Chapter 053

After August tied their feet with a rope, Burton immediately went up and took the rope to tie their hands together again.

Suddenly, a low voice rang in her ears, “Give me your hand.” Lucia froze, and the next, her hand was being held by August. It was the first time August had held her hand in front of so many people! “Ah!”

The screams and discontent of the female colleagues next to her came over like a flood.

Lucia forced herself to resist the urge to laugh. Looking at the red ropes tied to their hands, she was so happy that she was

After adjusting their state, the crowd stood behind the starting line. With Guy’s command of three, two, and one, the

But she just had a fever a few days ago and he was worried that she would not be able to stand the cold. There were whispers from the female colleagues nearby, “Mr. Adams is going to be punished because of Lucia! She’s so stupid!” “Yeah! I thought Mr. Adams would win, but I didn’t expect...” When she heard this, Lucia felt a bit of remorse, because she did hold August back during the race just

Being splashed with two buckets of water in public, he would definitely feel very humiliated. But August picked up a towel and wiped his face, then looked at the crowd, with a smile in his eyes, “Since I lost, I have to accept my punishment. You guys keep playing and I’ll go back to change my clothes.” The crowd laughed at these words and were relaxed again. They didn’t expect the cold-faced president to have such a side.
