Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom

Chapter 422

Chapter 422 Audit

The public welfare short video officially started shooting in the next week.

All work was carried out in an orderly way.

To speed up while ensuring quality, Lucia spent every day with the crew.She would sometimes bring the kids to the crew so that she could take care of them.She had a fulfilling life.

Lucia didn't see August for the entire week.

But she could always see him on news about Austos City.He would either be attending an exchange meeting, or cutting the ribbon at the opening ceremony of a new brand.He was quite a "businessman".

Lucia flipped through news headlines on her phone with the unwitting purpose to find August in the sea of news.

At this moment, Director Brook came to her and said, "Lucia, we'll go to Lion Group to meet President Adams today, A short meeting."

Lucia put her phone away.

"To Lion Group?"

Director Brook nodded.

"Yes.President Adams is too busy.He managed to spare one and a half hours to meet with us."Lucia hesitated, but she finally accepted, "Okay."

Since it was an order from the boss, she couldn't reject it.

Just at two o'clock in the afternoon, Lucia and Director Brook arrived at Lion Group.

After meeting an assistant, they were led to the new conference room of Lion.

The new conference room was spacious and had excellent natural lighting.

It had arc-shaped ceiling-to-floor glass on three sides except for the side with the entrance.

The brown glass looked stylish and splendid.

As they sat down, Director Brook couldn't help exclaiming, "Time has changed.Lion now is really the greatest financial group in Austos."

Lucia smiled silently.

As she heard Director Brook describing the achievements of Lion in the past few years, she had more respect for August.She had to admit that, under August's flag, Lion developed and expanded its industries.

Lion not only invested in traditional industries like real estate and financial business, but also in beauty makeup, clothing, filming and even emerging industries like artificial intelligence.

All these industries were striving under Lion Group, which proved how powerful Lion was.

At this moment, hasty footsteps were heard from the entrance.

The assistant who just led them in came in with a wry expression.

"Mr.Brook, Ms.Mitchell, there is an emergency.You might have to wait longer.

She looked apologetic and said hesitantly, "The conference room needs to be used..."

As she finished speaking, they heard flustered footsteps approaching.

Director Brook asked, "Where should we be waiting?"

The assistant looked embarrassed and seemed to be at a loss as to what to do.

If they went out now, they would definitely confront those people coming in.

The assistant perceived that it would be better if they could avoid whoever was coming into such a terrible situation.

The assistant pondered for a while.

When she saw a glass door, she had an idea.

She said, "Please follow me."

Lucia and Director Brook followed her.

The assistant walked to one side of the glasses and pressed a button.

A glass door was slowly opened.

There was a small meeting room that was warm and cozy.

It was adjacent to one side of the glasses of the conference room.

"Please wait here for a while."

Lucia nodded and watched the assistant left.

The inner meeting room was comfortable.

Its decoration and designs seemed to be modern.

Director Brook said excitedly, "I heard that this room is designed by a tech company under Lion.It is equipped with the best Al system.I didn't expect that I could experience it today."

Hearing this, Lucia smiled.

As she looked around, she found a remote controller on the sofa.

Out of curiosity, she picked it up.

It was different from ordinary remote controllers for air-conditioners or TV.

It had a metal control panel and a small screen.

In her curiosity, she pressed a button on it.

Unexpectedly, the glass opposite the sofa produced a "click" and, slowly, the brown of the glass faded away and glass became transparent.

They could see clearly what was happening in the conference room.

Lucia was shocked and subconsciously turned to Director Brook.

Director Brook was also surprised.

They exchanged eyes and looked towards the conference room in unison.

There had been several people in the conference room.

August naturally sat on the master's seat.

Several men in suits were sitting beside him, who all looked serious and were leafing through the documents in their hands.

August looked grim and terrifyingly cold.He said deeply, "Audit and check every one of them!"

Lucia then found a tiny device beside each side of the sofa she was sitting on.

The devices could receive voice from the main conference room.She suddenly realized that this was no meeting room.It was a monitor room, and the glass was one-side glass.

They could see and hear clearly what was happening in the conference room.

They were like holding court from behind a screen.

Lucia gave a gasp and looked somewhat embarrassedly at Director Brook.She wanted to say something when the noise came from the conference room.

The door of the conference room was pushed open.

Then, Bishop, with Bob helping him push the wheelchair, entered.

Several men in black followed them.

Lucia could feel the subtle changes in the conference room.

Bob placed Bishop at the position opposite to August.

The men in black stood on both sides of Bishop, making him look more domineering.

They were confronting each other.

Lucia gasped.

She had forgotten what she had intended to say to the director, and focused on the conference room.She was so nervous.

Bishop didn't look so gentle as usual.

On his wheelchair, he looked grim and distant.

"August, you think it funny?"

August looked up indifferently, "What? You think you can’t stand an audit?"

Bishop kept his back straight and said coldly, "Without a hint, you took the branch company's ledger away.Don't you think it is barefaced humiliation to me? How would I run the company in the future, huh?"

August snorted, "I did so, which meant that I have enough evidence.I never do things I am not sure about."

Bishop wasn't daunted.

"Evidence? Come on.Show us." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

August didn't relent.

He ordered, "Check the accounts carefully.We'll see soon how much is missing exactly.I can afford the time."

For a time, the two men looked at each other.

Fire of rage was flaming in both of them.

Lucia almost held her breath in nervousness.

She somehow felt so nervous along with them.

The conference was shrouded in dead silence.

Only the "click" of clock could be sounded.

After a God-knows-how-long while, the men finally stopped what they were doing and turned to laptop to August.

"President, all checked."

The tension was mounting.

August took the laptop and ran his eyes over its screen.

Gradually, his face got darker and darker.

At last, he picked up the ledger and threw it in front of Bishop without hesitation.

He said coldly, "See for yourself."
