She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 346

Eduard glanced at Nia and said directly, "I don't come to find Lucia today."

Eduard had contacted Daphne long ago to make sure that Lucia wasn't there so he came here on purpose.

"Then you are..." Nia asked hesitantly, with a faint premonition.

"I want to talk to you." Eduard raised his eyes, and there was a flash of light in his eyes, which made Nia chill.

"Mr. Burton, what do you want to talk to me about?" Nia lowered her eyes, didn't dare to look Eduard's eyes directly, and asked.

"Can I come into Lucia's office?" Eduard asked instead getting straight to the point.

"You are Lucia's friend. Of course you can." How dared Nia stop him?

"Then go into the office and talk." Eduard said so and walked towards Lucia's office first. Nia stood by her seat and hesitated for a while before daring to follow.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Eduard sitting on the sofa calmly. After seeing her come in, he turned his head and stared at her coldly. Sweat started to seep on Nia's forehead. What was Eduard trying to do?

"I heard there is conflict between you and Daphne?" Seeing Nia standing in front of him trembling, Eduard spoke in displeasure. Now she knew she had guilty conscience? Why didn't she take herself into account when she was embarrassing Daphne?

When she heard Daphne's name, Nia instantly understood. It turned out to be her!

Unexpectedly, she prevented Daphne from complaining to Lucia, but she couldn't prevent her from complaining to Eduard, because she was careless.

Nia lowered her eyes, so Eduard didn't see the sternness in her eyes at that moment. Seeing that she didn't say a word, Eduard continued,

"Nia, you once worked with me. I know your character very well. I believe you are not a narrow-minded person, but I just can't figure it out when did Daphne provoke you? Why do you have to do everything in work to embarrass her?"

"She didn't mess with me..." Nia answered in a low voice.

"If not, why are you making things difficult to her?" Eduard asked coldly and his voice lowered a little.

Nia bit her lip, thinking about rhetoric quickly in her mind. She paused for a while and said,

"Mr. Burton, do you think I'm embarrassing Daphne? You are the chairman of Jibillion. Maybe you don't know much about the survival rules of low-level employees in the workplace. Daphne is simple-minded, and her way of doing things is slightly inappropriate. As her senior, I just want to teach her more and let her learn more. Why is this so difficult?"

Nia said so with grievances that even she believed in her words.

Eduard stared at Nia for a while, weighing whether she was shirking the blame or she really thought so. If anyone else said this, he would have reprimanded them, but Nia had been with Lucia for more than a year. He knew her character and effort, so he hesitated.

Seeing that Eduard didn't say a word, Nia knew that she had persuaded him, so she deliberately squeezed her hands together and explained,

"Mr. Burton, I don't know what Daphne told you, but I really didn't make things difficult for her. I asked her to do those jobs that she didn't understand or didn't know. I hope she can adapt to it as soon as possible. As for the intensity of work from Lucia, when she grows up, I have colleagues who can share the work together, which in itself is beneficial to me. How could I attack her and make things difficult for her?"

After listening to Nia's words, Eduard felt that what she said was reasonable. Maybe for Daphne who was simple, Nia's strictness might be the same as making things difficult.

With a sigh, Eduard's tone softened a lot,

"Nia, I understand what you're thinking, but you must know Daphne is a relatively simple woman. If you want to help her, just tell her directly, so that she can accept your methods faster and there will be no misunderstanding."

"Yes, I understand. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future." Nia breathed a sigh of relief, and accepted Eduard's suggestion "sincerely".

"One more thing," Eduard added. "You know Lucia is very nice to Daphne, and she's like my dear sister, so I hope you get along with her, okay?"

Eduard didn't fully believe Nia's words, and he was a little hesitate which made him have to show Nia that Daphne was special. But he didn't know that this would only arouse Nia's deeper disgust for Daphne.

"I know. In fact, I also like Daphne very much. She is simple and kind. I will pay attention to my methods in the future."

"Okay, sorry for speaking to you in such a harsh tone just now. You can go out to work first." Gentleman Eduard expressed his apology.

Nia got away with it and naturally did not dare to pursue it any further. She bowed to Eduard and hurriedly left the office. Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out the door, she met Lucia and Daphne who had come back from work.

Seeing Lucia and Daphne walking over talking and laughing, Nia's heart was being torn apart by envy, but she had a smile on her face and said to Lucia,

"Lucia, Mr. Burton is here."

"Really?" Lucia's eyes lit up when she heard it. She hadn't seen Eduard for a long time because he was busy chasing after a simple young woman.

"Yes, he's in the office now," Nia replied.

"Eduard..." As soon as Nia finished speaking, Daphne ran past her like a jumping bunny and walked into the office. Nia immediately frowned, and turned to look at Lucia.

Daphne's move was really rude and disrespectful to her and her superior, but Nia saw Lucia smile and seemed to take Daphne's behavior for granted. And Lucia liked her liveliness.

Realizing this, Nia hated Daphne even more.

Daphne! How annoying were you going to make me!

Lucia also entered the office. Nia stared at the door and was unaware that her eyes were like a poisonous snake's.

"Eduard, why are you here?" Daphne ran to Eduard's side as soon as she entered the office and asked with a smile.

Eduard returned with a gentle smile, raised his hand and rubbed Daphne's head and said, "Come to pick you up. Have you forgotten what I told you last night?"

"Last night?" Daphne tilted her head and thought for a while, then remembered what Eduard said to her last night, but she was still hesitant,

"Eduard, I don't think I'm suitable. You have so many beautiful girlfriends. You can invite them."

Lucia heard Daphne's words as soon as she entered the door, and of course, she didn't miss the bitter look on Eduard's face.

"Is Daphne going tonight, too?" Lucia called out to help Eduard.
