Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Irene’s face instantly turned pale when she heard that.

If she left, all her efforts over the years would have been in vain.

But what would happen to her if she finished the carton of mangoes? On the side, Mary had no idea what Irene had done wrong.

She just watched them, holding her breath.

"Mr.Adams, I’m really sorry, but I just wanted to teach her a lesson for you.

I was doing it for your sake!"

August’s expression remained unchanged as if he hadn’t heard her words at all.

Burton next to him looked at Irene and warned her.

"Scott, Mr.Adams doesn’t have much time."

Irene wanted to cry.

She looked at the whole carton of mangoes in front of her and hesitated.

But after all, she couldn’t give up her efforts over the years, so she grabbed a mango with her body trembling slightly August kept a gloomy look, making it clear that there was no room for negotiation.

Seeing that, Irene had no choice but to peel the mango and start eating it.

Her hands were covered with the juice of the mango.

However, she couldn’t care about her image and face now as she peeled and ate the mangoes one after another.

Her tears welled up when she ate the third one.

Her hands and mouth were all stained with mangoes and she was in a mess.

August gave her a cold glance with no intention of stopping her.

Irene had no choice but to pick up the mangoes and mechanically stuff them into her mouth one by one.

Mary could not stand watching it anymore. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

She gingerly walked up and advised, "Mr.Adams, what the hell is going on here? Scott has been working in the president’s office for years.

How can you…"

August glanced at her and said lightly, "If you feel sorry for her, just help her eat some."

Hearing that, Mary instantly turned pale and stopped before she could finish what she was trying to say.

Irene heard August’s words and realized that there was no more room to turn around at this point, so she just had to stuff the mangoes into her mouth silently.

After quite a while, Irene finished half of the mangoes and it was a mess there.

1 August took a look at the half-empty carton and had an idea in his mind.

He instructed Mary in a deep voice, "See that she finishes them."

After that, he turned around and stepped outside.

Burton followed him quickly.

They had just walked out of the office door when they heard the sound of Irene vomiting in the room as if she was going to vomit out all her internal organs.

Looking at Irene like this, Mary was both scared and worried.

"Irene, you can’t eat anymore.

If you keep eating, something will happen!"

Irene’s shoulders shook.

Her eyes were filled with tears because of her nausea.

She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, hating and regretting.

She had worked for August for long enough to know that if she didn’t finish the mangoes, he would definitely do what he said and kick her out.

But she couldn’t accept it.

She had worked at the Lion Group for years to obtain the experience and position she had now.

She simply couldn’t afford to lose it, so she wouldn’t give up.

She gritted her teeth, grabbed a mango, and peeled it before she stuffed it hard into her mouth.

Mary reached out to stop Irene immediately.

"Irene, you can’t eat anymore!"

Irene shook off Mary’s hand.

"Leave me alone!"

Just then, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the doorway.

She looked up and saw Burton standing there.

"Harris…"

Burton delivered the message seriously.

"Mr.Adams said that you don’t have to eat the rest, but you should keep this lesson in mind."

Hearing that, Irene nodded repeatedly without hesitation.

"I-I will! I won’t do it again!"

Burton suddenly said, "But you have to take the blame for spreading rumors and disturbing the order."

Before Irene said anything.

Mary couldn’t help but fight for her, "Harris, why do you blame Irene for this?"

Hearing that, Burton stared at Irene nonchalantly, curled his lips, and said, "What have you done, Scott? Do you want me to remind you?"

The moment these words came out, Irene’s heart sank.

The cold and sweet stuff in her stomach tumbled and jerked.

She was about to throw up as she shook.

II turned out that August had known everything.

She was the one who had mixed mango juice into Lucia’s juice and who had sent the pictures taken secretly into the group in the first place.

And August knew all about it quite well 2 Ten minutes later, Irene was taken to the hospital, accompanied by Mary.

Soon, the news spread through the company Everyone knew that Irene had been punished by August for spreading rumors.

It came as a warning to all of them.

No one dared to gossip anymore, and they were silent about the previous incident.

Meanwhile, Lucia was lying on the hospital bed, thinking about her appointment with Bennett Martin.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated and she received a WeChat message from Emma "Lucia, did you hear about it? Irene from the president’s office has been punished.

She is the one who was spreading rumors everywhere, and your allergies seem to have something to do with her too."

Seeing that, Lucia was confused.

How could her allergies have been the handiwork of Irene? Irene was from the president’s office.

People from all departments would show her some respect, and the only one who could punish her was August, right? Lucia sighed and put all these tedious things behind her.

When she saw that the injection was finished, she immediately called the nurse to remove the needle.

Lucia pressed the cotton ball against the needle hole and asked the nurse, "Do I need to do any more procedures if I’m discharged?"

The nurse nodded.

"Yes, but Mr.Adams said specifically before he left that you should rest and not be in a hurry 10 be discharged."

Not in a hurry to be discharged? She had an appointment with Bennett.

If she missed this opportunity, she didn’t know if she could get another appointment next time.

Lucia got out of bed and casually packed her things together.

"I feel much better and it doesn’t itch much now.

I still have some urgent business, so I can’t stay long…"

With that, she took her things and walked out of the ward against the nurse’s advice.

The nurse couldn’t stop or catch up with Lucia.

She got so anxious and hurriedly dialed a phone number.

"Hello, Harris? Miss Mitchell from Bed 26 has just left the hospital.

I couldn’t stop her!"

Lucia came out of the hospital, directly hailed a taxi, and rushed to the place where she had an appointment with Bennett She was still a few minutes late when she hurried to her destination.

Lucia ran all the way and when she saw Bennett, she quickly apologized.

"Mr.Martin, sorry, I’m late."

Bennett didn’t mind that and waved his hand.

"Have a seat."

The two of them sat down.

After greetings, they got straight to the point and talked directly about their cooperation 3 The only thing left to do was for both parties to sign after they had agreed on everything.

Bennett looked up at Lucia and smiled.

"Lucia, why don’t we have dinner together tonight so that I can show my gratitude to you?"

Last time, thanks to Lucia, he didn’t fall into the trap of the villain! Lucia smiled and politely declined, "You’ve already shown your gratitude to me by accepting this order, Mr.Martin.

We don’t need to have dinner, but if there is any need in the future, I will definitely think of you first "Alright then."

Bennett was quite straightforward.

He took a pen and signed his name "Well deliver the gift boxes on time.

Please rest assured, Lucia."

Lucia nodded and tried to say something else when the phone in her pocket suddenly rang She pulled it out and saw that it was August! Did he know that she had left the hospital early?
