Chapter 267 Maybe She Thinks Too Much
August frowned for a moment before turning around.
Seeing the man's bright black eyes on herself, Lucia, who was ina nervous mood, became even more upset.
In just a few hours in the morning during which the incident was exposed, the event sparked a discussion in the public with a master faster speed than what she imagined.
Even she could feel the urgency and pressure.
This was the first time she had experienced such a stressful time in the two years she had worked in the Lion group .
"Come here."
The man's low and magnetic voice sounded.
Lucia returned to her senses, met his eyes, and stepped forward.
After approaching him, she asked, "Mr.Adams, what do you want me to do?"
The man ordered, calmly, "You should reject all requests, including those from senior shareholders.You can tell them that I am thinking about remedies to protect the President's Office, understand?"
Lucia took a deep breath, feeling somewhat moved in her heart.
August said this to her, showing that he still trusted her.She raised her eyes to meet his, and nodded earnestly, "Okay, Mr.Adams."
Since he believed her, she would naturally help him by his side unconditionally.
With just a glance, the two seemed to have reached a consensus.
After Lucia left the office, August turned to look at Burton, "Go check it out who is secretly adding oil to fires and manipulating public opinions.Follow my order about what to be do next."
Burton cheered himself up and said immediately, "Yes."
"Well, you can leave down."August said, but Burton didn't mean to leave.He stood there, obviously wanting to say something.
August looked at him, "What's wrong?"
Burton hesitated about what to say before he finally opened his mouth, "Mr.Adams, I want to take a leave of absence."
Paula had a performance in Figo City on Saturday which was tomorrow and he wanted to watch that, so he should leave tonight.
August frowned slightly, "What are you going to do?"
In the few years that Burton followed August, he took very few leave.
Now under such a serious situation of the Lion group, Burton's departure would make August lose his right-hand man.
Seemingly embarrassed, Burton paused before whispering, "Paula is going to Figo City for a charity performance tomorrow..."
He had thought August would not let him go when hearing this reason, but it only took seconds for the man to say in a low voice, "Okay."
Burton looked up in shock at August , "Really?"
The corners of August's lips twitched slightly, and he said lightly, "It's rare for you to ask for a leave of absence.How can I reject?"
"Mr.Adams, if you reject, I won't have any disagreement..."
If August said he needed him, he would stay.
Yet out of August’s expectation, August agreed so simply .
August raised his eyes which seemed to be flickering with a smile, "Go, don't let me down."
Upon hearing that, Burton felt quite surprised.
And he nodded before exited the room.
The moment the door closed, the curvature of August 's lips deepened.
If it were him, he would definitely go there for the woman he loves.
For a moment, this thought flashed in his mind, and for some reason, he thought of Lucia inexplicably , the little woman's cheeks were pink, and it flashed by, just for that moment.
After a few seconds, August frowned slightly.
How could he think of her at such a time? Before he could understand, the phone on the table suddenly rang, August raised his hand and took a look, his eyes stopped briefly.
Taking a deep breath, he picked up the phone, "Hello, Dad."
Eliot 's voice like a bell came from the other end of the phone , "
August , what's going on with you! Don't tell me anything about such a big thing! The stock is about to hit its limit, have you? Think of any remedy?"
A series of questions poured in, August frowned uncomfortably, and finally replied lightly, "Dad, I'll figure it out."
He had nothing to say about his father.
Although he said on the surface that he was taking Mrs.Yu abroad to live in old age and enjoy his old age in peace, it was unclear who it was, and the power in the company was always firmly in his hands.
The equity held by him alone is an overwhelming existence.
So the Lion group suddenly had an accident, and he couldn't sit still after all.
Raising his hand and pressing his eyebrows, August forbeared the irritability in his heart, "Dad, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
This panacea reply didn't help Eliot here, he snorted coldly, and then said, "I'm really worried, so your aunt and I decided to go back to China for a while."
August was slightly startled, "When are you going to come back?"
"The ticket has been booked, tomorrow morning, to Austos City in the evening ."
Hearing the sound, August frowned.
The plane ticket has been booked in advance, and it was delayed until now to call him to talk about it. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
This is obviously not a discussion, but a notification.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he still responded smoothly , "Okay, send me the flight information, and I will pick you up tomorrow"
Eliot didn't seem to be in a good mood, and he didn't have much patience, so he coldly ordered, "You settle the matter as soon as possible, as well as your messy private life, let me clean it up, is it clear!"
Hearing Eliot's irritated voice, August answered twice, until he hung up the phone directly.
August had a hunch that Eliot 's return this time was probably not just because of this sudden incident.
This time, once he brought that woman back, he probably wouldn't leave easily.
And what was waiting for him, he couldn't predict.busy for more than an hour, Lucia and the assistants in the president's office finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The landline on the table has not been stopped since morning, and now it is finally possible to clean up for a while.
"Ms.Mitchell , come, drink some water."
Melinda was tired too, but still didn't forget to pour Lucia a glass of water .
"Thank you."
Lucia smiled at her, and just picked up the cup and took a sip to moisten her throat when the landline on the table rang again.
She took a deep breath and raised her hand to take it, "Hello, the president's office."
"This is the front desk, Ms.Mitchell , Ms.Kelly went upstairs just now.Now is a special period.I'll report to you after thinking about it"
Lucia heard the sound, frowned, and said softly, "Okay."
One morning, many media reporters came to the company to ask for an interview.She asked the front desk to stop her.She didn't expect that Jeanne would suddenly come over at this time, which surprised her.She got up and left the office, walked to the door, waited for a while, and saw Jeanne coming out of the elevator.
In fact, she still had some doubts about what happened last time.
When she was ina trance, Jeanne came over, waved at her and smiled, "Lucia !"Lucia curled her lips and said softly, "Ms.Kelly is here to find Mr.Adams , I have to report first before you can enter."
Jeanne tilted her head and smiled, with a sweet smile , "Okay, you can report first, I will cooperate with your work."
Seeing that there was nothing unusual on her face, and her eyes were open and frank, Lucia put away the suspicion in her heart, turned around and walked towards the office.
How could the leak of the plan have anything to do with Jeanne ? Maybe she thought too much.
