Chapter 286

Thinking of this, Lucia felt even happier. She raised the corner of her mouth and tilted her head slightly to look at August, "You still believe in me, right?"

August was stunned. Looking at the woman's smiling face, his heart tightened and beat fast.

Before he could answer, Lucia lowered her head, smiled, and said softly, "I understand. President Adams, if you

don't mind, I'll go and do my work first."

After that, she turned around and walked out of his office.

It was not until the door was closed that August came to his senses.

His heart was still beating wildly out of control, and the woman's bright smile kept sticking in his brain. That charming, lively, and inexplicably sweet... girl.

"Bang bang!"

There was a knock on the door, and Burton walked in quickly with a document in his hand. When he saw

August's expression, he suddenly exclaimed, "Mantis, you..."

August's tone was as cold as ever. He looked up at him, frowned impatiently, and asked, "What?" Burton hesitated for a moment and said, "Your face is particularly red. Do you have a fever?"

August's face darkened when he heard that.

Did he blush? Why would he blush?

He raised his eyes and looked at Burton gloomily, and asked, "Is that so?"

Burton nodded decisively and answered obtrusively, "Yes, it's really red, just like... When somebody is falling in love!"

Burton suddenly remembered Paula. Sometimes, when he was with her, he would indeed blush, just like his

president was now.

"What are you thinking about?" August frowned unhappily, grabbed a document next to him, and threw it at

Burton angrily.

Burton dodged quickly. He smiled embarrassedly and bent down to pick up the documents on the ground. "Mr. Adams, I'm just telling the truth..."

Recently, he had been in a relationship, so he was very clear about what a man would look like when he was in

love.

August noticed that there was something unusual with Burton recently, so he raised his eyebrows and asked,

"You and that Paula..."

He didn't ask much about it when Burton came back from Figo City the last time, but judging from his

performance, it was probably a good result.

As expected, Burton scratched the back of his head and admitted shyly, "We're dating now."

Hearing this, the light flashed through August's eyes, he hesitated and said lightly, "It's a good thing. It seems

that I shouldn't always let you work overtime in the future."

Burton smiled and answered, "Trust me, Mr. Adams, I won't let my date affect my working state."

August nodded and signed for him to leave.

After Burton left, August sat alone in the room, his thoughts in a mess.

He didn't expect that Burton would get a girlfriend earlier than him. Although he had a nominal girlfriend

Jeanne, he was getting more and more confused about whether the relationship they had was love or not.

He would love and take care of her like a younger sister, and he would accompany her when she was in pain. He

Figo City.

When they were talking about Burton Harris, Paula put down her phone and said, "Burton said that he was

busy and couldn't come. Recently, he seems to have been busy preparing for the engagement ceremony, so..." Paula suddenly realized what she was talking about and stopped, looking uneasily at Lucia.

When Lucia heard about the engagement ceremony, her heart also tightened in an instant. She bit her lip,

looked at Paula, and asked, "When will the engagement ceremony be?"

Paula regretted so much that she even wanted to slap herself, but as Lucia asked, she had to reply, "I heard

from Burton that it seems to be this Sunday."

Lucia was shocked and unconsciously clenched her fists.

There were only a few days left.

In the blink, August was going to become the groom of another woman.

There were some inexplicable emotions in her heart.

Paula asked tentatively, "Are you alright? Don't tell me you still care about him."

Lucia smiled and pretended to be relaxed, "What should I care about? It's a good thing. He's a good match for

Emily..."

"Really?" Paula reached out to hold her hand and asked seriously, "Do you mean it?"

She was her best friend.

How would she not see that Lucia still cared about him?
