She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 209

"Arthur, you're back?" Opening the door and seeing Arthur, Juliana asked with a smile on her face.

"Hmm," Arthur replied as he passed Juliana and walked into her room, continuing, "Have you been unwell recently?"

"No," Juliana replied as she closed the room door and followed Arthur.

"Then why don't you go to my office with me?" Arthur whirled around and asked, staring straight into Juliana's eyes.

Juliana's heart thumped. Pretending to be calm, she asked him, "Arthur, why do you speak to me in such a tone?"

"What tone?" Arthur said faintly.

"Like you're interrogating me," Juliana forced herself to look into Arthur's eyes and said coldly.

Arthur withdrew his gaze, walked aside and replied casually, "You think too much. I'm just worried that you feel unwell."

Juliana stared at Arthur and interjected, "I've been uncomfortable from morning sickness lately. You were busy working, so I didn't tell you ..."

Arthur turned back, and found that Juliana had lowered her head and she looked aggrieved.

"Didn't I tell you to tell me as soon as you feel uncomfortable?" Though he said so, he didn't look worried about Juliana at all.

"You're so busy. I don't want to bother you ..." Juliana said in a low voice.

"It's true that I haven't had much time these days. Do you know what price I offered to gain the project?" Walking to the bedside, Arthur swept a glance at the messy bed and asked Juliana as if inadvertently.

"I don't know." Juliana shook her head, her heart pounding.

"20 billion higher than the budget, and everyone is probably laughing at me," Arthur turned back, looked at Juliana and said.

Juliana hung her head lower after hearing this and replied, "Hmm."

Feeling that she seemed to act too indifferently, she immediately looked up with a worried face and asked Arthur, "Arthur, is it a serious problem?"

"Well, it might affect the revenue in the second half of the year," Arthur replied, "Aren't you curious about why I offered such a high price?"

Juliana was confused.

"At the bidders conference, Jacob offered five billion higher than mine each other. When I offer a price of 50 billion, he stopped bidding, so 50 billion is the final price that Davonnis Corp needs to pay," Arthur talked about it calmly and looked at Juliana from time to time.

"So that's it ..." Juliana murmured, seemingly indignant.

"Jacob knows the maximum bid provided by Davonnis Corp. So, I have been busy finding out who leaked that exact number to him recently." Arthur fixated on Juliana as he spoke.

Juliana tried her best to calm herself down, feigned an innocent look and asked Arthur worriedly.

"Hope you find out who has betrayed you as soon as possible!"
