She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1114

Chapter 1114 Reminder

As they were chatting, the elevator had already arrived downstairs. Lucia and Juliana said their goodbyes, and even Eve whispered a small goodbye. Juliana patted Lauren's shoulder with a serious expression.

"Be good to her."

Lauren couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. Kane glanced over and grabbed her wrist, pulling her hand back.

"Don't touch others randomly," he muttered.

Juliana sweetly smiled and kissed Kane on the chin with a loud smack. "I know," she replied. In return, she received an indulgent look from Kane who expressed his emotions as subtly as water flowing steadily.

Eve blushed while watching their intimate display of affection. She felt a sweet sensation in her heart after witnessing so many different ways couples interacted today; they all looked at each other with such soft eyes - was that how Lauren looked at her too?

Thinking this way, Eve lifted her head to glance at Lauren only to see herself reflected in those eyes - it was love at first sight.

Juliana drove off with Kane while Arthur handed Lucia the car key reminding her,

"Drive slowly."

Lucia had been driving by herself for quite some time now but Arthur would always remind her like this every single time.

"I know," Lucia replied with a smile before inviting Lauren and Eve into the car.

Once inside, they turned on the air conditioning unit waiting for it to warm up before Arthur helped Lucia take off her coat so that she could fasten up comfortably without any discomforts caused by seat belts rubbing against clothing material.

Sitting in the backseat next to Lauren made it difficult for Eve not to stare intently at how well Lucia and Arthur got along together compared to all other couples around them. There seemed to be an unspoken power dynamic between men and women when interacting where one party would always be stronger than another - like how she depended on Lauren whereas Lucian relied entirely on Arthur instead of being weak or submissive towards him. That made her feel like they needed each other equally much instead of one being more dominant than another

In short, Eve envied Lucia's relationship dynamics very much indeed!

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Eve appeared somewhat dejected, Lauren held onto their hands asking, "Are you still feeling cold?"

"Cold? Let me turn up the temperature." As soon as Lucia heard what was going on behind her, she immediately adjusted things accordingly.

"It's not that," said Eve shaking head quickly, unable to explain why she felt inferior deep down inside herself but then added casually, "It's already warm enough."

Lucia gave Eve suspicious glances then decided turning up temperature slightly higher just in case anyway before continuing driving forward slowly towards their destination. Arthur sat beside and kept Lucia's coat neatly folded across his lap, making sure no wrinkles formed during transit.

Lucia drove carefully. With four people in the car, however, everyone was silent for some reason. Eve sat quietly with her head down while Lauren tried to guess why her mood suddenly dropped.

"Lauren," Arthur suddenly asked when neon lights passed by the car window, "when do you plan on going back?"

"I don't know yet." Lauren's answer was straightforward but lacked substance.

"You've been here for over five months now, right?" Arthur didn't seem to care about his response and continued asking questions.
