She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 327

"Helena's personality is extraordinarily straightforward, affectionate, and swift and resolute. Such a woman can really impress Otis." Lucia said with a smile. They had different personalities, and they were a perfect match. Knowing that they were dating, she felt very happy, but...

"If your parents know about this, they will be dumbfounding," Lucia added.

"Yeah, your business hasn't been resolved yet, and Helena and I are even more worrying for my parents, so I've been keeping it a secret. Recently, I often fly to Los Angeles to meet Helena. I'll drop by the way home a few times before. My dad asked me why I kept coming back, so I didn't go back to New York at all. This time I came here knowing you were back," Otis explained.

Arthur looked complicated, happy and worried for Otis at the same time. There were countless women who had appeared beside Otis over the years, but no one can move this iceberg. He didn't expect that this time his love appeared, and it was Esmae's daughter!

"Not only our parents, if Esmae knows about this, she would probably be so angry. She has been grumbling with our parents for many years, but in fact, they have a deep relation. Lucia, Otis and Helena, all fall in love with each other. Now, this kind of plot is comparable to the modern version of Juliet and Romeo. But I don't know how it will turn out." Arthur sighed helplessly.

"I was hesitant at first, but you know Helena's character," Otis said, looking at Lucia.

"When she realized she likes me, she left her business affairs and flew directly to the company to block me. I explained to her many times that our parents have deep grievances and she would not agree with us to be together. You and Arthur are the best example, but Helena didn't listen at all. She dares to love and hate. She really blocked me to the point where I ended up..."

Otis's usual solemn expression turned out to be sweet when he told this story. Helena's character really suited him.

"This is indeed Helena's style," Lucia couldn't help laughing, almost imagining the scene when Helena blocked Otis several times,

"Otis, it's no wonder you can't refuse."

Otis nodded, with the smile on his face lingering for a long time.

"I really want to meet this 'Helena'." Arthur listened to Lucia and Otis talking, and was very interested himself.

"Let's go to Los Angeles tomorrow. Helena is already waiting for us with Teddy, but I can't tell my parents about this. My parents miss Teddy too much. I'm afraid the situation will be out of control." said Otis.

"Well, Mom is actually more rational. Dad's love for Teddy is so endless, and it's impossible to pull him back just by visiting him." Arthur agreed.

"Then we'll leave tomorrow." She hadn't thought about going to Helena privately before, because it would make Helena very embarrassed. Now that Otis was here, and Lucia had a natural reason.

That night, Edwin instructed the chef at home to prepare a sumptuous dinner. It was all local food with a lot of meat. During the dinner, he kept asking Lucia to eat more, hoping to make up for the weight she lost. Even Sophie personally started to serve Lucia with dishes.

Lucia politely accepted them one by one, and kept asking Arthur for help.

"Dad, Mom, Lucia won't gain weight just because of one meal." Arthur was also very helpless. His parents were very strict with the four brothers since they were young, let alone food for them. They would be punished for not eating by the allotted time. Seeing them feel so sorry for Lucia, he was both happy and "sad".

"Still need to eat more!" Sophie glared at Arthur and brought another piece of meat to Lucia, who now had a small mountain of meat piled up in Lucia's plate.

"Dad, Mom, if I get married in the future, will you take care of your daughter-in-law?" Otis suddenly asked.

Lucia and Arthur turned their heads immediately, showing great attention.

Sophie raised her eyebrows, looked at her husband Edwin, then turned to Otis and said, "Your dad and I...I didn't expect you to have a wife..."

As soon as Sophie finished her words, Lucia and Arthur couldn't help but burst into laughter. What she said was so true!

"Mom..." Otis really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Did I say something wrong?" Sophie smiled softly, "You are a female insulator. My dad and I used to guess about your sexual orientation. Otherwise, as a big brother, you didn't even have a relationship."

"I didn't meet the right person," Otis said helplessly, "Isn't Arthur also a female insulator before he met Lucia ?"

"Arthur is unlike you. He has a low emotional intelligence..." Edwin was unequivocal when he complained about his son.

"Dad!" Arthur angrily expressed his dissatisfaction.

"What if I find the right person?" Otis continued to ask without giving up.

"If you find it, my dad and I will treat her well," Sophie replied directly, "I'm afraid you will be too cold to let her be with you."

Otis didn't care about his mother's jokes. All he wanted was what she said to her daughter-in-law.

"Okay, then you don't embarrass her," said Otis.

"Her?" Sophie sensed something unusual.

"The future her." Otis responded quickly, preventing Sophie from further speculation.

"Okay," Sophie gave Otis a suspicious look, then turned to serve Lucia with with food again, "Lucia, eat more."

Unexpectedly, when the cycle came back to the stage of serving food, Lucia looked at her plate in disbelief. Arthur, who was beside her, could only silently nod to her, and tell her with his eyes, "Lucia, eat!"

Lucia that night was really full. Even though she was traveling all the way, she had to choose to take a walk to digest her food as soon as possible, and Arthur was naturally by her side.

Walking hand in hand under the starlight, the gentle breeze blew her face. Lucia couldn't help taking a deep breath and enjoying this rare leisure time.

"Lucia, are you tired today?" Seeing Lucia taking a deep breath, Arthur asked her immediately.

"No," Lucia smiled and shook her head, "Don't be nervous. I just want some fresh air."

Arthur breathed a sigh of relief. If Lucia was tired, he'd change the flight now and go to Los Angeles later, even though he missed Teddy too.
