Chapter 226

Nothing Else

In order to buy a car for her, Hugo and James worked hard.

Lucille was moved and touched. She could not help but smile. "Got it."

She had signed up for the driving test before she went away to complete the task. There was nothing else she had to do for the time being, so she would be able to get her license.

The net income of Tech Connex Pavilion and the huge commission from the mission was enough to make up for the money she had transferred from

Yoshua's card.

It was more than enough to buy a car and expand Tech Connex Pavilion as

well.

She decided to strike the iron while it was hot, and Tech Connex Pavilion had successfully built a reputation for itself. Although they were earning a considerable profit, it still wasn't enough.

If they didn't come up with a brand new experience and add new elements, their regular customers would eventually get sick of it.

Lucille looked at Robert and said with a smile, "You'll still have to work hard. I

have an idea, which is to allow customers to customize the experience

however they want. In other words, they can try whatever map they want."

When James heard the idea, he clapped his hands and excitedly exclaimed," Good idea. I agree! I'm sure the rich kids in Shein City will give us loads of money to try a custom experience. Our profit will increase exponentially!"

"I agree, too." Hugo thought for a while and added, "I remember seeing a popular show on the Internet where they get celebrities to try all kinds of thrilling experiences."

"However, while they can't guarantee the safety of those celebrities, our holographic experience pods are very suitable. It's got the thrill factor, but it's not dangerous at all," Hugo stated with a grin. "Maybe the show will cooperate with us in the future."

James and the others burst into laughter

No one took Hugo's words seriously, but it didn't hinder their ambitions for the

future at all.

That was just how they were. Back then, when they fought on the battlefield with Lucille, they were full of passion. They didn't care about their lives at all.

Right then, they were willing to follow her commands and stay in Shein City. Even if they didn't have much and could only run a small technology pavilion, they still treated it as a priority and put all their enthusiasm and courage into it. Lucille's heart warmed and a faint smile appeared in her eyes. "Alright, that's

settled then."

After discussing that, Lucille took the storage box containing the Deep Lotus and walked out of the entrance of Tech Connex Pavilion. She then hailed a cab

at the side of the road and went back to the Jules Residence.

While sitting in the back seat of the taxi, Lucille lowered her head and wiped her face with a special mixture.

Her delicate and flawless face was revealed again.

Her skin was as smooth as cream, and her eyes were as clear as a spring. She was as stunning as could be. Soon, the car stopped.

Lucille paid the driver a large sum of money and got out of the car with the

small box.

When he saw Lucille's stunning face, the cab driver rubbed his eyes in

disbelief.

Something was off. Hadn't she just been an ordinary girl who blended in with the crowd? How did she become a charming and breathtaking beauty in the blink of an eye?

The cab must have been too dark for him to see her clearly.

The driver shook his head and turned around to leave.

When Lucille stepped into the Jules Residence, Madam Dahlia heard the noise. and came out. Feeling surprised, she asked, "Why are you back, Miss Jules? Didn't you say that you would stay for at least half a month? Were you not able 3/7

to get used to staying at Yoshua's place?"

"No." Even though Lucille was lying, her expression did not change. "I didn't go to Yoshua's place. I missed my plane, so I had a change of plans and decided to go on vacation somewhere else."

"So that's how it is."

Madam Dahlia did not doubt her. She took the luggage from Lucille's hand and said with a smile, "You must be tired after coming all the way here. What would you like to eat, Miss Jules? I'll prepare it now."

Lucille usually wasn't picky, but she had stayed in the kidnappers' lair, where she couldn't eat or sleep well for days. At that moment, she was indeed a little hungry.

"I want ribs, chicken wings, braised pork, and steak."

A Piece of Cake

Lucille rattled off a long list of food.

Madam Dahlia smiled even more kindly and said, "Okay, got it. Go rest first, Miss Jules. I'll go to the kitchen and get it ready."

There was a five-star private chef hired by Joseph in the kitchen, so it was a piece of cake to prepare all of that food.

Lucille nodded. She went upstairs with her storage box and returned to her

room.

She locked the door. The first thing she did was go into the bathroom to take a shower.

After doing so, Lucille changed into clean clothes and walked out of the bedroom with her long hair that was still wet.

Molly was already waiting at the door. When she saw Lucille emerging, she pounced on her happily. "Bobo, I missed you so much!" Lucille grinned and asked, "Did anything happen while I was gone?"

"No." Molly shook her head, and her eyes were full of worry. She whispered, What about you? Are you hurt? Was it a hard mission?" "I'm not injured. It wasn't hard."

On the way back, Benjamin had told Lucille about the outcome of the mission.

What they had uncovered was a criminal organization. They hired people to kidnap innocent young men and women, then sent the victims to another organization before they were sold off.

Fortunately, the ten days that Lucille and Kylian spent undercover had not been in vain. It was precisely because they had found the organization's main base of operations that they could work together with the police to completely eradicate the organization in one go. The six missing victims had also been found.

Four of them were slightly injured, and the other two were sold off to a remote. area. They had gotten seriously injured while trying to resist and escape.

Luckily, they were rescued in time, so they were sent to the hospital to be treated.

Lucille heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the news.

The weight that was pressing down on her heart was finally relieved.

She was in a good mood. She patted Molly's head and coaxed her. "Let's go downstairs and see if dinner is ready. I'm hungry."

""Understood!"

Molly happily ran downstairs.

Lucille shook her head and walked to the door of Joseph's room with her storage box. When she saw the light coming from inside, she knocked on the door and asked, "Are you there?"

The next second, the door opened.

She looked up and saw Joseph standing behind the door in a loose bathrobe.

The man's strong and firm chest looked particularly solid, and his defined. Adam's apple bobbed. He was devastatingly alluring.

He must have just taken a shower. There was water dripping down from his hair. Beneath his razor-sharp eyebrows, there was a pair of crimson eyes. They were extremely enchanting and shining, so beautiful that she could not look away.noveldrama

Lucille's heart thumped wildly.

Once again, there was a charming and dangerous aura around his body.

It had to be said Joseph was already seductive enough before the toxins in his body were suppressed despite the fact that he looked like he would be toppled by a gust of wind.

However, after the poison was suppressed, she felt that Joseph had become. an unleashed demon. Even she would occasionally feel an indescribable sense of oppression from its powerful aura.

Lucille did not waste any more time. She handed over the small storage box in her hand and said, "This will be useful to you. It's a gift."

If she had known that giving him the medicine in a show of kindness would

affect her so much, she wouldn't have gone straight to his door so stupidly.
