She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 798

Chapter 798 No way to escape

Sitting by the porthole, Lucia saw the stars all the way from the sun. This was the only thing she could tell about time. The sea was calm, but her heart was set off surging waves every moment.

Where was Spencer sending her?

It was a pity the ocean won't give her any answers.

The deep sea at night had always been a source of gloom. Lucia could no longer be optimistic, for she knew how greedy Spencer was, and at what price to save herself and the baby. Lucia will not drag anyone, not even Arthur, down with her.

When she realized how negative her thoughts were, a soft moan came from the crib. Lucia's eyes flashed and she raised her hand to hit her face.

"Lucia, how can you be so depressed?" She muttered to herself in frustration. "Everyone is doing everything they can for you and the baby. It's so irresponsible!"

With that in mind, Lucia went to the crib to check on the baby, saw that she was still sound asleep, went to the door, and knocked on it.

Not long after, Dan's face appeared in the round window of the door.

Making a gesture of opening the door through the glass, Lucia waited for Dan to open the door, but could not speak through it.

Dan opened the door with a slight frown on his face, and looked at Lucia.

"It's so stuffy. I want to go out for a walk," Lucia whispered.

Dan remembered that Spencer said that Lucia could move around as she pleased, but that she couldn't get away with it. He was about to say yes when he suddenly smiled as if he had remembered something. The answer was:

"No."

"Why," said Lucia, frowning. "Spencer said I could walk around."

"Not as long as it's night," Dan said slowly as he stared into Lucia's eyes, as if trying to verify that he was right.

"This is the sea. Are you worried that I will run away?" said Lucia unhappily.

"Not really," Dan continued slowly. "Your kid's still in there, and there's Casper on board. I'm not worried about that."

"Then let me out. The room is too stuffy," Lucia continued, undeterred.

"There are a lot of stars tonight. With your intelligence, it's not difficult to determine the direction of our voyage from the position of the stars, is it?" Dan said with a smile, his tone full of mockery.

Lucia pursed her lips. This small action had confirmed Dan's words. Yes, she did want to judge the direction from the stars. Even if there was a one-in-a-million chance, she still wanted to spread the news, but she can't believe Dan thought of that.

Knowing that he had guessed Lucia's idea, Dan was elated and continued,

"Don't worry. You can go anywhere but the bilge during the day. Even if you want to jump into the sea, I won't stop You."

He knew she won't!

Thinking angrily, Lucia frowned and her bright eyes unconsciously released a little resentment.

Dan looked down at Lucia. The moment he saw her twinkling eyes, he had a strange feeling in his heart. However, this feeling was quickly dismissed by him. He waved his hand and gave a half-command.
