She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 341

"I like it. Do you like it?" Lucia replied with a smile. By the way, the romance in this situation was usually to please young girls, but Lucia was different. She also cared whether Arthur liked it or not.

"Well, I like it very much. The hotel had done a good job of this open-air restaurant." Arthur seemed to understand Lucia's concern and replied with a smile.

"In the past, my father also liked to dine with me on the roof. Sometimes he would call up all the servants in the house, insisting on having a barbecue on the roof, and treating the whole roof as a roadside food stall." Lucia suddenly remembered her father. She lowered her eyes slightly and said sadly,

"Actually, I know he didn't like to be noisy. The reason why he did that was because he didn't want me to feel lonely and my mother left too early."

Arthur didn't expect such an environment to arouse Lucia's thoughts of her father. He put down the cutlery and reached out to touch the back of Lucia's hand, and said softly,

"Lucia, since all the assets of Webbex Group have been recovered, when the Spencer incident is over, let's go home and clean up the place together, so that we can return to the home you remember, okay?"

"Okay, when things are over, we'll go and arrange the house." Lucia said softly with a slight smile.

In fact, Lucia had had this idea for a long time. Webbex manor was her home since she was a child, and it was the only place where she could feel her parents. The reason why she had not moved now was that Jacob and Poppy had replaced it with their favorite exaggeration and rich style. Secondly, there was really no time. Hearing Arthur's thoughtful suggestion, Lucia's heart was a little warmer than the slowly blowing summer wind.

Seeing Lucia smiling again, Arthur was relieved. The two chatted while having a delicious dinner. The breeze was soft and gentle, for fear of disturbing the sweet couple.

Not long after, the manager welcomed a second VIP guest. In fact, Arthur originally planned to book the entire restaurant, but a customer had already reserved a seat before. He didn't want to be too authoritarian, so he only asked the restaurant to reject the guests who wanted to make a reservation later..

And the best thing was that the VIP that Arthur did not embarrass was Nia's boyfriend Lennie, who was accompanied by Nia in a luxurious dress and makeup.

The manager knew that Lennie was the CEO of a multinational company in the city, so he was very polite to him, "The attendant will take you to the restaurant for dinner."

"Yeah." Lennie nodded, and took Nia to the top floor following the attendant's instructions.

Nia excitedly looked at the luxurious decorations around her. Lennie had been constantly refreshing her understanding of the word luxury since she was dating with him. Although Nia had no intention of seeking anything from Lennie, her inner vanity was still satisfied like never before.

At the entrance of the rooftop restaurant, the attendant was about to lead Lennie and Nia in, when Lennie suddenly looked inside and asked, "Why are there so few people tonight?"

The restaurant was very popular in the upper class. Usually, there were many people coming and going, but tonight there was no loud voice, only the melodious classical music was heard, so Lennie thought it was strange.

"The restaurant is reserved by a certain gentleman tonight. Because you reserved a seat before him, we will also entertain you tonight." The attendant replied politely.

Lennie snorted coldly after hearing the attendant's answer, and said sarcastically, "Who has such a strength to book the entire restaurant for a meal?"

The attendant hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to reveal Arthur's identity. Lennie saw that he hesitated and didn't answer, and his voice suddenly became much colder. He asked him,

"Tell me, maybe I know."

The attendant thought for a moment. Arthur and Lucia were already famous in Athegate. He might really know him, so he answered honestly,

"The restaurant was booked by Mr. Davies, the president of Davonnis Corp, and his girlfriend, Miss Webb."

"What?! Lucia is here too?!" As soon as Nia heard that, she immediately realized that the person who was dining inside was her immediate boss. She felt surprised and did not find Lennie panic.

"Miss, do you know Miss Webb?" The attendant was relieved to hear Nia calling Lucia affectionately. If they didn't know them and he revealed the information, he might be punished.

"Well, I know her," Nia replied immediately. If Lucia could know that she was also qualified to get involved in such high-level occasions, maybe she would be impressed by her. And they had no so-called relation of superiors and subordinates outside. She can also be in the limelight, so she turned her head and said to Lennie,

"Lennie, haven't you always wanted to meet Lucia? Now is a good time. Let's go and say hi to them."

Lennie took a step back when he heard Nia's excited proposal. He changed his previous attitude and said, "Forget it. Tonight Mr. Davies has a private date with Miss Webb. It's rude to disturb them. Nia, shall we have dinner somewhere else?"

"Why," Nia said reluctantly. "We've already arrived here. It's not a big deal to say hello to them. Besides, didn't you say you'd thank Lucia for dinner sometime?"

"Nia!" Lennie frowned and was displeased. He glared at Nia and said, "I said that the time is not right now. There will be more opportunities in the future. Let's change the place."

It was rare for Nia to be in the limelight in front of Lucia, so she was very reluctant to accept Lennie's proposal. She thought that he was just being too cautious and polite, so she simply stretched out her hand to hold him and walked in, saying as she walked,

"Lennie, it doesn't matter. I'll introduce you to her."

"Let go of me!" Lennie's temper exploded like it was detonated. He shook off Nia's hand. After seeing her eyes looked hurtful, he realized that he had overreacted, but he really couldn't enter for reasons. So he patted Nia's arm lightly to reassure,

"Nia, don't be angry. I didn't mean it just now. Well, then we'll go in, but you go first. I'll go to the bathroom and come back right away."

After Lennie finished speaking, he turned and left without looking back, leaving only Nia who was hurt and embarrassed, and the stunned attendant.

After a long time, the attendant asked Nia, "Miss, do you want to continue to have dinner here?"

The attendant's words brought back Nia's soul. She didn't want to lose face in front of the attendant, so she forced a smile and said, "Of course, you take me in."

Hearing the words, the attendant hurriedly led the way and brought Nia into the restaurant, while Nia turned back at every step, anxiously waiting for Lennie to come back.
