She Is A CEO

Chapter 88 You Are No Match for Her



Lucia's affection for Arthur was now interpreted by Juliana that she was a changeable woman. Even though Lucia was gentle and sweet, and she seemed very easy to get along with, but Juliana, who had misunderstood her, now believed Poppy's words even more.

"This is Juliana. She just returned home yesterday." Arthur walked over to meet Lucia, and when he came to her, he stretched out his arms and gave her a hug to ease her excitement.

"What are you doing?" Lucia blushed and quickly rejected Arthur, not to mention that there was Juliana standing beside her. Looking at Juliana, she greeted with a smile, "Hello Juliana, nice to meet you. I'm Lucia."

Lucia's respect for the workplace was misunderstood by Juliana again, thinking she was using the trick of refusing to greet Arthur. Restraining her urge to sneer, she stretched out her hand and replied lightly, "Hello, I'm Juliana. Nice to meet you too."

With Lucia by his side, Arthur's attention was always on her. Otherwise he might have sensed something was wrong with Juliana.

But Lucia was so smart. She found that Juliana seemed a little indifferent to her. After all, it was the first time the two met, and it was impossible to get acquainted like an old friend, so she didn't care, and said gently to Juliana,

"It's lunch break now. Shall we go have lunch together?"

Juliana smirked and nodded.

Lucia asked Arthur and Juliana to wait for her for a while, and then went back to the office to get something. At this time, Arthur noticed that something was wrong with Juliana's expression, "Julia, what's wrong?"

Juliana quickly had a wide smile and said to Arthur,

"What else can I do? It's not because your girlfriend is too beautiful. I've been compared. I'm not happy!"

She snorted deliberately.

Arthur was amused by Juliana's words, nodded pretentiously, then deliberately looked Juliana up and down, and said solemnly, "It's really not comparable."

"You!" Juliana choked.

While Arthur and Juliana were laughing, Lucia came out with the stuff. As soon as Arthur saw Lucia, he went over to help her pick up the bag.

Juliana stood aside watching Arthur and Lucia laughing, and suddenly felt a little lost in her heart. She discovered that as long as Lucia appeared, Arthur could even ignore her existence. Although this kind of jealousy did not come from love, it would make Juliana inexplicably upset.

"Let's go when Miss Webb is ready." Juliana finally interjected.

After Juliana said so, Arthur and Lucia realized that they had ignored her. Especially, Lucia felt sorry and told Arthur to keep teasing, so she quickly pulled Arthur over and said to Juliana,

"Sorry, Miss Knight. Are you hungry? Let's go now."

"Lucia, you don't have to be so polite to her, just call her Julia." Arthur laughed. As a middleman, he naturally didn't want his friend and his girlfriend to be so unfamiliar.

Lucia was a little embarrassed. After all, it was the first time they met. For Arthur, she still called her Julia cheekily. Juliana smiled and nodded, feeling very unhappy and thinking that Lucia was cottoning up. However, in order to take care of Arthur, Juliana called her Lucia affectionately. Lucia smiled even more, and felt that Juliana was easy to get along with. Besides, she had heard a lot of stories about her from Arthur, so she was very fond of a cheerful and outspoken woman like her.

The three walked to the elevator together after talking. Arthur still insisted on holding Lucia's hand and tested her body temperature from time to time, while Lucia buried her head shyly, always feeling very awkward in front of Juliana.

When Juliana went out with friends before, as a single, she had to be a third wheel, but she never felt so unnecessary before.

Arthur brought Lucia and Juliana to a famous restaurant in the city. Juliana had lived abroad for a long time. Although she had deep affection for her motherland, she still preferred foreign-style eating habits, so Arthur did not take her for local food.

For this lunch at noon, Juliana really felt that was enough.

Although Lucia kept trying to cotton up, a few words from Arthur could bring the conversation back to Lucia and their child, Theodore.

After chatting, it became the two were talking by themselves. Juliana knew that Arthur didn't mean it. After all, the relationship between them was like siblings, and there was no need to be polite. But with Lucia around, she would be inexplicably upset.

However, Lucia's graceful calmness and rich knowledge revealed in the conversation surprised Juliana. She was even more surprised when she learned that she also graduated from MIT. After listening to Poppy's description, she really thought that Lucia got what she was today because of her relationship. But now it seemed that she still had some strength.

However, this knowledge did not change Juliana's view of Lucia.

The long lunch hour was over. Of course, it was just for Juliana's feelings. As for Arthur, he didn't feel that there was enough time with Lucia, but even so, when the time came, he still had to be reluctant to send Lucia back to the company.

Downstairs at Jibillion Inc, Juliana did not get out of the car but sat in the back seat. Arthur sent Lucia to the door of the company and asked her,Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Why were you so angry just now?"

Juliana had been by his side before, so Arthur didn't ask Lucia why she was angry at the company at noon. As Lucia's boyfriend, he naturally wanted to understand her mood changes. "Hey," Lucia sighed and said helplessly,

"Just now that person is an old employee of the company's project department. He has been doing his duty for so many years. I didn't expect him to reveal the reserve price of a project we bid for this time to the opponent for his selfish desire. The project department's efforts for nearly a month came to nothing. I checked and had a conversation with him after I found he betrayed the company. I wanted to know the inside story, but I didn't expect him to just shirk responsibility."

It turned out that was the case. Arthur nodded knowingly, and added, "It's just too good to fire him."

Arthur had never tolerated betrayal, and if he was from Davonnis Corp, he would not only dismiss him, but also send him to court for punishment.

"He said that he has elderly and children to take care of. Forget it. Dismissal is the most severe punishment for him." Lucia's actions just now were actually merciful.

"You're just too good." Even though she was so angry, she was still soft-hearted. Arthur praised Lucia for her kindness, but still raised his hand and pinched her cheek and scolded falsely. "Okay, go and accompany Julia. She finally came to see you." Realizing that the two had been talking for too long, Lucia glanced at the car parked on the side of the road and said to Arthur. "Okay, then you go to work. I'll come pick you up after work in the afternoon." Arthur said with a smile. Taking advantage of Lucia's inadvertence, he kissed her on her lips, making Lucia blushed. Lucia went back to work. Arthur returned to the car, and immediately turned his head excitedly to ask Juliana who was sitting in the back, "How is it? I say Lucia is easy to get along with." Juliana hummed softly and didn't say much. She had been watching in the car when they were talking just now. Lucia seemed to be looking this way. Juliana was wondering what she told Arthur about her? Once there was an established impression, even a frank person like Juliana started to speculate on her actions.
