Chapter 108

“All right, Lucia?"

Paula reached out to pull Lucia up and checked´ anxiously if she was hurt.

Lucia secretly sighed with relief and shook her head.

"Yes, Paula, I’m fine."

If Paula had come any later, something would have happened to Lucia.

Having made sure that Lucia was okay, Paula turned around and shouted coldly´ at the others, "What are you lot doing? Bullying a woman? How dare you!"

The managers and bosses in the room froze at the sight of this situation.

Mr.´ Slinger was the first to react, narrowing his eyes and smiling, "You can’t be serious, Lucia.

We’re just having a drink.

Why do you have to get your friend here? You’re putting your leader, Mr.Stebbing, in an awkward position."

By saying this, he immediately put the blame on Lucia.

Lucia raised her eyes to look at Ted who had a sullen face, clenched her fists and took a deep breath.

"I’m wondering why you have to put me in such an awkward position, Mr.Stebbing.

Do you think it’s right to have your female employee drink with your clients?"

When she said that, Ted’s face became more sullen.

He watched her coldly like a hawk as if trying to see through her.

He coldly Ted actually said he didn’t force her to drink? Did he have to put a knife to her neck to force her? Paula pulled at Lucia’s hand.

"Stop talking to them, Lucia! Let’s go!"
