She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 227

Theodore was so smart; when Lucia urged the driver to speed up, he asked her.

"Mommy, is Daddy waiting for us at the airport?"

Lucia nodded, and Theodore continued, "Can't Grandma know it?"

"There is some misunderstanding between your grandma and dad; it's better not to let them meet." It was so complicated that Lucia could not explain it.

"OK, I won't tell Grandma," Theodore said with an understanding nod.

"Good boy." Lucia praised, looking anxiously ahead and hoping to reach the airport as soon as possible.

Perhaps the driver felt Lucia's emotions. He drove the car at the fastest speed and they soon arrived at the airport. Lucia picked up Theodore, carried the suitcase, and rushed to the appointed place. She was more upset after she arrived at the airport.

When they finally met Arthur in the VIP room, Lucia urged the father and son to hurry up.

"Let's go, we'll talk about it later when we get on the plane."

"What's wrong?" Arthur asked worriedly.

"Esmae was home just now, and I feel she has realized something," Lucia said uneasily.

Arthur frowned, picked up Theodore, carried his luggage with the other hand, and said, "It's time to board. Let's go now."

They could take the VIP passage to board. Lucia followed behind Arthur and looked back. As expected, soon Esmae's housekeeper ran into the airport hall with a few men behind him. Luckily, they did not think Arthur and Lucia were in the VIP lounge, so Arthur and Lucia managed to avoid them.

When she boarded the plane, Lucia was relieved, but she knew that it would be difficult for her to explain to Esmae this time.

Getting Theodore seated, Arthur turned to Lucia and said with an undertone, "Lucia, we're on the plane. Don't worry."

Lucia smiled and did not tell Arthur about her concerns. Theodore, who sat down, got up and crawled into Arthur's arms, complaining that Arthur was so heartless to not come to see him. Arthur smiled and soothed Theodore, allowing Lucia some time to calm down.

When the plane was about to take off, Lucia wanted to turn off her phone and Esmae called her. Lucia hesitated for a while before she dared to answer it.

"Esmae ..."

"Come back to Chicago after your vacation with Teddy. I have something to say to you!" Esmae's tone was harsh, and she hung up the phone right after she finished speaking, not giving Lucia any chance to explain.

Lucia held the phone in a depressed mood. Esmae really knew it.

"Lucia ..." Holding Theodore, Arthur found Lucia looked bad, so he called out to her. Lucia turned her head and saw Arthur and Theodore looking at her in confusion. Then she suppressed her emotions, showed a smile and talked happily to Theodore.

"Teddy, let's get tan-skinned this time, okay?"
