She Is A CEO

The lady was puzzled, and her daughter stared at Lucia.

As Lucia came along, she eclipsed the whole of her sex.

When Lucia came to him, Arthur’s eyes became soft.

He answered softly, “This is Lucia, executive of Jibillion Inc.”

“What?” The noble lady thought Lucia was a socialite, but Arthur’s introduction to Lucia was unexpected. The lady was shocked. ‘Lucia? The woman who cheated on her husband and hit the headline five years ago?’

Lucia didn’t mind the questioning look in the lady’s eyes. Standing next to Arthur, she replied confidently, “Hello, ma’am. I’m Lucia, Arthur’s friend.”

The lady froze for a moment, looked in a certain direction, and then excused herself and her daughter.

Seeing the two leave, others made excuses and left, leaving only Arthur and Lucia in the corner.

“Lucia, do not take it personally.” Arthur knew why that lady acted that way. He lifted his hand to tuck a wisp of her loosened hair behind her ear, and soothed her in a gentle voice.

“Why should I?” Lucia smiled at Arthur and said, “You know the truth, don’t you?” Then, she nudged Arthur naughtily.

The fact that Arthur knew the truth reassured her and gave her the confidence to face up to gossip.

Arthur laughed. Knowing Lucia didn’t mind it, he changed the topic, “Eduard is like a proud peacock tonight.”

“Have you been watching him?” Lucia suddenly asked.
