Chapter 699 The irresistible Care
Spencer was even more upset by Lucia's cold reaction. He walked up to Lucia and said,
"Didn't the butler just say that if you apologize, we can go in? Apologize to Ms. Wilson right now!" Spencer's commanding voice made Lucia frown. She looked up slowly, and her eyes were still cold. "You stare at me?" Spencer sneered and said, "Don't you apologize for doing something wrong?!" "How do you know..." Lucia said. "That I was wrong?"
"Of course you did something wrong. That's why Ms. Wilson treated you like this!" Spencer's voice continued to rise. "I didn't come here to sit by the door with you in the cold!"
"Then you can leave any time you want!" Lucia's voice was lower than the temperature.
"You!" Spencer was so angry that he raised his hand to reach for Lucia, but as soon as he did, Gene clamped it down and glared at him.
"Mr. Davies, did you forget that we're still here?" Gene said coldly, ignoring the anger in Spencer's eyes. As soon as he said that, the other three surrounded him. And the four of them looked cold and murderous.
Spencer angrily pulled back his hand, glared at Lucia after a few steps back. He was sensible and did not continue to provoke her.
One day, he must get rid of these four eyesores!
Spencer said it maliciously from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing that Spencer behaved himself, Jack and the others became less murderous and stood by Lucia's side without complaints. She can not go in, then they accompanied her.
Lucia finally regained her peace and quiet. She lowered her head again and stared at the small grains of sand and stones on the ground. No one knew what she was thinking. Time passed by like this. Soon, it turned dark.
Spencer had paced up and down the doorway a hundred times. His patience was wearing thin as time went by. Finally, he couldn't help but yell at Lucia from a distance.
"Have you thought about it? The temperature is getting lower and lower. You can stand it, but I can't Either apologize and go in, or leave here and find a hotel to stay in." "If you want to go, just go," Lucia said coldly.
Esmae was mighty, but Lucia was stubborn. She had done nothing wrong. Why did she have to apologize?
Now Lucia was staying here.
Choked by Lucia's words, Spencer stomped his foot and sulked.
Silently, the floodlights of the gate lit up, and the Browns Manor in the distance lit up brilliantly. The last light of day was replaced by night.
Feeling that the temperature gradually went low, Jack and the others looked at one another, and began to worry.
Lucia was afraid of the coldness.
"Miss, why don't we..." Jack bent down to persuade Lucia, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by another cold female voice.
"Would you rather sit here in the cold than apologize to me?!"Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Hearing the sound, Lucia looked up and saw Esmae standing behind the gate.
Esmae was standing there in her overcoat, followed by a group of servants. One of the servants held an umbrella to shield her from the night dew, but Esmae was cold as ice, not to mention her stern expression.
"Esmae, I..." Lucia stood up abruptly. Just as she was about to say something, she did not expect that her feet would go numb after sitting for a long time. Coupled with the low temperature, her body could not help but shake. Jack saw this and quickly held her. Esmae was also anxious as she took a step forward. But she saw a person supporting her and hurriedly stopped.
"I'm fine," said Lucia, shaking her head at Jack. She stood still and looked Esmae in the eyes again.
"Esmae, I know I disobeyed you, but I don't think I did anything wrong. If you don't let me go home, I'll wait here."
Spencer didn't expect Esmae to come out, and Lucia still wouldn't listen to him. He stepped forward and said to Esmae, "Ms. Wilson, I tried to talk her out of it, but she wouldn't listen."
"You shut up!" Esmae unceremoniously took out her anger at Lucia on Spencer.
Spencer tried to be nice to Esmae, but did the wrong, so he shut his mouth and stepped aside.
"I'll ask you again. Do you apologize?" Esmae asked sternly, looking back at Lucia.
"I am not wrong, and I will not apologize, but I want to go home..." Lucia slightly frowned. She was a little sad, but stubborn.
Esmae was furious. Was the Davies so important to her? Just as she was about to open her mouth to scold her again, Lucia couldn't help but sneeze. She saw that she was rubbing her nose nonchalantly, and when she looked closely, she realized that her hands were already turning red from the cold.
"Idiot!" Lowering her voice, Esmae cursed out of spite, then turned to the oldest servant, Anna, and shouted,
"Can't you see Ms. Webb is shivering with cold? Open the door and let her in at once!"
"Yes!" Although Anna had been scolded for no reason, she had a smile on her face as she walked past Esmae to open the door. She had been by Esmae's side for a long time, and she knew that she was just being stubborn and soft-hearted.
"Take the coat!" When the door opened, Esmae angrily yelled at another servant. It turned out that she was still holding a heavy coat in her hand.
The servant was ordered to quickly put on a coat for Lucia. The coat was very warm, and the warmth enveloped Lucia in an instant. She could not help but lift a hand to caress the hem of the coat, and in the next second, her eyes widened, because she found the overcoat with a scorching heat. It was no wonder that the overcoat must have been toasted before it was taken out.
She looked up at Esmae and saw that she was avoiding her eyes, but Esmae couldn't help but look at her. Bursting into tears, Lucia hugged her "mother" who loved her so much no matter what. "Esmae..." the heartbreaking cry was accompanied by the warmth of a hug, and Lucia buried her head in Esmae's neck and cried.
A sigh slowly came from Esmae's mouth. She looked up at the sky and held back the sour look in her eyes. She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around Lucia's back. She said helplessly,
"You're as stubborn as I'm..."
When she heard this, Lucia couldn't stand it any more. She was crying uncontrollably and choked with sobs and love she couldn't give up for Esmae.
This time it was Esmae who lost out, to the care and love of Lucia.
