She Is A CEO

She Is A Ceo Novel By George Chapman -Chapter 48

There was another moment of silence. Lucia thought the signal was interrupted, and just wanted to hang up the phone to call again, when Esmae’s voice sounded, low and solemn.

“Arthur, the chairman of Davonnis Corp, Edwin’s third son, is that him?”

“Yes,” Lucia responded immediately, and then asked, “Esmae, do you know him?”

Hearing Esmae say Arthur’s father’s name, Lucia remembered that Esmae’s family was equally good – maybe they knew each other.

“Edwin is one of the best talents in the financial industry in the USA and the chairman of Davonnis Corp. How could I not know him?” Esmae’s voice was still low.

Esmae’s words didn’t sound like a compliment or appreciation, but rather sarcasm.

She sounded completely different from the excitement when she learned that Lucia was in love.

Lucia was even more puzzled, but she didn’t know the reason.

At this moment, Esmae continued, “You guys should book a ticket on the 20th and come back. I have something to tell you in person.”

Lucia planned to take the flight on the 23rd with Arthur. It was the end of the year, so Arthur was very busy at work and couldn’t leave earlier.

So, Lucia hesitated and said, “Esmae, can we go back on the 23rd instead? I would like to wait for Arthur…”

“No, you and Theodore should come back to me first, just the two of you.” Esmae gave Lucia no room for refusal. She was telling Lucia that it had to be done instead of asking for Lucia’s opinion.

This time, Lucia was even more confused.
