She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1008

After Casper left, Miles slipped to the ground, tears streaming down his face. He was overwhelmed with emotions.
Meanwhile, in Athegate, Leon had just finished recording the real Casper's voice without him knowing. It turned out that Casper had planned for this all along - he knew that he might need it in the future.
"Wow, our boss is really smart," Leon praised. Little did he know that Libby had witnessed everything.
Casper had entrusted Libby to Leon before leaving Athegate. Since Libby rarely left the apartment, he stayed with her in Nia's apartment. When Casper needed to play back the recording of his voice later on, Leon didn't think twice about doing it in their shared space. Unfortunately for him though, Libby happened to walk by at just the wrong moment.
Libby was shocked and confused as she watched Leon listen to a recording of her son crying for help from earlier on. She couldn't understand why or how this could have happened - who was listening? Why did Casper record this?
Although she couldn't make sense of it all at first glance, when Leon walked out of the room, she quickly retreated back into her own space so as not be seen by him.
Five days later, news spread throughout Athegate that StandHill had won a major bid over Webbex Group at an auction event.
StandHill was known for being very high profile but nobody expected them to win against Webbex Group single-handedly like they did! This sudden surge in strength caused quite a stir among people who began speculating about what could have been behind their success.
At the end of bidding event, many people followed behind Casper whispering amongst themselves,
"Casper must be doing this because he still holds a grudge against Lucia and Nia working together."
"Even if it's intentional, there is no way StandHill can compete with Webbex Group alone - there must be someone pulling strings behind them."
"What kind of person would do something like this? Maybe his father is involved somehow..."
"That's right! Did you see how much trouble he went through during bidding? If Miles hadn't backed him up, do you think he would've dared?"
Casper heard every word spoken about him but didn't react negatively because today he won!
Lucia and her assistant were walking slowly ahead when suddenly Casper caught up with them saying, "Ms. Webb I'm sorry I didn't give you any face during bidding earlier today, but honestly speaking, I really liked that project."
Lucia stopped in her tracks at Casper's words. She had promised Arthur that she wouldn't have any contact with him, but it seemed like she couldn't avoid it now.
Turning around, Lucia stared into Casper's eyes as if trying to see through him.
He noticed Lucia staring at him without saying a word. He was the one who had intentionally provoked her, but he also felt uneasy about the situation.
Why was she looking at him like that?
"What's wrong? Ms. Webb, you don't recognize me after a few days?" Casper eagerly broke the silence.
Lucia's eyes flickered and she spoke softly, "Of course I recognize you."
But she was not sure if he was really whom he said he was!
Casper felt strange about how Lucia was looking at him and hesitated for a moment before he could even say goodbye. But before he could speak, Lucia said calmly,
"StandHill won this project fair and square. You don't need to apologize for anything, Mr. Wood. Besides, we still have a business relationship as you mentioned earlier so there is nothing wrong with your company winning."
After speaking these words, Lucia turned away from Casper, while Casper breathed a sigh of relief and smiled,
"Ms. Webb, you're right! StandHill is great! And your investment will naturally bring returns!"
Lucia nodded slightly then said, "We'll be leaving now." With that statement, they left without hesitation or further discussion. Casper didn't dare go after them.
As they walked out of the bidding venue, Gracie couldn't help but express her thoughts on what just happened,
"Ms. Webb, StandHill clearly wants to compete against us right? We've been preparing for this project for so long..."
She thought it was such a pity but what puzzled her most was why Lucia acted like this.
"And when StandHill revealed their trump card just now, we could have taken advantage of them... Why did we..."
"I just wanted to see if they were really capable enough to take on this project," explained Lucia with a smile, "It's only one project after all; there's no harm in using it as an opportunity to understand people better."
Gracie finally understood what Lucia meant by doing things differently than expected.
"Now that I know his intentions clearly," continued Lucia instructing Gracie, "If he comes back again in future, please let reception handle his requests."
"Understood," replied Gracie nodding obediently before following Lucia out of the building.
Upon returning back to their office, front desk informed Lucia that Daphne was waiting for her in her office, which made Lucia happy, because Daphne rarely came directly into work herself seeking meetings.
Upon arriving at the office and seeing Daphne's serene face, Lucia couldn't help but smile. "Daphne, what brings you here? Did Eduard finally let you out of his sight?"
"Lucia, don't make fun of me..." Daphne blushed and looked down.
Lucia smiled gently and sat next to her. "Tell me, why did you come see me?"
Daphne's face grew even redder at the question. She involuntarily twisted her hands together and struggled to speak. This only piqued Lucia's curiosity further.
Leaning in closer to Daphne with a mischievous grin on her face, Lucia asked teasingly, "Why are you so shy? What happened?"
With Lucia's exquisite features right in front of her, Daphne had no resistance towards her. So she gathered up all her courage and whispered something into Lucia's ear. The next second saw Lucia raising an eyebrow in surprise as she exclaimed loudly, "Really?!"
"D-Don't be so loud," Daphne said again with a blush as she lowered her head once more.
Overjoyed by the news that was just shared with her, Lucia quickly took hold of Daphne's hand and asked excitedly, "This is fantastic news! Are you sure about this?"
"I... I tested it myself but I haven't gone to the hospital yet," replied Daphne softly while looking cute with embarrassment written all over her face.
"Let's go confirm it then!" exclaimed an ecstatic Lucia as she hugged Daphne tightly for a moment before letting go cautiously, like holding onto something fragile that could break any moment. She continued smiling widely saying, "If Eduard finds out, he'll be jumping for joy!"
"That's why I came to find you," said a now-smiling Daphne who finally lifted up head again after feeling relieved enough to do so."I wanted someone I trust completely by my side when I get confirmation from the hospital."
There was no one else whom she trusted more than Lucia.
"Of course!" agreed Lucia immediately while giving a playful scowl at first before adding, "We're leaving right now!"
