Chapter 104

Chapter 104 Seeing that Jamie was about to walk away, Lucia hurriedly took a few steps to follow him and asked, "Are you really going to find August?"

Jamie raised an had to walk with him in the direction of the company´ and asked another question, "Do you really have other things to see August?"´ Jamie nodded slightly, "Don’t worry.

I still know what to say and what not to say."´ Hearing him say that, Lucia was relieved.´ When they arrived at the office and waited for the elevator, Jamie looked at Lucia beside him and said, "I’ll walk you back to your department first."

Lucia her and Jamie together, they would probably say something again.

"Why not?"

Jamie drooped his eyes and asked tentatively, "Do you think I’m´ embarrassing you?"´ "No, anyway, I’ll just go back by myself."

During the argument, there was a sudden sound of footsteps and a colleague whispered, "Look, President Adams is here!"´ Hearing the word "President.

Adams", Lucia subconsciously turned her head´ and saw a group of people led by August walking this way.

Standing in the middle, Before he could finish his sentence, August had already turned his head.´ August was a little surprised to see Jamie, and his face was somber when he´ saw Lucia next to him.

Why were they together? Ignoring the report of his men, August stepped away and walked straight´ toward them.´ Half a meter away, he stopped.

Looking at Jamie, he asked in a cold voice, "Mr.Nordhaus, how are you?"´ Jamie curled his lips, smiling insincerely, and lifted his chin, "Mr.Adams, do you were cold, as usual, "If you want, I’m always available."

Jamie smiled, "Okay, let’s have a cup then."

With his gaze pausing on Lucia, August said quietly, "Since Lucia is so familiar with Mr.Nordhaus, why don’t you come along too?"

Saying so, he stepped towards the exclusive elevator inside.´ When she was suddenly named, Lucia panicked.´ Why did August ask her to come along? In this situation, she didn’t dare to ask more questions.

In order not to anger´ August, she had to follow Jamie to the exclusive elevator.

The men who were originally elevator door closed.

In the closed space, no one was talking, making the atmosphere a bit awkward.´ Jamie did it on purpose or something.

Just when the elevator was silent without a pick you up tonight?"´ Lucia was stunned, not expecting Jamie to be so bold as to ask her this in front´ of August.´ Now She didn’t know if she should answer him, in a proper dilemma.´ Lucia clutched the corner of her coat and forced a fake smile, "No need..."

Saying so, she also did not forget to make a wink at Jamie.

Jamie saw this and laughed.

As if he are you smiling so hard?"´ Lucia dodged away in a hurry to avoid suspicion, without knowing whether to smile or cry As expected, August turned his head, with a pair of black eyes glowing with´ cold light, which made her a little scared.

Now she wanted to kill Jamie!´ Finally, along with the sound of "ding-dong", the elevator arrived.

Seeing August take the lead in getting out of the elevator, Lucia took a deep breath of relief and reached the President’s Office.´ As August walked into the office, Jamie swept a glance at the office decoration,´ then a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "I remember the last time I came to August naturally knew that Jamie had his tongue in his cheek.

He walked´ across to Jamie and sat down, looking at Lucia, and ordering, "Go prepare two cups of coffee and bring them over."´ Lucia stood in place and hesitated for a second. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Only then did she react, she´ answered, turned around, and walked out of the room.

The reception of guests, and serving tea and water were the work of the secretary of the President’s Office, but August at this time ordered her and she still couldn’t resist.

When Lucia stepped out of the office, August turned his head and looked at´ Jamie with a colder look.

Noticing his gaze, Jamie smiled instead of being angry and asked softly, "I wonder what President Adams would like to talk to me about today? Is it the land in the West End, or Lucia?"´ August sat up straight and a thin layer of anger flared up in his dark eyes.

Two seconds later, he spoke, his voice low but cool, "That land and Lucia are both mine."´ When Jamie heard him say that, his face became somber and he grunted, "What if I said that I was going to pursue her?"´ A cold light flashed in August’s eyes and he said in a deep voice, "You think you have a chance?"´ When he heard the word "divorce", August’s face instantly turned somber.

He´ tensed up, "Even if we divorce, you won’t have a chance."´ He wouldn’t give anyone the chance.´ Just then, the door of the room was pushed open and Lucia walked in with coffee.

She looked at the two men sitting opposite each other on the couch and inexplicably felt a chill.

The two men stared at each other, giving a sense of antagonism between them without a word.´ Lucia stepped forward, placed the tray on the table, and said softly, "Your coffee´ is ready."

She had just brought the coffee to the table when August suddenly spoke up, "Why don’t we talk about the land in the West End?"

Hearing him change the subject, Jamie curled his lips, following his topic and´ saying, "For that piece of land, Mr.Adams should have known a lot."

August took a sip of coffee and spoke without haste, "Windswift Group can’t do´ such a big project on your own, right?"

Lucia was next to them, listening to the two talking about the West End Property.

She hesitated to leave the office, but she didn’t dare to leave without August’s say-so.

She stood by the side for nearly 20 minutes, yawning several times, and finally, the two men had almost finished talking.

Jamie winked at Lucia before he left and said with a smile, "Wait for my call."

Lucia froze, watching him walk out of the office, and when she looked back, she´ too."

August stared at her for a long time without speaking.

Finally, he asked in a deep voice, "Jamie is pursuing you?"´ Lucia was confused and then quickly realized what he was talking about.

She guessed that Jamie and August had said something when she wasn’t in´ August care?´ With a little expectation, Lucia hesitated for a moment and moved her lips.

