Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom Chapter 412

Chapter 412Chapter 412 Being Targeted
novelbinThe atmosphere had been pleasant in the morning because of the episode.
They packed their things and went straight to the swimming pool where Timothy and Janet learned to
swim.
It was an upscale swimming pool with a great environment and experienced instructors.
Of course, it was also very expensive, but after a few lessons, the two children improved a lot in
swimming.It was a test this time.
The children would first compete in swimming and then enjoyed the water with their parents.
There were ten groups in total.
The parents of the children were already there.
A female instructor checked them in and told them to change and take a shower.
Since it was a swimming pool, they inevitably had to get in the water.
Paul and Timothy changed their clothes but didn't see Lucia and Janet at the pool.
More and more parents and children gathered at the pool.
Timothy couldn't help but look up and ask Paul, "Dad, where's mom and Janet?"
Paul looked down, stroked his head, and whispered, "Timothy, boys have to be patient with girls, you
know?"
Timothy nodded blankly, and Paul smiled at him.When he looked up, he saw Lucia and Janet walking out of the women's changing room.
Lucia was wearing a white strappy swimsuit.
Her white skin and perfect body instantly captivated everyone.
Paul couldn't help but gulp.He even felt his hands sweating.He and Lucia had known each other for
years, but she could still surprise him.
Janet was wearing a swimsuit with a pink bow.She looked so adorable.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to them, especially the men, but they were discouraged when they saw
Lucia and Janet walking toward Paul.
They thought that only such wonderful parents could have such beautiful children.
Soon everyone was gathered at the pool.
The two instructors introduced the rules to them and the event began.
On the other side of the pool, a fully-dressed man was sitting in the audience staring at the family of
four in the crowd.
Meanwhile, the conference room at Lion Group was filled with people but silent.
Everyone tried their best to keep their heads down.
The mood was subdued.
With a clap, August slammed the folder on the desk with a gloomy face.
"Is this the final plan you all agreed on?"He stared angrily at a few of them.
Those people all lowered their heads and kept silent.
August slowly clenched his fists.He was losing his temper deliberately.
Several executives in the company had been very arrogant lately.
They had even given important documents to Bishop and pushed them through without August's
consent.
August had been dealing with other things, but he knew Bishop had bought them off.
Bishop wanted to get rid of his people and dethrone him.
In the end, the executives would be distracted even if Bishop failed.
He was so shrewd.
August frowned at the supervisor of the planning department and said coldly, "Mr.Rankin, I heard that
you've been taking a lot of time off recently because of family matters.Since you don't want to work, I'll
give you a vacation.What do you think?"
Mr.Rankin's face instantly became pale.He knew that August was actually going to dismiss him from
his job.
With trembling hands, he looked up at August and forced a smile.
"Mr.Adams, I've been leading the planning department for several years.If I leave, maybe it will..."
August had guessed what he was going to say.He raised his eyebrows slightly and said casually, "It's okay.Ned McDowell, the deputy supervisor, has
also been there for three years.He can handle a lot of things on his own.Don't worry.You'll still be in
charge when you come back."
Mr.Rankin opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.He knew there was no way he would
come back if he agreed.He regretted trusting Bishop.He shouldn't have sided with him! It was silent in
the conference room.
Everyone was waiting for Mr.Rankin to say something.
August scanned them and finally stared at Mr.Rankin.He didn't rush him but waited for him to speak up.
However, at that moment, it was noisy outside the conference room.
Burton walked out and soon returned with a serious face.
He walked quickly to August and reported, "Sir, Ned is gone.He left a resignation letter!"
"What?"
August frowned coldly.
He had just said he would promote Ned, but Ned had suddenly left! What a weird coincidence! He
scanned the crowd coldly and quickly turned to leave.
As soon as he went out of the conference room, he ordered Burton, "Find Ned by any means
necessary.I want to see him!"
August had already known that Mr.Rankin had been bought off by Bishop, so he took the opportunity to
dismiss him.He just hadn't expected Ned to leave suddenly.He didn't have to think about it to know who
had planned it.He frowned and tried to recall all the details, his eyes filled with anger.Bishop made no secret of his actions this time.It seemed that he was losing impatience.
August had predicted a few years ago that the two of them would have a bad fight sooner or later.
Furious, he returned to his office and put his phone down on his desk irritably.His finger accidentally
touched the screen.
It lit up and there was a new message on it.
He took a deep breath and clicked on it.
"August, how does it feel to see this?"
In the photo below, Lucia, in a white swimsuit with a big smile on her face, was pushing Timothy in a
water wing.
Paul was holding Janet with one arm and had his other arm around Lucia's waist.
The four of them looked happy and intimate.
August's chest felt tight.
Suddenly, he glanced at the bottom right corner of the photo and he frowned at once.
It was the spider web symbol again! Obviously, the photo had been photoshopped! August's eyes were
as cold as a deep pool.
Even the temperature around him had dropped.
He had just doubted when Lucia had received the jade and the card at Starlight House yesterday, but
this message was enough to show that Lucia was being targeted by Mr.Denko!
