Chapter 24

August looked down and cupped the woman’s small face, "Jeanne, you’re not the only one
who’s suffering.

I promise you’ll get better, so give me some more time, and trust me, huh?"

Jeanne sniffled and begged softly, "Then can you come and see me more often? You’re always busy
these days… "I promise."

August responded, raising his hand to dotingly stroke her cheek, "I will take you abroad in a few days
for a more detailed examination.

You must promise me that eat well and rest well."

Jeanne nodded and hugged him tightly, "I’ll do as I’m told as long as you’re with me."

Putting Jeanne to sleep, August then breathed a sigh of relief.

He slowly walked out of the ward, went to the window sill, and lit a cigarette.

Burton stepped forward and asked softly, "President, didn’t you say you were going to quit smoking?"

August frowned slightly, "When Jeanne’s surgery is over, then I start to quit smoking.

The only woman who can make August quit smoking was Jeanne.

Lucia was lying in bed, tossing and turning, and did not sleep well.

It was going to be holidays, and they needed to prepare appropriate gift boxes for staff, but there were
no factories receiving their order.



Lucia was afraid that if she didn’t hurry up, she would really mess up this matter! Lucia simply got up
from the bed reluctantly.

She looked through the previous documents, and finally determined the style and product of the gift
box, and then started to choose the suitable manufacturers.

It was too late for her to think it thoroughly.

But she rushing to get the gift box ready, was better than having nothing at all.

Finally, Lucia chose a suitable manufacturer whose price was slightly higher than Lucia’s offer and the
factory was also good at the product.

If Lucia talked to the person in charge there, she may have a chance.

But what made her worried was that tomorrow was the weekend, and she didn’t even know the
person’s schedule who was in charge.

Suddenly, Lucia had an idea in her head.

It seemed that this time Lucia had to ask Burton for help, and she would do it tomorrow.

The most important thing was a good sleep to her! 1 The next day.

Lucia woke up, and ate breakfast.

She immediately took the phone and called Burton.

There was someone answering, "Hello? Mrs.Lucia, what can I do for you?"

"Burton, I want to ask you a favor."



"Just say your request."

Lucia took a deep breath and said softly, "Can you help me check the itinerary of a person."

Burton was a special assistant, and it was not difficult to checking an itinerary for him.

"Yes."

Getting his content, Lucia breathed a long sigh of relief, then continued, "Please don’t tell the matter to
August, ok?"

"Yes, just give me the name, and I’ll send it to you directly when I finish it."

Lucia was very happy and she hung up the phone.

And then she started to prepare the documents needed for today’s appointment.

Just for a little while, the phone rang, and received a text message from Burton.

The message about President Martin’s itinerary was very detailed.

As long as Lucia could persuade Martin President to offer the order of the gift box today, she would
settle the matter! Thinking of this, Lucia was very excited, and went to make preparations.

At the other hand, Burton walked up to August and said softly, "President, there is something to report
to you.

Just now Mrs.Lucia called me and asked me to inquire about the itinerary of President Martin of Tiano
Company."

August frowned slightly, "President Martin of Tiano Company?"



Burton nodded, "Well, I guess Mrs.Lucia should be for the recent holiday gift box."

August was silent for a moment and said slightly,"

President Martin, is known for his stubbornness, and he will not easily give up.

I am just afraid that he refused to accept the order because of our company’s quoted price."

"Then…will you want me to help Mrs.Lucia secretly?"

"No."

August said softly.

August remembered that Lucia had said that this time she wanted to try on her own.

2 Then August would like to see if Lucia could succeed or not.

Everything was ready and Lucia was confident.

Lucia carefully checked President Martin’s schedule.

For the whole afternoon, he would be playing golf on an high-end golf course in the suburbs of Austos
City, and in the evening, he would move to the city and meet with some bosses in Karen Club.

If Lucia wanted to go to the golf course, she was not a member and she wouldn’t be able to enter the
field, but if she wanted to go into Karen Club, it was not so difficult.

So, she had her choice after the comparison.

As long as Lucia arrived at the place, she could find a chance to meet with President Martin, and talk
with him sincerely.



The chances of success would be greater.

When it was dark, Lucia ate her meal.

She saw that it was the right time, and went directly to Karen Club.

