She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 300

"I'm worried about her," Eduard said without thinking. There was no sound in the kitchen except for a roaring pot.

Eduard looked embarrassed. What did he just say? Lucia and Arthur smiled at each other. They looked at Daphne together to see if the young woman had come to her senses. But, to their disappointment, and predictably, Daphne was innocent,

"Eduard, I'm sorry I made you worry. It won't happen again."

Daphne looked guilty, but she had no sense of the shame others felt toward her.

At the sight of Daphne's reaction, Eduard felt like a deflated balloon, not knowing whether to be thankful or disappointed.

Lucia hurried out and asked Daphne to bring her breakfast to the dinning room, while Arthur patted Eduard on the shoulder again, trying not to laugh,

"It's a long road. Go for it."

A love veteran met a simple young woman. He had a long way to go.

At the dining table, where four people were having breakfast, Eduard, who was usually the noisiest, was quiet and engrossed in his breakfast.

"Eduard, I need someone from you," Lucia purposely said to Eduard.

"Huh?" Eduard had just taken a bite of porridge and looked up with his mouth open in a funny way as Daphne handed him a tissue.

Eduard took the tissue, wiped his mouth, and asked Lucia, "Who do you want?" Not Daphne, right?

"Nia, I want her to come back to Webbex Group with me. I don't know if you're going to let her go," Lucia said politely.

"Of course," Eduard said, knowing that Nia had feelings for Lucia outside of work and that such a person would naturally be willing to help her. Eduard had no reason to object,

"Just ask her to hand in her resignation."

"One more," Lucia added.

Eduard was speechless and complained, "Can't you just say it all at once?"

"I see," said Lucia, sticking out her tongue. "And Daphne. I want her to work for me."

When he heard Lucia ask for Daphne, Eduard instinctively wanted to say no, but as soon as he caught a glimpse of Daphne, she was looking at him excitedly. Obviously she was eager to work with Lucia. His eyes darkened, and he nodded slowly,

"As long as Daphne wants to, but not until Jacob's business is over. Don't you forget that Jacob is still looking for Daphne."

"Of course," said Lucia, smiling at Daphne who was jumping for joy.