"||´ guess so."

When August heard that, his eyebrows furrowed slightly and his face a little surprised to see August and Lucia confronting each other in the room.

"Mr.Adams, they’re all there, just waiting for you to go to the meeting."

August flicked a glance at him and replied lightly before getting up and striding towards the door.´ Lucia stood where she was and watched as the man walked past her without´ her, saying word by word, "Anyway, don’t accept it."

His calm voice sounded so imperious and deterrent, leaving her no reason to´ refuse.

After those words, he turned around and left with big strides.

Lucia took a deep breath, with her hands clenched and unclenched down at her sides.

Eventually, she he didn’t want her to accept another man’s advances? Or was it because he was simply possessive? Thinking about it over and again, she felt that it was more likely to be the latter, After all, she had been with him for so long and had seen more than once how much he cared about Jeanne.

She knew very well that in August’s heart, she was nothing compared to Jeanne.´ Lucia laughed at herself.

She stepped out of the office, leaving behind all the thoughts that plagued her, and headed back to the Administration Department She had just walked to the public desk area of the department when Lisa saw her and took the initiative to approach her, saying in a somewhat anxious tone, "Lucia, where did you go?"

"I went to the President’s Office."

Lucia perked up and asked gently, "What is´ it?"´ said that, they could all hear it Almost immediately, Lucia felt that they were all looking at her.

They had been gossiping about her and Ted.

Now Ted didn’t avoid suspicion and came to her directly in the Administration Department.

That was a deliberate attempt to give others something to talk about, wasn’t it?´ towards her office.

When she reached her office and opened the door, she saw Ted sitting in her´ office chair and casually flipping through some documents.

Seeing her walk in, Ted smirk, "It seems that you’re quite idle at work, Lucia.

You can still wander around during working hours.

Is there something more important than work?"

Lucia heard the sarcasm in his words.

She managed to force a smile.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr.Stebbing.

Is there something you want to see me about´ today?"´ Carter had specially stated that Lucia only needed to be Ted’s temporary assistant for a week when she assigned the task.

Now that it was already the second week, it was reasonable to say that Ted had no right to ask Lucia to do anything "Yes."

Ted smirked and his turbid eyes were fixed squarely on her.

"There’s a´ drinking party tonight.

You’re coming with me"Thinking of what had happened last time, Lucia subconsciously tried to refuse ’I just needed to work as your temporary assistant for a week, Mr.Stebbing, Your regular assistant is already here, isnt he?"

Hearing that, Ted raised his hand and knocked on the desk.

"He’s taking the day´ off, so you have to come with me."´ With that, he stood up and said in a deep voice, "I’ll meet you in the lobby after work He didn’t give her any chance to refuse.

Lucia frowned.

Thinking of what August had told her, she finally suppressed the´ anger in her heart At this point, she had no other choice but to endure it.´ Just now when she came back from his office, he was going to a meeting, so even if she went to him now, she was afraid that he wouldn’t have time to see her.

her pocket.

Then, she ordered Hydrodol online.

Only when she had done all this did she feel less worried.

It was just a drinking party.

Ted wouldn’t eat her even if he was ruthless.

Thinking that, Lucia felt much better.

The working hours in the afternoon flew by, and before she knew it, it was time to leave work.

Lucia took two of the Hydrodol capsules she had gotten and deliberately changed into a conservative long-sleeved shirt and trousers before leaving the office In the lobby, Lucia waited for more than twenty minutes before Ted showed up He glanced at Lucia and said in a deep voice, "Let’s go."

Lucia nodded, followed Ted, and got into the car with him.

Soon, the car arrived at the Hibiscus Garden, their destination.

It was a well-known restaurant in Austos City.

Upon seeing Ted at the entrance of the restaurant, the waiter bowed to him and Guided by the waiter, they arrived at the pre-booked private room.

Lucia was´ relieved to see that all the bosses had their assistants or secretaries with them.´ This time, unlike last time, Lucia just stood there and did what Ted told her to´ do from the beginning to the end, without having to drink a single drop of wine´ Seeing that the party came to an end after rounds of drinking, Lucia secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was glad that this time was not like last time.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t really know how to deal with it.´ The party was over.

Some of the managers and bosses left before others.

There were three or four men left who seemed to be well acquainted with Ted.

They were laughing and joking about something in the corridor until they dispersed at the entrance.´ Out of the restaurant, Lucia followed Ted to the car at the side of the road.

She opened the door for Ted and gently warned, "Watch your head, Mr.Stebbing."´ When he got into the car, Lucia was relieved and said gently, "It’s getting late,´ Mr.Stebbing.

If there’s nothing else..."

Before she could finish her words, Ted waved In the dimly lit car, his eyes glowed coldly, like the eyes of some animal.

Seeing do for you, Mr.Stebbing?"´ Ted said in a deep voice, "Get in."´ Lucia was a little apprehensive.

She checked the time.

It was after eight in the´ evening.

She took a deep breath and got into the car.

The door of the car was closed.

She heard the man next to her saying to the driver, "To the Time Club."´ Hearing these words, Lucia turned to Ted with some consternation and asked, "Are you going to have another drink, Mr.Stebbing?"´ It seemed that a trace of contempt flickered in his eyes as he said with a smirk, "Do you think doing business is so nice and easy in the world, Lucia? Just a dinner party and a talk in the office will do? Do you know how many deals are made over drinks?"

Hearing that, Lucia sat next to him with her hands clenched so tight together that her palms were sweating.
