Chapter 238: What a Messy Circle
Lucas Hughes saw Alexander Johnson thunderously furious. Kneeling on the ground, he didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
After all, he was the instigator, the mastermind behind it all.
Meanwhile, Chloe Simpson, who was sitting inside the conference room, heard the commotion and thought Alexander had done something to Lucas. She immediately got up and ran in frantically.
"Alexander Johnson, what are you doing?"
As soon as she entered, Chloe saw Lucas kneeling on the ground and noticed shards of a glass cup Alexander had smashed scattered across the floor. She shouted at Alexander and hurried to check if Lucas was injured.
"Lucas, are you okay? Let me check."
"I’m fine, Chloe, I’m fine. Director Johnson didn’t lose his temper at me. He was just furious after seeing the trending news. You’ve misunderstood him."
Lucas quickly explained.
Truth be told, he really didn’t want to speak on Alexander’s behalf. But he was genuinely scared, knowing that if he didn’t say something nice, Alexander’s wrath might turn on him.
He knew he was no match for Alexander—not even close. He couldn’t even compare to one of Alexander’s pinky fingers.
