Chapter 39 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.

1 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.
