She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1071

Chapter 1071 Impatience Leads to Mistakes

The warm mist emanating from Lauren's body enveloped Eve, but it couldn't warm her heart. She stood there, still staring blankly ahead as if she hadn't seen him come out. Her tears had almost dried up, but the tear stains on her face remained, making her look even more fragile and pitiful.

Lauren reached out and wiped away the tear stains on Eve's face with his warm palm until it was clean again.

"Why are you crying?" Lauren asked helplessly.

Eve blinked a few times and tried to speak several times before finally managing to say something. Lauren sighed again when he saw this and led her over to sit on the sofa while he went into the bedroom to change clothes. When he came back out, Eve was still in the same position as before, looking like a puppet.

"I'll tell you what happened yesterday," Lauren said as he squatted down in front of Eve. "Casper went to see Kevin at the hospital yesterday, but they didn't really talk about anything important. However, Nia found out that Casper had gone to see Kevin so she started suspecting him of having ulterior motives. Stoffer then blabbed which I had ordered."

Eve's eyes regained some of their sparkle when she heard Lauren's confession – along with anger.

She glared at him accusingly for doing such a thing.

"What do you think I did it for?" Lauren retorted back at Eve.

"Why did you deliberately make my sister and Mr. Berry suspicious of each other?! Why would you do that?!" Even though Eve was simple-minded by nature and couldn't think of any reason why Lauren would do such a thing; nevertheless she felt strongly that it wasn't right! This was the first time Eve accused Lauren so sternly.

Kevin was now her sister's only support besides her and their parents!

At first, Lauren hadn't planned on confessing everything openly like this because he didn't want Eve blaming or resenting him; however, seeing her tears earlier made his heart soften towards her all over again.

"Why?" Lauren's voice became colder by several degrees now as some indifference crept into his eyes.

"Your sister doesn't believe me no matter what I say or do. I just wanted to nudge things along so that she'd start doubting Kevin who is willing even lay down his life for your sister! But what about yourself? Do blood ties really limit Nia's malice? One day soon enough Kevin will become an example for everyone else including yourself! I know your sister will come begging once more. However, what remains unclear is whether or not you can truly stick by your principles!"

Eve pursed her lips tightly without saying anything. It turned out Lauren's disappointment earlier meant exactly this - despite repeatedly stating in front of him how much importance she placed upon sticking firmly by her principles, yet last night after seeing how much distress Nia was going through due nightmares made Even feel sorry for her...

Eve knew deep down inside herself that although she realized where exactly things went wrong, yet there wasn't any remorse within herself...

"She's my sister." After holding back for a long time, Eve looked up at Lauren with firmness in her eyes. "I have to help her."

"I also said that I would never agree to this," Lauren said with pain in his heart, and he and Eve finally ushered in this situation.

"Even if you beg me, I won't agree!"

It was not difficult to kill Casper, and it was even easier to kill Jacob, but Lauren respected Lucia, and he must let Lucia deal with Jacob herself.

"I won't beg you! I'll figure it out myself!" Feeling wronged, Eve gasped again, and suddenly pushed Lauren away. Then she stood up, ran out the door, and didn't give Lauren a chance to continue talking.

Lauren was squatting, but was pushed by Eve and almost fell down. When he stood up, he realized that Eve had already run out of the room. He hurriedly knocked on her door, but Eve didn't open the door anyway. As a last resort, Lauren could only ask the manager to open the door, but Eve didn't go back to the room at all!
