Carter didn’t close the door, so her stinging rebuke was heard by everyone in the office, even someone
curious pretended to pass by the door to observe the situation inside.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Seeing Lucia lowering her head without any retort and apologizing sincerely, Carter drank a mouthful of
water and said coldly, "Go back to write a review."
"Okay."
"Get out."
Lucia stood up, took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, looked at Carter and spoke, "Carter, I
would like to apply for overtime for fifteen days this month."
Carter frowned slightly, and a few seconds later asked with some surprise, "Fifteen days?"
Lion Group did not advocate excessive overtime, nor forced any employee to work overtime, and each
employee could only work overtime no more than fifteen days a month, of course, overtime allowance
was also available which was considered relatively high in the industry.
Lucia nodded and said in an affirmative tone, "Yes, fifteen days, I want to give myself a chance to
reflect and shift my focus to work."
Carter saw her attitude, sighed softly and asked, "Are you sure you want fifteen days of overtime?"
Lucia nodded seriously.
Originally she had already thought about working overtime or finding a part-time job to earn more
money.
Carter swept her a glance, took out the overtime application in the drawer, and gave her a certificate for
fifteen days of overtime work.
Lucia bowed to Carter for her approval before turning around and leaving the office.
Outside the Supervisor's Office, Lisa was standing there waiting to see Lucia's downcast expression
when she came out, but to her surprise, she came out looking radiant.
She swept Lucia several times and couldn't understand why she was so energetic after being scolded.
As Lucia walked through the office area, Emma suddenly went over and followed her, lowering her
voice and asking with concem, "Lucia, are you okay?"
Lucia smiled at her, "It's okay."
Emma approached and reminded, "Lucia, in fact, Carter didn’t know you left early last Friday was
unaware of it, it was Lisa who had snitched on you."
Lucia was slightly stunned by the words and thought of the expression on Lisa's face when she called
her to the office just now.
She finally realized Lisa was waiting to laugh at her.
Emma saw Lucia was silent and didn't say anything, hesitantly calling out, "Lucia?"
Lucia came back to her senses, gripped the overtime approval in her hand, smiled and shook her head,
"I'm fine, go back to work."
In fact, she had to thank Lisa, if it wasn't for her, she wouldn't get this approval so easily.
For the next few days, Lucia worked overtime until nine o'clock at night, and every day when she
returned home, she fall asleep immediately after a quick wash.
Although she was tired, she felt fulfilled thinking that she could earn more money for her father's
surgery.
It was another day of overtime after 9:00 p.m.
After finishing the summary of the forms, Lucia yawned, turned off the computer, and left the office.
After walking to the gate, she found it was raining so heavily outside that there were much fewer
pedestrians on the street than usual.
Without an umbrella, Lucia had to wait for a taxi.
But due to the bad weather, she didn’t see any taxis on the road.
Just then, a black car suddenly drove by and stopped at the bottom of the steps.
In the car, August raised his eyes, and when he saw Lucia standing in the doorway, he frowned slightly
and said ina deep voice, "Why is she here at this time?"
Burton sat in the front row and answered, "She should work overtime, I heard that this month Miss
Mitchell applied for fifteen days of overtime."
"Fifteen days?"
August raised his eyes to look over, finding Lucia was still waiting for a taxi, but her hair was wet from
the rain, sticky on the pale little face, which looked a little pitiful.
He recalled what happened a few days ago, and moved his gaze away with an unhappy face, seeing
Burton get off with an umbrella, he finally said, "Give her a ride later."
Burton immediately responded and went up the steps with his umbrella, first walking into the lobby to
pick up a document from the front desk.
Lucia just saw Burton get down from the car, subconsciously startled, looked at the car for a few
moments, then recognized that it was really August's car! She was afraid that August would see her
embarrassment, so she turned away to hide, but she didn't know, at this moment, August in the car
was staring at her soberly and snorted "Stupid woman."
Burton walked to the gate, looked at Lucia and whispered, "Miss Mitchel, President Adams said he
could give you a ride along with him, do you want to get in?"
Lucia hesitated for a moment but in order to go home earlier, she had to nod, "Thank you for your
help."
Burton smiled and said, "You are welcome."
They walked to the car with an umbrella, but Burton led her directly to the back seat, so Lucia had to
withdraw from the idea of sitting in the front seat and getting into the car.
As expected, August was sitting in the car but he didn't even clap his eyes at her.
Lucia sat rigidly and kept away August as far as possible.
The atmosphere in the car was somehow inexplicably awkward, and after Burton looked up and swept
them a few times, he also unknowingly lightened his breathing and focused on driving.
The car drove past a traffic light intersection, suddenly, Lucia heard August's low voice coming from the
side, "You've been working overtime recently?"
Lucia was slightly stunned, and after making sure he was speaking to herself, she simply replied, "Yes."
Then it returned to be quiet again.
A few seconds later, his voice rang out again, "Are you short of money?"
Lucia unconsciously clenched her hand and tensed up, wondering how did he know she was short of
money?
