She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 79

"Erik still won't listen to the advice..." Sophie sighed, but as a relative, she still advised Edwin, "Edwin, you should help him, uncle loved him the most during his lifetime, and there are only three brothers of your generation. Your eldest brother had a big fight with him a long time ago. Now you don't help him. Who will help him?"

Edwin's brows furrowed even deeper after hearing this. The reason why they had a big fight was the personality issue.

When Erik's trucking company first started, he took advantage of the family to buy goods from his elder brother Elliot Davies, and transfer various materials from the British Isles to USA, but a serious thing happened 20 years ago.

20 years ago, Erik helped someone buy a batch of goods from Elliot. That batch of goods was very expensive, so Erik became malicious and took advantage of the long-distance shipping time to switch the real products from it. Later, it was discovered by the buyer. He transferred all the responsibility to his own elder brother, thinking that he was able to bear the consequences, but his company could not.

Unexpectedly, this matter was widely publicized by the other party, and alerted the authorities of the two countries, which caused a nearly fatal blow to Elliot's company. If Edwin had not come forward at that time, Elliot would not have been able to get through the difficulty, but in the end, Elliot had a big fight with Erick who had totally different views towards everything.

"He's doing it all over again now. I really don't want to help him." Edwin didn't like Erik's character either.

"Edwin..." Compared with the views, Sophie was more family friendly, which was also the softest part of women's nature, so she still wanted to persuade Edwin to come forward.

"Okay," Edwin was finally persuaded by Sophie. After all, the truth was exactly as she said. There were only three brothers left in their generation. If the eldest brother didn't help, Erik's company may not really be able to survive. "I'll give him a call."

"Be nice." Sophie told Edwin specifically, for fear that the two would quarrel, because Edwin was too righteous.

"Don't worry. I know how to talk to him." Edwin nodded in response. He was always an action-oriented man. He immediately went upstairs to the study and called his cousin Erik.

Sophie looked at Edwin's back and was a little worried. She was still afraid that the two brothers would quarrel. She knew all about Erik's personality.

In the afternoon, Edwin and Erik talked for nearly two hours, and Edwin told him about the relationship between Arthur and Lucia, between Lucia and Esmae, and between himself and Sophie and Esmae, and asked him to contact the Brown family and see if he can communicate further with Esmae.

"Edwin, are you asking me to do it?" After Edwin finished speaking, Erik, who was far away in San Francisco, asked quietly.

Edwin frowned immediately, and when he heard Erik's tone, he knew that he was going to make a condition, so before Erik could explain the words, he directly replied,

"In the afternoon, I will let the finance transfer a sum of ten million dollars to you."

As soon as he heard the money, Erik's voice suddenly became excited, "Edwin, I know you are the most generous man!"

In fact, the money Edwin gave Erik had far exceeded the amount he had asked for help before. Edwin increased the amount in order to make Erik, who saw the money, concentrate on doing things for him.

"Then what I asked you to do..." Edwin said slowly deliberately.

"Don't worry. I'm the best at inquiring about news. As long as you help me solve the company's problems, anything is okay." Erik's attitude was obviously different from just now, and he even thought about how to use the money left over after paying the compensation.

Erik's vacillating stance and mercenary attitude really made Edwin dissatisfied. Although Sophie had told him to avoid conflicts with him, as a cousin, Edwin couldn't help but want to say a few words to him.

"Erik, after this incident, you should reflect on it. USA is very strict in the management of this aspect. The other party is willing to reconcile this time, but it may not be the next time."

"I know. It's just an accident this time," Erik said indifferently.

"Just an accident?!" Edwin was furious after hearing this, "You mean you do this often, and now it's just an incident?!"

"We should be shrewd when it comes to doing business. It's said that all businessmen are dishonest, so why should you be so surprised." Erik had no guilt at all, but thought that Edwin was too pedantic. Competing in the USA, when can they make big money by doing business honestly?!

Edwin, who was persuaded in turn, was suffocated, not knowing what to say. As expected, their views were different and he had nothing to say.

"Edwin, are you still there?" Erik asked when the other end of the phone had no response.

Edwin sighed silently before saying, "I won't say much. Be careful."

"Thank you for your help." Erik thanked him perfunctorily, and the two hung up. He just hung up when his son Spencer Davies, who had been standing beside him, spoke,

"Dad, uncle promised to help us?"

Spencer was Erik's only son. He was loved by many people, and his thoughts had already been influenced by his father. He made this incident, but he didn't expect that the quality of the fakes mixed in was too bad, and he suddenly was discovered.

"Help?" Erik sneered, not accepting Edwin's favor at all, "He's just asking for our help. The first time he refused me is proof of his ruthlessness. This time, he is looking for our help. Is this called help?!”

"What does uncle ask us to do for him?" Spencer asked curiously. In fact, they didn't usually communicate much, even on major festivals. It was a miracle that he can ask his father for help.

Erik lit a cigarette and told his son the details of Edwin's request for help. Spencer pondered for a while after listening, stared into his father's eyes, and said meaningfully,

"Dad, this is a great opportunity..."

Admit the smoke, Erik looked back at his son who had the same eyes as his own, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

Half a month later, Arthur's foot injury had basically healed. In order to nourish his bones, Lucia asked Sophie for the secret recipe for making soup, but no matter how she made, it didn't taste good. Lucia was pitiful every time she tasted the soup. It was hilariously called a black hole of cooking by Arthur.

Tomorrow was the last day of her vacation. Seeing Arthur watching TV on the sofa, Lucia took the phone and called Eduard,

"Eduard, I can go to work tomorrow."

When Lucia called "Eduard", Arthur, on the sofa behind her, silently picked up the remote and turned down the volume.

"Is Arthur all healed? If you can't come back, I'll give you five more days off." Eduard said generously on the phone.
