Chapter302 False Friendship

Lucia didn't wake up from her thought of August's facial expression until Jamie talked to her.She was still wondering whether she'd done anything to infuriate him, yet failed to figure it out.She thus went out with Jamie as he required.

They were now walking through the passage, one after the other and followed by Jamie's assistant.

Lucia finally expressed her gratitude to Jamie, "Thank you for what you did."

She had to do that because she might have been driven out of Lion Group but for Jamie.

"Come on!"

Jamie raised his eyebrows, and suddenly held her shoulder, joking, "Or how are you going to thank me? By being my girlfriend?"

Knowing he was only joking, Lucia retorted in a jocose tone as well, "For real?"

As something was flickering in Jamie's eyes, there came the footfalls before he could make any response.

Lucia turned to the direction of the footsteps, just to find August standing not far away.

As her heart jolted, she jumped some steps away from Jamie out of reflection, looking rather flustered.

August fixed on them coldly with a noncommittal look.

When Lucia looked up to him again, he had been walking past them, looking straight ahead.

Lucia just felt her heartbeat quicken in sweat, and she wasn't able to brace herself up until she entered the lift.

Having noticed all her reaction, Jamie's smile froze, though he still said in a casual tone, "Or just invite me for dinner if you really want to express your gratitude."

"Sure!"

Lucia replied, though still lost in her thoughts.

Her mood was just shadowed by some inexplicable pressure due to August's seemingly casual glimpse just now.

Having sent Jamie to the gate of the company, she began returning to the Administration Department.

Emma had been waiting for Lucia at the door and her eyes flashed when she finally saw her.

"How is it going, Lucia?"

Emma went up to her.
