Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 113 – Most of the people were already there, and the hall was full of people.
Greeves saw that it was about time, so he told everyone to go to the VIP seats on the second floor to eat.
The seating was pre-arranged, and after Lucia was seated, she found Irene sitting at the neighboring table, laughing and chatting with two women, while
August sat at the main table in the center area, with Ted and Lilian on the sidelines.
Before the birthday party began, Greeves made his usual speech, and once the usual process was completed, the food began to be served.
Enter title… After that, many people who knew each other toasted each other.
Lucia ate casually, and her heart had already flown to the table where Ted was.
Suddenly, August raised his head slightly and looked this way, coincidentally Lucia was looking that way.
From a distance, the two looked at each other. The moment when their eyes met, Lucia was unconsciously a little nervous.
In contrast, August was much calmer.He slightly glanced at her, and the expression on his face did not change.
Lucia withdrew her gaze, and not long after, her phone rang twice. She picked it up and saw that it was a WeChat message from August.
“Wait for him to get drunk, and don’t be in a hurry.” Lucia knew in her heart that this
“he” referred to Ted, and after receiving August’s instructions, she slowly calmed down. At this time, they could not rush.
If they made a wrong move, their plan would fail and they would lose everything.
Not long after, a man suddenly walked straight to Lucia, holding a glass of wine and smiling, “This lady, would you like to have a drink with me?”
Lucia looked up, squinted slightly, and examined him for a few seconds. She thought he looked familiar as if she had seen him somewhere before.
She looked at the neighboring table and saw Irene glancing at them.It suddenly became clear to her.
This man, who had been sitting at the next table, was someone Irene knew.
Now he suddenly came to make a toast and it must be Irene who have ordered him to do so.
Lucia knew exactly what she was trying to do in her heart. Sweeping a glance at the man, she smiled crookedly and said softly,
“We don’t seem to know each other?”
The man raised an eyebrow, unwilling to leave, “After this drink, we’ll know
each other.”
Lucia took a look at the wine in his glass.
Without saying anything, she reached out and picked up her glass on the
table, raising the glass in her hand at the man in front of Irene, and drinking
the wine in her glass.
Regarding Irene’s plan, she knew it by heart.
At this time, Irene asked other men to come over and toast her just to get her
drunk so that it would be easier to make follow-up actions.
The man also drank the wine down.
Seeing the empty seat beside Lucia, he nonchalantly sat down directly and
spoke, “You’re drinking like a fish.Lady, my family name is Child.What’s your
name?”
Lucia replied politely, “Lucia Mitchell.”
“Ms. Mitchell, it’s fate that we know each other. Why don’t we have another
drink?”
A light flashed under Lucia’s eyes, and after a few seconds’ pause, she did
not refuse, “Yes, then let’s have another drink.”
Saying that, she picked up the white wine next to her and poured a glass.
Then, raising the glass in her hand at the man, she tilted her head and drank
the wine in the glass.
The man did not expect Lucia to be so forthright, so, he smiled, picked up the
other side of the wine to fill a glass, and drank it down.
The two of them kept toasting each other, and after a few rounds, Lucia
looked as usual, but the man was already a little drunk.
Lucia pretended to be dizzy and held her forehead, smiling at him, “Sorry,
Mr.Child, | seem to have drunk a little too much.If there is a chance, we can
drink again next time.”
The man had a few glasses of wine in a row, and his stomach was not too
comfortable, so he nodded along with her words, “Okay, next time we can
drink again.”
Lucia was secretly relieved to see him turn away and return to the
neighboring table.She turned her head to the other side and rested her head
on her hands, squinting her eyes as if she was drunk.She had anticipated
that Irene might make a move on her, so she had prepared a special bottle of
“white wine” to keep in her hand.
The seemingly white and clear liquid was actually mineral water.
Anyway, as long as Irene believed that she had drunk a lot of alcohol, then
she had achieved her goal.
“Lucia?”
Hearing a male voice suddenly come from the side, Lucia first froze, followed
by some confusion to turn back.
Archibald was standing behind her, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
Until he saw Lucia’s face, he slowly returned to normal.
Archibald hesitated for a moment before asking, “What…what are you doing
here?”
Now seeing her ex-boyfriend, Lucia was very calm, “I’m here for Greeves’
birthday party. Aren’t you too?”
She looked around, but she didn’t see Carol’s figure, so she was a little
surprised.
Before Carol and Archibald were like Siamese twins, never separated, but
she didn’t expect to see only Archibald today.
Noticing her gaze, Archibald curled his lips and gave a bitter smile, “Carol is
on the other side.| quarreled with her and planned to go out for some air, but |
didn’t expect to run into you.”
Lucia heard that but her expression did not change.
Then, she said “hmm” and turned back without saying anything more.
But Archibald had no intention of leaving.
Seeing the empty seat beside Lucia, he sat down instead.
Archibald moved his lips and seemed to hesitate, but he finally spoke, “Lucia,
I’m sorry for what happened before.I…shouldn’t have treated you that way.”
Hearing him mention the previous incident, Lucia did not have any obvious
reaction, nodding her head and responding casually, “Well.”
Seeing her cold attitude, Archibald hesitantly moved his lips, took a deep
breath, and said, “In fact, after separating from you, Carol and | were not
happy. After we are getting married, we always quarreled.| did not have any
status in the family, and sometimes I still miss the time we had together…”
He sighed as he spoke, but Lucia was silent and did not answer.
Archibald and she now had their own lives, and there was little point in
mentioning the previous.
“Lucia, it was me who didn’t know how to cherish you at first.If time could be
turned back, | would definitely be with you…”
Not waiting for Archibald to finish his words, Lucia interrupted him directly,
“Archibald, Carol and you are quite compatible.Nowadays you have
everything you want and live at ease.Isn’t everything fine?”
She didn’t want to get entangled with him again.
If Carol saw them together, she would definitely get the wrong idea.
Archibald froze, seemingly not expecting Lucia to change so much.
Once no matter what he said, she would not resist.
But the more she was like this, the more he felt regret in his heart that he
didn’t cherish such an attractive woman.
Now he had absolutely no manly dignity and freedom to be with Carol.
But there was no pill of regret in the world.
Even if he had come to his senses and regretted it, everything could not go
back to the past.
After along sigh and a deep look at Lucia, Archibald stood up and said softly,
“Then I’ll leave you alone”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
After Archibald walked away, Lucia was secretly relieved.
Just now he was disturbing her around her, and today she had something
serious to do.
Soon, more than an hour had passed since August had sent her the
message.
She gripped the phone tightly, a little nervous. It was reasonable that
it was time to act.
