Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 816 – The company faces serious challenges
“Unreasonable?” She questioned him with a cold smile, “Should I let you keep Currer around without complaining to not be considered unreasonable?”
August did not respond to her words, but straight away threw a file in front of her.
Apart from one page of basic information about Edmund, the rest of the file was all daily pictures of him and Lucia together, as well as intimate photos of her and Phillip. She appeared in almost every picture in that thick pile of files.
“Slash…” The slap immediately plunged the noisy room into silence, and Lucia’s small hand, still with a slight tremor, was raised up high, not knowing whether to take it back or not. “Go back to your room and rest when you’ve had enough.”
August’s voice didn’t show any emotion. Lucia snorted desperately and thought to herself, “I have seen what happened by myself, why do I still have expectations of him?” August never trusted her. He investigated her six years ago and it was the same six years later.
The person who slept beside her all night actually never stopped spying on her. When she thought of this, there was a chill growing in her heart.
Apart from this, she was also terribly disappointed.
Lucia stepped out of the study, dragging Timothy and Janet who were still out of the situation out of the house. The only thing that could ease her depression was to leave this cage which was full of spies.
“Ding-dong.” The computer showed that a new email came to August. The title still started with Edmund Shea”, but the content was a photo of him and Lucia in the same car.
A dark light flashed in his eyes and he sent a message directly to Burton, Stop investigating Edmund and plan to wrap up earlier. After replying to the message,he directly dialed Joshua’s phone, “About Cardiff…” Burton’s stern voice interrupted him before he could finish his words.
“August, something has happened at the border!”A week later, A peaceful and tranquil atmosphere here permeates Sonirie
mansion. Lucia sat in a daze on a rocking chair in the garden, while Timothy and Janet whispered in Mrs. Mitchell’s ears from time to time.
Mrs. Mitchell cast her eyes at her daughter from time to time, and finally put down the watering can, wiped her hands, and sat beside Lucia. “You and August have been in a cold war for several days, are you still angry about him?”
Lucia didn’t need to think about it, she knew that Timothy and Janet
must have secretly leaked what they saw.
She barely pulled herself together and explained with a light smile, “There’s no
cold war between us. I’m just worried about you and Grandma’s health and came
over here just to keep you company.”
“You are my daughter and I know everything about you.” Mrs. Mitchell responded
with resignation, ‘If it wasn’t a cold war, August would have come to pick you up
long ago, you were stubborn as a child and you weren’t a smart one…” Lucid felt
a burst of headache when she heard these, and she barely raised a flattering
smile, soft voice coaxing her mother, “Mom, what happened between us was not
what you imagined.”
Mrs. Mitchell doubtfully took a glance at Timothy and Janet, seeing the two
children at the same time to show her “high expectation” expression, she gritted
her teeth, and immediately spoke up.
“Then you should go home quickly, do not rely on me to dawdle in food, me and
grandmother are living a good life. Now you are an encumbrance. You are just
dragging us behind, just go back to your own place.”
Mrs. Mitchell’s face was full of resistance and disgust. She told Lucia while
getting up, before leaving also adding, “I do not want to see you again this
afternoon.”
As soon as she left, Timothy and Janet immediately came to Lucia, one rubbing
her shoulders and the other pounding her legs, “Mom, Grandma has had enough
with us, why don’t we go back earlier?”
Lucia felt cheated and she said, “This is a collusion between you two and
Grandma, right?”
“We only told grandma you two were fighting.”
“The last part was grandma’s sincere words.” Hearing Timothy and Janet playing
along and picking on her shortcomings. She even felt more moodier so she
closed her eyes and stopped paying attention to the two little ones.
“Mom, my sister and I are definitely on your team, and the fact that I didn’t make
a move on your phone after you shut it down for so many days is proof of my
determination to be on the same side as you.”
“Maybe dad already knows it’s wrong, but has not been able to contact you, and
the house does not even have a hostess, the days must be very depressing,
what if there are bad women at home to steal it.” Janet also said in a serious
manner.
Timothy and Janet continued their speech for the next ten minutes. From Currer
to Phillip, Paula and Paul, they worried about every one of them. At last, they
finally mentioned August. Lucia was bored by the two children and seemed to
have changed her mind somehow, and finally reluctantly drove back to Austos
city.
As Janet said, everything seemed to be as usual in the house, but somehow
depression took over the place.
Before she could step into the house, Burton was already holding a thick pile of
documents and came out of the house in a hurry, almost colliding with her. She
seldom saw such a side of Burton, and didn’t care about the quarrel anymore,
and asked in an urgent voice, “What happened?”
“Young madam?!” Burton raised his head in dismay, looking at her as if looking at
the silver lining. “You finally came back, the company is now in an emergency
now.’
Lucia turned on her phone in a hurry, and numerous calls and messages came
out, and her phone almost malfunctioned.
August left Austos city the night she went to Sonirie. Burton only knew that he
had gone to the border to complete a very difficult task, the rest of the task was
confidential, and August did not disclose it.
A few days after he left, Lion Group and Visual Feast Studio faced serious
challenges at the same time. After the company’s land bid failed, the products in
the newly developed electrical industry also had quality problems and caused
injuries during use. Burton alone struggled to maintain the group’s operations and
forcibly suppressed several waves of shareholder movements. The board of
directors may be forced to replace senior management at any time, once the
company was planted a mole, it is even more difficult to manage.
The Visual Feast studio was currently managed by Leo Wensley, but because of
the slow production of manuscripts, quality was also declining, so it is completely
a loss of money to operate the studio now.
Lucia was holding the latest document handed over by Burton, with a
seriousness on her face that she has never seen before. Mr. Adams was still
lying in the hospital, and now the only person who could do her best to save the
Lion Group was Lucia…
“Burton, notify Leo to close the Visual Feast Studio, liquidate all the assets of the
studio, and return all the funds in the accounts to the company.”
Burton froze. “Young madam, this won’t work…” The studio was not yet to the
point of no return, and the studio’s reputation was not very good. If the studio was
closed now, it would be evidence that the studio lacked professional ability. It
would be hard to reopen the business.
“I don’t have the right to give order to you, or do you have the right to say ‘no’ to
me?” Lucia swept her cold eyes over him.
“I don’t dare.” He hastily lowered his head, feeling her determination to take care
of the whole company, gritted his teeth and said respectfully. I’ll get right on it,” “In
addition, give me a list of the equity holdings of the Lion Group, as well as the
situation and movements of the shareholders.” Her eyes fiercely darkened.
