Chapter 65 – Making a scene in the office
If there is a line that Lucia cannot touch, it is definitely her son Theodore, and now, Arthur.
Wild man, wild seed?
Lucia took two steps closer to Poppy without saying a word, and the cold pools under her eyes were bottomless. When Poppy stared into her eyes, she had a sense of trembling locked in her pupils, and she unconsciously followed and stepped back, desperately suppressing her urge to ask ‘what do you want’.
Poppy, surprisingly, is afraid.
Once Lucia was weak and bullyable, but Poppy knows very well that the Lucia of today is definitely not the same as before.
“Poppy, watch your language,” Lucia said as she stood in front of Poppy, speaking with a coldness in her voice as she stared right into Poppy’s eyes and continued:
“Who is right and who is wrong, God knows, you know and I know, don’t be ridiculous to bluff in front of me, if you have to be bitter, then well, you first answer me a question, even if I really cheated in marriage, even if I really betrayed Jacob and was swept away by him, then you tell me, why in the end you will become the world’s best known Mrs. Shang?
If my information is correct, you and Jacob registered to get married at the end of the year I left, right?” Poppy, you’re pretty fast!
Lucia wants Poppy to answer the questions, how can she possibly answer them!
Outside the office, the crowd who had been eavesdropping secretly said a second! Lucia choked Poppy with a single question, especially Nia, and made a yay motion!
Lucia and Poppy are best friends, this is a well-known thing, but just in the year she and Jacob divorced, Jacob and Poppy together, so fast efficiency itself makes people suspicious, now Poppy to find fault with Lucia, is simply to dig their own pit to jump.
Poppy was choked for a long time, so long that Lucia suspected she was mute, before she stumbled and cursed:
“Lucia, don’t change the subject! What’s the point of bringing it up now, but what you’re doing now is under my Poppy’s nose. I advise you to stop hitting on Jacob, with me around, you won’t be able to tempt him!”
Poppy desperately tries to bring the conversation back to what is happening right now, but unfortunately Lucia is unmoved.
“Don’t make me laugh here like a clown,” Lucia snorted out directly, not hiding a trace of contempt in her eyes: “You know you can’t get any advantage from me, so have some self-awareness, okay?”
Poppy was called a clown, anger instantly ignited to the extreme, only to see her fiercely raised her hand to Lucia’s face, but just when the crowd outside the door thought Lucia would take her slap, fire and stone moment, Poppy’s hand was Lucia clasped in mid-air, then, she used the other hand backhanded to give Poppy a slap.
A crunching sound followed by a breathtaking silence.
Poppy unbelievably covered her red and painful cheeks, she
Tried to break free from Lucia’s restraints, but couldn’t move at all, when did Lucia’s strength become stronger?
You should know that she was a floppy-legged person who couldn’t even run 500 meters when she was in college.
Lucia clasped Poppy’s wrist, a cold smile frozen on her lips.
“How dare you …” Poppy had not finished her words when a second slap landed on the other side of her face again, and even harder.
Poppy this time is completely blindsided, to say the first slap is unbelievable, then this second slap directly to her to the soul scattered.
Lucia’s attitude is already very obvious, Poppy dares to say one more word, she can hit her until her face blossoms!
Continuing to tighten her grip on Poppy’s wrist, Lucia leaned down close to her, staring into her eyes with obvious fear, and gave a cold warning:
“Poppy, do you think I’m still the same handless Lucia? I advise you to mess with me less, and also, no making an issue of my son and Arthur, or else …”
Lucia’s pair of starry eyes, in the face of lovers and loved ones, friends, can be gentle, can be kind, can be soft, but in the face of enemies, can also burst out a chilling murderous aura!
Poppy suddenly felt that Lucia was crazy! How could Lucia make herself shudder with just a look, but as soon as she touched her eyes, Poppy was so scared that she averted her eyes.
She let go of Poppy’s grip and watched her stagger backwards due to her unstable center, and only when she had managed to stabilize herself did Lucia sneer:
“Roll, those two slaps just now, take it as compensation for your smashing my office, we are clear!”
Just as Lucia’s words were falling, there was a crisp applause at the office door. Poppy turned around and glared, just in time to see Nia drop her palm in vain, knowing that she could not get any benefit today, but she was not willing to run away in a mess.
So he turned back and bluffed and cursed ‘Lucia, we’ll see’ and left the office with his face covered, and deliberately bumped Nia’s shoulder when he walked to the door.
Looking at Poppy’s back, Nia suddenly felt that her worries were superfluous, and she ran excitedly into the office, with stars almost appearing in her eyes, and said to Lucia:
“lucy, you’re so good!”
Nia had always thought Lucia was sheepish, and although she was mentally strong enough, how could she have ever thought Lucia could have that physical ability to go back to kill.
“It’s nothing, just a little karate study along the way.” Lucia said with a smile.
“Karate?! What level?” Nia asked excitedly as it was the first time she knew Lucia knew karate.
“Black belt.” Lucia’s answer immediately elicited a scream from Nia.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
“My goodness, isn’t that the most powerful dan in karate?!” Nia didn’t expect the seemingly frail Lucia to have this
Strength, and then murmured in aggravation: “Loss I have been trying to protect you …”
It turns out that you have no strength …
“Nia, thank you.” Nia’s last words made Lucia feel incredibly warm.
When Lucia and Nia talking, Eduard came in, today he went out to meet an important partner, as soon as he returned to the company heard his subordinates report Lucia there was an accident, he immediately rushed over, so when he entered the door to see a mess, he rushed to Lucia asked:
“Lucia, are you okay?”
Before Lucia said anything, Nia began to excitedly recount her ‘heroic deeds’, Eduard listened to the reassurance, standing next to Lucia, also did not say anything, at first Nia did not react, and after nearly thirty seconds of silence, she clapped her hands and said loudly:
“Oops! I need to go get someone to clean up the office right away, manager, president, I’m going out first.”
Nia finished her sentence and ran away in a flash, cursing herself for being too slow to react.
Waiting for Nia to leave, Eduard asked Lucia: “Lucia, what’s going on with you and Arthur lately, and you went to see Jacob alone last night, is there something you can’t solve?”
