She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 152

"Sir, please say the code," Lucia said mischievously and stopped Arthur at the door.

Arthur's sexy lips curled up, bent to kiss her on her forehead, and said softly, "Well, the code is, 'I love you'. Am I right?"

Arthur flirted with Lucia, who was lost for words at his sudden confession of love and blushed. Arthur loved it when Lucia looked shy. He picked her up and walked into the living room with a smile.

When they sat on the sofa, Arthur kissed her and smelled her fragrance. Apparently, he couldn't get enough of it.

Lucia pushed his face in resignation and asked, "Are you going to attend the banquet of Sherman Group tomorrow night?"

Arthur reluctantly stopped and asked, "Why did you ask about it?"

"I have to attend it tomorrow night..." Lucia said in a low and sad voice. Arthur could see the sadness in her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Lucia," Arthur said apologetically with his forehead against hers. "I'm sorry to make you troubled."

Arthur paid more attention to Lucia than anyone else. So he knew that she would refuse to attend any banquet held by the upper class to avoid confronting Juliana who was around him all the time. Lucia's thoughtfulness made Arthur ashamed.

"I am not troubled," Lucia said softly as she put on a gentle smile, "I'm just afraid that Eduard will argue with Juliana on impulse again."

Fascinated by Lucia, he became alert when Lucia mentioned Eduard. He manly clasped Lucia's waist to make them press against each other.

Then he demanded, "Don't dress so charming tomorrow night. Last time, Eduard acted smugly as if you were his woman. You can only be mine!"

Arthur didn't hide his possessiveness of her, which made Lucia's heart thump.

On a whim, she teased him, "As a CEO, you should not be that narrow-minded!"

"No man wants to share his beloved woman with someone else..." Arthur whispered.

It was late at night. He didn't want to waste one more second, so he sealed her with a kiss and had sex with her.

When Lucia felt an intense pleasure, Arthur's words echoed in her mind. "No man wants to share his beloved woman with someone else..."

For most people, the second day was new. They went to work or school routinely. Some people, however, were scheming and trying to take a shortcut to get everything they wanted.

Juliana spent the whole day in anxiety. Though she had made up her mind, she hesitated when it was about time to carry out the plan. Her conscience kept asking her if it was right to do that.

Perhaps because Poppy sensed Juliana's inner struggle, she called Juliana on a weekday, spared no effort to instigate Juliana, and mentioned 'Lucia' again and again, which strengthened Juliana's determination.

In the afternoon, Arthur considerately went with Juliana to make preparations. Seeing her choose a conservative evening dress, he smiled and asked her why the way she dressed changed. Juliana then replied to him perfunctorily.

In the evening, the Sherman manor, which was located in the east of the city, was receiving the guests. Arthur arrived with Juliana, and Jacob and Poppy arrived almost at the same time. The two couples didn't talk, but Poppy secretly gave a meaningful look to Juliana when she passed Juliana.
