Chapter 166
Alone
After that, Lucille walked out and helped him close the door while she was at it.
It wasn't easy to talk about things like that openly. She figured she needed to leave him alone.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, when Joseph recalled the
sympathetic look in Lucille's eyes before she went out, he was stunned for a moment before he realized what was going on. Had Lucille just subtly insulted him?
Joseph was speechless.
Fine, then.
One day, he would let her know whether he was capable of doing that or not.
The next day, Lucille got up at dawn to train as usual.
After this period of training, she could feel that her previous strength was gradually recovering. She already had an
extremely solid foundation, so it was not too difficult to pick it up again.
After she was done, Lucille returned to her room to change her clothes.
When she went downstairs for breakfast, Joseph and Culver
were not there.
While heating up some milk, Madam Dahlia said, "Miss Jules, Mr. Joseph said that he had something to do, so he went out."
Lucille took a bite of the food and nonchalantly replied, "You don't have to tell me things like that, Madam Dahlia."
They were already working together and living under the same roof. She was not interested in knowing his daily whereabouts. on top of that.noveldrama
"Yes." Madam Dahlia nodded.
Around ten minutes later, Lucille wiped her mouth. "I'm done."
She stood up and was about to go to school.
She had already returned from the charity clinic in Talford Village yesterday. However, she had gone home in Joseph's car without any of the others.
Thus, she had to report to the school.
Lucille walked out. As soon as she left the gate of the Jules Residence, she saw a red sports car parked at the entrance. Beside the car was a woman with delicate makeup. Her
clothes were all limited, and her shoes alone were worth six
digits, not to mention the bag in her hand and the car behind
her.
Her aura was a little domineering.
Most importantly, Lucille could clearly feel the hostility emanating from the woman's hair all the way down to her toes.
It was directed toward her.
From what she remembered, the original host did not know this person.
Lucille retracted her gaze and continued walking forward. slowly.
Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly stood in front of her and arrogantly asked, "Miss Johnson, do you have time to talk?"
What a familiar tone.
It seemed that the woman was the one who sent the text messages the day before.
Lucille stopped in her tracks and casually asked, "What is it?"
"Nice to meet you. I'm Fiona Melling."
A proper, elegant smile tugged at the corners of Fiona's lips. She stretched out her hand in front of Lucille and added, "I grew up with Mr. Joseph. The Melling and Collins families have been friends for many years. My father is in a high position and is the most powerful supervisor in Shein City. As for me, I'm the eldest daughter of the Melling family, and also his successor."
It was Lucille's first time seeing someone brag about their own. family like that.
She was pulling out all kinds of extraordinary titles. Who was she trying to suppress?
Lucille gave her a half-smile. "So? What are you trying to say?"
"I'm just kindly trying to warn you that someone of your status doesn't deserve Mr. Joseph. Don't overestimate yourself, lest
you embarrass yourself too badly."
Fiona laughed, and there was a hint of disdain in her eyes. Also, with my status and family background, getting rid of your is as easy as crushing an ant. So... you'd better pack up your things and get out of here. If you do that, I'll let you go."
