At this time, even if she didn’t want to drink with the client, she still had to agree to it.
A sneer swept under Ted’s eyes, "Really?"
Lucia plucked up the hope so."
At this moment, a sudden sound of footsteps came, followed by a cold voice, "Mr.Stebbing, what are
you doing here?"
Hearing August’s voice, Lucia subconsciously got a little nervous, and when she looked up, she saw
him striding toward her.
August gave Lucia a faint look, and without any pause looked at Ted.
Ted’s eyes darkened and he answered with a cold smile, ’This assistant sent by the send someone
else over."
Ted laughed, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his more, this little girl looks pretty smart, so I
won’t bother you."
August’s eyes not go to your office.
Would you like to come to my office for a cup of tea?"
August said lightly and looked at him coldly, "I have things to do, so I won’t have tea."
on the surface, but she could feel the secret rivalry under their words.
While she was lost in thought, August suddenly turned his head and instructed her, "You have nothing
to do here and go back to your work."
At the word, Lucia was relieved and hurriedly said, "Yes."
It was clear to her that August was saying this to take the heat off her.
She breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave at a fast pace.
Just a few steps, she felt a chill in her back, but also did not dare to look back.
Although she was not sure what role this Mr.Stebbing played, it seemed that there was something
between him and August.
And he must have some purpose for being transferred back from the branch at this time.

only a week, and it would be over in a flash.
Thinking of that, she felt a lot more relaxed.
In the afternoon, before she got off work, she received a message from August, "Get off work early
today and come back to had been very relaxed, suddenly felt a little heavy.
When she agreed to August’s request last night, she didn’t think much about it.
Now when she really had to go back to the old house with him, she felt a little burdened.
They were a legitimate couple Scratching her head, Lucia didn’t know what to do for a while.
Emma, who came to deliver the documents, was curious and surprised, "Lucia, what’s wrong with you?
If you keep scratching your head like this, you’ll go bald!"
Hearing what she said, Lucia looked down and saw several fallen hairs on the desk.
She was taken aback, hurriedly stroked her hair, and gathered her things in a panic, "Emma, I have
something to do.
Cover for me and I’ll go first."
At her words, Emma blinked and asked nosily, "Are you going on a date?"
Lucia pushed so upset.
Just then, the phone dinged.
Lucia opened the phone and saw a message from Paul, "Are you coming to dinner with me after look
at the screen and smiled crookedly, ’And you say it’s not a date? It was over Lucia’s head.
August told her to go home to visit Grandma, and Paul asked her to dinner.
What was she going to do? Without time to explain to Emma, she carried her bag and headed out,
"Emma, I’ll talk to you some other time.
It’s too late now and I’ll go the elevator and took it to the lobby.
She couldn’t help but be a little nervous.
Paul this time.
If she went out and bumped into August and Paul, it would be awkward.
When she reached the entrance of the company, she first looked around.
She was relieved to see that Paul was not there and then walked quickly towards the Maybach at the
bottom of the steps.
When she was about to reach the door of the car, she looked around again, then quickly pulled open
the door and got into signed a long breath of relief.
August, who was sitting on the sidelines, took in the woman’s movements and expressions, and his
eyes darkened.
"Being a thief? "Huh?"
Lucia snapped in response, "No...
no."
August turned his head and stared fixedly at her with his cold eyes as if he must ask for an answer,
"Then what are you doing?"
With being watched by him like this, Lucia’s back straight sweaty.
She gritted her teeth and stammered, ’I am afraid of being seen by others..."
In addition to Paul, Lucia also did not want to be seen by her colleagues in the company that she got
into August’s car because that would also lead to a lot of gossips.
When he heard what she said, August’s face turned a few worse and somber.
So, she wanted to get rid of him that much.
Holding back the anger, August turned his head, directly started the car, and stepped on the gas pedal.
Looking at the cold-faced man next to her, Lucia felt that the atmosphere inside the car was so cold
that it could freeze her up.
She opened her mouth and didn’t know what to say when the phone in her hand suddenly rang.
name bouncing on the screen.
It was Paul! a deep breath and just made up her mind to hang up the phone when August’s cold voice
trembling, "I’ll answer..."
At this time, it would seem abnormal if she didn’t answer the phone.
Besides, she and August are now divorced.
It’s not unusual for her to have other male friends around.
Nith this in mind, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her phone, and pressed the answer button.
Hello?"
Paul’s gentle voice came over there, "Lucia, are you busy?"
No...
no."
The male voice coming from the other end of the phone seemed to carry a few laughs, soft and gentle,
took a deep breath and said softly, ’Tonight...
probably not okay and I have something to do."
Hearing this, Paula on the other end of the line paused for a moment and then spoke again, "That’s
okay.
We can have dinner some other time."
Lucia said softly, "Sorry about that."
"It’s okay and there’s still time."
Paul’s magnetic voice came over the phone, and Lucia froze, feeling as if he had said this in her ear.
Her ears suddenly became red.
After taking a deep breath, Lucia stammered out two sentences and immediately hung up the phone.
Just then, August next to her suddenly spoke up and asked in a cold voice, "Who is it?"
