Chapter 208
"Mrs. Johnson, is it convenient for you to sit next to me?"
When Lucy saw that the two of them were lost in thought, a sweet female voice sounded in her ear.
She looked up and saw a woman with a sweet and yful appearance. She did not know her, but
Maddox was standing beside the woman.
She didn''t know what was going on and was stunned for a moment.
The woman took the initiative to introduce herself. "I''m Zoe. Next to me is my fiance, Maddox. Maybe
it''s rude to say that I''m sitting beside you, but Mr. Johnson should know me."
She didn''t say hello to Mr. Johnson first because she was afraid that Mrs. Johnson would
misunderstand.
"Has the Maddox been engaged to someone?" Lucy looked at Maddox subconsciously. When he
thought of how he had framed her, he had mixed feelings for a moment. "Miss Bell, take a seat with the
Maddox."
Arthur raised his head and looked at Maddox. The two of them looked at each other and said nothing.
However, the atmosphere was somewhat tense. A few secondster, a faint smile appeared on
Maddox''s face. He first looked away and sat down.
"Maddox?" Zoe was a little surprised. "Mrs. Johnson and Maddox know each other. He didn''t tell me
when we came."
After that, he red at Maddox.
Maddox smiled and rubbed her hair. He said with a doting look on his face, "Lucy is so beautiful. If I say
that I know her, won''t you be jealous?"
"Mrs. Johnson already has Mr. Johnson, and you don''t have a chance. Why should I be jealous?" Zoe
pouted andined casually.
In addition to her, the faces of the other three people on the table froze for a moment.
"What did I say wrong?" Zoe felt that the atmosphere was a little subtle.
Lucy smiled and said, "Arthur and I are judges after all. If we speak to each other in private, I''m afraid
that other parents will be worried about our results."
"Look at me, I almost forgot that this is the parents'' meeting. I''ll make a long story short. I won''t dy
you and Mr. Johnson for too long." Zoe didn''t think much about it and pointed to the position of the fat
woman. "I came here today for Jenny."
Lucy raised his eyebrows slightly. "Zoe stood up for the fat woman? It doesn''t look like it."
"Jenny identally offended you and Mr. Johnson. She has always been very guilty. She asked me to
apologize to you two. I hope that you can be magnanimous and forget the unhappiness this time." Zoe
looked around Lucy''s suit jacket and was very envious. Mr. Johnson doted on his wife very much!
Only then did Lucy understand the other party''s intentions. "This time, I don''t need to care about it. I
also hope that Miss Bell can tell thatdy that in the future, when she speaks and does things, she will
spare her."
The fat woman had apologized and apologized. She would not care about it anymore.
"I''ll thank you on behalf of Jenny. I''ll tell her what you said. I won''t dy your parents'' meeting. Next
time, I''ll invite you and Mr. Johnson to dinner." Zoe stood up and wanted to say goodbye to Arthur, but
he didn''t even look at her, so he could only give up.
Maddox nced at Lucy from the corner of his eyes, stood up with a smile, and left with her fingers
sped.
The two of them were talking andughing. The handsome man and beautiful woman were extremely
eye-catching. Their rtionship seemed to be very good, but Lucy always felt that something was
wrong.
Maddox was very kind to Miss Bell, but she felt that something was missing.
But what they did had nothing to do with her. Maybe she would be an ordinary friend or a passer-
by in the future.
"Are you feeling bad knowing that Maddox is engaged to someone else?" Arthur said in a mocking
tone. She could not even see Maddox''s back anymore. She was still watching!
Lucy withdrew his gaze, and his expression was calm. "It''s just that Maddox suddenly got engaged. I
was just a bit surprised."
She didn''t know why her Maddox had framed her, but he had helped her so many times that they had
been written off.
Moreover, the Maddox had lost his grandfather because of this photo, which could be regarded as the
result of his own evil deeds.
Arthur''s handsome face tensed up. She didn''t even care about Maddox''s attempt to frame her. He was
so generous!
"I''m going to the toilet." Her clothes were wet and her stomach was a little cold.
Arthur gave her a few pieces of warm babies with a cold face. "Special assistant insisted on giving
them to me."
"Thank you." Lucy stuck the warm babies to his body in front of him.
Arthur ignored her. After she left, he looked at her back and frowned. There were only a few things,
could they really keep warm? He should have snatched all three bags that his Max had bought!
When Lucy arrived at the bathroom, she saw Maddox standing at the door and smoking.
"Maddox." She pursed her lips and walked into the bathroom after greeting him.
Perhaps because of what Arthur had done to the Pate family, or because of the bed photos of "her" and
the Maddox, she didn''t even know what to say after meeting him.
Maddox tugged at her wrist. Behind the smoke, his handsome face looked a little unreal. "Lucy, are you
doing well now?"
"I''m fine." Lucy struggled a few times but failed to break free. "Maddox, please let go, or Miss Bell will
misunderstand."
"I''m fine." Lucy struggled a few times but failed to break free. "Maddox, please let go, or Miss Bell will
misunderstand."
She was a woman herself and knew that women would mind their other half having an affair with other
men.
"I''ll let go. Don''t go, okay?" Seeing her nod, Maddox let go.
Lucy took a few steps back. This way, even if Miss Bell came out to see them, she wouldn''t
misunderstand.
Silence.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Maddox smiled coldly. "Lucy, when did we be like this?"
In the past, they could be friends, but now they couldn''t even bepared with strangers.
"Maddox has be even more handsome. Isn''t that good?" Lucy purposely misunderstood what he
meant.
Instead of embarrassing them, Maddox asked, "Lucy, are you really doing well now?"
Without waiting for Lucy''s reply, he continued, "I don''t think you''re doing well, so I did a very silly thing: I
got someone to act as you. I took some pictures of you with me and sent them to Arthur. I wanted him
to dislike you so that you could get rid of him."
Lucy''s pupils contracted. The reason why the Maddox had sent those bed photos to Arthur was
actually for her!
Maddox let out a bitterugh. "But I was wrong. I didn''t help you and caused my grandfather to..."
At the end of his words, he choked with sobs and couldn''t say anything.
His grandfather had raised him since he was a child, but he had killed him.
"Maddox, I..." The warm baby began to y a role. Her clothes were warm, but Lucy''s heart was cold.
Maddox had gotten the Pate family into trouble twice because of her. Without her grandfather, she was
still ming him!
Zoe, who had just left the bathroom, interrupted her with a smile. "Mrs. Johnson, we meet again!"
"En." Lucy''s throat was sore, fearing that she might find something strange, so he didn''t say anything
else.
Maddox put out the cigarette and threw it into the trash can. He took the initiative to hold Zoe''s hand
and said, "We have to go shopping. Let''s go first."
"Alright." Lucy wanted tough, but he couldn''t.
Zoe said with her eyes curved, "Goodbye, Mrs. Johnson. Let''s go shopping next time."
Lucy nodded. When she entered the washroom, tears welled up in her eyes. She might never be able
to get rid of what she owed to her Maddox!

"Lucy?" Arthur called out to her from outside the toilet. She hadn''t been back for such a long time, so
he was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
