Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 135 – Seeing Lucia’s expression, August realized what was going on.She thought
that he and Adeline had some kind of shameful relationship, didn’t she? August actually felt a little amused when he understood what she was saying.
He had never expected that she would speak up for Jeanne. After some surprise, August slightly curled his lips.
The expression on his face did not change much, but he was entertained by her reaction, thinking she was quite funny like that.
A moment later, he asked lightly, “Tell me, what are you doing here?” Usually, Lucia would try to run away when she met him in the company, but
now she came to see him in his office, so there must be something.
However, Lucia felt so angry that she obviously didn’t want to say anything more to him, so she coldly uttered a word, “Nothing.”
After that, she decided to leave. When she turned around, she moved her lips and murmured in an unclear way, “Scumbag…”
Although her voice was low and muffled, August still heard what she said. With a glint in his eyes, he moved his lips coldly.
“Stop.” She actually called him a scumbag? How dare she! August was angry and laughing.
Without saying another word, he walked toward her on his long legs. Lucia was startled and secretly gasped in disbelief.
She hadn’t expected that he would hear her curse him behind his back!
In addition, she had deliberately said it in such a low voice that normally no one could hear her.
So, he wasn’t a normal man, was he? Of course, Lucia didn’t know that August’s five senses were more sensitive than those of ordinary people.
He could detect even the slightest movement, not to mention a word. Lucia paused and her body stiffened. If she was caught by August like this, there would be no good consequences! It was best for her to leave now! She gritted her teeth and pretended she didn’t hear anything as she went on stepping out.
But no sooner had she grabbed the handle and pulled the door open a little than a fair-and-clear-skinned hand with distinct knuckles and long fingers
came over to slam the door shut and pushed her against it. Lucia was so shocked that she almost screamed.
hen she looked up, she saw the man’s handsome face right in front of her. He looked calm, showing no signs of happiness or anger, but his
expressionless face was still perfect and impeccable. Her throat tightened and she forced herself to stay calm.
“What?” August frowned. His voice was so deep that it seemed to be weighing on her. “What did you just say, Lucia?”
He tightened his jawline a bit condescendingly. It seemed that he was gritting his teeth slightly as he said, “Say it again.”
Looking at the man’s dark, deep eyes, Lucia wouldn’t even say boo to a
goose.
Her eyes wandered.
“I didn’t say anything.”
If she admitted it directly, she was afraid that August would give her a hard
time! She denied it vocally, but inside, she couldn’t help feeling regretful! She
shouldn’t have said that here.
When she got out of this door, it would be fine no matter how many times she
cursed him.
However, she hadn’t been able to stop herself from blurting it out, and he had
heard her, so she was asking for trouble, wasn’t she? Seeing that the
woman’s attitude changed instantly, August felt even more amused.
She was obviously afraid of him, but just now, she had been bold enough to
curse him, so she was typically mean and timid.
He reached out to grab Lucia’s chin, forced her to look at him with a little
push, and lightly parted his thin lips.
“What did you just say? Say it again.”
At this point, Lucia dared not say that again.
She had to take a deep breath and pretended to be innocent.
“I…didn’t say anything.”
Hearing that, August raised his eyebrows slightly.His thumb moved up to
brush her red, soft lips as he deliberately leaned in closer.
“But I heard you clearly just now.”
When the man’s cool breath swept over her, Lucia’s heart beat faster.
She didn’t dare to look him in the eye or reply to him.
He brushed her lips with his rough fingertip, which made her tremble
sensitively.
August’s eyes darkened and he asked unhurriedly, “No?”
Lucia didn’t know what to say, feeling nervous.She was at the mercy of him
now, like fish on a chopping board.
Whether she said it or not, it would not end well! Just then, there was a
sudden knock at the door.
“Knock!”
The door vibrated with the sound of knocking.
Leaning against the door, Lucia shivered with shock and her face turned pale.
The next second, Burton’s voice came.
“Mr.Adams, Joshua is here.I told him to go to the reception room.”
When August heard that, he didn’t hesitate and immediately said, “I’m
coming.”
With that, he looked down at the woman who was pressed against the door
and could not move.
Something flickered in his eyes.
He seemed to curl his lips slightly and lowered his voice as he whispered in
her ear, “You won’t get off so easily next time.”
He could wait.
Anyway, there would be a time for it.
After that, he released her, opened the door, and strode out.
Lucia froze on the spot.
What the man had just said was still ringing in her ears.
She took a deep breath in a panic to calm her mind.
Why did he sound like she was the one who was in the wrong when he was
the one who was having an affair? Lucia was a little angry at her reaction just
now.
She shook her head, calmed down a little, and then walked out of the office.
Within a few steps, she suddenly remembered what she had come to August
for.
She had come to ask him for Dr.
Long’s contact information, but she forgot all about it when all that happened!
Lucia shook her head helplessly.
She had no choice but to go to lunch first.
When Lucia was having lunch, Paula suddenly called.
As soon as she answered, Lucia heard Paula’s lively voice coming from the
other end.
“Hello, Lucia, let’s go out this weekend, okay?”
“I’m afraid I can’t, Paula.I have to go to Franksfurt in two days for business.”
Paula was a little disappointed.
She asked, “Go to Franksfurt for business? Why haven’t I heard you talk
about it?”
Lucia smiled.
Hearing the disappointment in Paula’s voice, she said softly, “They just made
the decision recently.It’ll only take three or four days.We can go out when I
get back.”
Hearing this, Paula had to say reluctantly, “Okay, then we’ll wait until you get
back.”
After hanging up the phone, Paula turned to the man standing beside her and
curled her lip, saying, “You hear that? She doesn’t have time, so you can’t
blame me!”
Paul curved his lips in a faint smile when he heard her words, and dermapen
sow +10 said unhurriedly, “It’s okay.Let’s wait until she comes back.”
Paula finally couldn’t stand it anymore.
She raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder.
“Hey, Paul, I didn’t know you could be such a wimp.”
Usually, he was decisive and straightforward at work and in life, but when it
came to Lucia, he was like a different man.
He even asked his sister for help when he wanted to ask Lucia out! Paul did
not get angry at her words.
He curled his lips and kept silent without replying.
He had his considerations, preferring to make slower progress than to hurt
Lucia.
From what happened between her and August last time, he could see that
she had been hurt, so he didn’t want to scare her by being too forward.
He believed that it would be best for their relationship to develop slowly and
to let nature take its course.
