Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 246 Lacking A Secretary

Gritting her teeth, Lucia got up, went to her supervisor's office, and saw two women sitting at the desk.

Following a glance at her, Carter said, "Take a seat.We're having a meeting.Where is the document?"

Lucia clenched her fists, bit the bullet, and lied, "I haven't gotten it yet.Melinda was not in the office.I waited for a while.She didn't show up, and I had to come back first."

The other woman, Lisa, couldn't help sneering, "Melinda was not there? I'm afraid she can't recognize you due to your long absence."

Lucia pursed her lips but made no comments.

Carter put on a serious face, looked up at Lisa, and said, "Go and get the file."

Lisa was not happy about it but could not defy her boss.

Following a glance at Lucia, she got up and went out.

As soon as the woman was gone, Carter said, "Don't take it personally.The colleagues are discontent with your long leave.It will be fine in a couple of days."

Cheered up by Carter's comfort, Lucia smiled and said, "Don't worry about it.I'm okay."

In a short while, Lisa came back with a sullen face.

Carter saw her empty hands and asked with a frown, "Where is the document?"

Lisa glanced at Lucia and sulked, "Mr.Adams had the file.According to Melinda, Lucia is required to get it from him "Huh?"

Lucia was surprised.

Apparently, August did that to give her a hard time.

With inquiring eyes, Carter looked over.

Lisa continued to huff, "I don't know why Mr.Adams gave such an order.Did you offend him?"

Offend him? No way! Lucia clasped her fingers, took a deep breath, looked up at her boss, and muttered, "I'm going to get the file."

Calm as ever, Carter slightly lifted her chin.

"Go ahead."
