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.

"Nothing serious."

Lucia managed only a weak smile and went on walking toward the office.

When she was going past the office tables, Lisa was checking the data, who thus started jeering coldly,
"Something's got to give if he or she is guilty."

"The truth will come to light sooner or later." someone even added.

But Lucia was too busy pondering on August's behavior to care about the mockery now.



Yet Emma just found it necessary to protest for her friend.

She thus frowned and retorted, "Think before you speak, please.Stop gossiping when you've got no
idea of the truth."

"Who's speaking without thinking? Or did I get at anyone?"

A woman raised her defiant eyebrows, "What are you being proud of? Simply because you've been
promoted? Please stop displaying the false friendship when you are the one who took the position of
others."

The woman's words were not for nothing, which made Emma flushing at once and speechless now.

Lucia only frowned and turned to Emma, "Let's go back to our office."

Emma nodded embarrassedly and was about to walk on with Lucia, when that woman continued,
"Why? Where has the arrogant air of yours gone? So my words are to the point?"

"What a bull-shitter!"

Emma turned round to rebuke in rage.

The atmosphere crackled with tension as the woman rose to her feet, being equally exasperated.

At that instant, the door of the supervisor's room opened to reveal Carter, who appeared extremely
solemn.

Glancing over the people around, she snapped coldly, "So I've assigned you guys too few tasks?"

The tempest immediately abated as everyone took their eyes back for their own business.

Carter then turned to Lucia, "Do you have some minutes? Come to my office, please."



Gritting her teeth, Lucia nodded and obeyed.

She actually only wanted to be left alone in the office after the heart-thumping storm in the meeting
room, not expecting the turbulence to be waiting for her here too.

With a quiet sigh, she entered Carter's office.

Cater uttered before Lucia could get around to saying anything, "You could go home now."

Lucia was stunned.

"Did I do anything wrong, Carter?"

She just couldn't understand why she was still driven home when Jamie had make everything clear
enough in the meeting.

Carter laughed.

"I'm only asking you to take a rest.I've heard of what's happened in the meeting.You could well take a
half day's leave, just to get refreshed."

Drawing a breath of relief, Lucia touched her forelock, "Oh it just gave me start! Thank you, Carter."

"All right."

Carter said with a smile, "Start doing the case of Jonathan Black's commercial for us from tomorrow
when you're back.You're appointed by the higher ranks for it, and other coworkers will take over your
current work."

Though being a bit surprised, Lucia still nodded.



She then wasted no time to head for the hospital, and felt relieved when she found her father in quite a
good condition that day.

After having supper with her parents, she eventually went back to her flat.

The turbulent experience of the day had made her so exhausted that she fell asleep unconsciously
when she could finally grasp a chance to rest in the bathtub.

The hot water had been lukewarm when she woke up.She hastened to rose and went out with a bath
towel.

It was already quite late when she'd dried her hair.

She was going to bed when there was a flash in her phone, which was being recharged at her bedside.

She picked it up, just to find two unanswered calls from August.

That got her nervous again, though she had just spent quite some effort to get herself to ease up.

What was he doing by calling her at such a late hour? Staring at the screen, she was hesitating about
whether she should call him back now.

The phone buzzed at that moment, and she just answered it without thinking.

"Hello, Lucia?" came a man's languorous voice.

She automatically felt a chill rippling down her body hearing her name being called by August.

"What' the matter?" asked she.

"I want to see you now." August said bluntly.



She couldn't help getting nervous hearing his magnetic voice on the phone.

After a slight pause, she replied calmly, "Whatever it is, could we talk about it later on? It's late now."

August just continued unheedingly, "I'm just outside your building now."

Lucia hurried to ask with astonishment, "What on earth is the matter?"

What was so important that he couldn't talk about it on the phone? Gritting her teeth, Lucia made up
her mind that she wouldn't open the door even if August went upstairs.

"Could you go downstairs?" said August on the phone, "I've got something to tell you..."

As his voice became weaker, which was quite different from his usual tone, Lucia realized something.

"Did you go for a drink?" she asked, though being quite uncertain, as she remembered he did sound
like that when he got drunken before.

With a pause, August replied curtly, "Yes."

Taking a gasp, Lucia's resolution was shaking.

"Oh, then you'd better go home as early as possible." advised she.

"You come downstairs...as I do have something to say..." added August, "or I'll go to knock on your
door."

"Don't!"

With a flop in her heart, Lucia said from between her teeth, "Ok, I'll get down now."

She was just afraid August would lose control of himself due to the alcohol.



When the conversation was over, she threw on a long overcoat and took a bottle of icy water from the
refrigerator before she went out.
