Chapter 285 His Tie Was Crooked

He sounded so cold.

Lucia froze, and she looked at August speechlessly.

Seeing her slightly surprised face, August smiled and said, "A hypocritical person is most terrifying.Keep it in mind."

With that, he walked around her to the door.

Lucia was stunned for a moment, somehow feeling numb.She felt that August was different from usual, and she somehow felt sorry for him...

Lucia raised her head and saw that he was about to push the door open and walked out.

She suddenly thought of something and said, "Wait!"

She hurriedly chased after him and unconsciously grabbed his arm.

August looked back at her and raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong?"

Lucia took a deep breath and looked up at his chest, "Your tie..."

She had found just now that his tie was crooked.

After she reminded him, August realized that he had indeed pulled his tie just now when he was irritable, and he forgot to put it back.He paused and didn't say anything.He raised his eyes to look at Lucia with a faint smile in his eyes.

Under his gaze, Lucia blushed.

Seeing that it was getting late, she had to grit her teeth, stepped forward, and carefully straightened his tie.

August remained motionless, looking down at her.It seemed that because of her approach, he smelt a faint fragrance on her.He looked at her serious face and red lips, and his heart tightened.

Then, his eyes moved down.

When he glanced at her neckline, his eyes suddenly darkened a little. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

It seemed that the neckline of her suit did not fit well.

From this angle, he could see some of her breasts and it was dazzling.

He swallowed, and a dark light flashed across his eyes.

He hadn't seen her for a few days and she dared to dress like this at work? August frowned in dissatisfaction.

Just as Lucia inadvertently tugged at the tie while she was helping him tie it, his heart was pounding.

The next second, he stretched out his hand and pressed her against the door.

Lucia’s hand trembled, and she almost fell into a panic.

Fortunately, the tie in her hand became a supporting point.

When she pulled at it, he pressed down.

Bang! Their heads bumped into each other.

Lucia groaned softly in pain, and August frowned.

Lucia opened her eyes and looked at him in a panic, "President Adams..."

August's face was a little gloomy, and he seemed a little angry.He didn't say a word.He just stretched out his hand, smoothed the folds of her shirt with his slender fingers, and specifically lifted it a little to cover her chest.

Then, he said with a cold face, "Change your clothes another day."

Lucia's face flushed.

She nodded slightly, and immediately continued adjusting his tie, "I'll help fix your tie."

She quickened her pace.

When his tie was re-tied and straightened, Lucia smoothed the folds on his chest, quickly let go, and stepped aside, "It's done, President Adams.You can go to the meeting."

The emotions in August's eyes were complicated.

He gave her a deep look, opened the door, and walked out without saying anything.

As soon as he opened the door, he looked up and saw Bishop who was pushed over by Bob not far away.

Suddenly, his eyes darkened.

Bishop, who was sitting in a wheelchair, smiled and said first, "August, why don't you go to the meeting? We have all been waiting for you for nearly fifteen minutes."

August sneered when he heard his words, "Vice President Adams, since it's inconvenient for you, you shouldn't have come to invite me in person.I'll come over after I'm done with the work at hand."

With that, he glanced coldly at Bishop, took a step to bypass him, and walked directly toward the conference room.

Lucia went to the door, just in time to see Bishop's face darkening and his eyes turning cold.

But soon, he turned his head and saw her at the door.

He turned to her and nodded slightly with a smile, "Lucia."

Lucia took a deep breath, smiled at him, and watched him leave.

After Bob and Bishop left, Lucia secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe that Bishop had such a cold and chilling expression.She didn't know what grudges there were between August and Bishop.

But just based on the look in Bishop's eyes just now, she secretly felt that he was not so simple.It seemed what she had heard in the conference room just now was right.

A great man cannot brook a rival.

There probably would be much more conflicts between them in the future.

In this meeting, August did not ask his secretary or assistant to accompany him.She stayed outside the conference room and waited for more than an hour until the meeting was over.

When the people come out, she saw that all of them looked unhappy.She guessed that this meeting was not going well.

Soon, Bishop and Bob came out.

Both of them looked cold and hurried away.

After a while, August came out with Burton.

August raised his eyes, glanced over Lucia, and raised his chin slightly at her, "Come with me."

Lucia was slightly startled.She took a deep breath and walked over.

After walking into the President's Office, she closed the door as requested by August.

Then she mustered the courage to look up at him and asked "President Adams, what can I do for you?"

She was only allowed to follow him, and even Burton stayed outside.He looked so serious and it was a bit scary.

"The leak of the proposal has a big impact on the company.The top management has been asking me to give them an explanation.You know, in this case, you are the most suspicious, so..."

Lucia's heart sank and she looked up at him.

Was he going to fire her? August blinked and said lightly, "I'm going to give you a task.If you complete it, you can prove yourself."

Hearing this, Lucia secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "What task?"

August went straight to the point, "The redeur fashion brand under the company has just changed a designer recently and started a new collection.It needs a brand spokesperson.At present, the company has decided on a star candidate.You go and deal with him."

Lucia was a little nervous, "The candidate...who is it?"

"Jonathan Black"

Lucia was not familiar with this name, but she was not unfamiliar with it.

She often saw his portrait on the large billboards of subway and bus stations, and also knew that he was one of the most popular male stars in the entertainment circle.He was well-known for his handsome face and his beautiful voice.

Lucia gasped, feeling less confident.

Suddenly, August asked, "Are you confident?"She came to her senses and was slightly startled when she met August's bright and deep eyes.

After a moment, she reacted, gritted her teeth, and said, "I'm willing to give it a try."

August blinked and said, "If you need anything, just ask Burton, and I will help you as much as possible."

"No, I want to try it myself."

Lucia refused without thinking, which surprised August.He felt amused and smiled, "Why? Are you so confident?"

Lucia shook her head and said solemnly, "I don't want to betray your trust."

From what August had said, she guessed that someone must have said something about her at the meeting just now, suspecting that she was the one who leaked the proposal.She was given a second chance instead of being punished probably because August had fought her.

In other words, no matter what others thought, at least he still trusted her.
