Chapter 196 He Was Invincibly Decisive
"You two..."
Paula smiled meaningfully and winked at them mysteriously.
Lucia was a little embarrassed to hear what she implied.
Paul looked at Lucia, and then turned to Paula, beckoning her not to talk nonsense with his eyes.
Paula took the hint, smiled, and took Lucia's arm, "The procedures are all done.Shall we go?"
Lucia nodded, raised her eyes, and happened to meet Paul's eyes.
Both of them were startled and then looked away in unison.
The atmosphere was somehow ambiguous.
Lucia came to her sense and immediately followed Paula out of the room.
It seemed that from the moment she fed Paul water, the distance between them had unknowingly narrowed a bit.
After coming out of the hospital, Andy drove them to take them back.
They arrived at Lucia’s community.
The car was parked downstairs of her apartment.
She said goodbye to them, "Well, I'll go back first.Goodbye."
After saying goodbye, Lucia got off the car and walked into the apartment building.
In the car, Paul turned his head and looked out the window.
In the dim car, his gentle and bright eyes always followed Lucia.
When the car started, Paula finally couldn't stand it anymore, "Okay, bro! She's gone!"
Paul turned his head, and his face suddenly became serious.
A few minutes later, he suddenly said word by word in a firm tone, "I've decided.I'm going to confess my love to Lucia."
When Paula heard this, her eyes widened.
She and Andy, who was also shocked, looked at each other.
After a few seconds, she calmed down a bit, "Paul? Did I hear it right?"
Paul was going to confess his love to Lucia? There had been many girls around Paul since he was a child, but he had never liked any of them.She had noticed that he was different from Lucia, but she had thought it was just a whim.She hadn't expected him to be serious.
Paul nodded without hesitation, "Yeah."
His feelings for Lucia were genuine.
"That's great!"
Paula clapped her hands happily, "My best friend is m going to become my sister-in-law.It's so great!"
She had casually joked and teased Lucia in the past.
But she hadn't expected it to come true! Lucia came home and sat down on the sofa, feeling a little tired.She leaned against the cushion at will, closed her eyes, and thought of the slap she had given August in the bar just now.She shouldn't have hit him.
Feeling a little ashamed, she took out her phone and opened the dialog box with August.
After much hesitation, she typed "I'm sorry" and hesitated again.
She didn't dare to click send.
Her apology did not sound sincere, and he would never accept it and forgive her.
Forget it.
She'd better think of another way.
Lucia took a long sigh and stepped into the bedroom.
The next morning, a department meeting was held in the company.
Lucia sorted out the report and sent it to Carter.
Carter took it, flipped through the document, and nodded.
She looked up at Lucia, and said softly, "You can go to the meeting with me later."
When Lucia heard her words, most of her sleepiness instantly dissipated, and she instantly cheered up, "You're asking me to go to the department meeting with you?"
Carter nodded slightly, "Yes, it's time to train you."
Hearing her words, Lucia secretly rejoiced.
Carter had brought Lisa to attend such important meetings in the department before.
This time Carter was taking her to the meeting, which showed her recognition of her.
Lucia immediately smiled and bowed to Carter, "Okay, I'll go get ready now."
In such interdepartmental meetings, it was necessary to report the main content of each department recently and to listen to the assignment and deployment of the next work by the superiors.
It was a good opportunity to learn something.
Lucia was naturally looking forward to it.
But after turning around and leaving the supervisor's office, Lucia suddenly thought of something, and the smile on her face froze.
If she went to the department meeting, it meant she had to meet August.
Lucia didn't dare to think more about it.She had just provoked him last night, and today they met on such an occasion.
Would August take revenge in public? Lucia was worried.
She thought about it and finally went back to the office to get the notebook and pen she needed before she followed Carter to the conference room.
Before the meeting started, Lucia was holding a pen and felt a little flustered.
Suddenly, Carter, who was sitting next to her, leaned toward her and said in a low voice, "This time the document was organized by you.Are you familiar with the content?"
Lucia didn't think much and nodded subconsciously.
Carter said in a light tone, "Okay, then each department has to report on their work later.You will report on behalf of our department."
When Lucia heard this, she immediately woke up a little and her eyes widened.
She looked at Carter and asked, "Me?"
Carter raised his eyes, looked at her, and asked, "Is there a problem?"
Lucia took a deep breath and said, "No...no problem."
"Don't be nervous.It's just like reporting on work as usual."
Hearing Carter's encouragement, Lucia nodded and secretly cheered herself up.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open.
August, wearing a black couture suit, strode in, walked directly to the head of the conference table, and sat down. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
With his arrival came some pressure.
The conference room fell silent, and even the heads of various departments sat up upright silently.
Lucia took a deep breath and glanced in August's direction, feeling even more nervous.
After a moment, August raised his head, glanced at the crowd, and said in a deep tone, "Let's start.Each department will take turns reporting the recent work."
After he said that, the representative of the Finance Department on the far left stood up first and began to report.
Lucia took a deep breath and silently counted the number of people before it was her turn.
She nervously flipped through the report documents in her hand.
Soon, when it was the Administrative Department's turn, Lucia took a deep breath, saw Carter's beckoning eyes, immediately stood up, and started reporting.
From the beginning to the end, August never looked at her much.
Thus her nervousness was relieved a little, and the whole reporting process went smoothly.
After the work report was over, she sat down and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, August didn't mean to embarrass her.
Otherwise, she would not know what to do.
The report was continued by the next department representative.
Lucia slowly came to her sense, turned her head slightly, and unconsciously looked at August over there.His face was slightly gloomy.He was more serious than cold.He asked questions for every questionable detail and assigned follow-up work.He was invincibly decisive.
Some people were indeed born to be presidents.
Lucia sighed secretly in her heart.
Just as she was distracted, August suddenly turned his head and glanced toward her.
Feeling the coldness in his eyes, Lucia instantly woke up a little bit.
She looked away in a panic, and she looked a little awkward.
Did he think that she was peeking at him just now?
