Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 39

Chapter 039

Lucia came back to her office in a low mood. And her door was pushed open shortly after she sat down in her

seat.

Lisa stood at the door, looking at Lucia and asking, “How is it going? Is it all ready?”

Lucia was not in the mood and answered casually. “Yes.”

Lisa was a little surprised. “Mr. Adams is here?”

“Yes.”

Looking at Lucia, who said nothing more than the word “Yes”, Lisa spoke up discontentedly, “What do you mean by that? How is your work going exactly?”

Lucia took a deep breath and came back to her senses before she turned to Lisa and said word by word, ”I did

everything I needed to do to receive Mr. Nordhaus and have him in the reception room. And Mr. Adams is here, but I don’t know how their talk went.”

Lisa was obviously a bit dissatisfied when she heard that, but she couldn’t find anything wrong with it She had long heard rumors that Mr. Nordhaus was a womanizer and a bully. That was why she had deliberately given the most difficult job of receiving him to Lucia. She just wanted to see Lucia make a fool of herself, but

she hadn’t expected that things wouldn’t turn out as she had hoped,

The topic was closed, so she had to move on. “Is the attendance report ready?

I need it already.”

Lucia took a deep breath and answered truthfully, “You just told me to do it this morning, and I had another job this afternoon, so I didn’t have time to do it yet.”

Hearing that, Lisa said coldly, “Finish it as soon as you can.”

With that, she turned around straight away and stepped out of the room.

The door was closed with a bang. Lucia sat at her desk, without feeling any better.

Once she thought of August, she wilted like a piece of limp lettuce. When she finally got home from work, Lucia tried to ask Turner for advice on how to make August stop being

angry, only to find out that August wouldn’t be coming home at night. She thought it was just one night, but to her surprise, August did not come home for three nights in a row.

It seemed that this time, he was seriously angry with her.

The three days passed quickly. She was so busy with her work at the department that she barely sow Augusta few times. Even when she did, she just ran into him occasionally in the company and took a quick look at him.

Lucia tried many times to find an opportunity. Finally, when the department had a document to hand over to the President’s Office, she volunteered to deliver it.

She didn’t want anything more than to meet August and have a few words with him. With the document in her hand, Lucia headed there with excitement. Just as she arrived at the door of the

President’s Office, she saw Irene

So, Irene had already been discharged from the hospital,

They exchanged a glance. Then, Lucia looked away and went on toward Au­gust’s office,

“Wait a minute”

Irene suddenly stopped Lucia the moment Lucia brushed past her. Lucia looked back at Irene. “What’s up?”

Seeing Irene now, she kept her normal mind, without speculating or thinking too much about it.

It seemed that Irene was still a bit afraid of Lucia in her heart. She sounded a little hesitant, but her voice was

somewhat cold at the same time. “What are you doing there?”

Chapter 039 Lucia raised the document in her hand. “Delivering the document.”

Irene held out her hand. “Give it to me. I’ll deliver it.”

Lucia pulled back her hand with the document and said lightly, “I have some­thing to report, so I’d better do it myself.”

With that, she didn’t wait for Irene to say anything else and walked straight forward.

Irene’s face instantly darkened. She turned around to stare at Lucia from behind as she gritted her teeth.

One day, sooner or later, she would pay Lucia back for what she had suffered before!

When she got to August’s office, Lucia raised her hand to knock on the door. When she heard a voice inside, she pushed the door open and went in.

Inside the office, she saw August flipping through papers at his desk.

She took a deep breath. “Mr. Adams, here is the report you wanted from the Administration Department.”

Hearing her voice, August stopped to look up at her. “Well, just put it on the desk.” “Okay.” Lucia slowly put the document on the desk. After that, she still stood in the same place and had no intention to leave.

August could see that the woman was trying to say something and asked, “What else?”

In the past few days, he had purposely not gone home to keep his distance and get estranged from her. Besides,

it wasn’t a good idea for him to go back at this point...

Lucia twisted her hands together and gathered the courage to ask, “Tonight, are you coming home?”

“Is there something going on at home?”

Lucia bit her lip. “No.”

August casually put the papers in his hand aside. “We’ll see then.”

With that, he stood up, walked to the coat rack, and picked up his coat.
