Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 800

Chapter 800 She Gave Her Money

Lucia tried to persuade Jerrod and patiently listened to her thoughts before she put several hundred-dollar bills into Jerrod's hand when Jerrod calmed down completely, "I can't comment on your family's affairs, but you just gave all the money to your mother. I'm afraid you'll be hungry next. So just take it."

Jerrod tightly squeezed the money in her hand and looked at Lucia hesitantly. She couldn't help bursting into tears.

"Mom, it's getting late. Let's go back home.' Timothy reminded at the right time, and his eyes fell on Jerrod.

As soon as Lucia and the two children left the coffee shop, he went back to the coffee shop on the pretext of going to the bathroom. As expected, Jerrod was still sitting there.

The childish innocence faded from his face, and he sat directly opposite Jerrod, 'Auntie, you're much smarter than I thought."

Jerrod's eyes were still red and swollen, but her tone became much colder, "I kidnapped you and your sister back then. How dare you come back to see me alone?"

"If you wanted to do something to hurt me, why did you let me go?" Timothy showed a look of indifference, and pushed a handwritten card in front of her, "I know you need a lot of money, and maybe I can help you. It's more than your employer offers. You can contact me after you think about it."

Looking at the cute-looking boy in front of her, Jerrod felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

After returning to the Adams villa, Lucia placed the packaged clay sculpture on the table in the study with a warm smile on her face. Then she went downstairs briskly just in time to meet August head-on.

She stopped and suddenly froze. August raised her hand towards her, and she subconsciously dodged backward with her eyes full of alertness.

August's cool fingertips had already touched her forehead, and he lightly wiped off a piece of dried soil and waved it before her eyes, "Did you take Timothy and Janet to dig mud?"

"No." She lowered her head to avoid his gaze, and replied weakly, "I just took them to do handicrafts. It's none of your business."

There was still hostility in her voice. Obviously, she did not intend to reconcile with him.

The light in August's eyes dimmed. He pursed his lips with a subtle touch of displeasure and looked even more indifferent. He didn't continue this topic. He just went upstairs and brushed past her Lucia pouted, secretly regretting what she had said just now. Judging from August's look just now, she believed he probably wanted to reconcile with her. But she was so stubborn that she made the situation worse.

Timothy and Janet enjoyed the dinner because Lucia and August didn't quarrel any more. Although there was a feeling of respect for each other between them, it was better than the tensions they had the day before anyway.

Just after dinner, there was a knock on the door of the Adams villa.

A sexy woman in a red dress walked in. Her perfume wasn't pungent in the room, but it still made Lucia feel nauseous.

Currer looked at her provocatively, and said sweetly, "Lucia, I'm sorry to bother you so late, but I have a very important document to hand over to August. I really can't wait until tomorrow."

Lucia suppressed the jealousy in her heart, played with the porcelain cup in her hand, and asked, "It seems that Cloud Technology is not going to bid for the land in Southum."

The two companies were still in a state of hostility. They were bidding for the development and planning rights of a tourist area land at the same time, but Currer said that she had documents to deliver.

Before Currer could speak, she said sarcastically again, 'August can make you willingly turn your back on your boss for the Lion Group. I think I should thank you on behalf of all the employees of the Lion Group."

Not only did Lucia not intend to get angry, but she also put on the airs of August's wife and laughed at Currer.

'My personal affairs have nothing to do with Cloud Technology. Don't be so rude." Currer's face changed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, and she didn't sound as arrogant as before.

The atmosphere in the living room was a bit cold. Lucia seemed to be in the leading position in this war without gunpowder, provided that August hadn't spoken.

He didn't seem to reject Currer's visit. Although there was no trace of emotion in his tone, it was not as harsh as before.

"If there is anything, let's discuss it in the living room." He took the lead and left the dining room.

Currer's face was full of complacency and she gave Lucia a provocative look before she followed August away.

Her long dress was hot, revealing her white back, which deeply annoyed Lucia.

The door of the living room was locked. Currer put the document that Edmund had prepared on the desk and said, "The matter of the anonymous emails is getting somewhere. I don't dare to wait too long, so I can only bring them here for you to see at this time."

August took the document, glanced at it, and threw it aside.

Although it was full of useless and discarded information, he still slowed down his voice and said softly, "Thank you."

When Currer heard his words, she blushed immediately. She took this opportunity to lean on August's shoulder and said softly, "You used to take care of me in the organization. Now I'm very happy that I can do this for you."
