She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 764

Chapter 764 Make up your mind

"I don't want to have anything to do with someone like Spencer, and that doesn't change the fact that I love Arthur," Lucia said, now unconcerned.

"If you must stop me, I can only spend my life confessing to you, but I will never submit to it again."

"Lucia, are you renouncing me?!" Esmae's heart palpitated at Lucia's words, but when she heard them, her temper was piqued by the rebellious nature of her words.

"Auntie, thank you for taking care of me," Lucia said, gritting her teeth and hanging up quickly.

She didn't want to wait any longer!

She looked at the time on her phone. It was 8:20 p. m. , so it was best to wait until later in the night to leave. After making up her mind, Lucia found Jack and the others and told them her plan.

"After midnight, we'll get out of here." Lucia's eyes were firm.

A few words from Lucia piqued their moods.

"Well said!" Victor immediately praised, "People should live their lives according to their hearts. Lucia, don't worry. We are all your strong backing. After midnight, we will leave!"

When Gene saw that Lucia had made up her mind, he secretly made up his mind too. Tonight, no mistakes!

Meanwhile, back in Chicago, Esmae was pacing back and forth in her study, restless after Lucia hung up on her.

"Esmae, what's wrong?" Chris saw his wife like this when he passed the study, so he came in and asked her.

"Lucia just called," Esmae confided to her husband as she struggled to resolve her frustration. "She's upset with how I'm handling Spencer, and she wants to cut me off!"

Chris scowled, and though his wife looked sad and aggrieved, so he took a fair stand and said,
