She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 208

"50 billion!" Just as Kyle wanted to persuade Arthur to quit, Arthur offered a new price, and Kyle was left with a livid face.

Jacob chuckled after hearing Arthur's offer and stopped competing with him.

After three hammer blows, the moderator announced the bidder that won the development project of the islands was Davonnis Corp, and the whole venue burst into applause.

Actually, the project was at most worth 30 billion. The company that got it at a higher price had to take a huge risk. Arthur was very smart, so of course he knew it. But now he won the project with a price of 50 billion. The crowd who knew it was not worth it secretly laughed at him instead.

"Mr. Davies..." Hearing the clamor of the bystanders, Kyle looked at Arthur resignedly. Just now he reminded Arthur that the maximum limit was thirty billion.

"Go back." Arthur's face was expressionless. He stood up and left the venue. Kyle packed up his things, rushed after him, and stopped those reporters who were chasing after them.

Jacob saw Arthur stand up, he stood up as well and stared after Arthur with a look of triumph.

The news that Branch of Davonnis got the development project of the islands at 50 billion soon made headlines, with some reports even saying that Arthur was bound to lose money this time.

"Arthur is too generous!" Although Jibillion Inc had no interest in the development project of the islands, Eduard was shocked to know about it from reports and other business partners, and he deliberately brought it up to Lucia when she came to him for something.

"Well, I agree." Lucia seemed uninterested and replied casually while standing in front of Eduard's desk and looking through the files.

"Lucia, aren't you interested in this at all?" Eduard asked her with a frown.

Lucia closed the folder and said, "Arthur must have his own reasons for doing things. Davonnis Corp is wealthy. 50 billion is just a drop in the bucket for him."

"It makes sense. But it also matters whether he can get enough in return for the investment," Eduard said as he leaned back in his chair. "Clearly, Arthur is losing money."

Lucia narrowed her eyes. What Eduard said was right. Though she was not present at the bidders conference, it was not difficult to guess the reason why Arthur acted so impulsively. Jacob and Spencer must have contributed to it.

Lucia felt guilty. Though she had broken up with Arthur, it was true that Jacob went against Arthur for her sake.

"Lucia?" Eduard called Lucia's name when she was pondering.

"Stop being nosy about it. Have you read this proposal? Is it feasible?" Recovering her wits, Lucia reopened the folder and asked Eduard.

"Not yet ..." Eduard said weakly.
