She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 64

She couldn't help but ask that question, selfishly trying to confirm whether Arthur believed the false news about her.

"I don't buy a word of it."

Lucia, who got the answer, did not continue the topic. When she heard Arthur's answer, her eyes flashed in the endless grief mixed with the pathetic snicker.

"Send me back. From now on, leave me alone, okay?" After a long silence, Lucia said with a soft sigh as if she was tired.

Arthur kept quiet and just wanted time to stop.

Outside the window, the sun was warm, but in the middle of winter, there were no birds singing. Everything was silent. Inside the car, Lucia and Arthur were sitting together. Obviously, they were so close but their hearts had long been on the other side of the world.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, he got out of the car and returned to the driver's seat, started the engine and drove her back to Jibillion Inc. When Lucia got out of the car herself, without a moment's hesitation, the Rolls-Royce Phantom sped away.

Lucia stood there looking at the Rolls-Royce Phantom, which was disappearing fast into the tide of cars, and couldn't hide the worry in her eyes.

"Lucia, is that you?" When she received Lucia's call, Sophie was a little surprised.

"Sophie, just now Arthur came to me for a talk. He is a little unstable ... you ..." Lucia found it so hard to speak. Every word was like to be stuck in the throat.

Sophie, who was on the other end of the phone, was silent for a long time before she replied, "I know."

The phone hung up, and Lucia looked up again in the direction Arthur had left, said quietly in her heart that she was sorry, and then turned around and walked towards the building.

As soon as she entered the building, Lucia noticed that everyone was looking at her. They used to just whisper behind her back, but now they dared talk openly when she passed by.

"We'll have a good show later ..."

"Yeah, I really don't know what she was thinking."

"It's a pity we can't go up and watch the show ..."

The chatter of the crowd faintly reached Lucia's ears, but she didn't have the energy to think about what they were talking about. She just wanted to get back to the office and bury herself in her work.

When Lucia came out of the elevator, she met Nia, who looked fearful and immediately grabbed Lucia's hand and said, "Lucy, get out of here!"

Lucia didn't know what she meant, so she didn't follow her and asked, "What's going on?"

Why was Nia so flustered?
