Chapter 247 A Hard Nut to Crack

Lucia's heart sank.

It was true.

In front of August, she didn't have the right to choose.He paid the expensive surgery fee for Bill, and she owed him a lot of money.

Even her meager salary was from Lion Group.

Beggars can't be choosers.

When frustration was seen in her eyes, August wrinkled his brows, loosened his grip, and said blandly, "You will get the same salary as the general secretary."

"Okay."

Lucia took a deep breath and bit the bullet.

Even if she refused, August had all the ways to make her give in.She'd better swallow her pride and take the offer.

Ensnared, she had to accept the arrangement before there was a way out of the trap.

August turned around, strode to his desk, and concluded indifferently, "Go and pack your things.Burton will take care of the rest."

Lucia took a deep breath, hummed in consent, and felt weak.

On her way back, she saw Emma looking to the left and right at the door.

"Lucia!"

At the sight of her, Emma rushed over and said urgently, "I went to our boss' office to deliver things just now and heard Lisa and Carter talking about you.It was pretty tense.Did anything go wrong?"

Lucia snapped back and finally remembered her task.She had returned empty-handed once again.

What she brought back was not the file but a piece of shocking news.

To the outsiders, her sudden transfer was a promotion.

However, her colleagues in the same department would definitely gossip.She couldn't imagine their comments before her back.Her pale face startled Emma.

"Lucia, what's wrong?"
