She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1164

Chapter 1164 A Villain Holding Sway

After discussing, Arthur led them to Nia and Kevin's room. Even at this time, there were still two police officers guarding their floor. Nia had been anxious for the past few days and had been hiding in the hotel with Kevin, not daring to go out. They even handled company matters from their hotel room. But when she saw Jack and his team, she instantly relaxed.

Nia was familiar with Jack and his team; they were powerful mercenaries who could handle anything that came their way. With them around, Casper wouldn't be able to do anything.

"Mr. Davies, thank you so much for your help!" Nia smiled widely.

But Jack and his team looked disgusted by her show of gratitude; they all had cold expressions on their faces.

Arthur didn't react to Nia's gratitude at all; he simply said,

"I promised Lauren and Eve that I would help you out properly. Since I made that promise, I won't just half-heartedly do it."

He then turned towards Jack's group,

"You know each other already; they will be responsible for your safety while you're here. Just watch your attitude. They're my friends."

Arthur made it clear that if Nia dared disrespect any of them even a little bit, he wouldn't let it slide.

"That goes without saying," Nia replied with a smile, "Thank you all so much for helping me out! With you guys around, I feel safe."

Jack retorted coldly, "We don't understand what she's saying."

Nia wasn't very good at the language they spoke; she could only roughly understand what Jack meant but didn't know how to respond. Kevin stepped in to translate her words for her.

Jack was perceptive about people - he could tell from the look in Kevin's eyes where he stood relative to Nia - so he told him,

"We'll take care of security ourselves. Make sure you stay out of our way otherwise."

Arthur didn't want to linger, as he had already arranged rooms for Jack's group near Nia and Kevin's room. After giving some instructions, he left, and from then on, Nia and Kevin truly felt at ease.

Leaving the hotel, Arthur didn't return to the company. It was already afternoon, and he decided to go directly to Webbex Group to wait for Lucia to finish work and go home together. However, just as he got into the car, he received a phone call and ended up heading to another appointment instead.

Almost at the same time that Jack and his team checked into the hotel, Sage, who had been monitoring Nia and Kevin all along, reported back to Casper. This was also what Arthur had approved of.

"Mr. Wood, Arthur has hired four foreign bodyguards who protected Lucia in the past to protect Nia and Kevin. These people are very powerful, and we may not be able to do anything to them," Sage said.

Hearing that Arthur had brought back Jack's team, Casper was both surprised and confused. He knew that Lucia had vouched for Nia several times in order to find out his whereabouts but bringing back Jack's team seemed like an overreaction? Even though he himself hadn't planned on making a move anytime soon.

Casper couldn't understand it because he didn't know about Lauren's relationship with Arthur. But at this moment, he could only say,

"Just keep monitoring them without alarming them. Those four people are not easy to deal with. The focus now is still on finding Leon's whereabouts."
