She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 301

The lid of the music box was slowly opened. With the sound of music, a beautiful ballet dancer danced with the music, but what Lucia cared about was not this, but the silver necklace wrapped around the ballerina. The end of the silver necklace was a delicate pendant.

"This is..." Lucia's hand trembled slightly, caressing the silver necklace. At the moment she touched it, memories flooded back like a tide.

During the college days, on that splendid afternoon, she personally wore this silver necklace around Poppy's neck.

"Poppy, I gave this to you. Do you like it?"

"Yes, Lucia , you're so kind to me."

"This pendant is a lily, a symbol of the pure friendship between us. Poppy, I hope we can keep going like this."

"Well, we'll always be best friends!"

Lucia still remembered the way Poppy solemnly told herself that their friendship would last forever. After being betrayed by her and Jacob together, she also remembered this scene, but her mood was no longer moved, but infinite satire.

"Why do you still keep this ..." Lucia's eyes turned red. She untied the chain from the dancer, put it in the palm of her hand, and muttered to herself.

But Poppy could no longer answer.

The necklace represented the friendship between them, and Poppy kept it. Lucia wondered if she could understand that what she said to her was sincere.

Feeling sad, Lucia held back her tears and put the necklace in her pocket. She turned to face the floor-to-ceiling window, hoping that the busy city scene outside the window would distract her, or at least make her feel less sad.

However, the tears still rolled down.

"Poppy, you idiot, why did you have to let me know at the end..."

With a low sigh, it was Lucia's inescapable regret.

On the other side, Arthur took Kane and Kyle to find Samuel after confirming that Jacob was not in the office .

Samuel was stunned by Arthur's coercion, and when he saw him, he was unconsciously timid, and he naturally spoke without reserve.

"Mr. Davies, Mr. Taylor really hasn't come. I don't know where he is now."

"Have you called?" Arthur asked Samuel coldly.

"I have called. He doesn't answer." Samuel told the truth.

"Keep calling," Arthur let out a low voice, scaring Samuel. Then he hen asked, "Are all the shareholders here?"

"Just those few people who have been waiting for you in the conference room." Samuel said.

"I'll give you another half an hour to get Jacob. If you can't find him..." Arthur scowled and said threateningly to Samuel.

"I'm going right now!" Samuel responded quickly, and he started walking away as soon as he finished speaking. Kane and Kyle couldn't help laughing when they saw this.

"Arthur, I don't think Jacob will come." Kane said seriously to Arthur after laughing.

"I guessed it, too," Arthur said, nodding. "I asked Samuel to find him, just to make sure he really had the guts to just walk away."

"I'll call the police right away." Kyle was Arthur's assistant, and he knew what he meant when he said that.
