She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 347

"Lucia, I don't dare to go." Daphne turned around, revealing her timidity.

"It's alright," Lucia smiled and comforted, "On this occasion, you can just go eat delicious food, taste good wine, and leave the rest to your Eduard."

Lucia deliberately used the word "your" to see Daphne's reaction, but seeing that Daphne accepted the title naturally, she knew that Eduard had already succeeded most.

Imperceptibly, slowly approaching, Eduard really looked like a wolf patiently catching a sheep.

Daphne heard what Lucia said. Although she hesitated, she asked, "Will you be there tonight?"

"She will definitely be there tonight. Mr. Mathis will hold a 100-day celebration party for his eldest grandson. All the celebrities in Athegate are invited. Lucia and Arthur will go." Eduard immediately said so and wanted to use this method to make Daphne relived.

Daphne's expression changed when she heard Eduard's words. She looked at Lucia and asked her, "Will you be dressed up tonight?"

When Eduard saw Daphne's nympho look, he immediately started to be jealous. After persuading her for so long, he finally lost to Lucia's beauty?!

"Well, you'll be beautiful too." Lucia replied with a gentle smile.

"I'm in!" Daphne turned to Eduard firmly after hearing Lucia's words.

Eduard was helpless and said sadly, "Daphne, you promise to be my partner at the dinner party, so you could go to see Lucia?"

"Yeah!" Daphne nodded, answering very honestly.

Hearing this, Eduard immediately felt suffocated as if he was suffering from a heart attack. The feeling was stuck in his chest and it couldn't go away. Lucia was also amused, so she could only pat Eduard on the shoulder and express her most sincere sympathy to him.

Daphne had decided to accompany him to the dinner party. Although he was not reconciled to her purpose, Eduard still actively arranged the next thing. The first thing to do was to take Daphne to buy a dress and put on make up.

"You guys go first. See you tonight." Lucia and Arthur had already made an appointment, but it wasn't time yet, so she wanted to read more documents.

"Lucia..." Seeing that Lucia was still busy, Daphne hesitated again. How could she get off work before Lucia?

"It's alright," Eduard took Daphne's hand and led her out, whispering to her, "Your Lucia is a strong woman. She won't get tired of such a little work."

Hearing this, Lucia immediately glared at Eduard. He interpreted the phrase "lust over friends" too well, right? !

Eduard's response to Lucia was to wave his hand and take his little sheep away triumphantly.

Out of the office, Daphne said that she was going to get her bag, so Eduard accompanied her back to the seat, and he did not hide his doting on her.

After packing up her things, Daphne hesitated for a while after taking up the bag, but politely said to Nia, "Nia, I have something to do, so Lucia asked me to get off work first. Thank you for today's work."

"It's okay." Nia replied with a big smile.

Daphne glanced suspiciously at Nia, nodded and walked to Eduard's side, and deliberately walked to the angle where Nia couldn't see her.

Eduard felt Daphne's discomfort, so he wrapped his arms around her waist and left with her.

In the elevator, Daphne still couldn't help expressing her doubts, "Eduard, why do I feel that Nia has a good attitude towards me today?"

It was known that Nia had never shown a smile to her since offending her.

"Really?" Eduard responded casually, without telling her that he had spoken to Nia.

"It's really weird..." Daphne was easy to get entangled with some small problems because of her simplicity. Eduard looked at her troubled face and found it very cute. The saying that "beauty is the eyes of the beholder" was really right.

As night fell and the lights were turned on, the whole city slowed down because of the rising crescent moon.

Arthur and Lucia came to Derek Mathis's house on time for the dinner. Derek Mathis was always a senior financial guru in Athegate, with a powerful investment company under his name. Many people in the industry had to ask him humbly for advice, so he knew a lot of people and invited all the powerful people in the city.

Before departure, Arthur reminded Lucia.

"Lucia, do you know you'll meet Spencer tonight?" Although the name was never mentioned again, both Arthur and Lucia knew that he was a mine buried in their future path that could explode at any time.

"Treat as he doesn't exist." Lucia's distaste for Spencer was straightforward.

"If he comes to pester you, don't get angry and leave it to me, okay?" Arthur knew Spencer well. He knew he would take advantage of this opportunity to get close to Lucia.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Mr. Davies." Lucia couldn't help laughing. When did she need protection so much?

When they arrived at the dinner party, Arthur and Lucia first greeted the host to express their congratulations, and then went to Eduard and Daphne. After finding them, seeing Daphne's appearance tonight, Lucia couldn't help but say,

"Looks like Eduard really found a treasure."

"Looks like Eduard isn't taking in a little sheep, but a little swan." Arthur agreed jokingly.

Not far from them, Eduard was taking Daphne to chat with other people, but it could be seen that the people around them were very interested in Daphne, and the eyes of men were frequently on her.

Tonight, Daphne was wearing a light blue open-back dress with wings on the skirt, which made her look very smart. Her long black hair fell behind her back, and she had a delicate crystal clips on her eara. She put on light makeup, which not only highlighted her delicate and small facial features, but also did not cover up her youth and innocence too much. She looked beautiful and cute.

Following Eduard's side, Daphne would not be overshadowed by him at all. Instead, she was like a little angel who fell into the world, with a little bit of timidity and cuteness.

Taking Daphne to the dinner tonight, Eduard clearly knew the difference between love and liking. He used to like Lucia, and he hoped that she would always be dazzling and appear in front of everyone with the most beautiful posture, but he fell in love with Daphne. When seeing others use the coveted way to look at her, he just wanted to hide her in a place where only he could see her innocence.
