"I clearly said that I was fine and I will go out later. Why did you open the door? You did it on purpose!" Lucille roared.
It was not Lucille's character to shout. As this side of her was seen by Franklin, she was sure that he would definitely hate her and stay away from her like the others.
She felt uneasy and furious when she thought about this.
"Lucille, are you crazy? Do you think that we are willing to see you like this?" When Alma saw that her precious daughter was hit, she felt very distressed.
"Lucille, I'm sorry. I did not hear what you said. I did not mean it." Natasha was hit, but she did not forget to speak for Lucille.
Her goal had been achieved.
Everyone who saw Lucille's appearance would be frightened and would immediately leave. This had happened before.
"You did it on purpose. You intentionally made me eat spicy food and embarrassed me. I have nothing left. Why are you doing this to me?"
Natasha walked towards Lucille step by step. Her eyes were full of satisfaction as her plan had succeeded, but she said with a pitiful voice, "Lucille, I'm sorry. You can beat me or scold me if you want. I did not mean to let Franklin see you like this."
"Go away, go away, go away!" Lucille pushed her away and looked at Franklin, who was motionless behind Natasha. "Are you going to leave too? Then, just go. If you want to divorce me, I'll go with you tomorrow."
As Lucille spoke, she walked towards Franklin, who had not done anything. Franklin suddenly raised his hand and took Lucille in his arms. He lowered his head and asked softly, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"
The man looked at her with his gentle eyes. He looked very determined and did not avoid her.
Natasha was stunned. "Franklin, aren't you... Aren't you afraid?"
Lucille also could not believe it. She quickly used her sleeve to cover half of her face, "No, I just need to take medicine."
"We have medicine at home." Marie, who had stood aside, hurried to the kitchen and took out a box of medicine.
Alma did not expect that there was still medicine at home. She asked with a sulky expression, "Can this medicine still be taken? Has it expired?"
"Yes, it's edible. I bought it because the last bottle had expired. I was afraid that Lucille might be ill when she's home." Marie answered Alma's doubts, and then handed a glass of warm water and a pill to Lucille. "Miss Lucille, take the medicine first."
Lucille looked at the medicine in front of her, and her eyes suddenly became moist. "Thank you, Marie."
She opened her arms and hugged Marie.
She still remembered to stock up the medicine for her. How would she deliberately cook such a dish that did not look spicy but was so spicy?
After Lucille took the medicine, it would take a while for the allergy to subside. Therefore, she went to the kitchen to help Marie wash the dishes.
Franklin was invited to the living room by Marvin.
Another servant took care of the wound on Natasha's forehead.
After the wound was taken care of, Natasha pulled Franklin's sleeve, pouting, "Franklin, I really did not mean it. I really did not hear what Lucille said."
"Is that so?" Franklin glanced at her, and his expression did not look good.
"Natasha is very simple. She does not have any bad intentions. If she had heard Lucille, she would definitely not open the door." Marvin guessed Franklin's thoughts and quickly spoke for Natasha.
It was not good for a family to be on bad terms.
"But I was not startled and did not run away. Are you disappointed?" Franklin calmly pulled his sleeve from Natasha's hand while he spoke.
"It shows that you love my sister." Natasha blinked her eyes and looked innocent.
