She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 557

"Jacob, don't go too far, okay? Don't you want enough from me these days?" Spencer said coldly.

"Enough?" Jacob sneered. "A lot less than what you took from me."

"All right," Spencer said, knowing enough was enough. "I'll think about it. That's all."

Then he hung up and put the phone down. Spencer looked at Lucia and said, "Well, now hand him over. I'd be happy to."

As for Jacob's confession e-mail, he'll find another way to deal with it. Winning Esmae's trust was what was most important right now.

Lucia sat on the sofa and stared straight at Spencer, wondering if his words could be trusted. Besides, she was also puzzled. Listening to their conversation just now, Spencer seemed to be afraid of Jacob. As for what it was, it was worth her investigation.

"Still don't believe me?" Spencer said helplessly.

"Yes, but I have to find Jacob first," said Lucia after a moment's silence.

"No way." Spencer shook his head. "Jacob is a free man now. I can give you clues, but there's no guarantee that he'll be caught. If he escapes, I won't get anything, will I?"

"And if I can't catch him, then I have nothing to gain?" Lucia asked.

"It's up to you," Spencer said to Lucia with a sly look in his eyes.

"Tell me, how would you like me to help you regain your trust in front of Esmae?" Lucia asked Spencer, changing the subject. "You know, she doesn't think much of you anymore."

"Just play along for the next month, and I won't put you on the spot," Spencer said,

"I'll consider Ms. Wilson when we've built enough momentum."

"A month? !" Lucia's eyes turned cold.

"A month isn't long," Spencer said, smiling as he leaned back on the couch. The deal was done, and his mood was instantly improved. "Lucia, you have to be patient, don't you? Jacob's not going anywhere..."

Lucia stared at Spencer for a long time, then nodded helplessly. All she had left was to find Jacob.

The people of Athegate had recently been confused by the media. Lucia and Spencer recently had a falling out over a woman, Nia. And in a major turn of events, Lucia had publicly expressed her forgiveness for Spencer. What happened after that was even more incredible. They had thought that the two of them would continue their cold war for a while, but after Lucia was discharged from the hospital, the two of them began to appear together in the public. Their relationship was extremely close.

Whether it was industry conferences, high society, parties or banquets, Lucia, who had disappeared two months earlier, had reappeared and had been snuggling up to her fiancé Spencer. The two were inseparable.

"Lucia, what the hell!" Eduard and the others had just finished dinner at Arthur's house. Eduard accidentally flipped open a financial magazine and slammed it on the coffee table. He couldn't help but lose his temper.

On the coffee table, the open side of the financial magazine reported that Lucia and Spencer were attending a business meeting together. The report also included photos of the two of them snuggling together. Lucia's eyes were full of tenderness, and Spencer was doting on her. Then looking carefully, between the lines of the report, they were described as an affectionate couple.
