Submit To The Boss Lucia And August Novel Chapter 38 – August paused as he held the invitation in his hand.
“Yes,”
Seeing how hesitant he was, Lucia realized almost instantly that he was
going to the event, but couldn’t go with her.
After all, their relationship couldn’t be made public yet.
She forced a smile and pretended that she didn’t mind it as she took the
invitation he handed over and said, “I see”
Enter title…
She looked down at the invitation, then raised her head and smiled at him, “I
will be there, and I won’t make trouble for you then.”
After that, she stepped away and went up to the second floor.
August watched the woman from behind as she pretended to be fine.
His brows furrowed involuntarily and he had a strange feeling When her
figure disappeared around the corner of the second floor, August picked up
his phone and sent a message to Burton.
“Go to PW tomorrow and order a ladies’ evening dress for Lucia.”
He was not a good husband to Lucia, so he could only try to make up for it in
other ways.
Time flew by and it was already Saturday.
Lucia woke up without the man at her side.
She wiped her face and hurried downstairs.Turner, where’s August?”
She didn’t find the man after a quick look around.
Turner answered while wiping the table, “Mr.Adams went out early, saying he
has an appointment in the morning.”
“Oh.”
Lucia replied with some disappointment.
The jewelry exhibition was starting in the afternoon.
She had thought that August would be willing to take her with him at the last
minute, even if they had to separate afterward, but she had never expected
him to go out early in the morning.
Turner looked at her like this and asked, “You have an event to attend today,
Madam, don’t you?”
Lucia said wanly, “Yes, a jewelry exhibition.”
“Then have breakfast and let’s get ready early.”
Seeing how excited Turner was, Lucia smiled.
“It doesn’t start until this afternoon.”
And she didn’t have a proper dress for the event, so there was nothing to
prepare.
With Turner urging and persuading her, Lucia finally felt better and got up to
have breakfast, Just at noon, Burton suddenly came over with a big flat box
in his hands, which stood up and almost blocked the upper half of his body
revealing only his legs.
Lucia was watching TV on the couch.
She was startled to see him come in like this.
“What are you…”
What was he doing? Burton put the box on the table and smiled at Lucia.
“Madam, this is a dress Mr.Adams prepared for you?”
Lucia was surprised, “A dress?”
Burton nodded.
“Yes, he told me to order it the other day and chose the style himself.”
Lucia hurriedly got up, feeling a little excited for some reason.
She walked to the table and slowly opened the box.
A gold dress with a bustier and nipped-in waist came into sight.
It was so beautiful and shiny as far as she could see.
Lucia stared at it for quite a while as if in a dream.She turned to Burton and
asked, “It’s for me?”
Burton nodded his head.Having gotten the positive answer, Lucia felt that her heart w
s pounding violently Growing up, she had never worn such a beautiful dress before!
Turner, who came over to look at it couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s so
beautiful, Madar.You’ll look gorgeous in it! Mr.Adams has such a good eye!”
Hearing that, Lucia felt her cheeks burning and froze for quite a while.
Turner encouraged her to go and try it on in her room, and only then did she
head back to her room slowly with the box in her arms in a daze.
During her time with August, she had seen how cold and thoughtful he was.
Although he hadn’t mentioned a word about the jewelry exhibition these days,
he had already had her dress ordered, so how could she not be touched?
Lucia happily changed into her dress, took a deep breath and pulled up the
zipper.
Then, she was somewhat mesmerized when she looked at herself in the
mirror.
She had never thought that she would be so beautiful one day.
After all, she usually wore what she was comfortable with When she came
down in her dress, Turner, who was waiting in the living room, couldn’t help
but compliment her.
Burton, who was also a bit surprised, quickly came to his senses.
He grabbed his phone and took a picture of Lucia when she wasn’t looking,
and sent it to August.
“You’re so beautiful in this dress, Madam.I’ll curl your hair later.You’ll be
absolutely stunning then!”
Lucia’s face was red from Turner’s compliments.
She said shyly, “You’re teasing me, Turner.”
“No, I’m not.I think Mr.Adams knows you best and the size is just right.”
Lucia felt that her cheeks were even hotter when she heard that.
Lucia blushed so much that even her ears turned red.
Only then did Turner laugh and stop teasing her The two of them were
laughing and joking.
In the end, Turner insisted on doing her hair in her room.
Lucia could not resist, so she went to her bedroom with Turner.
In a private room at Austos International, August was a bit distracted as he
sat at the table and listened to the manager beside him talking about the
specifics of a project.
“You’ll find more details in the proposal, Mr.Adams.”
A document was handed in front of him.
August raised his eyes slightly and said in a somewhat lazy manner, “It’s
okay.
Just tell me how long it will take to build a team for this project and the
payback period.”
“Okay.”
The manager from the other party nodded and began to explain in detail.
After an exchange, August had a bit of a headache.
When he casually checked his phone, he saw a WeChat message from
Burton and opened it directly to read it.
It was just a picture.He tapped it to zoom in.
In the picture, Lucia was in a gold silk dress.
Her waist was so slím that it could be easily grasped with one hand.
Her eyes were slightly lowered and the corners of her mouth turned upward
with a little shyness.
Instantly, August held his breath and felt like a fire was burning inside.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the picture, and a layer of sweat
emerged from the palm of his hand holding the phone.
He hadn’t expected that Lucia would have such a stunning moment that he
couldn’t take his eyes off her picture C C F1 That’s about it, Mr.Adams.Have
you got it?”
The manager’s voice came from next to August, which pulled him back to
reality..
He flipped his phone over and put it on the table with its screen downward.
Then, he picked up the red wine at the side and took a sip before saying,
“Yeah, I’ve basically got it all and found nothing wrong, so you can draw up a
contract.”
The manager was relieved to hear that and picked up a glass of wine quickly
to toast him.
He waved his hand and politely refused.
“I have an event to attend this afternoon, so I can’t drink much.”
The manager smiled and stopped trying to toast him.
August didn’t drink much, but for some reason, he felt his stomach burning.
And he couldn’t help but keep thinking about the smile on Lucia’s face, which
got a little bigger and bigger in his mind..
He grabbed a glass of water and drank most of it.
Only then did he feel the fire inside him eased up a lot.
He checked the time and found that he could take a short break before he got
ready for the event.
He was wondering if Lucia would surprise him when he met her at the venue.
