her eagerly, and waved at her.

Lucia was moved, and she waved at them. The corners of her eyes had already been wet unconsciously. Unexpectedly, she only got along

with these children for a short day, but they were so grateful and affectionate, which made Lucia feel reluctant to part with them from

the bottom of their hearts.

She wanted to shout something to the children, but suddenly her arms warmed up, and someone grabbed her wrist and dragged her

forward. Lucia turned her head in surprise, looked at Darnell, and asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

Darnell turned his head, with a bit of sharpness in his indifferent eyebrows, and said sharply, "If you don't leave, you will cry, right?" "You..." The word made her say nothing. She sniffled, feeling inexplicably sad. She hesitated for a moment, and admitted it, and said

confidently, "Yes, I couldn't drag myself away. It's not shameful to cry about this."

Hearing this, Darnell laughed lowly, and looked at Lucia with an indescribable look, "I didn't expect that you are quite kind..." "Of course." Lucia snorted and walked all the way to the entrance of the orphanage. When she saw Zane looking at them in surprise, she

suddenly realized that Darnell was still holding her hand. Immediately, she withdrew her hand.

Lucia walked a few steps quickly to distance herself from Darnell, and walked a little further away as if deliberately separating the

relationship between them. However, soon she thought of something, stopped her steps, and looked back at Darnell, "By the way, I

really want to thank you for what happened today. Well, I will treat you to dinner..."

If it wasn't for his help, Lucia might have to rush around for several days by herself to settle down more than 20 children. Thanks to

Darnell, everything went smoothly. Although he didn't tell Lucia, she knew very well that whether they asked the police for help today or

went to the orphanage, he both used his relationships to help her, and he took a lot of effort.

Lucia took a deep breath, looked up at Darnell with some embarrassment, "I don't know how to express my gratitude, so I treat you to a

meal."

Darnell chuckled disapprovingly, "A meal is ok, but don't forget the help you owe me."

Lucia hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said in a serious tone, "As long as there is anything I can do, just tell me." Although she

didn't think that Darnell needed help from her at all, since he had said that, she surely couldn't refuse.

Darnell looked at her and smiled. Hearing her tone and

raised, "Okay, remember to do what you said."

tive answer, the smile in his eyes deepened, and the corners of his lips

Lucia also laughed, "Of course." The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere became much more relaxing in an instant. "Okay,

let's go and treat you to dinner."

In order to express gratitude, apart from Darnell, his two colleagues and Zane were all present during the meal. They were a little

restrained at first, but after a round of wine, everyone was relaxed. During this period, Darnell didn't drink any alcohol and only smoked two cigarettes. He was smiling and watching them drinking and having fun. He didn't say much, but his sense of presence was not weak. Zane stood up suddenly and raised his glass to Lucia, "Sister Lucia, let me toast again. I really admire what you did today." After

drinking the red wine in the glass, the other people at the table applauded and praised Zane for his good drinking capacity.

Lucia smiled. Looking at them, her heart felt a little warm. She poured herself a glass of red wine, stood up, and smiled at them, "As for

today's matter, I can't do it alone without everyone here, so I toast you in this glass of wine." She looked up to drink, but did not see the

flickering of the mobile phone screen on the table.

Seeing this, Darnell called out, "Lucia, your cell phone is ringing." Lucia immediately put down the wine glass in her hand when she

heard this, and looked down. She did see a phone call.

Seeing the words "August Adams" flashing on the screen, her heart tightened instantly, and she quickly pressed the answer button,

"Hello?"

"Where are you?" August's unique deep voice came, "There is something wrong with Garnett."

Lucia was stunned, "What's going on?" It was clear that Garnett had been good before she left this morning, so what had happened? August's cold voice came, "I took him to see a psychiatrist. I don't know what happened, but he suddenly lost temper. Now he huddles in

the room alone, and he refuses to come out, or see anyone."

Lucia suddenly became angry, "Why didn't you tell me when you took him to the doctor?" She had already discovered yesterday that

Garnett looked strong on the surface, but was actually very fragile inside. What's more, many violent and bloody things had happened. He could no longer bear the slightest stimulation. This time when he saw a psychiatrist, it was most likely that he was asked about some bad things some time ago, which caused him to lose temper and the situation to become even worse.

She bit her lower lip tightly, and before August could explain, she said again, "Which hospital are you in? I'll August hesitated for a moment and replied, "Forest Clinic."

go

there now!!

When Lucia heard the address, she immediately hung up the phone. She hurriedly started to pack her things, and apologized to people at the dinner table, "I'm sorry! I have something urgent to do, so I can't eat with you here. Please forgive me."

Someone nearby responded, "Just go! It doesn't matter."

Shocked and anxious, Zane stood up and asked, "What happened? Is it serious? I'm afraid I can't send you off after drinking...

Before Lucia could answer, a penetrating voice came from beside her, "I'll see her off."
