Chapter 256

Making Her Feel Guilty

When Lucia raised her head, she happened to meet Jeanne's eyes.

Both of them kept silent, but they seemed to have read each other's mind by eye contract.

Lucia looked away first, and when she thought of what had happened last night, she couldn't help
feeling troubled.

Last night, she had had a fever and been in a daze.

And she had never expected that August would go to meet her or stay at her home to I take care of her
all night.

They had indeed spent a night together, so she found it hard to give a convincing explanation.

Jeanne had not said anything, but Lucia thought she must mistakenly believe there was something
between August and her.

I Seeing this, Bonnie who was standing beside Jeanne couldn't help &125; murmuring.

Hearing her words, Jeanne frowned seemingly angrily, turned her head to look at her, and said coldly,
"Bonnie, shut up!"

Instantly, Bonnie stopped murmuring.

Seeing this, Lucia took a deep breath and tightly clasped her hands, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Even if the explanation would be useless, she must explain now.

So, she gritted her teeth, looked up at Jeanne, and said firmly, "Ms.



Kelly, President Adams did go to my home last night.

I was sick and had a high fever, and he is the only person I can ask for help, so I called him and asked
him to buy some antipyretics for me.

But my fever did not reduce after I took the antipyretics.

President Adams was afraid that something would happen to me, so he stayed at my home."

Lucia took a deep breath and continued, "I swear there is nothing between us.

I'm sorry that I forgot about President Adams's status and ignored your relationship with him."

Now, she could only take all the blame.

Otherwise, August and Jeanne might have a quarrel because of her.

If the marriage between the Kelly family and the Adams family was affected, she could not bear the
consequence.

After all, she was just a petty employee.

When she was lost in thought, Jeanne suddenly said, "It's okay.

I believe August.

We are about to get engaged, so he won't do anything to hurt me."

Lucia's heart skipped a beat, and her palms were sweating.

Then, Jeanne continued, "Lucia, you're my good friend, so I believe you won't hurt me either."

Lucia raised her head, looked into her eyes, and nodded, "Ms.



Kelly, I will keep a distance from President Adams.

Don't worry."

Hearing this, Jeanne smiled, put her hand on the back of Lucia's, and said softly, "Thank you."

After chatting for a while, Lucia used the company's business as an excuse to say goodbye to Jeanne
and then left the cafe.

As soon as she walked out, Jeanne's face turned gloomy.

When she stared after the slender figure outside the window, an evil light flashed in her eyes.

Bonnie let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Jeanne, how is my acting just now?"

Jeanne turned her head back and smiled, "You can win an award for your acting skills."

Bonnie shrugged smugly, leaned over, and asked, "But I can't figure out why we had to act in front of
her."

Jeanne snorted, "As long as she is sensible, she won't have any intimate contact with August anymore.

She must feel very guilty for this incident, so it will be much easier to make use of her in the future."

She knew Lucia's temperament well.

As long as Lucia trusted her, everything would become easier because she could control her and
induce her into doing many things.

Sure enough, Lucia had suffered from guilt conscience for the whole afternoon.

She had not expected Jeanne to be so generous.



If Lucia's fiancé stayed at another woman's home for one night, she would not be able to accept it.

At thought of this, she sighed.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, so she came back to her senses.

"Lucia, would you please let President Adams review and sign the document?"

Lucia took it over and nodded, "I'll send it to President Adams later and let you know when it's signed."

"Thank you."

Lucia picked up all the documents that August needed to review, got up, went to his office, and
knocked on the door.

And she did not push the door open or went in until she heard his response from inside.

She stepped forward, put the documents on the desk, and said, "President Adams, please review and
sign these documents."

Hearing this, August picked one up to read.

His expression was attentive when he looked through the documents, and he made a few notes with
her pen from time to time.

Soon, two documents had been signed, and he told her one needed to be revised.

Lucia nodded and took the documents over.

When she was about to leave, she was stopped.



August straightened his back, leaned back, and snapped the cap on his pen when his emotionless
eyes swept over her.

Lucia felt a little nervous, and her heart began racing.

August had stopped her and didn't give any orders, and she thought this was the most torturous
moment.

When she was about to ask, he said in a cold voice, "I have a business dinner tonight, and you will go
with me."

"But I..."

Lucia frowned, feeling a little unwilling.

When she thought about what had happened this noon, she didn't know whether she should agree.

If she agreed, Jeanne would know and think she broke her promise.

But it was part of her job, so she should not refuse Aware of her hesitation, August frowned, looked up
at her, and asked, "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?"

Lucia took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and said straightly, "I want to go back home early to rest
today.

What's more, I have a wound on my head now.

I'm afraid it's not proper for me to attend business dinners."

Hearing this, August narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at her forehead, and said lightly, "OK, I see."



Hearing this, Lucia showed a happy look and quickly said, "Thank you, President Adams."

Then, she stepped out of the office.

A trace of confusion flashed across August's face, and he frowned unconsciously.

If he had not seen it wrong, Lucia’s eyes had flashed with joy.

Was she reluctant to go to business dinners with him? Or was she reluctant to work as his secretary?
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became.

Suddenly, Burton knocked on the door.

"President Adams, the cooperation plan with the Flying Group has been drafted," Burton said, handing
over a document.

When August heard it was the cooperation plan with the Flying Group, the gloom on his face
immediately disappeared.He showed a serious look, took over the plan, and started to read.He would
cooperate with Flying Group on a big project this time, and the investment was up to 700 million
dollars.

As early as a week ago, this cooperation had been frequently reported in the news, and everyone in
the business circle in Austin City knew about it now.

This project was also one of the Lion group's biggest projects in the second half of the year, so August
was paying special attention to it.

Opening the plan, August frowned while reading and said, "The later stage of the business planning
needs to be revised."

"Yes."



Seeing Burton turn around to leave, August stopped him and asked, "By the way, what's the Kelly
Group doing now?"

Burton stopped his steps and replied softly, "My finger man told me the Kelly Group is planning to hold
a press conference."

August nodded slightly and said lightly, "Well, I see."

Sure enough, Martin was doing as he had said.

Actually, making a public apology was not the only way, and the Lion group could help him.But August
was unwilling to do so.He preferred to watch the Kelly Group go to destruction little by little from a
bystander's point of view.
