The meeting began at last. Ted had to make a speech as the Vice President of the company who had just been transferred back. Sitting there, Lucia raised her eyes and looked at the man standing at the head of the table talking eloquently, with mixed feelings. "Well, that's what I have to say. Now, let's get down to business. I just came to the company and know little about the departments. Supervisors, please tell me in turn what projects and which parts of them your department is working on sol can learn about them.” When Ted said that, the department supervisors took turns to stand up and report the details. Lucia kept drifting away while she recorded the key points Her mind was filled with questions, and she hadn't found an answer when the department supervisors almost finished their reports.
Before she knew it, the meeting came to an end. Ted stood up with his eyes shining. He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I just got a brief understanding today. After the meeting, each department will hand in a departmental task report. You can just give it to Lucia, my temporary assistant.” Noticing their gaze at her, Lucia came back to her senses and kept silent without saying anything. "Okay, if no further questions, let's break up the meeting.” With these words, Ted stepped out of the meeting room. Seeing that people from various departments got up, gathered together, and whispered to each other in groups of two or
three. Most of them were talking about Mr. Stebbing. "Hey, why do I feel that Mr. Stebbing doesn't consider Mr. Adams at all? I heard that he called this meeting on an ad hoc basis."
"Really? No wonder we were all informed on short notice.” "Who knows? I heard that Mr. Stebbing worked for Old Mr. Adams and that he's very tough!" ®
was true that Ted had a problem with August as the rumors said, then why would he have to involve her in it?
"Get out of my way! Where's Ted, the old goat? Where is he?" Lucia had just walked to the door of the meeting room. At the sound of the voice, she immediately looked up and saw a woman dressed in a luxurious manner screaming and shouting among those people from various departments who had not yet dispersed. When the woman saw that no one answered her as she asked around, her face turned red with anger and she yelled hysterically, "Who is Lucia? Tell me, who is Lucia
The crowd was stunned and turned to Lucia in unison while those who were in front of stomped angrily toward Lucia in her high heels. "You are Lucia?" Lucia was slightly stunned and nodded. "Yes. What can I do for." ®
"Bitch, you're so shameless! Were you born to be a vamp? Why do you have to seduce a married man when you can be a good girl?"'®
If she remembered correctly, this was the first time she had met this woman
The woman was so aggressive that she had to shout at the top of her voice. "You didn't offend me? Bitch! You seduced my woman, she took a deep breath and defended herself. "No, I didn't!" "You didn't?" The woman's face was red. She reached into the bag on her arm, took out a stack of pictures, and threw them at
Lucia's face ruthlessly. With a swish, the hard edges of the pictures hit Lucia's face so hard that she snapped out of it in pain. The crowd gasped. Lucia looked down at the of Ted's body leaning on hers, and their faces were clearly shown! The pictures had been taken at the Austos International last night! Lucia gritted her teeth. She was and hastily started to explain. "It's... definitely not what you think. Mr. Stebbing stepped back and looked at her with suspicion more or less. After all, Ted's attitude towards her was quite unusual in the meeting room just now. The woman, who stood in front of Lucia, stretched out her hand, grabbed Lucia's clothes, and pulled it hard, saying fiercely, "Will a vamp admit that she is a mistress?"
Lucia was wearing a white shirt. The woman had pulled it so hard that the buttons around her neckline came undone. She broke away from the woman's hand and quickly explained, "I have nothing to do with Mr. Stebbing!" "I don't believe you!"
The woman was furious, pulling and kicking. She lfted her foot and kicked Lucia hard in the knee.
As the sharp pain spread across her knee, Lucia gasped and almost fell to the floor when her calf went weak. She gritted her teeth, Feeling a surge of anger, she raised her eyes and looked at the woman, saying in 2 louder voice, "I have nothing to do with him!" Emma pushed her way into the crowd and hastily helped Lucia up as she spoke up. "How could you hit her when things aren't clear?” Seeing that someone was speaking up for Lucia, the woman flew into a rage. She approached them aggressively and glared at them fiercely, saying, Not ciear? Dorit you see those pictures? Ask her i she is the woman in the pictures!” Hearing that, the crowd immediately quieted down. They all looked at Lucia with curiosity and suspicion as well as some meaningful mockery and her, Lucial* Lucia took a deep breath and found herself speechless. She was the woman in the pictures and the one who had reached
at hr fiercely. “Finally, you admit it! How shameless..” She was 50 angry that she face. It was so close that Luci couldn't dodge it and subconsciously closed her eyes!
