She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 947

Eve saw that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming. At this time, she missed her parents very much. She wanted to go home but couldn't let go of Nia. So when Nia came to see her, she asked her cautiously,
"Nia, are you going home for the Mid-Autumn Festival this year?"
No wonder Eve was so careful, because Nia had never been back to her hometown for the Mid-Autumn Festival since she came to Athegate but only will go back for a few days when it was Christmas.
Unexpectedly, Nia immediately agreed,
"Of course, we will go back together this year."
"Really?!" Eve's beautiful eyebrows instantly raised up.
"Yes," Nia said with a wry smile, "In the past, I was too stressed and afraid that I would worry mom and dad. Now that you know my situation, at least you are considerate of me. I can go back bravely."
"Nia..." Hearing what Nia said, Eve let go of her joy and looked at her worriedly, "When you went back that day... he didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
Nia didn't answer, but there was bitterness between her brows and eyes. How could Eve not see it?
Seeing that Eve was worried about her, Nia smiled and changed the subject and talked about going home again. She suggested,
"Eve, why don't you invite Mr. Osade to go back with us? He should be very happy."
"Isn't that good?" Mid-Autumn Festival was a day when family is together, so what was the matter with bringing him back?
"Didn't you all find out that you are interested in each other? What's wrong? And you can take this opportunity to get closer to each other." Nia said bluntly.
That was different! Eve retorted softly in her heart that they weren't really in the relationship...
Seeing Eve's preoccupied eyes narrowed, Nia said,
"But it's true. How can you introduce him to mom and dad after we go back... If you say he's your boyfriend, Mr. Osade will be embarrassed, and besides, they will only worry more."
Nia alluded to Eve's physical condition. Their parents had always taken good care of Eve, and they also understood that her body was not suitable for dating with others, let alone hurting others. If she met someone who was not careful, Eve's life will only be more painful in the future, so they carefully protected her.
The inferiority complex in her heart was mentioned by Nia, and Eve showed a deep gully between her eyebrows. After pondering for a while, she said,
"Let's forget about this..."
"Well, can you tell Mr. Osade about going home and see how he responds?" Nia already had her own plan in mind.
"That's fine." She really needed to say goodbye to him before she left, and this time she went back, she didn't know if her parents will let her go out again.
Eve didn't forget their fury when she contacted her parents after arriving in Athegate. Fortunately, her sister took care of her. Otherwise her parents would have rushed to pick her up.
In the afternoon when Nia and Eve stayed together again, Lauren's expression darkened immediately. If it wasn't for Eve's emotions, it would not be impossible for Lauren to send someone to stop her at the gate with Lauren's temper.
"Mr. Osade, our Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. This is a day to pray with my family, so my sister and I are going home together." Eve smiled and said to Lauren. When she thought of praying with the whole family, the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise.
"When?" Lauren asked flatly.
"18th." Nia answered first.
Lauren glanced at her and said nothing. Eve felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so she continued what her sister said,
"Mr. Osade, thank you for taking care of me during this time. If... if there is a chance in the future, let's..."
Before Eve finished speaking, Lauren stopped her,
"If?"
He didn't like that word very much.
Eve lowered her eyes and intentionally avoided Lauren's gaze. If she had been bolder, she might have said that she would definitely come back to see him. However, the future was unpredictable, and her low self-esteem prevented her from making promises to anyone.
"Mr. Osade, you must have never celebrated our traditional Mid-Autumn Festival, right?" Seeing Lauren staring at Eve, and knowing that her sister was a coward, Nia suddenly interjected.
"No." Lauren answered Nia's question, but kept his eyes on Eve. "This is my first time here."
"Mid-Autumn Festival is a grand traditional festival in our country. At this time, wanderers who travel abroad will rush home to reunite with their families. Eve and I are no exception. When the moon is the roundest, every family will worship the moon. It is very lively. If only you can see that kind of scene."
Nia quietly threw out the bait.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lauren finally shifted his gaze to Nia's face, stared at her for a few seconds, and then said,
"Can I go together? I haven't seen it anyway."
When Nia heard this, she could hardly suppress the excitement in her heart, but she pretended to be embarrassed on the surface, and looked at Eve.
The groundwork was done. It depended on her performance!
Lauren followed Nia's gaze to look at Eve, who had kept her head buried, with a slight smile on her face, and asked her,
"Can I go with you?"
Of course Eve was willing, but in what capacity will he go home with her? She can't just tell her parents that he was just an ordinary friend, right?
"Eve?" Seeing that Eve kept silent, Nia, who was afraid of missing the best time, couldn't help reminding her, "Mr. Osade is asking you something."
Eve frowned, then slowly raised her eyes to Lauren, and said in a low voice,
"Mr. Osade, it's not suitable for you to go back with us..."
As soon as Nia heard this, she scolded Eve completely in her heart.
"Why?" Lauren asked, frowning.
After thinking about it, Eve really didn't know how to speak. She could only look at her sister pitifully. She was articulate, so she could definitely explain.
"What Eve means is that you must have some identity to come home with us on such an important festival." Nia said without hesitation with a smile on her face.
"What kind of identity do you want?" Lauren's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He didn't expect to have so many rules when going to someone else's house.
Nia smiled understandingly and said, "If you can accept it, I will pretend to be a couple with you, and I will introduce you to our parents as my boyfriend, so it will be justified."
"What?!" It was Eve and Lauren who spoke together.
Nia, what was this proposal?!
Nia quickly explained, "Mr. Osade, don't get me wrong. Since we are going back together for the holiday, we can't say that you are just an ordinary friend. Eve is not in good health. Our parents don't like her being in contact with men, so you can just pretend to be my boyfriend. It's only a few days away."
