She Is A Ceo Novel By George Chapman -Chapter 423

Because of Lucia’s return, this kind of talk and sniping had been heard throughout the company. Kane came out of his office just in time to hear a group of employees hurl with such harsh words without any hesitation. He slammed the documents in his hand onto a table beside him. The loud noise startled the employees. They turned around and saw Kane standing there gloomily, and their faces turned pale.

Kane glared at the gossiping employees, then scanned all the desks with his sharp eyes. He snapped,

“If it’s after work, I won’t interfere with whatever you guys want to say. But this is work time. As employees of Webbex Group, your first task is to handle your own work, not to gather around and criticize your boss. If you feel that you can chat freely during work time as well as after work time, it’s fine. Go find the financial department and settle the wage and leave immediately. I won’t interfere!”

Kane’s words were so heavy that no one dared to look up but bowed their heads in shame. No one knew whether they were truly repentant or resigned.

“Get back to work now!” Kane said angrily. Everyone immediately dispersed and returned to their seats. There was no sound on the entire floor except for the sound of typing on the keyboard.

Kane scowled, picked up the file and headed for the elevator. He was worried. There was already bad opinion inside Webbex Group. What about outside? What will they say about Lucia?

Lucia didn’t hear the whispers. She guessed Spencer would take the advocate in Athegate, but it was already public knowledge, and she didn’t know that the company was already under attack.

As Lucia exited the elevator, Nia caught sight of someone coming up and standing up to stop her, only to see that it was her.

“Lucia! You’re back!” Nia shouted excitedly, and Daphne heard her voice and turned to look at Lucia with the same excitement.

Lucia nodded at Nia, and then looked deeply into Daphne’s eyes. Daphne looked at her with a mixture of excitement and hesitation, and Lucia guessed that she must have known everything.

Lucia’s lips moved slightly, but she didn’t know what to say under Daphne’s eyes. Just then the elevator door behind her opened, and Lucia turned around to see Kane, who had just come out.

They looked at each other for a moment, and Lucia turned and walked into the office. Kane immediately followed, nodding gently to Daphne as he passed.

Nia always felt that there was something very wrong with the atmosphere. Daphne looked weird when she saw Lucia, but with her identity, she had no idea what was going on, and she felt even more aggrieved.

Nia had become a prisoner of jealousy.

Kane followed Lucia into her office, closed the door behind him, and walked over to her.

“Sit down.” Lucia sat down on the sofa and lowered her eyes. Kane was not only a subordinate but also a friend to her. He was also a friend that she could not face.

Sitting Down, Kane didn’t say anything else. Instead, he presented the information to Lucia, and quickly reported on the company’s major problems and direction over the past month. Lucia listened carefully. After going through all the information, she said gratefully,

“Thank you, Kane, for managing the Group so well.”

To be honest, Lucia was a little surprised to read the report. Every decision Kane had made himself in the past month had been correct and accurate, and she would have done the same if she had handled it herself. She thought Kane was just a lawyer.

“I should do so,” Kane said, without telling Lucia that today’s report was the result of working late into the wee hours almost every day for a month. Helping her had never been an empty promise.

After a long silence, Lucia said, “If you have any other questions, ask me too.”

Lucia knew Kane won’t be quiet about Arthur.

“Lucia,” Kane said, putting aside his subordinate role and speaking as a friend, “Are you willing to do that?”

Kane’s question was to the point and did not drag on.

“Willing? Teddy is fine. I’m getting engaged to the man I love tomorrow, and everything is perfect,” Lucia answered with a smile.

“Lucia, I’ve known you for seven years, before Arthur, Eduard, and anyone else. I didn’t know you as a friend at that time, but I do know you,” Kane said, looking into Lucia’s eyes.

Lucia averted her gaze slightly and did not respond.

“If you really had a grudge, I wouldn’t be sitting here today but I’d be in jail. I don’t believe you don’t Love Arthur,” Kane said bluntly.

“Your business is not the same as Arthur’s,” Lucia said:

“Arthur to Teddy is the lack of fatherhood in the past five years. It’s the biggest unwillingness in my heart. Do you know what it’s like to raise a child whose father doesn’t even know about it? If you and Julia hadn’t moved on, do you think Julia would have been able to take care of the baby? No, she can’t. She’ll resent it. She’ll resent it more!”

Lucia didn’t have to answer anyone’s questions, but Eduard and the others meant different to her. She had to choose to face them one by one and explain them one by one.

In contrast to Juliana, Kane seemed to know Lucia’s feeling, but something didn’t feel right.

Lucia continued, “Kane, this is between Arthur and me. I regard you as my friend, but don’t bring it up again. Otherwise, we won’t even be friends anymore.”

Kane felt suffocated when he heard this. He couldn’t blame Arthur for being shaken. Even when he heard what she was saying and looked at her indifferent expression, he couldn’t tell if it was true or not.

“Well, I won’t mention it again,” Kane said as he stood up. “There’s just one thing I have to say as a friend. Lucia, Arthur doesn’t give up on you, and you can’t give up on yourself.”

With that, Kane turned and left the office, while Lucia sat on the sofa staring at the closed door. Her eyes sparkled, but there were no more tears. Her tears had long since dried up.

Her hands grew into fists again, and her nails poked into her palms. This had become a habit of Lucia’s lately, and she could not suppress the excitement in her heart without doing so.

Arthur, give me up… It’ll make you feel better… …
