Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 301

Chapter301 We are not to be the Sacrificed Lamb!

"Jamie Nordhaus!"

"Chairman, how come he's here?"

Everyone present was stunned, not only because the comer was the project manager from the rivaling

company which had taken a $700-million worth of business from Lion Group, but he dared to break into the

meeting room in such an ostentatious manner.

Eliot's face darkened the moment he turned round to catch the sight of Jamie. Yet Jamie just per-empted him, "Why can't show up here when this meeting of yours is said to be held for the

sake of me?" At this moment, he became the frivolous Junior Nordhaus again, who was notorious for his

insinuative sneer.

Glancing at Jamie coldly, August ordered Burton, "Since we are having a guest here, could you make a seat for

Junior Nordhaus, Burton?"

Hearing himself being called as "Junior Nordhaus", Jamie put on a grim look. That name had too much to with

his infamous past, when he was hanging around all day resorting to his family. But he had molded into the

project manager of Jevas Group now. Yet August deliberately insisted on calling him by that name, that was

obviously out of mockery.

Casting a quiet look at August, Jamie then turned to Eliot, "Mr. Adams, I came here to make something clear to

you guys." After that, he turned to Lucia with an overt smile. That smile made Lucia much more relieved. She had just sent him the message out of sheer desperation, not really expecting him to show up. And now, with him really standing in the meeting room, she was still quite uncertain whether he would be able to make it clear as he claimed. But she had to take the chance. She thus returned a grin to Jamie, but im nediately perceived a sharp glare from August, which got her agitated again. Eliot had to make the concession despite his displeasure, since the rejection in front of so many people would

only get both sides awkward. "Go ahead, please." said he! "I heard that someone is spreading the rumor of me and Lucia shopping together yesterday, and suspecting

111

she's leaked out the plan to me simply because of our friendship. They even want to fire her unreasonably." "It's not unreasonably, but based on forcesul analysis." a voice rose. "What a forceful analysis!" Jamie snorted to laugh. "Let me show you guys what's called forceful." He motioned his assistant, who'd been waiting at the door, to get in with a laptop. He then articulated, "You are

going to see the surveillance video in the clothing shop where I ran into Lucia. Here is convincing evidence to

prove we didn't make any plan to meet up, but only came across each other out of coincidence." As he made

another signal, his assistant turned the screen to the front and started playing the video to the people in the

meeting room.

As it was shown in the video, Jamie was asking the stall about the location of the dressing room when he

entered the slop. He then knocked at the door of the dressing room and met Lucia unexpectedly. Surprise was

so apparent on both sides, which meant they hadn't planned for any appointment. They even said "it's long

since we met" to each other, and that just indicated they were definitely not that close as the rumor went.

UNOT

A silence fell in the meeting room when everyone had watched the clip. Jamie then put a text on the screen of

his phone and showed it around with a smile. "What's more suspicious is I was actually led to the shop all the

way by a piece of messace. It's obvious that someone was manipulating the so-called appointment, just in

order to take the candid photo of us. I don't mind letting you guys go through it." He then cave his phone to the person next to him. As the phone had been passed through several people, who

only shut their lips after reading it, all the ruys in the room had guessed what it was about.

When almost half of the people had read the text, Jamie Littoreil calmly, "Someone planted an appointment on

Lucia ind me yesterday, even with a candid picture. And then this morning, the mailing system of your

company was lacked to send out that misleading mail, making everyone think Liria the one to give the plan

away. Could you havcatuess why the one behind it is doing all that?" To cover up the crime with a scapegoat, of course.

"If you guys don't trust 11, you could well no lo the clothing: shop for the video yourselves, or just talk to the

staff who was there yesterday." With a deliberate pause, Jamie went on, "Whoever the guy who made the gimmickry is, I will never let slip of him or her! Making Licia the scapegoat is not only sraming her up, but also slandering my working ability. We are not to be the sacrificed lamb! Anyone who still have any question,

please stand up to confront with me. This is the business of mine now." Everyone at the table was embarrassed at his remark, which was actually quite well-grounded, and nor could
