Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 22

Chapter 022

Seeing Grandmother Green was suddenly more serious, Lucia was actually a little nervous. She turned to August and August nodded at her. So Lucia followed Grandmother Green to get on the second floor Lucia accompanied Grandmother Green to the second floor and they walked into a room with the vintage decor,

“Lucia, this is our first meeting, so I, as a grandmother, should give you a gift” While Grandmother Green was saying, she opened the drawer of the bedside table, look out a red cloth bag from it, and then slowly opened the handkerchief. A silver bracelet appeared, randmother Green handed the bracelet over, “Lucia, you can see it as a gift for our first meeting, so just take it.” Lucia was surprised and a little overwhelmed The silver bracelet seemed to be something precious to Grandmother Green, so she couldn’t accept it Lucia looked at Grandmother Green, and then looked at the silver bracelet in her hand. She shook her head, “Grandmother Green, I can’t accept it.”

Seeing that Lucia refused, the old lady was not worried, but only asked softly, “Do you know whose bracelet this is?” Lucia didn’t know, so she shook her head. Wasn’t It Grandmother Green’s bracelet? Grandmother Green narrated slowly. ”This is left behind by August’s mother before she died. She specially

instructed that I must give it to August’s wife. This is a silver bracelet passed down from her ancestors. I give it to you, which represents my recognition of you, and also the recognition of the Adams family to you.”

Hearing Grandmother Green suddenly mention August’s mother, Lucia was nervous. Lucia had learned from

Aunt Turner that everyone was prohibited to mention August’s mother, and see­ing this bracelet, she was even more unsure whether she should take it. What’s more, it was a bracelet which meant a lot, so Lucia dared not

accept it. Even if Grandmother Green admitted Lucia, and the Adams family accepted her, the most important thing for her was August’s real acceptance.

When Grandmother Green saw Lucia did not speak for a while, she asked again, ”Lucia, are you still not going to

accept it?”

Lucia came back to her senses. After she thought for a moment, she looked seriously at the old lady, “Grandmother Green, I’m afraid I can’t accept the bracelet. At least, I can’t accept it now.” “Why?” Grandmother

married August not long ago. Although I have contacted with him these days, we haven’t had a deep relationship yet. I want to accept the bracelet until we love each other.” Hearing Lucia’s word, Grandmother Green was very surprised. Finally, she smiled and shook her head, and put the red cloth bag back again, “You are frank and sincere. It’s ok. I will wait until you accept it.” Although Lucia didn’t accept the bracelet, Grandmother Green was fonder of her. And they chatted for a while before they slowly went downstairs.

The maids had already prepared the meal in the dining room downstairs, August walked up and supported Grandmother Green on the other side, “Grandmother Green, it’s time for lunch.” Grandmother Green nodded, turned to Lucia, and said smilingly, “Come on, Lucia, let’s have lunch.” Lucia answered smilingly, “Okay. Grandmother Green.”

The three of them sat at the table. Before they use their chopsticks, a maid walked to Grandmother Green and half whispered, “Mrs. Green, he said he didn’t want to go downstairs because of the noise. We just need to send meal upstairs.” Hearing it, Grandmother Green nodded slightly and said nothing else.

Lucia heard the servant’s words clearly beside her, and she was a little puzzled. From the maid’s words, she

could learn there was someone else in the house. But just now Lucia walked around with Grandmother Green, she neither heard Grandmother Green men­tion it, nor saw anyone else. Just when she was puzzled, Grandmother Green suddenly gave her a piece of pork ribs, “Lucia, try these ribs.” Lucia came back to her senses and smiled in response, and she didn’t think much about what had just happened. Lucia tasted the ribs, and she was very surprised. Sauce flavored pork ribs, crispy and tasty. The taste was really delicious! “It’s so delicious, Grandmother Green!” Hearing it, Grandmother Green laughed, “Our cook in our old house has been in the Adams family for more than ten years, and his skills are superb. So if you like it, you can often come and visit me in the future.” Lucia nodded almost without thinking, “Yes, I will definitely often come here!”

Chapter 022 As Lucia finished saying, she stuffed the remaining half of the ribs directly into her mouth. At this moment she

felt a sight. She looked up and saw August staring at her smilingly.

Lucia was embarrassed, and restraint her behavior a bit, “What are you looking at me for?”

August was asked by her and the smile on his face deepened, but it seemed that he wanted to hold back the smile, “Now that you like it, you can eat more.”

After August saying, he used chopsticks to pick up a piece of stir-fried seasonal vegetables and stuffed it into

his mouth gracefully. Seeing this, Lucia realized suddenly that the man sitting opposite was excellent. Even if he was only wearing a

casual shirt, and making the most ordinary movements, but he was really ele­gant.

In contrast, Lucia felt that she was too vulgar, so she did not dare to eat meat, and her movements got slower,

Grandmother Green next to them saw the actions of the two people, and uncon­sciously smiled. She cleared her throat and supported her granddaughter-in-law, “Lucia, he’s always been like that, eating very little and bland food! Let’s eat what we want to eat and don’t mind him!” Hearing Grandmother Green say this, Lucia tried not to laugh and look at August provokingly.

Then Lucia looked at Grandmother Green and nodded, and said, “Grandmother Green, I will!”

The woman’s childish gestures made August laugh bitterly, but in front of Grandmother Green, he did not say

anything and he just ate.

They all enjoyed the meal with laughter. Mostly it was Grandmother Green and Lucia against August, which made August eat half a bowl more than usual.

After dinner, Grandmother Green and Lucia walked in the courtyard. They were walking and chatting, but in a short while, Grandmother Green was a little sleepy. The maid who was following saw this and immediately explained to Lucia, “Ms. Lucia, Mrs. Green usually has to take a lunch break.”

Hearing it, Lucia immediately understood, and helped the maid to persuade Grandmother Green and send her

back to the bedroom. After soothing Grandmother Green to sleep. Lucia came out of the room.

Closing the bedroom door behind her gently, Lucia was relieved. She had thought that Grandmother Green would not like her, but it seemed that she had done a good job.

Thinking that August was still downstairs on the balcony calling to deal with business, she hurriedly walked faster, but before she reached the stairs, the door to the next bedroom suddenly opened.

Lucia stopped, and subconsciously looked over. She saw a wheelchair coming out of the room, and it seemed

that she was a little familiar to the man sitting in the wheelchair...

She squinted her eyes and saw the man smiling at her. Suddenly she remembered that he was the man who gave a pen to her! Then Lucia was confused about why could he be in Adams’ house?

“Lucia Mitchell?”

The man activated his electric wheelchair and approached Lucia directly, and he even called out her name

clearly

Lucia was surprised, “How...how do you know my name?”

The man smiled, “I just heard the name from the maids. They said she was my sister-in-law. But I didn’t expect it was you.”

“Sister-in-law?”

Lucia was very confused and blinked before she understood, “Are you...August’s brother?”

The man nodded slightly, and he still smiled and said clearly, ’’Well, my name is Bishop. Lucia was too surprised to say something. She had never heard anyone mention that August had a younger

brother.

However, looking at his action, it seems that he was not lying. Moreover, last time when she saw him in the

Chapter 122

store, she thought his appearance was similar to August’s. When Bishop saw that she was still surprised, he was not in a hurry, but just extended his hand towards her and

said smilingly, “How about introducing ourselves?” Lucia came back to her senses and smiled back at him, “Yes, my name is Lucia Mitchell.”

They two shook hands and smiled at each other.
