She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 100

It took a long time before Kane replied the message: "Okay, this is the last time!"

Poppy almost jumped up at the words.

Although the plan failed, Lucia will not end well!

After this day, Lucia was taken by a car to the gate of Jardín de Nieve's community at noon on the third day. Lucia got out of the car and was wearing the same clothes that she wore on the day she disappeared, but she was no longer in high spirits. Instead, she looked gloomy and downcast. After she got out of the car, she didn't say much, just nodded to the people in the cab and turned to go home.

When she got home, the house was completely empty. She thought Arthur would be waiting for her at home. Lucia was a little disappointed. She immediately took out her phone to charge it. This was the first time Lucia turned it on in three days.

As soon as the phone was turned on, a series of text message alerts dinged non-stop. Lucia's heart was throbbing because of these rapid alerts. She tapped the text messages one by one with trembling hands. Almost every one of them was with a missed call, including from Eduard and Arthur. Their messages alternated on the screen. She could imagine how anxious they were during the three days that she disappeared.

Lucia stared at the phone for a moment, then called Eduard first.

"Lucia, is that you?!" Eduard's voice sounded excited.

"Eduard, I'm sorry. I've been with my friends these days," Lucia replied hesitantly. "It was not convenient for me to answer the phone. I've been absent from work these days, and I'll be punished accordingly when I arrive at the company tomorrow."

"Don't worry about the company!" Eduard said immediately, "Do you know how worried we are these days?! Your assistant was so anxious that she cried, and the company called the police directly."

Lucia lowered her head, and pursed her lips and said, "Sorry to let you worry about me. I'm fine now. You can withdraw the case."

"Lucia, are you really all right?" Eduard always felt that Lucia's tone of voice was weird, like she was tired.

"It's really okay. Thank you. I'll go to work on time tomorrow." Lucia replied with a slight frown.

"Don't go to work tomorrow. I'll give you a week's vacation. You can rest first." Eduard said directly.

"Thank you then." Now that she really needed to rest, Lucia replied tiredly, without delaying.

The two quickly ended the conversation, but after hanging up the phone, Lucia, who should have called Arthur first to inform him of her whereabouts, stared at the phone again. Arthur's number was already displayed on the phone screen, but she didn't dare to dial.

Maybe she can be perfunctory with Eduard, but in the face of the person she loved, how should she explain her whereabouts for the past three days?

Thinking of what had happened in the past three days, tiredness and complexity filled Lucia's heart. She never thought that the person who saved her would be him!

After a long time, Lucia took a deep breath and finally dialed the phone. How could she let Arthur worry about her all the time?

"Beep...beep..." After waiting for a long time, Lucia heard the voice that she missed extremely.
