Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Whoever strikes first will get the advantage Joshua's words indicated that Ethan did show up again.

August was stunned a little.He leaned back against his chair slightly and narrowed his eyes, said coldly, "Report the latest news about him."

Hearing that, Joshua frowned instantly.

"August, you know this is a violation of discipline."

It seemed that August knew that Joshua would say something like that, he said in a flat tone, "You know that, even if you don't tell me now, I will know it in the end."

Hearing that, Joshua was a little angry.

"What do you want to do? Even if I tell you where he is now, what are you going to do?"

August fell silent and didn't say anything more.

Since he didn't defeat Ethan completely five years ago, August knew clearly that Ethan now was like a time bomb that would explode anytime and hurt him.

Now, since Ethan showed up again in Austos City, August thought that Ethan had been watching him all the time without a doubt.

Since he didn't know where Ethan was but Ethan knew about him clearly, August thought Ethan would take revenge on him anyway.

Whoever strikes first will get the advantage.

August looked at Joshua with mixed looked in his eyes.

"We both know clearly what kind of person he is.I might be killed by him tomorrow or other days."

Hearing August's very cold words, Joshua shivered inexplicably.

Actually, August was right.

Ethan was insidious and vengeful.He would definitely take revenge on August since he was defeated by August that very year.

Joshua picked the glass up and poured a glass full of wine himself, drinking off it.

The spicy liquid passed through the throat and chilled the stomach instantly.

Joshua frowned.He put the glass on the table hard and looked at August.

"August, I will give you the information about him ..."

When Joshua didn't finish speaking yet, August already understood what he was going to say and nodded.

"I got it."

Then August patted Joshua on the shoulder.

"Don’t worry.I won't make it hard for you."

Joshua didn't respond.

But then he suddenly thought of something.He looked at August and said, "Why don't you go to see Flynt? Talk to him about the things and apologize to him."

As soon as Joshua said that, the atmosphere turned from relaxed to cold.

August didn’t respond.

Although he had a careless look on his face, nobody dared to say one word in front of him.

In the end, August took his hand back and stood up.

"I don’t regret it."

After saying that, August walked toward the door and left one more word before he left.

"I got other things to do, gotta go."

To save Lucia, August suffered a lot of pain five years ago, but he still didn't regret it now.

Seeing August's figure disappear in the door, Joshua had mixed looks in his eyes.

After leaving, August arrived at the company.He had a simple video meeting and signed a lot of contracts.

Unconsciously, it was almost evening.

When it was time to get off, August finished his job.He looked up at the sky outside the window, and then he realized it was almost toward evening.

The city was heavy traffic on the street.

August considered nightfall to be the most relaxing time.

But at that moment, someone suddenly opened the office door.

Burton came in quickly and said anxiously, "President Adams, there is an emergency."

August turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Someone in the wedding house sent us a message.Ms.Kelly slashed her wrists."

"What?"

August stiffened.

"Which hospital?"

Then he strode to the door.

"In the People’s Hospital."

When they got to the first floor, the car was waiting for them at the entrance.

But it was rush hour and there was a traffic jam on the main road of the street in front of the company.

After a long time, they finally arrived at the hospital.

Jeanne was resuscitated and taken to the care unit for observation.

"Sorry, sir.The patient said that she wants to stay alone.She doesn't want to be disturbed."

A nurse stopped August at the door of the care unit.

August frowned and his face was gloomy.

Hearing that, Burton looked at August and said, "President Adams, I'll call the director of the hospital."

Then Burton took out his cell phone and intended to dial.

Hearing that, the nurse was afraid and her face was pale.She could feel that August was a powerful man by looking at his appearance.

And now she heard that they were going to call the director of the hospital, she was even more afraid.

She didn’t dare to disturb the director of the hospital because of the little things.

The nurse stepped back and said, "Please don’t ..."

"You can go in."

Hearing that, Burton opened the door immediately.

Without hesitation, August walked in directly.

As soon as he came in, August saw Jeanne lying on the bed.

Her face was pale Seeing August who stood in the doorway, Jeanne cried instantly.

"August ..."

Instantly, August suddenly remembered Jeanne was as pale and fragile as she was now when she was ill and lying on the bed for a long time before.

August's hard heart suddenly softened when he remembered Jeanne always stuck with him in childhood.He stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Don't move."

As he was saying that, August glanced at Jeanne’s bandaged hand.He frowned and took a deep breath.

"Why would you do such a stupid thing?"

There was a little blame in August's words, but he didn't dare to blame Jeanne too much.He was afraid to scare her.

Jeanne couldn't stop crying.She reached out her hand and held August's hand softly.

"August, why don't you trust me?"

"I don't know anything and I haven't done anything.Why don't you trust me? "From the beginning to the end, everything I have done is for you.I try to be obedient, I try to please you, I try to be your good wife, but you keep moving away from me, and I cant even catch up ...

Jeanne almost couldn't pant when she was crying and saying those to August.She looked very pathetic.

Seeing that, August felt heartbroken hard.

All the memories appeared in August's mind like a flood and he almost couldn't speak.

"August, I know that you and Lucia were once in a relationship, but now I am the one who is with you.She has her own family, you have your own family.We can live a good life without disturbing each other ..." Jeanne said as she cried.

She shivered and looked very aggrieved.

Hearing that, August felt like his heart was clogged with something, making him feel very uncomfortable.

He felt resigned, heartbroken, and more than anything else, mixed.

August took two pieces of tissues and dried her tears on her cheek, whispering, "Sorry, I have wronged you.I was just too anxious for a truth ..."

Mark was Jeanne’s previous loyal subordinate, and now that he got out of prison and always showed up where Lucia was.

August couldn't help but doubt Jeanne.

"August, you know that I just want to be with you, I don’t care about anyone but you ..."

Jeanne's heartfelt confession slowly melted the ice on the outside of August's heart.

August held Jeanne’s hand tightly.He frowned and said deeply, "Sorry, it's my fault."

Jeanne cried for a long time.

Then she felt tired and shrank her body on the hospital bed, falling asleep.

August sat on the edge of the bed and stared at Jeanne for a long time.

It was getting dark outside.

August looked at Jeanne's slender wrist which was wrapped in a thick layer of gauze, and his suspicion of Jeanne disappeared slowly.

To prove her innocence, Jeanne was willing to put her life on the line.

It seemed that he was really wrong about her this time.
