She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 271

After arguing with Eduard, Lucia said to Daphne,

"Daphne, now Eduard will take you back to his house first. I'll buy you some daily necessities, and then I'll go see you later."

Daphne knew that the situation was settled, and it would be bad for her to refuse, so she nodded. And the three people came out of the hospital. Eduard let Lucia get off downtown and took Daphne to his house.

Because of the leg injury, Eduard had to help her. He carried Daphne back to his house all the way. Daphne's face was as red as boiled shrimp.

Eduard saw that she was shy, and felt it amused. Was there really a woman who was so shy because of a carry?

It was no wonder that Eduard had this idea. Most of the contacts he usually met with were sociable young ladies or high-class ladies. He had been in the business for a long time, and he may have been completely forgotten how to be shy.

"You rest here. I'll clean up your room." Putting Daphne on the sofa, Eduard went to the guest room to clean up, and poured her a glass of water before leaving.

Sitting on the soft sofa, Daphne looked at this extremely luxurious apartment with curiosity, and was amazed in her heart. Compared with the small rental house she lived in, it was like paradise.

Daphne never thought of asking for anything in return for handing over the ledger to Lucia. She just kept her promise to Lucia and would definitely help her. No matter what the cost was.

Facts had proved that Lucia was the best person. Daphne thought sweetly with the glass of water in her hand. Lucia had been worrying about her just now, and her injury was the first consideration. Helping her was indeed the right thing to do.

When Eduard walked into the living room, he saw Daphne smirking with the glass of water in her hands. Although there were terrifying bruises on her face, Eduard thought this young girl was inexplicably cute.

With a clear cough, he reminded Daphne that he was out. Eduard saw her put down the glass in a panic, and looked at him while trembling, which made herself even more interesting.

Sitting on the sofa, Eduard asked Daphne about how she met Lucia. Daphne was still a little restrained, but when he mentioned Lucia, she was talkative. After learning that she was rescued by Lucia, Eduard was immediately happy,

"Sure enough, it's Lucia's style. You two are really destined to meet each other."

"That was my lucky day!" Daphne became excited when he mentioned Lucia's heroic demeanor that day, and her eyes began to glisten again,

"At that time, Lucia punched those gangsters in a few strokes, and sent me all the way to a crowded place. Lucia is really good!"

He could see Daphne's admiration for Lucia, and Eduard also knew why she would sacrifice herself for Lucia. Sometimes it didn't need complicated reasons to do one thing. It was enough for one person.

"I think you're brave too," Eduard said with a smile.

"Huh?" Daphne didn't respond for a moment.

"I think you're brave too. You were frightened in the face of a few thugs, but dared to confront Jacob and his subordinates. I think you're very brave." Eduard explained.

The expression on Daphne's face turned grim when she heard this. She lowered her head and said in a low voice,

"No, I'm not brave at all. I was scared to death when Jacob brought people to my home. I said I didn't steal anything, and they started to beat me. I was so scared that my whole body was shaking, but... I was useless. I I thought I could at least do something to help Lucia, so I held on to it."
