She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1182

Chapter 1182 Heading to Other State

"Since that's the case, I'll go ahead and file the documents with the court. Everything that happened today cannot be leaked until Mr. Davies rescues Ms. Webb. If anyone accidentally lets it slip, you all know my character..." Miles spoke coldly after scanning the shareholders.

"Of course, of course..." Everyone echoed in agreement, eager to leave and forget about this situation as soon as possible.

Miles finally relaxed and waved for everyone to leave. After they were gone, Libby slowly walked up to him.

"Miles... I..." Libby didn't know what to say out of guilt.

Miles glanced at his wife and couldn't help but sigh deeply. "Libby, you really messed up this time. If something happens to Miss Webb, not only will Mr. Davies hold us accountable but we won't be able to live with ourselves either..."

"But Jacob was using you as leverage... what could I do?" Libby understood her husband's reasoning but sometimes there were no good options in a situation like this.

Miles knew his wife did it for him so he refrained from blaming her too much, but now he didn't know how he would face Arthur.

As the couple sighed heavily together, Miles' phone rang, causing him to take it out quickly before telling his wife, "It's Mr. Davies calling!"

"Did they rescue Ms. Webb?!" Libby's eyes lit up with hope.

Miles shook his head indicating he wasn't sure before answering on speakerphone, "Mr. Davies, how is Ms. Webb doing? Did you catch up with her?"

Arthur had a deep voice when he replied, "No."

Libby lost all hope instantly while saying apologetically, "I'm sorry Mr. Davies... it was all because of me..."

"I called to tell you that you shouldn't feel too guilty. You had no choice, and besides, today Lucia was taken away willingly. It's not directly related to whether you informed or not."

"What?" Both Libby and Miles thought they misheard Arthur at first

Arthur continued explaining himself further,"Lucia chose willingly being kidnapped by Jacob due having some questions she wanted answered herself. So you don't need to feel overly guilty."

Although Arthur tried reassuring them both already, Libby still felt guilty inside despite everything that had been said so far .

"If there is any progress, I will notify you as soon as possible. Don't worry too much, I have confidence in rescuing Lucia." This was also Arthur's self-supervision.

"Okay," Miles sighed, "you guys need to be careful too. Jacob... he's not a kind-hearted person, and he might end up causing trouble."

Although it may not sound pleasant, Miles still needed to remind Arthur.

"Okay." Arthur responded and hung up the phone.

Putting away his phone, Miles said and held his wife's hand. "It's okay, don't blame yourself too much. You heard what Mr. Davies said too."

Libby hung her head and dared not nod easily. She still felt guilty towards Lucia and Arthur.

Miles was extremely helpless and could only hope in his heart that Arthur would have smooth sailing and be able to successfully rescue Lucia.
