Chapter 63.
Adam came home later in the afternoon and wasn't so Suprised to see Lucia there.
" Hey Lucia, how are you? "
" Am fine, President. " Though Lucia was a little close to Adam she still couldn't help but still give him the respect he deserves so she couldn't help but address him as president instead of the usual uncle or whatever.
" That's good, I hope you have eaten? "
" Of course I have, if not I won't be talking nicely. " She replied playfully.
Adam couldn't help but roll his eyes at her act.
She took his coat and placed it in the coat rack while asking, " by the way uncle, why did you have to go to work today since it's the weekend? "
" Well, I had some unfinished work to do so I had to go to the company to finish it. "
" Oh, but why didn't you just let your assistant do it? " She asked with curiosity.
