Chapter 197
Lucy collected his scattered thoughts and first used alcohol cotton to treat his injuries. Then, he poured
a bit of medicinal oil into his hands. After applying both of his hands properly, he then began to smear
them over his back.
At the moment when her cool fingertips and skin were touched, Arthur''s skin shrank a little, and his
breathing became heavier unnaturally.
Lucy didn''t notice his abnormality. After carefully applying it on him, he used a tissue to wipe his hands.
"Alright, get up."
She regretted going to the Pate family''s house rashly. After what had happened today, she had ruined
her grandfather''s funeral as well.
Thinking of the death of her Maddox''s grandfather, she had a headache. "How can I repay my life?"
As soon as Arthur sat up, he saw her distracted look, and he frowned slightly.
"Arthur, I want to talk to you about something." Lucy looked at him and said seriously. She had already
implicated the Pate family enough. She couldn''t implicate the Pate family anymore!
Arthur put on his shirt and began to button it. "If it''s about the Pate family, there''s no need to talk about
it."
"Nanlu Arthur!" Lucy stood up, and he stressed every word. "I admit that my Maddox has confessed to
me, but it''s only here. We haven''t even touched our hands, and we don''t have any other ambiguous
rtionship. Now that my grandfather has passed away, please let go of the Pate family."
"That''s all?" Arthur sneered. He took out his mobile phone, transferred it to the bed photo of Maddox
and Lucy, and put it in front of her.
Lucy''s eyes suddenly widened. His first reaction was that the photo was taken in a photo!
Arthur put away his phone, leaned over, and his face almost touched hers. "Maddox asked a girl
named Ruby to pretend to be you and take this photo before the New Year. Now, do you still think it''s
only limited to this photo?"
This piece of news caused Lucy''s mind to buzz. He didn''t recover for a long time.
In her impression, he had always been a gentle and humble gentleman. She had never thought that he
would do such a thing!
"As long as something happens, you can choose to trust others without hesitation, but you have never
thought about believing me?" Arthur pinched her chin, and there seemed to be a me in his eyes.
Their breaths intertwined with each other, but there was no ambiguous feeling at all. There was only a
tense tension between them.
Lucy looked straight at him and suddenlyughed. "What about you? When you saw this photo, did you
choose to believe me or be angry? I guess it''s thetter."
She was not qualified to question him, nor was he qualified to question her, because there was no trust
between them at all.
She was not qualified to question him, nor was he qualified to question her, because there was no trust
between them at all.
Arthur''s thin lips tightened into a straight line.
Lucy knew that he had guessed correctly. However, for some reason, he felt a bit disappointed.
"Knock! Knock! Knock!"
The doctor pushed the door open and came in. "Mr. Johnson, there''s a ward in urgent need of a ward.
Look..."
The hospital''s bed had been very tense.
Arthur put on his suit jacket with his left hand and went straight out of the door.
"Thank you." Lucy forced out a smile. After expressing his thanks, he followed behind Nan Kunzhe in a
muddle-headed manner. First, it was Maddox Grandpa''s death, and then, it was Maddox''s schemes.
Her mind was currently in a mess.
...
After leaving the hospital, the little fellow went back to the old house, while Lucy and Arthur went back
to Lindbarry Chateau.
They exchanged a few words along the way. After returning to the Lindbarry Chateau, they went back
to their rooms respectively, without even looking at each other.
Seeing this, Aunty Julianne shook her head helplessly. "When will such a lifee to an end?"

Lucy returned to his room and quietly sat on the bed.
Too many things had happened that day. First, Arthur suddenly asked her out for dinner and chased
Elyse away in person. Then, there was news of his grandfather''s funeral, and Arthur was beaten up for
her. Finally, Arthur took out his bed photograph and said that his Maddox had schemed against her...
Just as her heart was in a mess, Arthur suddenly pushed the door open and came in with a dark face.
"What''s the matter?" Lucy asked.
Nanfu Arthur gave her a cold nce and walked up to her. He stuck the item in his hand to her face
and said, "Take it."
Lucy subconsciously caught it, and only then did he discover that he was holding a cooked egg.
They had just had a fight, but he was still so concerned about her, which made her feel a little
complicated.
Arthur handed her the things and went out. After a while, he came in with seven or eight steaming
towels.
"What''s wrong..." Before Lucy could finish asking, he grabbed the egg and applied a hot towel to her
face.
The towel was very hot, but not too hot. It went all the way to her face and went all the way to her heart.
Looking at his serious handsome face, she was a little confused at this moment. "If it''s just for the sake
of the child, he doesn''t need to do these things at all. The injury of his face doesn''t affect her giving
birth to a child. Why did he do that?"
"Arthur, you treat me so well, don''t you..." Just for the sake of the child? Do you want to divorce me
after I give birth to the baby and never let me see the two children again?
At this momentLucy didn''t want to guess what he was thinking and wanted to ask him face to face.
However, as soon as he said the beginning, he was interrupted by Kh''s pig-killing shout.
"Yiran! Lucy! Lucy, where are you?"
Chad shouted anxiously from behind, "Kh, I''m your father. Can you stop running? The ground is
covered with snow... Slow down, three people jump down the stairs. Do you think you''re a rabbit?
Kh, can you die if you slow down?"
Peng!
The door was opened.
Like a pregnant woman with a pillow tied to her belly, Kh ran lightly in front of Lucy. She held her
face in her hands and looked at it from left to right.
He circled her once again and looked at her from all directions. Finally, he pressed her belly with a
nervous face.
Arthur''s expression became more and more unsightly as Kh''s filthy ws moved in all directions.
"You''ve taken too much medicine?" Lucy pped her hand away with a look of disgust.
"When I heard that you were surrounded and beaten by the Pate family, my soul was scared out of my
wits!" Kh choked and hugged her in her arms.
"Don''t worry." She was only pped, and the rest of it was Arthur who took it for her.
Kh was still holding on tightly to her. "Fortunately... Fortunately, my godson is fine. If something were
to happen to my godon son, who would be willing to be engaged to my daughter?"
Lucy coldly pushed her away and continued to apply a hot towel to her face.
"Are there any other injuries other than the face?" Seeing that her good friend was fine, Kh''s heart
had returned to its original state.
Lucy nced in the direction of Arthur and was still a little moved. "Maddox grandma even used her
walking stick to hit me a few times. Arthur blocked it for me."
If those canes fell on her, she might be lying on the bed now.
Kh looked at Arthur as if she had seen a ghost and asked directly, "Mr. Johnson, just say it. What do
you mean? Do you like your ex-girlfriend or your current wife? If you like your ex-girlfriend, why are you
protecting her? Which sperm did you contribute, or is it for something else?"
"If you really like your ex-girlfriend, don''t flirt with her all day long. You''re the most annoying one!"
