She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 728

Chapter 728 A little jealousy

As soon as Nia left, Arthur went back to his desk, sat down, picked up his phone, and sent a message to Lucia.

"Just now, I felt out Nia's tone. She trusts Casper very much and even vouches for him with her personality. Their relationship is never simple. I suspect that Casper is Jacob's henchman."

After the message was sent, Arthur picked up his pen and opened the file to get ready for work. However, Lucia did not reply to the message. He was waiting for it. From time to time, he would be distracted and look at his phone. In the end, he even put down his pen. Holding the mobile phone, he turned to look out the window of the building and focused on waiting for her reply.

She didn't reply the message. He was not at all interested in his work.

Finally, Lucia replied, and Arthur opened it to find a picture of a baby's foot. He smiled, only to find Lucia at the bottom of the picture asking,

"Did you have fun?"

She was jealous...

Aware of this, Arthur smiled widely and his typing speed was faster.

"Just a few words. You told me to get her to talk, didn't you?"

"Well... I let you..." Lucia replied, adding a meaningful emoji at the end.

Arthur savoured Lucia's words and, with a growing smile on his face, added,

"Is the baby asleep?"

A few seconds later, Lucia sent Arthur a picture of the baby sleeping peacefully. Looking at his daughter's face in the picture, Arthur's heart was filled with happiness.

Later, Lucia texted again.

"Your guess is probably right. Besides the fact that Jacob sent him, how could Nia trust a strange man she met on social media with such a suspicious mind? We have to infiltrate his background, and also, does his father know that he's involved with a fugitive like Jacob?"

"I've been looking into his college records, and I'll know more soon."

"Well, I have a lot of people here, so I'm going to have to ask you to look into these things," Lucia said deliberately as she looked at Arthur's message.

Sure enough, Arthur replied,

"It's not a request. I volunteered."

Lucia smiled. Clearly, there was no one else present. There was only the sleeping baby in the cradle beside her, but she still smiled secretly. She had the willfulness of being a little woman.

"Keep an eye on Spencer too. He's been flying to the USA a lot lately, and he always stays there for a few days. It doesn't match his schedule. I suspect he's up to something," Lucia replied.
