She Was An Innocent-looking Bitch
Paula was startled and subconsciously shouted, "Lucia, you are injured!"
Lucia lowered her head, glanced at her elbow, and said lightly, "I accidentally rubbed it when I fell just
now.It's alright."
"It's alright? No, it's going to get infected!"
Paula's face became serious, and she immediately took Lucia away, "l remember there is a small clinic
nearby.I'll take you to bandage it"
Lucia couldn't refuse, so she had to go with Paula.
Along the way, Paula kept talking.
When she got to the clinic and saw the doctor, she calmed down a bit.
The wound was simply bandaged, and then the doctor prescribed ointment and gauze and instructed
her to change the dressing on time.
After taking the medicine, Lucia and Paula left the clinic together.
"Lucia, I thought about it just now.I don't think you accidentally fell.Don't you think Jeanne did it on
purpose? Look at the way she huddled in August's arms just now.She was an innocent-looking bitch."
Hearing this, Lucia took a deep breath and said softly, "I don't think she did it on purpose.Maybe it was
just an accident."
"Accident? Lucia, you are so naive!"
Paula disagreed, "Anyway, I don't think Jeanne is that simple.You have to be careful."
Lucia took Paula's arm and laughed softly, "I know, Paula."
This was not the first time Paula had said this in front of her.
But in her impression, Jeanne was generous and gentle, not like a scheming girl.
Forget it.
She wouldn't think about it anymore.She and Jeanne wouldn't have any intersection in the future
anyway.
Back at the apartment, it was getting late and Lucia hurried to wash up and go to bed without setting
the alarm clock.
The next morning, when she woke up, she opened her eyes and suddenly realized that it was getting
late.
So she hurriedly got up and went to the company.She had planned to ask for leave today.
If she ate breakfast, she was afraid it would make the supervisor unhappy, and it would be even more
difficult to approve her leave.
When Lucia thought about it, she was even more anxious.She rushed to the company in a hurry.
When she ran to the elevator entrance, there happened to be an elevator just going up.She glanced at
her watch and found there were only five minutes left.She became even more anxious.
Just when she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, the sound of footsteps suddenly came
from behind her.She didn't care, and focused on the rising number of the elevator, feeling so agitated.
At this moment, a cold voice came from the side, "Let's go up together."
As soon as Lucia turned her head, she saw August standing at the entrance of the elevator reserved
for the president and staring at her with deep eyes.Her heart tightened, and she subconsciously
wanted to say no.
But when she scanned the watch, she gritted her teeth and walked over.
It was just two minutes, and it would be over soon.
After they got on the elevator, the elevator door slowly closed.
In a closed space alone with August, Lucia felt a little nervous unknowingly.
August lowered his eyes, and accidentally looked at her arm.
His eyes finally stopped at the cuff of her shirt.
A small section of her arm was wrapped with gauze.
It looked like she was injured.He subconsciously frowned.
After two seconds, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with your hand?"
When Lucia heard his words, her body tightened.
She quickly shrank her hand, raised her hand, and pulled her sleeve to cover the gauze, "It's okay.I
accidentally hurt my arm."
Hearing this, August blinked lightly.His eyes were dark and unclear.
Lucia took a deep breath, feeling nervous and guilty.
For fear that August would continue to ask questions, she turned to him and asked, "Miss Kelly...how is
she?"
When August heard Jeanne's name, his face changed slightly, and he thought of the words Jeanne
had said in the car last night, "August, actually Ms.Mitchell tripped me and I fell, but she didn't mean
it..."
His eyes darkened a bit and he raised his eyes to look at Lucia.
Seeing that her face was calm without any hesitation, he said, "She's fine."
Lucia breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "That's good."
At this moment, the elevator door opened and it arrived at the floor where Lucia worked.
She bowed slightly towards August before she quickly got off the elevator and ran to the office area.
She ran to the attendance machine quickly, but Lisa suddenly appeared, stopped her, and asked,
"Ms.Mitchell, have you handed in the quarterly report?"
"It's been handed in."
Lucia was so anxious that she wanted to avoid her.
But Lisa was unrelenting and continued to block her, "But why didn't I see it?"
Lucia took a deep breath, looked at her intently, and said word by word, "I gave it to the supervisor
directly."
When Lisa heard this, she didn't say anything.
Lucia walked around her and ran to the attendance machine.
But it was just past nine o'clock.
She did the face recognition and the machine reported, "You're late!"
Lucia frowned tightly and felt a little annoyed.
If Lisa hadn't stopped her, she wouldn't be late! Being late and deducting wages was a trivial matter.
But if it affected her request for leave, it would be difficult to handle! But when it rains, it pours.
Less than half an hour after the leave application was submitted, she received a notice from her
supervisor, "Ms.Mitchell, come to my office."
Lucia gasped, agreed, and headed to the supervisor's office.
Walking into the office, she looked at Carter sitting at the desk and felt a little uneasy, "Carter."
Carter raised her chin at her and said, "Sit down."
As soon as Lucia sat down, Carter asked, "Are you going to take five days off?"
in Lucia took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, met her eyes, and said, "Yes, my dad is having an
operation, and I want to stay by his side."
Before the operation, during the operation, and after the operation, she would accompany her father
during the whole process, which would take several days.
In her mind, her family came first, so she naturally wanted to take leave.
Carter's face became serious and she said, "It's okay to ask for leave, but do you know how many
times you've been late and left early in the past half month?"
Lucia wrung her hands, feeling a little uneasy.She was late this time today.She was late once last
week.She had run to stop August's car and disappeared for an afternoon days ago.
In total, there were indeed several times.
"Lucia, you've worked very hard and seriously, but these are facts you can't deny.I'm sorry.I can't give
you the leave."
Carter pushed her to leave the application in front of her.
Lucia gritted her teeth and understood.
The company did have such requirements.
Leave of more than three days was subject to some conditions.
Carter glanced at her and said softly, "If you need it, you can apply for it again.If the superior approves
it, I won't object."
"I see.Thank you, Carter.Lucia walked out of her office, a little disappointed.It seemed there was
nothing she could do.Could it be that now she could only ask August for leave? After thinking about it,
Lucia didn't think of a better idea.
In the end, she had to muster up her courage and plan to go to August to talk about the leave.
In the afternoon, Lucia went to the President's Office and was hesitating whether to knock on the door
or not when Mary suddenly came over and asked, "Are you here to see Mr.Adams?"
Lucia nodded.
Mary said in a businesslike manner, "Mr.Adams isn't here now, and he probably won't be back
today.Come back tomorrow."
Hearing this, Lucia nodded hesitantly, turned around, and walked slowly toward the elevator.
At the fire exit of the stairs not far away, a man looked over seemingly inadvertently.
He looked at Lucia with a gloomy look in his eyes.
Then he turned around and disappeared at the entrance of the stairs.
