Chapter 027
“Lucia.” Lucia glance at the sound and saw Lisa standing in the middle of the common office area with a file staring at her.
Lucia pretended to be calm and asked, “Sister Lisa, is there something wrong?”
“Yes.” Lisa casually handed the document to a colleague next to her and walked towards her, “There are quite a lot of tasks in the department recently. I urgently need you to help me share the load, but I don’t know the first task’s progress. Has the holiday gift box been confirmed?”
The arrangement of the holiday gift box, was Lucia’s work, but a welfare product for other employees in the company. The colleagues next to Lisa heard Lisa mentioned this matter, they all pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.
Lucia told the truth, ’’Almost there. It has been confirmed. We would cooperate with Tiano company. After
confirming the details, I would sign the contract.”
Lisa originally thought Lucia would have no process. After all, this task was not simple. However, she did not
expect Lucia had succeeded, and the work has nearly been completed.
Lisa was surprised, then she sneered, “Really? Tiano’s boss is not easy to deal with. Our budget is not much, so I wonder if you can give everyone a surprise this year.”
Lucia said softly, “The gift box is a benefit for everyone. I can’t guarantee if it’s a surprise for everyone, but I can be sure that it won’t be worse than last year’s.” The gift box Lucia finally decided included some of the hottest products this year. However, it was just a token of appreciation, and she couldn’t guarantee that everyone would like it.
Lisa sneered and suddenly asked, ”Lucia, why don’t you tell us how you did this all by yourself, so we can all
learn.”
As soon as Lisa said this, someone next to her echoed, “Yes, let us all learn!”
The echoing sound, also mixed with a different voice, “Should we learn she badger people?”
This sentence made the colleagues beside all laughed out loud.
Lucia stood in the original place, and she understood the meaning of their words. They alluded to her pestering August Adams. Hearing this, Lisa restrained herself to laugh. She raised her eyebrows and asked Lucia on purpose, ”Lucia, is it
true?”
Being watched by everyone, Lucia’s cheeks were hot, as if she had been slapped in the face. She bit her lips
tightly, turned around directly, and walked quickly towards the office.
Back in the office, Lucia was in a bad mood, but there was nothing she could do.
Lucia didn’t know who took those photos, nor did she know who reveal it. Even if she tried to delete the photos,
it wouldn’t help. People in her company all knew these photos, so she couldn’t do anything.
Passing one day in a blur, Lucia deliberately left half an hour late when it was time to get off work, to avoid the
rush hour, so as not to be judged by everyone.
Seeing there were fewer people in the company, Lucia packed her things and prepared to get off work.
When Emma saw Lucia, Lucia asked, “Lucia, you’re working overtime too.”
Lucia nodded, “Well, just now I was doing some work that hadn’t have been finished.”
