"Don’t worry, Lucia.I’m here today to fight for you!"
With that, Paula rolled her cuffs up, ready for a fight.
August’s frown deepened.
He turned to look at Burton with course, he could tell that this woman was not easy to deal with, but he did not dare to disobey the president’s order, so he had to brace himself and go forward.
"Please come out with me, Miss."
Paula coldly snorted.
"Out? Why should I go out?"
She came here to scold the scumbag who had bullied Lucia! Lucia saw that Paula was still furious, so she quickly said, "Go out and wait for me, Paula.I need to talk to him."
Paula obviously didn’t want to leave, but Burton, who was next to her, had reached out to grab her wrist, pulled her hand behind her back, and held her shoulder.
Paula’s face turned red with anger and annoyance as he held her like that.
"You...let go of me!"
"Burton.
Seeing what Burton did to Paula, Lucia wrinkled her eyebrows.
"Be gentle!"
Burton curved his lips slightly and said gently as he pushed Paula out, "Don’t worry, Ms.Mitchell, I’m very gentle."
With the door slamming, Paula, who was cursing, and Burton, who was trying to calm her down, were awkward.
Lucia gritted her teeth, gathered the courage to take two steps forward, and looked up to meet the man’s gaze before she took a deep breath and said, "Let’s talk."
"About what?"
August stepped towards her with a calm face and smooth breath, but his eyes were cold enough to make her shiver.
He finally stopped when he was half a meter away from her and leaned slightly closer to her.
The man’s smell slowly lips were slightly parted and he quietly said, "Did I ever say I wouldn’t take responsibility for you, Lucia?"
It was her who had evaded and refused him over and over again.
His voice was like a magic potion.
She felt a tingle all over her body as it came to her ears.She subconsciously backed up to keep a distance from him and forced herself to stay alert.
When he was that close to her just now, she was so disturbed that she got a mental block and forgot all the words she had been trying to say.
"I...I’m here to resign."
She averted her eyes, fished her resignation letter out of her pocket, and handed it to him.
August looked down and saw the large words on the envelope.
His eyebrows were instantly furrowed and an inconspicuous dark light flickered in his eyes.
He stretched out his hand with well-defined knuckles and took the letter.
After his eyes lingered briefly on it, he tore the letter directly into pieces without even taking another look at it.
"You!"
Lucia was stunned.
"What are you doing?" He spoke in a light voice, sounding quite calm.
"The resignation is invalid."
Hearing his words, the calm Lucia had tried to maintain vanished instantly.
She asked, "Why is it invalid?"
August glanced at her without saying anything.
He turned around walked straight to his desk, and took out a document from the drawer.´ employment contract states that the defaulting party has to pay one million to the other party, and the name on it was signed by your own hand."
Lucia grabbed the document in disbelief.
She was surprised and astonished to see the signature at the bottom.
That was indeed her handwriting!´ A few days ago, Carter said that Lucia was getting a pay rise and gave her some documents to sign, saying that her contract would be renewed for three years.
Lucia didn’t give it much thought at the time, nor did she read the terms and conditions carefully.
She just signed them, not expecting that it was a trap that August had set for her! 100N´ Lucia’s heart throbbed and she asked, "Why...Why are you doing this to me?’
She had her kidney to Jeanne? She was furious and grabbed the contract to tear it up.
August frowned.
He immediately stepped forward and grabbed her hand.
"Even if you tear it up, the contract is still valid!"
At this point, she had no other choice! "You!"
Lucia gritted her teeth in anger and raised her fist to punch August in the and held her hand, saying in a deep voice, "Calm down!"
Lucia struggled with tears welling up involuntarily in her eyes and shouted hysterically at him, "Why...Why are you doing this to me? Why do you have to torture me? I’ve decided to start a new life.Why won’t you let me go?"
A hint of concern flickered in August’s eyes and his body tensed slightly.
To prevent her from hurting herself while struggling, he reached out and put his arm directly around her waist.
He looked down at her with a thin layer of had slept with her for the first time, he had thought about taking responsibility for her, and he hadn’t expected that they would get divorced afterward! Lucia’s
ears buzzed.
She was quiet for two seconds another woman.
Did he think she was that gullible? So, Paula was right.
He was a scumbag! As she struggled, she lost her balance by leaning back and fell with August into the couch behind her.
With the man on top of her, Lucia couldn’t move at all.
Their bodies were close together, and through the thin fabric, she could almost feel the burning heat from his body.
The muscles of his abdomen and thighs were tense and hard against her.
Both her hands were pinned to the couch, leaving her defenseless.
They were in his office.
If someone came to deliver papers now, they would see the two of them as soon as the door was opened! There was a feeling of indefinable ambiguity.
Lucia’s cheeks were red with anger and embarrassment.
She said in annoyance, "Get up, August!"
Looking at the woman her ear and asked in a deep voice, ’Are you sure you have no feelings for me, Lucia?"
Lucia gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Yes! I’ve never had feelings for you!"
"Really?” August looked calm, with a glint of light in his eyes.
"Yes!" other hand was freed to gently skim over her shoulder, move down and get to her breast accurately.
Lucia’s eyes widened in surprise and her body stiffened. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Instantly, she felt like a fire was burning inside.
Her face was extremely red and she stammered, "You...let go of me, you bastard!"
August came close to her ear and said in a deep voice, "You have no feelings for me? Then why are you turned on?"
This woman had always been so stubborn.
Hearing that, Lucia was so embarrassed that she just wanted to find a hole in the floor to hide in, "August you..."
She had never expected that he would do this to her in the office! August’s eyebrows were slightly knitted and he said in a sure tone, "You were lying, Lucia!"
He was sure that she had feelings for him! As he spoke, he lifted her chin, trying to kiss her.
Lucia turned her head hard to the side and said through clenched finished speaking.
August’s face darkened at the sound of the special ringtone.
He reached into his pocket and pulled out the phone.
It was Jeanne.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally pressed the answer button and put the phone to his ear.
"Hello?"
However, he kept holding Lucia’s wrists with his hand, with no intention to let them go.
