Prepared to Attack
She had never seen Lucia caring so much about Paul before.
They two became closer than before because her brother saved Lucia! It seemed that there was still
possible that Lucia became her future sister-in-law! Upon hearing what she said, blushing, Lucia
nudged her and said in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense, Paula ."
Paula showed a smile with an understanding look and then shushed without saying anything else.
Seeing her like that, Lucia wanted to laugh.
And when she was about to make fun of her, a voice suddenly came from the door.
The door of the ward was pushed open by a young nurse, who was followed by August, the tall, cold-
faced man.
Lucia was startled and froze in place.
Paula next to her raised her hand and poked her, "Lucia, he..."
How could that scumbag come here? Before they figured it out, August stepped forward and walked in.
The nurse in the ward just finished the inspection.
After cleaning the tray and telling something to Paul, she turned around, being about to leave.
By then, Paul raised his head and was stunned when he saw the man walking in.
August swept his eyes across the room lightly, and finally fell them on Paul.
He nodded to Paul slightly, "Hello, Mr.Thomas ."
Seeing August, Paul's eyes turned cold, and he politely replied, "Mr.Adams , what's the matter?"
They were not that close.
Obviously, August came over not to visit him.
Without beating around the bush, August got straight to the point, "I want to have a talk with
someone.After that, I’ll leave."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Lucia beside him, meaning so obvious without concealing anything.
Lucia gasped in fear for seconds before she stabilized her mind.
Despite not knowing what August wanted to do, she still looked quite calm, "Mr.Adams , what's the
matter?"
"Come out."
After saying those words, August turned around to leave the ward.
Lucia was startled, and before she could react, Paula next to her said dissatisfiedly, "How rude! Lucia, I
think you should not go."
Lucia took a deep breath and gritted her teeth before she said softly, "I'll go out for a while, and be back
soon."
After that, she gave Paula a reassuring smile and walked out.
Since August came here to find, there must be something important.
After walking out of the ward, she saw a tall figure standing not far away and stepped forward,
"Mr.Adams, what's the matter?"
August turned his head and looked at Lucia, his eyes darkened, and a sarcastic smile appearing on his
lips, "You came to the hospital directly after work.You really care about Paul."
The blatant sarcasm in his words made Lucia frown uncomfortably.
She neither admitted nor denied his words, "What's the matter?"
After frowning for seconds, August finally regained his composure and said, "Did anything unexpected
happen the day you went to deliver the plan?"
Unexpected? At that moment, a face crossed Lucia's mind, and she was suddenly a little nervous.
After hesitating for a moment, she opened her mouth and said lightly, "No."
Upon hearing this, August seemed to be a little down, and he asked again, "Really?"
Lucia took a deep breath and said in a firm tone, "No."
She pretended to be calm, but some panic flashed across her eyes.
Speaking of something unexpected, it could only be Jeanne.
But Jeanne, August's girlfriend, couldn't have done something to betray him.
If she told him the truth, it would not help to solve the problem.
What's worse, it might cause trouble to Jeanne and August.
So after considering for a little, she thought it was better for her to deny it from the beginning.
Besides, she owed Jeanne a favor.
August looked at her while fixing his eyes on her, as if to see through her.
At the end, he withdrew his gaze, "Well, I see."
After that, he turned around and walked away.
Burton, who was on the side, quickly followed.
Seeing both of them leaving, Lucia let out a sigh of relief and turned back to the ward, while August got
on the elevator with a gloomy expression .
Burton couldn't help asking, "Mr.Adams, it is clear in the surveillance that Ms.Kelly also got into
Ms.Mitchell 's car.They left together.Why didn't Ms.Mitchell tell you that?"
It was normal for people to tell everything fishy in order to prove that they were innocent.But as for
Lucia, she didn’t say anything about it.
What's more, she chose to conceal it.
August frowned, looking a little serious.
The reason why he went to investigate these was to help her, but he hadn't expected her not to
cooperate at all.
"Forget it.It's her own business."
After saying those words, August pursed his lips tightly, not wanting to say anything more about Lucia .
It was a heavy burden for to the Lion group that the plan was leaked.
What's worse, another incident happened the next morning, which added fuel on the fire.
Early in the morning, the scandal about August and a female star named Adeline was spreading
everywhere.
The front pages of several major media in Austos City were all about this news, which said that the
female star's underground romance was exposed and her mysterious boyfriend was the president of
the Lion group.
A photo of them two people was posted, where the star supported the man out of the car and walked
into the hotel together, looking very intimate.
The two people could be vaguely identified in the unclear photos, and even the media had found other
photos of they two walking together, from which it could be known when they started their relationship.
This event was a sensation not only for the showbiz but also or the business circle of Austin City.
Adeline was one of the hottest actresses with many good resources.
It was said online that she had a sugar daddy who was exposed to be August Adams, a famous rich
bachelor in the business world.
The news that they were together would definitely spark a discussion online.
In the President's Office, the secretaries were very busy.
"Mr.Adam, the stock has been falling."
Burton, with his eyebrows frowned, showed the laptop in his hand to August.
The latter waved his hand, stood up and walked to the window, keeping silent.
From the moment he read the news, he had already guessed it.
Things happened one after another, and it was obvious that the foe was prepared.
And after so many thing happened, it was impossible for stocks not to fall.
Burton frowned and asked worriedly, "Mr.Adams, what should we do now?"
August said in a cold voice, "The public view can't be controlled for a while, let the PR department try to
deal with it.That's all what we can do."
"Is it necessary to hold a press conference to clarify? You are not in that relationship with Adeline as
the rumor said.And Ms.Kelly's..."
After pondering for a moment, August ordered coldly, "Send an official announcement, but it might not
be of much use.And tell Adeline to ask her studio to issue an announcement as well."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Immediately after that, the door was pushed open, and Lucia came in a somewhat anxious voice,
"Mr.Adams, the shareholders have requested a meeting."
Hearing that, August raised his brows, but did not speak.
What frightened him most wasn’t the public opinion on the Internet, but those tricky executives in the
company who were hard to deal with.
They, like a time bomb, might pull him down from the position of president at any time!
