Chapter 856 August Dared Not Take The Risk

He did not dare to approach Reggio because Reggio had taken a knife out of his pocket, and the sharp point of the knife was sticking to the artery on Lucia's neck.

If he were closer to Reggio, the sharp knife would pierce Lucia's fragile neck.

He was able to capture Edwin smoothly before because Edwin was unprepared. Now, August dared not take this risk.

The tense atmosphere was spreading in this small space, Reggio knew that people from Chea dared to attack him directly, which meant they must have mastered the conclusive evidence, and he could not escape from there safely.

Lucia, who was in his hands, was the only guarantee for him to survive.

"Let me go, otherwise...'

Reggio pushed the knife deeper, and the sharp knife instantly pierced Lucia's skin.

Lucia calmed herself down after seeing August. She was smart and didn't speak to prevent herself from stimulating Reggio.

Seeing Lucia's neck bleeding, August's pupils were contracted, and finally, he chose to compromise with Reggio.

He slightly turned aside and made Reggio's way out of the door passable. Reggio dragged Lucia out step by step.

Lucia was held as a hostage by Reggio, and she never left her sight from August after he appeared.

Reggio cautiously walked past the people around August, and Lucia immediately cast a look at August.

The two had been together for many years, and they had already had an incomparable understanding. After receiving her sight, August's eyes twinkled and he instantly understood Lucia's meaning.

The next second, while Reggio's attention was all directed by August, Lucia squatted down suddenly and successfully escaped from Reggio's capture.

She turned her head and saw Sophie sitting beside her, smiling at her.

Lucia opened her mouth and she wanted to speak, but her throat was dry and her voice was hoarse. Sophie poured her a glass of water and said, "The doctor has checked your health. It's a coma because of hunger and mental tension. It's no big deal. But, I must say something to you. Anyway, you should have a regular meal at least..."

Lucia took a sip of water and listened to Sophie's kind criticism quietly.

Sophie was just saying something when the door of the ward was pushed open, August walked in with a warm-up box in his hand, and he looked very grim.

Seeing him, Sophie left the ward kindly and left the space for them.

Lucia did not speak anything. August sat down beside her, he picked up an apple, and slowly peeled it.

The air was eerily silent, leaving only the sound of August peeling apples.

After a while, he handed the peeled apple to Lucia.
