Chapter 587 First, Find Mark Page
When Lucia and Paul were eating earlier, he vaguely saw Paul putting a ring on Lucia....
Why did he suddenly give Lucia a ring at this time? Was it just a gift? Or did it mean something else?
He had no intention of prying into other people's private affairs, but if he didn't figure it out, he would always feel that something was amiss. Coincidentally, there was a surveillance camera facing them above their table. If he guessed correctly, the surveillance camera. should have captured their interactions.
Adeline raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the table over there. She smiled without saying a word. Instead, she called someone
over and asked them to lead August to the surveillance room.
There was a separate surveillance room for the VIP level at Zenith. After leaving the VIP restaurant, they walked along the corridor and soon arrived at the last room.
The person who led him there pushed the door open and said something to the staff member in the room and quickly retreated to let August in.
When they were in the surveillance room, the staff member quickly locked onto the area after getting details of the location and
timeframe provided by August.
August then asked the staff member to move aside. He sat in front of the computer and went through the recording in detail. The surveillance camera captured the conversation between Lucia and Paul. He could barely hear it, but it probably answered the question he had in his heart.
It turned out that Lucia and Paul were going to have a wedding in Austos.
In an instant, August's felt his chest tightening as bitterness welled up in his heart.
Although he knew that he was far away from Lucia now, he still couldn't control his emotions when he heard the news.
In the end, was it because he still cared for her?
August looked up and stared at the screen before he turned his wheelchair around and left.
Just as he got into the car to leave Zenith, someone opened his door. Burton got into the car and greeted him, "President Adams." August looked at him, pausing before he asked, "Have you resolved your issues?"
"Almost." Burton nodded.
"Alright. Will you be starting work from today onward, then?" August asked lightly.
When he heard this, Burton hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes. It has been really..."
"There's no need to explain. Since you're already back, there's no need to think about the past anymore. With you here, I'll feel much more at ease."
A hint of gratitude appeared in Burton's eyes and he nodded firmly. "I will."
With that, August instructed the driver to begin the journey home. Suddenly, he thought of something. He turned to Burton and asked,
"By the way, what's with that USB?"
Burton then recounted the day they brought the USB to the police station to report the incident.
August's eyebrows furrowed as he listened. Then, Burton said, "Maybe someone swapped it out, but there was no surveillance video.
They had nothing to work on."
"Have you never suspected me?" August asked after hesitating for a moment.
Hearing that, Burton immediately shook his head and denied, "No."
He believed in August. After working with him for so many years, he felt that he understood August well as a person. If he really did not want to surrender the USB, he would not go to such lengths. It would be difficult for him and others, after all.
Before dinner, Paul took the initiative to help Mrs. Mitchell in the kitchen. The latter was obviously very happy. She had a smile plastered on her face the entire time, and she even made several complicated dishes that Lucia liked. These were the dishes she did not cook frequently, after all.
Before the last dish was ready, Mrs. Mitchell had already come out from the kitchen. She picked up a handkerchief and wiped her hands.
She then walked over to Lucia with a smile and whispered, "You've finally figured it out. If you and Paul are happy together, your father and I will be very relieved. Don't worry about anything, Lucia. Your father and I will definitely attend your wedding before we leave." "What?" Lucia was startled. "Mom, who told you that?"
"Who else? Paul, of course!" Mrs. Mitchell said matter-of-factly. She then changed her tone and asked, "What? Are you still trying to hide this from me?"
"No." Lucia blushed.
She had wanted to wait for the right time to tell her mom and dad about the wedding, but she didn't expect Paul to be this excited. He told her mom about their wedding the very day he proposed, and she wasn't prepared at all!
At this moment, Paul came out of the kitchen with the last dish and put it on the table. Then he smiled and walked toward them. "Mom,
Lucia, what are you talking about?"
"What else? It's about your wedding with Lucia!"
Mrs. Mitchell said with a smile. She reached out, grabbed Lucia's hand, and whispered, "I must say! This is a good thing, and I completely agree with your decision. When you and Paul got married, you were abroad. Dad and I didn't attend your wedding at all. By the time you returned, your children were already grown. It's completely fine to have a wedding now. We'll have some family and friends. over and have a lively gathering. I think it's a good idea!"
Mrs. Mitchell spoke comically. As Lucia listened, she burst out laughing unconsciously.
Mrs. Mitchell continued, "I won't get involved in the specifics of this wedding, so you two can decide for yourselves. In short, your dad and I will support you wholeheartedly! When the time comes, Timothy could be the page boy while Janet could be the flower girl. How wonderful!"
When she heard Mrs. Mitchell say that, Lucia couldn't help but imagine her wedding. But suddenly, she thought of something and her heart ached fiercely.
In actuality, Timothy and Janet were not Paul's biological children-their biological father was August.
Whenever she thought of this, her heart felt heavy, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
