Chapter 132 stiffened
She had specially come with the lunchbox when there were few people so as not to bump into him, but'®
unexpectedly, she was caught right in the middle of it. ®
August was holding a document in his hand. When he saw her, he raised his eyes to glance at the lunch’
bag on his desk and asked with his lips parted, "What is it? Lucia clenched her hands tightly and said casually, "Nothing special. I made too much bento this morning so I brought you some. Hearing that, August looked a bit less cold He stepped forward and took a glance at what was on his desk, asking, "You made bento? Since when did you stait to do this?"
The last few times when he was at her place, she had ways slept until she woke up naturally in the morning, but today she got up early and prepared the brinto. It was really like having the sun come up in’
the west’
Lucia could tell that the man was teasing her. Unable to pargue, she just curled her lips and said, "If there's'®
nothing else, I'll leave now." ®
Seeing that the man had no reaction, she started to step outside, but before she reached the door,
she’
thought of something and stopped "By the way, what is the company going to do about Ted?" Ted had been caught in bed with another woman by his wife Lilian Stebbing. The scandal was still a hot topic online and kept on making headlines. It was the last shown his face for days. August's face darkened slightly when Ted was mentioned. After a few seconds, he said in a cold voice, "The company is checking the accounts of the Lion Group anymore." The Eastliner Trading was a subsidiary of the Lion Group. Lucia nodded thoughtfully when she heard his words. Thinking of Irene, who was also involved in this matter, she wanted to say something but stopped August seemed to read her mind and said lightly. "Irene has been recuperating at home, and her uncle Mike has already handed in the resignation for her on account of this matter. Heating that, Lucia fell silent and said nothing about it, she turned to glance at the lunchbox on the desk, On the way back, Lucia was lost in thought. This time, things had gone very well. Ted and Irene used to’
give her a hard time, so they deserved what they had gotten, but she still felt there was something’ strange about it." Thinking that she still had a lot of work to do, Lucia couldn't be bothered to think about anything else and'® humed back to her department to work overtime.'®
In the President's Office, August walked to his desk and paused for a moment, looking at the lunch bag’
on the desk’
After a few seconds, he put down the document in his hand and took out the lunchbox. When he lifted" ®
the lid, he saw the stupid smiley face made of ketchup He frowned slightly and stared
Although he said so, his eyebrows were raised.
At that moment, the door of the room was opened. Burton walked in briskly, carrying some packed food"
in his hand. "Mr. Adams, here's your..." ®
Before he finished his sentence, he saw the lunchbox on the desk and paused in confusion "That..." Where did that lunchbox come from? August casually put the lid on and raised an eyebrow. The expression on his face was as calm as ever as’
if there wasn't any change. "Someone gave it to me." Hearing that and looking at August, who was like a man head over heels in love, Burton curved his lips’
knowingly and said with a smile, "Bento with love from Miss Kelly, right?" When Burton Burton. Burton felt a chill and shivered. He hurriedly stopped smling, looked at the packed food in his hand and asked, "What about... this?" August gave him a cold glance and moved his lips, which had been lightly pursed. "You can have it." "Huh?" Burton looked awkward. His stomach was so full that it might explode if he stuffed all the food"
into it.'
August raised an eyebrow and asked, "Gol a problem with that?" ®
"No, no!" Burton didn't hesitate anymore and immediately agreed. He did not dare to have a problem when he was asked to eat. Carter had to be away on business for a few days. When she left, the Administration Department was under the control of Lisa. She told everyone in the department to go to the meeting room for the weekly regular meeting, which wasn't necessary and took the opportunity to make a show of her authority That made many colleagues in the department unhappy.’
Why, Carter hos never been like this as the supervisor. Lisa is just a supervisor assistant. Who does she think she is to make us go to meetings and udmonish us? She is so annoying” I know I think Lisa has been trying so hard to hide her true face. She just can't wait to show it when Carter loni herel,'®

Two female colleagues whispered to each other and laughed every now and then, without noticing that the one they were talking about was standing behind them. Lisa heard everything they said. She bit her lip and her face got increasingly sullen.'®
She raised her hands, put them on the backs of their chairs and looked at them condescendingly. "Why?" ®
You're so idle? Do you need more work?" ®
When those two women turned around and saw her, they instantly turned pale with fear.'® "Li-Lisa.." ®
Lisa frowned and turned the corners of her mouth upward in a false smile, asking, "Weren't you talking’
aboui me just now? Why don't you go on with it?"
The two female colleagues were so frightened that their bodies trembled slightly. Now at this point, Lisa’
was the last one they could afford to offend. They would be in trouble. Lucia noticed the oppressive atmosphere in the public desk area when she passed by. Seeing Lisa’ questioning the two female colleagues in an unforgiving way, she wanted to go over and say something’
to stop Lisa. Just then, some sounds came suddenly froin the other side.'®

"We're finished...

Emma wiped her tears with grievances. "They didn't approve it, saying our documents were incomplete,’
but just now the Marketing Department went for a budget with the same documents and they approved"
The budget they needed to apply for ths time was very important, because they had to complete a task
fo the quarterly assessment. If the Finance Department didn't approve i, they would have no money to'®
get the task done and fail to met the standards of the departmental assessment. In that case, the'®
quarterly bonus of the whole department would be gone. Upon hearing Emma say that the Finance Department dit approve the budget those who had been se
