She smiled at Emma and said,"
Okay, let's go."
On the way to the staff canteen, Emma babbled on and on about all kinds of gossip in the company.
Lucia was not interested, but she didn’t want to be the wet blanket, so she said yes now and then to
reply to her.
"Lucia, do you notice messages in the chat group unconnected with the intranet? It is said President
Adams’ girlfriend is here today."
Lucia was mind-wandering.
On hearing "President Adams", she suddenly snapped out of it and asked unconsciously, "What did
you say?"
Emma's eyes lighten up and repeated it excitedly,"
I said President Adams’ girlfriend is in our company now and I heard she is a gorgeous girl."
Lucia took a deep breath and she was not certain who the girl was.
His girlfriend, maybe it was Jeanne.
Though August maybe also dated other women, Jeanne should be the most special and precious one
for him, otherwise, he wouldn't have married her in order to get a suitable kidney for Jeanne.
Gritting her teeth, Lucia tried to throw this thought out of the window for she didn’t want to overthink, so
she pulled Emma and said, "Emma, let's hurry up.
I am hungry."
Last night she was determined to keep her distance from August, so her mind shouldn't be full of these
things about him.
However, things always went against her wishes.
The more you didn’t want to think about it, the further the reality went that way.
When Lucia and Emma just went out of the staff canteen, they saw several people heading toward
them, and the ones in front were a charming woman and a handsome man, who looked like a beautiful
view, attracting all the eyes.
They seemed an ideal couple.
Yes, they were August and Jeanne.
The meek girl by August’s side, had a warm smile and bright eyes, while he patiently listened to her
with the unusual gentle look.
What a pleasant picture! It was a pity that Lucia and Emma walked toward them and the evitable
meeting destroyed the perfect scene.
It was so embarrassing.
Lucia looked down and walked quietly and quickly, hoping she could become an invisible person and
completely neglected by them.
Suddenly, Emma by her side poked her with the arm and said ina low and excited voice, "Lucia, look."
Lucia looked up unconsciously seeing August and Jeanne stand there, not far away.
With her tender and white hands, Jeanne was adjusting August's bow tie on his chest, while the man
lovingly looked at her with a smile.
Seeing the scene, Lucia pressed her lips involuntarily with sorrow and jealousy.
Emma couldn't help but thrill, "What a sweet couple!"
At this time, Lucia felt a little bitter.
August always wore a serious and indifferent face.
He seldom mellowed a little, let alone have a smile, moreover, he never treated her gently and lovingly.
It was true what they said, the love for a person couldn't be hidden, for it would let out from the eyes.
Lucia recovered and looked at Emma by her side, saying, "Let's go."
Emma nodded and they stepped forwards together.
While August turned around and saw Lucia, his eyes changed a little, but he kept a cold face as usual,
then walked forward with Jeanne.
Jeanne held his arm intimately and smiled,"
August, I suddenly associate with the scene you took me to your school dining room when you were in
college..."
Coincidently, Lucia pulled Emma past them overhearing these words, and a touch of sadness struck
her.
It was unexpected that August and Jeanne dated as early as in college...
When they almost passed "the couple", unexpectedly, a lovely female voice called her,"
Ms.
Mitchell."
Lucia froze, then took an unconscious look over there and saw Jeanne look at her with a smile.
Lucia dared not watch the man’s face and forced a smile, nodding to Jeanne,"
Ms.
Kelly."
Jeanne seemed to be very delighted and asked her, "How do you like the soup you had yesterday?"
"Well, tasty.
Thank you."
Lucia gave her a polite answer, "I have cleaned the thermal box and will return it to you later."
Jeanne answered softly with mellow eyes, "OK, I will make a person fetch it"
Then she turned to the man beside her, explaining softly, "August, you don't know that I took the soup
to you yesterday, but you were not in company, so when I met Ms.
Mitchell, your familiar friend in my view, I gave it to her in case the soup is wasted."
August's face clouded over and some elusive emotions appeared in his eyes.
He looked up, glancing at Lucia, and said in an indifferent voice, "I am not familiar with her"
His words were so cold that they seemed to cut a large gap between them immediately.
On hearing that, Lucia felt a pang of hurt, and the bitter and sad feeling spread in her heart.
Yeah, they were unfamiliar, so unfamiliar that they had sex in the office last night.
Jeanne glimpsed Lucia's frustrated face with a satisfactory smile, and said softly, "Jasper, go to fetch
the meal box with Ms.
Mitchell."
Then August beside her held her shoulders and said gently, "Let's go."
Lucia stood there, frozen for a moment, and finally pulled herself together.
When she looked up again, August and Jeanne walked away.
Emma by her side couldn't help but cry excitedly, "Lucia, I don’t expect you to know President Adams’
girlfriend and you are familiar with President Adams?"
Lucia was in no mood to answer Emma's yapping for what August just said was going around and
around in her head.
He said they were not familiar.
He was not familiar with her.
With pressed lips, Lucia answered Emma,"
Emma, I will tell you later."
Then she turned to Jeanne's follower and said softly, "The meal box is in my office, let's go to fetch it."
On the way, her heart seemed to be clouded over.
After the man left with the meal box, she sat alone on the chair, depressed.
Though she was determined to keep her distance from August, when hearing he said so, she didn’t
know why she still minded it and felt so bad, Let it go.
Lucia sighed, pulled herself together, and began to translate the Japanese contract from Paul.
It was the midday break, so she could do her private things.
After finishing one of them, Lucia checked twice, making sure there was no mistake, and sent the
electronic edition to Paul.
In no time, she got Paul's reply, "Well done.
I know I can count on you."
The simple words made Lucia feel better immediately, and the warmth in her heart came there.
Holding her phone, she suddenly thought that maybe Paul was her type for he was thoughtful and
always considered in her shoes.
When she was lost in thought, suddenly there came a knocking at the door and a colleague entered,
"Lucia, Carter lets you go to her office."
Lucia woke up and hurried to answer, "I am going."
Thinking of Carter criticizing her in the office last time, Lucia was afraid.
This time, wouldn't she scold her for something?
