She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 765

Chapter 765 Failed Operation

During the hours of waiting for the dawn to come, Lucia walked to the window countless times to check on the situation in the vestibule. She also looked at the last quarter moon in the sky countless times. Although her daughter was sleeping soundly behind her, Lucia's heart could not settle down.

She didn't tell Arthur that she was going to make her move tonight. She was afraid that Arthur would bring someone over, which would only draw more attention. Perhaps it would cause a big mess.

Just as Lucia had random thoughts, Gene's voice came from behind her,

"Lucia, it's almost time."

Lucia looked back and saw Gene and the others dressed agile clothes. They looked like they were ready to go.

Gene, in particular, wore a baby strap in addition to his power suit.

"You don't have to be so nervous," Lucia said uneasily, but she tried to calm them. "Spencer doesn't expect us to leave tonight. We'll just have to take care of the guards like last time."

"Lucia, don't do it yourself this time." Victor remembered Lucia's fight with Dan that night. He also remembered Arthur's cold eyes when he looked at the four of them. They wouldn't dare let her hurt any more,

"Arthur will really skin us alive."

Victor's banter made everyone smile and the tension eased a little.

"I know. I'm going to focus on the baby this time," Lucia said with a smile.

"We are ready to go." Seeing Lucia smile, Jack said seriously.

Lucia nodded, went to the crib and gently picked the baby up when Gene came up to her and said,

"Lucia, I'll take the baby."

Lucia looked up at Gene, held her daughter to his arms, and helped him tuck the baby into the sash.

Glancing out the window at the few neon lights in the front garden, there was nothing out of the ordinary under the moonlight. Lucia turned to the four of them and said,

"Let's go!"

At the command, Lucia and her party of five, carrying only a few important items, turned off the lights in the building and headed out the door, following the route they had memorized.

Leaving the door ajar, Jack looked cautiously out the door. When he saw the silence, he turned to Lucia and the others and whispered,

"Spencer's men are lurking around, but if we move fast enough, we'll be able to break through. Victor and I will take the lead later. Gene and Nick, you two will be in charge of Lucia and the baby's safety."

"OK." The other three nodded, and Lucia braced herself to concentrate on the raid.

After arranging the mission, Jack opened the door. Then, they sneaked forward to the side door quickly. It was 30 meters, 20 meters, and 10 meters. There was still no movement around. When they were about to reach the side door, everyone's heart was in their throats, but as they were about to reach the door, Lucia suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She subconsciously turned to look behind her. Her eyes were momentarily blinded by several bright beams of light.

"Oh no, it's an ambush!" Nick exclaimed, even shielding Lucia from the glare. Gene covered the bbay's eyes, and the rest of the team was ready.

Several bright lights hit Lucia and the others mercilessly, illuminating the front yard of the building as if it was day. After the dizziness was over and she got used to the bright light, Lucia saw people walking out from the surroundings.

In the direction of the vestibule, a long figure came towards them, laughing as he went.

"Lucia, it's the middle of the night. Where are you going?"

Spencer!

Lucia gnashed her teeth at the abominable name!
