Chapter 436 Betrayed? 

As soon as Lucia raised her head, she met the man's gaze with a bit of suspicion, she took a deep breath and 

said, "Nicole was indeed recruited by me, and I am also to blame for not knowing everything about her 

beforehand..." 

August's furrowed his brows. "From where or how did you recruit her?" 

If Lucia really did not know, then maybe there were others who were secretly pulling strings. 

After hearing those words, Lucia's clenched her fists. She was in a tight spot. 

Nicole was introduced to her by Jonathan, if she said it, wouldn't she be throwing all the blame on Jonathan? 

But this was something that she didn't think he did. 

With that thought in mind, Lucia moved her lips, met August's probing gaze, and replied word for word, "It's 

not very convenient to say." 

Those words instantly made August's face darken. 

The director sitting next to them was equally stunned, he also didn't expect Lucia to say this. After all, this 

would not only fail to assist the investigation, but also increase her own suspicion. 

It just wasn't worth it. 

Except that she was trying to cover for someone. 

Seeing that the atmosphere was cold and the room was getting more and more silent, Director Brook laughed 

lightly twice and hurriedly advised, "President Adams, at this point, the most important thing we should 

think about is to suppress those unfavorable remarks against Lion Group" 

August kept on frowning, his gaze looked straight at Lucia, pausing for a moment, before moving his gaze 

away and saying in a light voice, "Well, Director Brook, there is something that I want to you to do..." 

Saying that, he turned his head to look at Director Brook, assigning him the task. 

Director Brook responded and quickly, got up and left the lounge. 

Before the door was closed, Burton suddenly stepped in, walked to the side of August, and whispered
