Chapter 089

The expected slap didn’t land on her face, but a low, powerful voice came to her ears.

"Why? A slap isn’t enough?"

Lucia snapped her eyes open and saw a tall figure.

August stood in front of her with his strong arm raised, grabbing the woman’s wrist.

The woman looked stunned.

She I have to do!"

August was indifferent and asked in a cold voice, "Do you think it’s right for you to make such a scene during working hours, Mrs.Stebbing?"

Mrs.Stebbing’s face turned cold.

She snorted and tried to argue, but August stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "You should have asked Mr.Stebbing first when something like this happened, shouldn’t eyes and looked at Lucia coldly.

"The pictures are enough to prove it!"

August’s eyes grew cold.

"But what if you have gotten it all wrong? What are you going to do about the slap just now?"

"..."´ Mrs.Stebbing’s face instantly went pale.

Seeing that she couldn’t say anything, August continued in a cold voice, "I will investigate it.

If it’s true, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, Mrs.Stebbing.

But if it isn’t, you must be prepared then and give her an answer.’ August had already given her enough respect by saying this in front of so many people without accusing her.

Mrs.Stebbing knew it would be even worse if she continued to make trouble, so she rolled her eyes resentfully and agreed.

Since you have said that, Mr.Adams, I can’t say anything else."

"However..."

She glanced at Lucia.

Her expression changed and her voice became colder.

"If it’s true and you fail to do what you have said, Mr.Adams, don’t blame me for being merciless!"

After that, she turned around with a snort and walked away through the crowd.´ Lucia stood behind August.
