Chapter 162'13

The time passed in a Nash and Lucia had had two days off at home'13

She still had some injuries on her body, and she had told Mr. Mitchell that her business trip would

last four days, so she did not dare to visit him in the hospital, but stayed alone in the small

apartment for two days.'®

When she returned to work, the news that she had finished her study trip early because of her

health had already spread through the department, so Carter didn't ask her what happened and

even for the trip report, The two days in Franksfurt were like a dream, passing by in a flash, without

anything left, When Lucia picked up a cup to get water from the pantry area, Emma came over and

touched her arm, whispering, "Lucia,'®

don't feel too bad and it is not your fault.” Lucia was confused and didn't understand what she was

talking about, "Emma, what are you talking about?” Emma, who had been asked, was equally

confused. After a two-second pause, she asked rhetorically, "Aren't you sad?"

Sed about what?" Emma said softly, "I heard people say that you wasted the opportunity to go out

to study this time for being sick, so you are having a hard time..." Hearing her say so, Lucia not only

did not feel bad but also wanted to laugh. When did she say she was having a hard time? Some

gossipy colleagues in the department were really so good at distorting the facts.’

Lucia curled up her lips and smiled at Emma, "Don't worry and I'm fine. Although I missed this

opportunity, I'll just fight for

other opportunities next time." ®

as soon as she turned her head, she saw Lisa standing not far behind her."

There was a bit of sarcasm under her eyes and Lisa obviously heard what she said just to you alone.

This time, the whole’

administration department missed the opportunity to learn because of you, and you are that?" Her

words were full of sneer and sarcasm, so she obviously came to pick a fight with Lucia on purpose.

Lucia took a deep breath, unwilling to argue with her so much, and she only said lightly, "This

opportunity is for everyone. We indeed lost the opportunity to learn this time because of me, but it

doesn't mean that I don't even she passed by Lisa, she was suddenly hit by her. With a shake of her

hand, the hot turned to look at Lisa on the side, saying angrily, "Lisa, what are you doing?" Lisa

blatantly bumped into her like this in front of so many colleagues, with no regard for others’

opinions apparently.’

Lucia, I just want to advise you that if you don't have the ability, don't be the end." After Lisa said

this, she turned around and left arrogantly.’

the desk area, she felt depressed, like a big stone in her heart. No one stood up to speak for her.

The last time when she went to the Finance Department to report for the approval of payments,

many people had changed ther minds about her, but now, even when it came to matters that did

not touch their interests, they were still so indifferent Biting her before picking up the cup'®

give in when she had to fight for the chance. Not long after she returned to the office, Emma

brought in a document, “Lucia, this is the document to be sent to the'®

President's Office’ ®

"Okay, ®

check it out if there are no mistakes, I'll send it over laler” ®

Then I'll leave A to you" ®

After Emma left, Lucia looked at the document on the table with some hesitation. She just came

back to work today and had two days of rest at home, so it's been two or three days since she came

back from Franksfurt. If August had returned Cannada? Since she had made that phone call to

August, the two of them had not contacted each other could be further from the truth. She had just

arrived at the President's Office after checking the document when she saw August and Burton

hurrying toward the conference room. Subconsciously a little nervous, she gripped the document in

her hand and

"Mitchell, Mr. Adams asked you to come to his office.” At these words, Lucia gritted

nodded her head in response, "Okay."

Following them into the office, Burton put down his things, and then he turned around and left,

closing the office door for'

them as well."

Lucia bowed her head slightly and said in a businesslike tone, "Here are the documents that need

your approval.”

With that, she stepped forward and put the documents down.'®

August sat on the chair. Looking at the woman's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but frown.

They hadn't seen each other for only a few days, but she had become so cold. With a slight change

in mood, August leaned back in his chair and said lightly, "Feeling better?" Faced with August's

sudden greeting, Lucia hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes." After saying these two words, she

paused and added, "If there's nothing else, I'll go to work.” Now when she saw August, she would

think of the phone call that Adeline answered, then she would feel strange in her heart. When he

saw her turn to leave, a trace of displeasure appeared on August's face, and he called out to her in a

cold voice,

"Who told you to leave?" They had just not seen each other for a few days but she had shrinking in

his arms for warmth. He had never met such a heartless woman before. - to do?"

August fished out a business card from the drawer and also said in a cold tone, "Here is the phone

number you asked for." ®

When she heard that, a ight swept through Lucia's eyes. Then she took » deep breath and stepped forward '®

The last time when they were in Franksfurt, August promised to ask Burton to send her Dr. Long's contact information, but she hadn't received it in recent

doys.®

Seeing the business card on the table, Lucia was a lite excited and said softly, “Thank you.”

As she said that, she reached out her hand to take it!

Was she 50 ungrateful?’ ®
