Walking to the door of the office, she raised her hand and knocked on the door, pushing the door

to report,” Mr. Adams, Ms. Kelly is here."

The man sat in front of the desk, his face was not very good-looking, he paused for two seconds,

and then raised his chin slightly, "Well, let her in."

When Lucia heard this, she turned around when she saw that Jeanne had come forward, smiled at

her, and walked directly into the office. The door closed, immediately blocking Lucia's vision, she

took a deep breath, stabilized her emotions, and turned to the other side.

In the office, Jeanne stepped forward, a little aggrieved

August looked up at her and asked in a light tone , "Why are you here?"

Jeanne's eyes turned red instantly, "I didn't want to come here, for fear of causing trouble for you,

but seeing the news this morning... I really can't sit still."

August and the female star Adeline on the Internet. How can she rest assured ? In the early

morning, she struggled again and again, and finally, she still came here. First, because of the

relationship between Adeline and August, she wanted to ask clearly, and second, she stopped by to

check to see if Lucia had given her out.

She sniffed and asked aggrievedly,” August, those on the news aren't true, are they?"

August's heart was unbearably irritable, he raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, his voice

became a little deeper, " Jean , is it true that you still don't know?" He looked up at her, "Or, you

also Did you believe those?"

Seemingly because his eyes were too intimidating, Jeanne's back froze, and she hurried forward,

reaching out and grabbing August's arm,” August, I'm just too confused, I didn't believe you..." Said

With that, she looked like she was about to cry, so pitiful.

August softened a bit, reached out to hold her hand, and

said softly, "I don't mean to blame you, don't think about it." Jeanne sniffed, tightened the hand that

held his arm, and

said softly, "I know, August, I also want to do something for

you to help you share..."

August said in a slow voice, "Just be fine. I'll accompany

you when I'm done with the company's affairs."

Jeanne smiled and asked, "Okay, I'm obedient, so let's have

dinner together tonight?"

"There's an entertainment tonight.”

"What about tomorrow night?"

August frowned slightly, and after a pause, "My father

returns to China tomorrow night, and I'm going to pick him up.”

When Jeanne heard the sound, a gleam of light flashed in

her eyes, and she said with some surprise , "Uncle will come back tomorrow? Then I'll go with you.”

The return of August's father was a great opportunity for her. Originally, they planned to get

engaged, but now that the parents of the two sides met, the marriage was a sure bet!

Hearing the sound, August didn't hesitate and said directly, "No need for now, wait for them to rest,

and then make an appointment for you to meet another day.”

When Jeanne heard this, she was a little disappointed, but she nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll listen

to you.”

She knew in her heart that if she insisted on going, it might backfire, so she might as well take a

step back and think of other ways. All in all, she must find a way to get her parents and August's

family to meet, even if there is no chance, she will make a chance encounter!

Early in the morning the next day, as soon as the stock market opened, the Lion group's shares fell

all the way. Just when various media on the Internet were watching jokes, August urgently accepted

an interview with reporters, " The cooperation plan between the Lion group and the Flying Group

leaked, leading to important data leakage, although this time the Lion group and the Flying Group

leaked. The cooperation between Flying Group has not been reached, but the sale and purchase

cannot be done. I believe that next time, we will have the opportunity to reach new cooperation.”

In addition, he also mentioned the scandal about him and Adeline on the Internet, took the initiative

to clarify the relationship between the two, and apologized to everyone, “I'm sorry for taking up

social resources this time because of my personal problems, here I publicly clarify , I will no longer

respond to other inquiries, in addition, if there are still some inappropriate remarks, I will ask the

lawyer to issue a lawyer's letter in the name of the Lion group ."

These words blocked the mouths of many people. While admitting their mistakes, they warned the

rumour-mongers. Invisibly, they have saved a lot of face for the Lion group .

It is precisely because of the interview that the downward trend of the Lion group's stock market

has slowed down. But the Lion group had already suffered huge losses, and

«in

there was no way to reverse it for a while. While the situation was slowing down, the Lion group also

breathed a sigh of relief.

afternoon, August called an emergency department meeting, and Lucia and Melinda both stayed

outside. Melinda was a little sleepy, so she found a topic to chat with Lucia, "I haven't seen Harris

since the morning interview, why isn't he here?"

Lucia said casually, "I don't know either.”

After the words fell, she suddenly remembered that today is the day of Paula's charity performance.

Burton is not here, so she must have gone to Figo City to find Paula . She thought so, and couldn't

help but twitch her lips.

Melinda next to her rubbed her eyes, "I don't know if I have to work overtime tomorrow, it's been

really tiring these two days." f

Lucia smiled, heard the sound from the conference room, raised her hand and patted Melinda's

shoulder lightly, "Just hold on, it seems that the meeting is over.”

As soon as the meeting was dismissed, Melinda nodded and cheered up.

Soon, the door of the conference room opened, and the heads of various departments came out

one by one. Seeing Carter from the administration department, Lucia smiled at her and greeted her

silently. Then she walked into the conference room and started to pack her things .

August sat at the conference table and didn't move. He looked up to see Lucia coming, and then

got up slowly, "Don't put it away, go back and clean up, and go out with _ Il me.

Lucia gasped, "Me? Okay..." She rarely accompanied August out. It was always done by Burton

before . This time, when Burton was away, he had to take someone with him when he wanted to go

out. Lucia went back and simply cleaned up, touched up her makeup, and then followed August out.

After getting in the car, Lucia didn't ask much, until she noticed that the car was heading towards

the suburbs, she

couldn't help but turn her head to look at the man beside her, " Mr. Adams , where are we... 2" I

thought August was going to socialize, but looking at this posture, it obviously didn't look like it.

The man who was reading the documents heard the sound and slowly turned his head to look at

her. His eyes were black and white, without any fluctuation, "Go to the airport and pick up my

father."

Lucia said in surprise, "Huh?"

When she heard that she was going to meet August's father, she was suddenly nervous.

Seeing her unusual reaction, August asked, "What's

wrong?”

Lucia took a deep breath and pretended to be calm, "No, it's fine."

After a few simple exchanges, the car returned to silence, and Lucia's hands were clenched

unknowingly

This kind of nervousness is a bit similar to the nervousness of meeting a parent, but

There was some traffic jams on the road, and when the car arrived at the airport, it

was already a little late. August walked quickly to the exit and made a phone call to

his father.

Soon, someone answered over there, and Bishop came from the other end with a

faint smile, "Brother, I have already received my parents, and I am on my way back to

the old house.”
