She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 272

Lucia's inadvertent words revealed her possessiveness towards Arthur. That was pleasant to Arthur's ears, and he looked at Lucia affectionately.

Lucia glanced up into Arthur's eyes, and she could almost feel herself surrounded by his gaze. She was staring at him for a moment, forgetting the people around her.

"I ask you guys to stop display affections?!" He looked down at Lucia, and then looked at Arthur sideways. Eduard finally couldn't help but complain. They were so affectionate every time and really regarded others as transparent!

Daphne couldn't help laughing because of Eduard's words. Seeing that the three were looking at her, she bowed her head embarrassedly, and said,

"I am sorry…"

"It's alright. Uncle Eduard always says so," Lucia teased.

"You call me uncle? Daphne, don't listen to her. Just call me Eduard." Eduard shouted reluctantly. Daphne felt more and more easy to get along with this person.

"You're old but not respectable," Lucia glanced at Eduard before introducing to Arthur, "Arthur, it's this girl who stole Jacob's ledger for me and was beaten by him so badly. I really don't know what to do to thank you..."

"Lucia, don't say that," Daphne quickly shook her head and said after Lucia thanked her again, "I did it willingly."

"Anyway, thank you for everything you've done for Lucia. Now what you want, what you need, just say it," Arthur said aggressively.

"No, no," Daphne quickly waved her hand and said, "Since I am willing, I never thought about getting anything in return."

"I have to," Arthur said domineeringly. "You helped Lucia, and I have to pay you back."

"Mr. Davis, how can you be so domineering to force her for paying back?" Eduard couldn't help but said jealously.

Lucia and Daphne laughed together. Watching Arthur and Eduard bickering again, Lucia leaned into Daphne's ear and asked her softly,

"You are not nervous now, right?"

Daphne was stunned for a moment before realizing what Lucia was referring to, so she smiled and replied, "Well, I am not nervous right now."

"That's good. Although Eduard's words and deeds are a little frivolous, in fact, he is very trustworthy. You can live here with peace of mind and let him do all the things. Don't worry about bothering him. Know it?" Lucia instantly downgraded Eduard to a male servant.

"Okay." Although she said in a low voice that she didn't dare do so, Daphne still nodded and smiled sweetly.

In the evening, Lucia and Arthur didn't leave until Daphne settled down. Before leaving, Arthur still insisted on reminding, so that Daphne could ask him if she needed anything. Because of this, he and Lucia were almost coaxed to be "sent" out by Eduard.

As soon as Lucia and Arthur left, the room fell silent in an instant. Eduard stroked his hair and turned to ask Daphne, "Are you sure you can walk back to the room by yourself?"

"Yes." Daphne said as if she wanted to prove it to Eduard, and walked slowly to the room. In fact, the second floor was the guest room, and the room on the first floor was Eduard's master bedroom. He was afraid of Daphne's inconvenience so he deliberately lied to her. He said it was a guest room, but he had been tidying up for a while when he first arrived in the afternoon, for fear of letting Daphne see it.