The chic and sophisticated decoration inside Karen Club indicated it was a place for rich people.

Lucia remembered the door number sent by Burton, so she soon found the place by sorting the rooms.

She walked to the door and heard the noise coming from the room, and she was unconsciously a little
nervous.

From the itinerary provided by Burton, Lucia knew that at this time, the people who were staying with
President Martin should be the bosses of the companies President Martin were likely to cooperate with
this time.

If she barged into the room, she was afraid that not only would she not be able to get the business deal
done, but even be thrown out! Thinking for a while, Lucia bit her lip and had to leave and leave
temporarily.

At this time, she could only think of other ways to contact with President Martin.

If she just waited at the door for Martin to come out, she didn’t know how long she would have to wait.

Suddenly, a waitress wearing overalls and carrying a tray walked by, and Lucia had an idea! Since
Lucia couldn’t go in as herself, she can go in as something else! Lucia quickly walked forward, reached
out a hand to stop the waitress and said, "Hello, can you do me a favor?"

The waitress was confused and asked, "What kind of favor…) have to work."

Lucia took a deep breath and lowered her voice, "I can give you money."



3 The waitress was very strange, "I don’t offer personal services."

Lucia was stunned and quickly understood.

She smiled, and pointed to the clothes on the waitress, "I don’t need any personal services, and I just
need you to lend me the clothes you are wearing for a while."

Twenty minutes later, Lucia was wearing the uniform of Karen Club and slipped out of the staff room.

Wearing this outfit, Lucia would be able to enter the private room without any problems and would have
the chance to get in touch with President Martin.

Lucia plucked up her courage and walked along the corridor towards the direction of the private room.

Just as she approached the corner, she heard a low voice coming from the other side of the corner.

Bennett,was just the name of Present Martin of Tiano Company she would meet! .

It was a man, with a low voice and a somewhat urgent tone.

He seemed to be calling.

Lucia wanted to turn around and walk away directly, but she heard a familiar name.

"Don’t worry, Bennett will not know.

As long as you prepare the goods in advance, when the goods he delivers arrive, we can swap, then
we will get something on him!"

Bennett, was the name of President Martin in Tiano Company, whom she was going to meet! Lucia
held her breath, and stopped.



"What are you afraid of! If you don’t say anything about this and I don’t say anything, who would know
the secret! Have you forgotten Bennett treated you like that before? This time is a good opportunity.

As long as we swap his goods, we can directly call the police and say products manufactured in his
company have problems.

The police are also my people, so he can’t deny!"

Hearing this, Lucia has already guessed that someone wanted to frame Bennett! Suddenly, the person
around the corner approaching her.

Lucia wanted to turn around and leave, but it may be too late.

In a hurry, she saw an empty room, and she did not hesitate to go into the room and close the door.

Soon, the man passed by the door of the empty room, and slowly walked away.

Lucia stood behind the door, and listened to no sound outside, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She slowly opened the door of the empty room.

Luckily, Lucia had not been found out by the person.

Otherwise, her plans in the evening would have been ruined.

4 Lucia walked out of the room, adjusted her breathing, patted her cheeks, and continued to walk
towards the room where President Martin was.

No matter who the person was, the first thing she had to do was to get into the room first "Hey! You,
stop!"

A voice suddenly came from behind her, Lucia’s body stiffened and subconsciously stopped.



Lucia slowly turned around and saw a manager staring at her seriously.

The manager glanced her and asked, "Why I haven’t seen you before?"

Lucia clenched her hand nervously, "I… am new here."

Hearing these, the manager frowned and blamed, "No wonder that no one delivered wine.

Come with me, and deliver wine in Room 18!"

Hearing what he said, Lucia secretly relieved, and hurriedly followed the manager.

After getting the wine, the manager ordered seriously, "Deliver these wines to Room 18, and just be
quick about it!"

"Yes."

Lucia answered and immediately walked towards Room 18, and when she was out of the manager’s
sight, she accelerated her steps and went directly to Room 22 with the tray.

Bennett was in Room 22, so Lucia had to get into as soon as possible to avoid any afterclap.

"Bang Bang."

Lucia raised her hand and opened the door, and then went into the room.

There were three or four men sitting in the room, and two women in skimpy clothes were for company.

The atmosphere was lively and everyone was euphoric in high spirits.
