She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1165

Chapter 1165 Another Malicious Intent Arises

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the flower delivery guy appeared on time at Lucia's office floor. He had been delivering flowers on time for about ten days now, and he and Gracie had become quite familiar with each other.

"Hello, I'm here to deliver flowers. Could you please sign for them?"

Although Gracie didn't like these flowers any more than Lucia did, she didn't want to make things difficult for the delivery guy. So she signed as usual and stuffed the flowers under their designated spot. That was when the delivery guy spoke up,

"Does your CEO not like these flowers? Every time I see you just stuffing them away."

These cherry blossoms were specially customized and needed to be kept fresh for a long time. They were quite valuable in the eyes of this delivery guy.

Gracie smiled but said nothing.

The delivery guy felt awkward asking any further questions so he left after collecting his things. As soon as he was gone, Gracie picked up the bouquet of flowers and crushed them before throwing them into the bottom of a trash can along with other garbage. Who knew if Arthur would notice or not.

Not long after that, Lucia finished her meeting and came back to her office where Gracie told her about yet another flower delivery. Lucia glanced over at the trash can before pursing her lips slightly.

Since there wasn't much going on that afternoon, Libby stayed at the company waiting for Miles until almost five o'clock when he finally returned.

"Miles! How did it go?" Libby stood up anxiously as soon as she saw him come in.

"We worked everything out," Miles said while loosening his tie.

"Really?" Although Libby trusted her husband completely, she still couldn't help but ask worriedly, "There won't be any problems will there?"

"Arthur was involved in our discussion too. Do you still think there might be problems?" Miles smiled slightly.

Libby sighed when she saw that smile disappear from Miles' face again, "It's been so long since I've seen you smile."

At those words from his wife, Miles' expression darkened slightly again, "All we can do now is seek revenge for our son. Once Jacob receives appropriate punishment, then Casper should rest easy."

"I keep seeing him around lately... it feels like our son is still alive..." Libby murmured softly with bitterness filling every word out of her mouth.

Miles frowned deeply while staring intently at Libby, "He isn't Casper. Don't let your guard down."

Miles understood what his wife was feeling. Even though Jacob deserved all their hatred, sometimes even he would lose focus upon seeing that face which looked exactly like their son's.

"How could I..." With head bowed low now, Libby replied softly, "... I only feel hate towards him."

Miles sighed and took his wife's hand. "Things are going to change soon, and although Brendon and the others are here, you need to be extra careful. My attention will be on Jacob, so I may not be able to look out for you all the time."

Libby leaned against her husband's shoulder and whispered, "I know."

Since Jack and his team started protecting them, Nia and Kevin had become reckless. They not only moved around freely but also planned to attack StandHill again. It was as if they had forgotten Eve's warnings.
