She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1010

Coming out of the hospital, Daphne asked Lucia curiously as soon as she got in the car,
"Lucia, who were those two people just now?"
"They are Lauren and Eve," Lucia said.
Daphne was very surprised, remembering the appearance of the two just now. They were indeed very similar to what Lola described, so she said understandingly,
"Eve does look weak, and Lauren should be worried about her."
Daphne had heard about Lauren's love.
"She is indeed weak, but..." Lucia's eyes darkened, "She is a little weaker when I met her last time. According to Lola, Nia should have been giving her blood transfusions, but why is her body getting worse and worse?"
Daphne thought about Lucia's words carefully, and inadvertently mentioned, "If Eve is not Nia's sister, this situation is indeed confusing, but with Nia's personality, is she really willing to save her sister?"
In Daphne's view, the friendship between sisters was extremely pure, even between her and Lucia, who had no blood relationship. However, Nia used her sister's illness to threaten Lauren to help her, which was really selfish.
Daphne's words instantly made Lucia think of something. She stroked her chin and muttered,
"It's true that Nia threatened Lauren to help her with Eve's illness. If Eve recovers, what leverage does she have?"
Daphne mentioned the beginning, but after that it was a little hard to think straight. She was stunned when she heard it, and saw Lucia holding her hand excitedly after finishing speaking,
"Daphne! Thanks for reminding me!"
"Huh?" Daphne was still confused.
"Those who are pregnant are really blessed. You have immediately cleared up the problems I couldn't figure out before. Daphne, you are such a treasure!" Lucia said with a smile.
Daphne was so embarrassed by Lucia's words. The two chatted about the precautions during pregnancy, and stopped discussing Lauren and Eve, but Lucia already had suspicions in her heart.
In the evening, Eduard came back from the company, and had already called Daphne several times along the way. This girl suddenly asked for leave today, and didn't say what she was going to do, and there was no news for the whole afternoon, so Eduard had to worry.
But Daphne still didn't answer his phone, so Eduard was worried all the way home. If she wasn't at home, he would send out people to find her.
Opening the door worriedly, Eduard was taken aback before he turned on the light, because Daphne was standing in front of the door. He froze for a moment, and his face turned pale immediately.
"Daphne, where did you go today? You didn't answer any of my calls! And why didn't you turn on the lights when you got home?" Eduard's tone was heavy with worry, but as soon as he saw Daphne pout, his heart softened. He couldn't bear it and reached out to hold her hand while saying, "Alright, I was just worried about you. I haven't been upset yet. You're the one who's upset first." His words were heavy but his hands were warm.
Daphne wasn't really upset earlier; she was just teasing him. But when she thought about what she had to say next, her face involuntarily turned red...
"Why are you blushing?" Eduard asked in concern when he saw Daphne suddenly blush.
"Did you get sick?"
"I did go to the hospital today," Daphne's voice was low and soft again. This idiot thought that blushing meant being sick?
"What? You went to the hospital?!" When Eduard heard this news, he quickly touched her cheek and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
After speaking, he wanted to lead Daphne into the house and sit down but unexpectedly she grabbed his hand and wouldn't let him go inside. Eduard looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Daphne moved her lips as if saying something but Eduard couldn't hear it clearly so he bent down and put his ear close to her lips asking, "Daphne, I didn't hear clearly. Can you say it again?"
Eduard always had a scent that Daphne liked which made her feel warm inside. Her shyness slowly faded away leaving only happiness in her heart so those words naturally came out of mouth.
"Eduard... I'm pregnant."
No need for shyness because this was a happy thing.
Finally hearing what Daphne said clearly made Eduard's brain freeze up. These simple words were easy enough to understand but they kept playing over in his mind without knowing how to digest them.
Daphne's lips curled up high while Eduards stood there dazedly lost in thought until suddenly there were camera shutter sounds around them snapping photos, making him snap back into reality. He saw Lucia holding up her phone with a mischievous look on her face taking pictures of them both!
"This expression is priceless! Lucia, send me these photos later so I can keep them." Arthur's low magnetic voice also carried a hint of mischief for once.
"And me too! I want one!" Kane couldn't help laughing either.
"Go ahead and send it to everyone, Lucia," said Juliana in a cheerful voice.
Even if Eduard was slow to react, he should have realized it by now. The shock gradually faded away and he finally fully digested those words. At this moment, his expression changed rapidly. His mouth went from being dumbfounded to quickly curling upwards, and his eyes suddenly lit up as he stared at Daphne and shouted,
"Really?!"
Daphne smiled and nodded, and the next second she was lifted up by Eduard who was ecstatic.
"Oh my god! I'm going to be a dad!"
Just as Eduard was about to twirl Daphne around, Lucia came over and slapped his arm without hesitation.
"Be careful! Don't bump into Daphne!"
"Oh..." Eduard laughed with a big grin on his face, but obediently let go of Daphne and put her down. He saw her blushing cheeks and hugged her tightly with all his affection, which was all expressed in this warm embrace.
Everyone saw this and congratulated them. It wasn't until Eduard recovered that he found out Daphne had gone to see Lucia today and it was her idea not to answer his calls. Eduard complained bitterly,
"Ms. Webb, I have no grievances with you. Why are you doing this?"
Lucia giggled and leaned against Arthur, flipping through the photos she had just taken without a hint of guilt.
"You still have the mind to blame Lucia," Juliana laughed on the side, "Now that Daphne is pregnant, you should take some action too, right? Do you also want to be like me and Kane and have your son be a flower boy?"
"That won't do!" Eduard immediately straightened up and turned to Daphne, saying,
"Daphne, will you marry me?"
