Since She Met Lucian

Chapter 73 Kent And Melissa Were Fired

Amelia stood up to get the door after hearing the knock. It was Sasha who was waiting to be let in. She wore dark makeup with matching red lips, which only made her look more intimidating. Sasha's face immediately changed when she saw that it was Amelia who opened the door. Amelia was about to greet Sasha, but the latter walked past her and went directly to Lucian's desk. She spoke almost seductively, "This is the sales report for this quarter, Lucian. I worked overtime last night to sort out the data. Please have a look."

"We're at the office, Sasha," Lucian replied without raising his head to acknowledge her. He reached out to take the papers from her hands and began flipping through the pages.

"Well... Mr. Lucian." Seeing that her seductive talk wasn't making an effect on Lucian, Sasha dropped the act and spoke formally.

Amelia sneaked back to her desk, careful not to make a noise lest she interrupt their conversation. Once seated, she tried to take a peek at what was happening over at Lucian's desk.

Sasha was wearing a form-fitting blazer paired with a very short skirt, which revealed her shapely figure. The black stockings and red high heels complemented her feminine charms.

"I got this. Thanks," Lucian said curtly, still scanning the document in his hands. He was completely ignoring Sasha.

"Are you free after work, Lucian?" Sasha asked softly. But since there were only three of them in the room, it was impossible for Amelia to not hear everything.

She braced herself while waiting for Lucian's reply. Amelia was afraid that Lucian would say yes, but she tried her best to look engrossed in her work to care.

Lucian raised his head to look at Sasha. Without answering her question, he said coldly, "Ask Kent and Melissa of the Sales Department to come to my office now."

The mention of those names drew Amelia's attention. She remembered Melissa, having ran into her on the stairs the last time. She knew her name because Kent called out to her.

Amelia wondered if they'd done anything wrong for Lucian was asking to see them. Lucian looked rather displeased.

"Okay," Sasha obeyed. She was about to make her way to the door when after a moment's hesitation, she asked, "You do know what day it is today, right, Lucian?"

"I know," Lucian said, scowling.

"Do you need me to keep you company?" Sasha leaned against Lucian's desk, her long legs crossed suggestively.

It seemed to Amelia that the two began to talk in whispers as she could no longer understand what they were saying.

She could only watch as Sasha spoke softly almost directly into Lucian's ear. Without looking at her, Lucian clearly replied, "I'll wait for you in the lobby after work."

Amelia's mouth fell wide open. It was as if her worst fear had been confirmed.

Satisfied with Lucian's answer, Sasha turned around and gave Amelia a smug smile. She then saw herself out of the office, strutting in her stiletto heels.
