Chapter 417 Ignorant Women
The next day, Paul left West Bridge very early to catch a flight.
He wouldn't be back until a week later.
Lucia offered to send him to the airport, but Paul refused.
She prepared breakfast for Bill and Elisa and then woke up the two children.
After a busy morning, the household chores were almost done.
In the next two days, except for going out to meet Director Brook, Lucia stayed at home almost all the time.
On the third day, shooting finally began.
Lucia arrived at the set, met with the staff of all departments, and officially started working the next day.
Soon it was the end of the day and Lucia suddenly received a call from a delivery guy.
She went to the gate where the delivery guy holding a bouquet of flowers asked her, "Ms. Mitchell?"
Lucia nodded and watched as the delivery guy handed the bouquet of flowers to her.
She froze and reached out to take it in confusion.
Had Paul known she started working today and ordered it? She had never told him she was going to make a public service announcement.
With this in mind, Lucia was even more confused.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
She nodded to the delivery guy and turned around, but as soon as she looked down, she saw a small square card among the flowers.
She picked it up and couldn't help but frown when she saw the words on it.
"Ms.Mitchell, if you didn't like the last gift, do you like this one?"
In the lower right corner of the card was the same bizarre and unique spider web symbol.
Looking at the symbol, Lucia felt a chill down her spine.
The jade and the card had worried August last time, which meant that the person behind it was a threat! The person actually knew where she worked.
It was too scary.
Lucia took a deep breath, looked around, and bit her lip.
She looked down at the flowers again and felt that they were not as pretty as they had been.
After hesitating for a while, she went to the trash can and threw the flowers in it directly.
She'd better be careful with such questionable things.She tore the card in half and also threw it in the trash.
After that, she went back to the set.
In a nondescript black car on the side of the road not far away, a man was recording on his phone.
When Lucia disappeared, he encrypted the video and sent it to another person.
In the dimly lit private room, Mr.Denko was having a woman on each arm.
Seeing the screen flicker, he slowly reached out, picked the phone up, and clicked on it.
It was a video of Lucia from the moment she received the flowers to the moment she threw them away.
Watching Lucia throw the flowers in the trash can, Mr.Denko couldn't help but chuckle.
His voice was low and sounded like some kind of animal whimper.
Suddenly, a woman leaned over and looked curiously at his phone.
"Sir, what's so interesting?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mr.Denko pinched her shoulder hard.
The woman immediately cried out and grimaced in pain.
The next second, Mr.Denko pushed her away in disgust and said coldly, "Who allowed you to look at my phone? I'll gouge your eyes out!"
He had always hated ignorant and disobedient women.
This woman had completely angered him.
The woman was pushed to the floor.
Obviously, she hadn't expected Mr.Denko to change so fast.
Frightened by his cold face, she quickly crawled out.
"I was wrong.I'll get out of here..."
Mr.Denko glanced at her coldly and turned back.
The other woman's face turned pale with fear and she didn't dare to move at all.
Mr.Denko pushed her away impatiently and said with a frown, "Get out."
The two women immediately ran out in a panic.
The door of the room closed with a bang.
Just then, Bishop on the other couch suddenly chuckled.
"Mr.Denko, don't you like the two beautiful women I got for you this time?"
Mr.Denko snorted.
"I hate ignorant women."
He watched the video again and sneered.
"August's woman is ignorant too."
Then he dropped his phone on the table and drank his wine in one gulp.
Bishop glanced at his phone and said flatly, "Then you'll have to teach her a lesson."
Mr.Denko nodded with a smile.
"You're right."
He looked up and locked eyes with Bishop.
They smiled at each other and clinked glasses.
Lucia returned home from the set.
She hadn't even changed her clothes when she received a call from Paula.
Paula said excitedly on the other end of the line, "Lucia! Good news!"
She had been upset lately.
Why was she so happy? Lucia teased her on purpose.
"What is it? Are you in a relationship?"
"Come on! I don't want to be in a relationship right now.I just want to focus on work!"
Lucia couldn't help but smile and ask, "So what's making you so happy?"
"My band is touring Englance next month and I've been chosen!"
"What?"
Lucia was surprised.
"Really?"
Paul was usually careless, but she really loved music, and Lucia was really happy for her.
Paula said, "Yes! We'll leave before long.I'll be on my best behavior!"
"That's good.How long?"
"It's not settled yet.Let me take you to dinner tomorrow and we can talk about it!"
"Okay!"
The two of them immediately decided to meet the next evening.
Lucia was really happy for Paula, but she was also sad.
Maybe she wouldn't see Paula for a long time.She decided to prepare a gift for Paula, but she didn't know what was appropriate.
Suddenly, she saw the white dress in her closet and it inspired her.
The next afternoon, Lucia packed up, left Timothy and Janet with Elisa, and hurried out.
She drove to Jennifer's studio, took some pictures, and carefully selected a dress as a gift for Paula.
After that, there was only one hour left.
She put the gift box in the car and drove straight to the destination.
It was cloudy and drizzling, which made the summer evening comfortable.
On the way, Lucia passed a cake store.She pulled over and walked to the trunk to get her umbrella.She was going to buy a cake for Paula.
In a good mood, she opened the trunk, but when she saw what was in it, she turned pale with fear, took two steps back, and screamed out loud!
