She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 596

In the dimly lit room, Lucia slept on her side, with the heat on, so she was covered only with a thin blanket. And her bulging belly was visible.

She was still frowning in her sleep, because in the late stage of pregnancy, almost every pregnant woman would suffer when sleeping. They had difficulty in turning over and Lucia was no exception, but there was a slight discomfort between her brows. Her expression was calm and peaceful.

Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly as if she was waking up. Although her beautiful face was much rounder, it was still exquisite. Her pink lips were not covered in any lipstick, and the natural lustre was even more attractive. Suddenly her lips curved, her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then she woke up.

When she opened her eyes and saw Arthur sitting beside her, Lucia thought for a moment that she was still dreaming.

No wonder Lucia thought she was in a dream. Although Arthur was devoted to her, he never entered her room alone and sat by her bed.

The dim light made it even harder to tell what was real and what wasn't. Lucia blinked and raised a hand toward Arthur, who held it in mid-air.

Lucia, this was not a dream!

He was holding her hand. It was very warm.

"Lucia, I'm sorry..." before Lucia could recover from her surprise, Arthur gently squeezed her palm and said in a small voice.

"Hmm?" Lucia wasn't sure what she was hearing. Was Arthur apologizing to herself?

Looking into Lucia's misty eyes as she awoke, Arthur looked deeply at her, then let go of her hand and stood up,

"It's 7:00. Do you want to get up for dinner?"

"Oh..." until Arthur walked out the door, Lucia did not realize what had happened.

When she came downstairs for dinner, Lucia felt that everyone was looking at her strangely, and their brows furrowed slightly when she watched them.

She won't restrain her thought, so she asked at the table,

"What's going on? You're looking at me strangely."

As soon as Lucia said this, they turned their heads not to look at her, but at a glass of water or a plate, with nobody saying anything.

Lucia was now quite sure that something had happened during her afternoon nap, and just as she was about to ask, Sophie smiled lovingly and said,

"Lucia, you're overthinking it. I have stewed the soup for a long time today. You should drink more."

Lucia paused for a few seconds, knowing that she wouldn't be able to get anything out of them. She lowered her head and started eating. However, the moment she lowered her head, everyone turned back to look at her. There was gentleness in everyone's eyes.

Thousands of miles away, a group of people suddenly broke into a suburban mansion in California. The servants were screaming and hiding everywhere, while the two leading men held a teenage boy in their hands and dragged him forward.

"My God, what happened. Who are you..." A lavishly dressed hostess ran down the stairs and shouted loudly. However, after she saw the men in the lead, her voice suddenly disappeared. Her face also changed into a very frightened expression.
