Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 784

Chapter 784 Who did it?

It seemed that he hadn't had a good rest for a long time. His once personable appearance had nowhere to be found now and only grey and sunken eyes and cluttered stubble were here to catch others' eyes easily.

Lucia sneered at this picture of him, and immediately stepped forward several steps to stop his way, "Daryl believed in you so much, how could you do such a thing?!"

Paul’s dim eyes slowly fell on her, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. "Do you think I did it and should be blamed for making her the way she is today?"

"Isn't it?!" Lucia's eyes were icy cold, and so did her tone, "If you think she is a stumbling block between you and Zoey, you should quickly let her return to her life. Can you get it?”

"It was not me...” Paul's voice was hoarse, but his eyes were full of firmness. He looked at her and spaced every word with emphasis, "I didn't do anything to Daryl..."

Snap-

Before Paul's voice fell, Lucia's slap had landed on his cheek. Her red eyes filled with tears. She choked and growled, "Daryl has done enough for you!"

Paula stared at the two individuals in a daze until this moment. With a rush, Paula regained consciousness. She hurried forward and drew Lucia apart, and explained in an urgent voice, "I know my brother well. He must not have done this."

"You know him?" Lucia leaned on her powerlessly and murmured, "He has committed many wrongdoings. Do you really know him?"

Paula's eyes were firm, "My brother will never hurt anyone he cares about."

Anyone he cared about...

Lucia looked into Paul's eyes inquisitively at hearing this.

"Brother, how are things going? Is there any progress?" After settling Lucia down, Paula stepped several steps to block Paul and anxiously asked.

Paul’s dim eyes were devoid of emotions. He shook his head expressionlessly, "No, I didn’t. It's likely that ‘he’ did it...”

Paula was shocked when she heard this and naturally understood who 'he' was in her brother's mouth. Her voice was unconsciously raised, "How is it possible? How could he know this?"

Paul sneered, "He knew it for a long time. It can't be hidden from him at all."

Paula compressed her lips and lost in thought. Paul's eyes fell on Lucia and August, "Daryl would be very happy if she knew you came to see her."

"Paul, what the hell are you doing? You know what's going on, right?" Lucia questioned Paul in a low voice.

"I..." Paul shook his head, his voice being powerless, "At present, all ideas are just guesses, and there is no evidence at all."

When Lucia looked at Paul's distressed appearance, a bold guess suddenly welled up in her heart. She asked tentatively, "You should feel relieved that Daryl had an accident. Why are you so concerned about her all of a sudden?"

Paul landed his gaze on her, "Lucia, am I so bad in your heart? Does it have to be purposeful if I care about her?"

August’s eyes sank. He stepped forward slowly. Lucia's sharp eyes caught it. She immediately stopped August behind her, and then said slowly, "Your purpose is quite clear..."

Lucia's eyes slowly turned to Daryl, who was in a coma in the ward, and continued in a low voice, "You develop romantic feelings for her!"

The two came to the exit passageway along. Paul pulled out a cigarette and handed it to August, but August pushed it away, "Lucia doesn’t like the smell of smoke."

Paul was dazed at first, then smiled sheepishly, "I forgot such an important thing after being away from her for too long."

August's eyes flashed a cold light, which seemed to warn Paul.

Paul explained slowly, "I used to think that Daryl and Lucia were so similar that I often couldn't tell whether the person with me was Daryl or Lucia. Do you think it's too late for me to face her?"

The empty exit passageway echoed with the ending of his words, which sounded more and more desolate.

"Do you need my help?" August looked at him with heavy eyes.

Finally, Paul lit the cigarette in his hand. After puffing forth volumes of cigarette smoke, Paul said in a relentless and hoarse voice, "I must look into this matter myself and give Daryl a positive outcome. No matter who is behind the scenes, I won’t let it go easily."

Even if that man was Paul's father, he was not allowed to hurt his woman!

August raised his eyebrows and responded with a sneer, "You already knew who did it, but you just couldn't accept the fact."

"Just a guess. I hope it's not him." After Paul responded with a heavy voice, he looked at August with words stopping on his lips, "August, someone keeps his eyes on you in the dark. You should be careful."

"It seems that you know a lot of things." August's eyes flashed a light of interest, and he looked at Paul with a meaningful smile.

Paul didn't respond to August's words. He put on a solemn face and reminded August seriously, "Protect Lucia and keep her away from danger."
