Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 206

August said lightly, "In the back."

With that, he turned his head to look at her, and his deep eyes met hers, "What? I'm here to accompany you. Aren't you happy?"

He sounded confident and somewhat ambiguous. She bit her lips and had nothing to say. Did she dare to say anything? Even if she was not happy, she had to swallow it.

When she looked up again, August's gaze passed her and looked behind her. Lucia suddenly remembered that there was another man on her left.

At the right moment, Paul said softly, "Lucia, it's time to start."

Hearing this, she turned her head quickly, smiled apologetically at Paul, stared straight ahead, and tried to calm herself down. It was the first time she had been caught between two men.

Accompanied by a melodious piano sound, the red curtain slowly opened and the lights on both sides of the venue changed. The concert officially started.

The piano solo and the orchestral symphony took turns. After the first few shows, Lucia counted in her heart. The fourth one was Paula's performance, the ensemble of cello and piano.

When Paula appeared stunningly in a red cress, Lucia's eyes lit up and she couldn't help feeling a little excited.

With a smooth piano sound, Paula pulled the strings and caught up with the tone. The two different instrument sounds mixed together and complemented and collided with each other, performing different melodies together.

Lucia looked at Paula in the center of the stage. At this moment, she was less carefree than usual. She was more quiet and mature, but still charming.

On the other side, August stared at the woman with shining eyes beside him, and couldn't help smiling.

She clearly didn't understand any music, yet she was still listening so seriously. It was kind of cute.

His eyes moved down, and he took the time to look her up and down. Today Lucia didn’t look the same as usual. Well... she was somehow feminine.

This thought flashed through August’s mind. The next second, he suddenly reacted and looked up a1 the man on Lucia’s left.

Then he frowned tightly and his heart suddenly sank.

«

Was she dressed like this because of Paul? She knew she was going to the concert with him, so she dressed like this and put on makeup on purpose.

Thinking of this, August couldn't help frowning, feeling rather unhappy. In his impression, even before their divorce, she had never dressed up like this in front of him...

This unpleasant feeling continued from this moment to the end of the concert, and it never dissipated.

After more than one hour of the concert, the audience dispersed in an orderly manner.

Lucia was about to take out her phone to send a message to Paula asking where she was when Paul suddenly leaned over and said softly, "Lucia, Paula messaged me that she is in the lounge, and she asked us to go see her there."

Lucia paused, nodded, and asked, "Do you know where the lounge is?"

Paul smiled. "Yes, I'll take you there."

August heard their conversation and looked at Paul coldly, feeling even gloomier.

He pursed his lips tightly and said, "Lucia, L’ll take you back today."

When Lucia heard this, she turned her head to look at him, and said hesitantly, "No, thanks. Mr. Adams, I have to go see my friend."

Hearing such a blunt address, August tightened his brows and instantly turned cold.

What? Was she trying to draw a line with him so soon?

Before he could speak, Paul smiled at him, and said cooperatively, "Mr. Adams, don't worry, I will take Lucia home safely."

He sounded so provocative.

August narrowed his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes turned cold. A second later, he lowered his eyes to look at Lucia. His tone was not slow but very firm, "Do whatever you need to do. I'll wait for you."

A man knew another man best. Paul looked polite, but no one could tell if he was up to something. He wouldn’t let Lucia go with another man.

Lucia was stunned, thinking that she had heard it wrong. August’s attitude towards her had always been very cold. What was wrong with him today? Was he willing to wait to take her home?

Seeing that August didn't seem like joking, Lucia knew that he wouldn’t change his mind at will, so she had no choice but to turn her head to look at Paul and said,

"Well, let’s go to see Paula first. Well talk about the rest later./

There was a hint of hesitation in Paul's eyes, but he nodded slowly, "Okay."

The people in the hall were almost gone. When Lucia turned her head, she saw that Burton was standing at the door waiting. It turned out he came too.

They walked out of the hall. Paul led the way and walked along the corridor. Lucia followed behind him with August and Burton.

She somehow felt that the atmosphere was weird. She had never expected that they would get together.

Turning to the side along the corridor, Paul suddenly slowed down and waited for Lucia to follow. "The lounge is in front."

She nodded, and was about to follow when she suddenly thought of something, paused, and looked at August beside her, "Why don’t you wait here?"

After all. August was not familiar with Paula, and Paula had always had a problem with him. If she brought him directly into the lounge, it would be too abrupt.

August frowned, and his eyes turned cold, and his face became gloomy.

Afraid that he would not agree, Lucia took a deep breath and said quickly, "HI come out after talking to Paula.”
