She Is A CEO

"You don't need to know these things." Spencer looked a little impatient when hearing Jacob's constant questioning. "Just know that I will help you in the dark." "Okay, I won't ask. Just remember your promise." Jacob knew he could not do anything with Spencer. After thinking about it, he could only say it in a pretentious way.

Lucia noticed that Nia was in a very good mood lately. She used to work hard, but now she was occasionally distracted, often staring at her phone and giggling every now and then during her free time. When it was nearly lunch break, Lucia who walked out of the office saw Nia clutching the phone and giggling again, so Lucia went over to her and asked.

"Nia, what's on the phone? Why are you so happy?"

Nia was taken aback and hurriedly stood up to hide her phone behind her back, "Lucy, I'm sorry. I'm not ..."

"It's okay." Lucia grinned when she saw Nia get startled. "I didn't mean to reproach you. I am just a little bit curious."

Nia realized she had overreacted. She blushed for a moment and saw that Lucia had been staring behind her, and only then did she take her phone out shyly. Lucia was amused by Nia's blush, deliberately stroked her chin in thought, and asked her, "Are you in love?"

"Lucy ..." Lucia's words hit the nerd on the head. Nia's face became even redder.

"Why are you shy? It's a good thing, isn't it?" Lucia winked at Nia and laughed.

"Lucy, I won't let it affect my work!" It was an indirect admission of the fact that she was in love.

"OK, by the way, who is he?" Lucia asked with concern. Nia was her friend and colleague, so she wanted to know who Nia fell in love with.

"Well..." Nia hesitated for a moment and said shyly with downcast eyes, "I haven't met him yet, I only chatted with him on the internet."

Lucia raised an eyebrow, but was a little surprised when she leaned back in Nia's seat and continued to ask, "Is it an online romance? Is he reliable?"

"Well, I can feel he's reliable from our talk. He lives abroad all the time and says he's going to return to Athegate in the second half of the year to develop his business, so we'll meet him by then." Nia put on a happy smile on her face.

Seeing Nia's happy smile, Lucia was also happy for her. They chatted for a while and it was time for a lunch break, so they went out for lunch together.

"Mr. Burton, the place we're going for lunch is not a fancy place, would you like to go?"

"I can go to any roadside stand!" Eduard said with a pat on his breast.

"Then let's go to a roadside stand," Lucia said deliberately.

"Lucia..." Eduard called her name resignedly. He was wearing an expensive suit. He would look quite out of place if he was having food at the roadside stall.

"Just kidding," Lucia laughed, turning to Nia and saying, "Mr. Burton's treat today. Let's have steak for lunch."

"Really?" Nia clapped her hands and smiled. "Thanks, Mr. Burton."

Eduard raised his head and took Lucia and Nia to lunch together. There was a famous Italian's Steakhouse a few blocks away. While the three of them were talking and eating, a gorgeous-looking woman approached them.

"Eduard, why didn't you ask me out at noon?" The woman came to Eduard and suddenly spoke.

Eduard looked up and saw that it was Maya Allen of the Allen Group, with whom he had recently been dating, and he smiled, stood up, and said.

"Maya, what a coincidence! You're here for lunch too?"

Maya looked at Eduard for a moment without saying anything, and her eyes shifted to Lucia.

Eduard noticed her eyes and introduced them. Lucia politely stood up and stretched out her hand to Maya, but Maya raised her chin proudly and deliberately looked away.

Lucia withdrew her hand with a smile and pulled Nia to sit down, gesturing for her to continue eating without bothering Maya.

"Maya, what are you doing?" His girlfriend embarrassed Lucia in public, Eduard was upset and asked her in a low voice. "What do I do?" Maya glared at Lucia before looking at Eduard and saying, "You didn't ask me out at noon because of her." At Maya's words, Lucia looked up at Eduard.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Eduard asked Maya, who was hostile towards Lucia in a deep voice.

"Did I say anything wrong?" Maya was bad-tempered, arrogant, and sarcastic. "I'm afraid you can't stand being tempted by a slut!"

"Maya, who are you being sarcastic about?" Maya's sarcasm made Eduard speak up for Lucia.

"What are you so angry about? Are you really captivated by her?" Maya flared up and blurted out when Eduard tried to defend Lucia.

"Everyone knows the news of Arthur and Juliana's engagement. Lucia is just a woman Arthur abandoned. She can't stand loneliness and now tries to hook up with you. I am your girlfriend. I am absolutely in a place to stop her from doing that?"

"Maya, have you lost your mind?" Not expecting Maya to mock Lucia in such a way, Eduard pushed away her hand on his arm and shouted coldly.

"I met Lucia in the lobby of the office, along with her assistant Nia. When did you see her hitting on me?"

The fact that Eduard blamed her for Lucia made Maya get furious and argue with him, "Is that so? You're the CEO of Jibillion Inc. Do you have to go out to have lunch with your subordinates? A coincidental meeting in the lobby? Who would believe it?"Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"You!" Eduard was angry with Maya. When he wanted to say something, Lucia opposite him stood up proudly.

"Miss Allen, I suggest you watch your mouth. Don't make accusations for no reason. Yes, I broke up with Arthur, but I never wanted to hook up with anyone again." Lucia was a stoic, but it didn't mean she could let others insult her.

"Is that so?" Maya sneered and continued.

"But what I heard is not like this. Poppy said that you not only wanted to hook up with Mr. Davies, but also secretly seduced her husband. Lucia, why are you so shameless? You have been divorced. Shame on you to seduce your ex-husband again. Now you even try to seduce Eduard. I'm telling you, with me around him, never think about it!"

Lucia's eyes became cold. It was Poppy who was spreading rumors!
