Chapter 295 August Would Only Choose Jeanne

On the way from the Secretary's Office to the President's Office, Lucia had already adjusted her mood and when she reached the door, she knocked calmly and pushed the door in.

August was reading a document.

When he heard footsteps, he signed his name on the end of the document sharply before looking up at Lucia.She asked, "President Adams, what can I do for you?"

August said in a businesslike manner, "Mary is back today, so you can go back to the Administration Department.But you should continue to follow up on the Jonathan endorsement and try to make a deal on this project as soon as possible.There will be a bonus if this work is done well."

It was just as she thought.

Lucia’s hand unconsciously squeezed the corner of her clothes and replied in a soft voice, "Okay."

She gritted her teeth and pretended to look calmly at August, with mixed feelings.

Ever since she heard Melinda talk about Mary’s return today, she had guessed what was going on.

When Jeanne ran into her and August having dinner together in the office yesterday while working late, it occurred to her that there was no way August could keep her in the President's Office.

Because Jeanne was his soon-to-be-engaged fiancée, he had to give her an explanation as well as make her feel at ease.

Between Jeanne and her, August would only choose Jeanne.

Lucia took a deep breath and gathered her courage when August looked up, "President Adams, my dad is having a checkup this weekend and I want to stay with him, so I can’t go to your engagement ceremony..."

She froze and met August's dark eyes with some guilt in her heart.

Bill did have to have a checkup over the weekend to prepare for the surgery, but with Mrs.Mitchell with him, she was fine not going.She said this because she didn’t want to go to August and Jeanne’s engagement ceremony at all.

When she and August got their marriage license, he couldn't even give her a wedding, and now that he and Jeanne are only engaged, he's doing it in a big way, which made her feel very uncomfortable.So, she might as well just find an excuse not to go.
