She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 114

Noticing the weakness shown in the corner of her eyes, Kane softened and could not say any more words to blame her. But he was also worried about Juliana.

The next day after talking with Poppy, 22 days after Juliana's accident, Kane dialed her.

No one answered the phone. Kane wanted to give up, but his heart told him to persist. So, he called her over and over again. Finally, he got through to her.

However, only a slight breathing sound could be heard over the phone. Kane hesitated for a moment, summoned up his courage, and asked softly.

"Julia... is that you?"

He was talking nonsense, but he could only start the conversation in this way.

After a long while, Kane heard "Hmm".

"How are you... now?" Kane knew it was shameless of him to ask such a question, but he wanted to know Juliana's current situation.

Silence fell again. Kane waited patiently, but only a busy tone came.

Juliana hung up the phone. He looked at his mobile phone and felt lost, but a message came later.

"At three in the afternoon, in front of the museum."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Kane waited in front of the city museum. This was the place he had taken Juliana to visit. She chose to meet him here. Kane had mixed feelings.

At three o'clock, Kane, who had been standing at the door for an hour, saw Juliana. At first glance, Kane could hardly recognize the person in front of him.

When he saw Juliana for the first time, they were in Kenya. At that time, she wore a uniform with a sweet and bright smile on her face. But now the woman coming over to him seemed to exude cold air. No vitality could be seen in her round eyes and the smile on her lips was bitter. Kane lowered his head in shame.

Juliana walked slowly towards Kane. Each step was heavy and seemed to exhaust her.

In fact, she was not only afraid to face those who didn't know it, but also Kane, who was on the spot at that time. This man she had a crush on witnessed her being raped. Whether he fainted or not, he was there.

This was the deepest thorn in Juliana's side.

She knew that she could not get over it, but she really wanted to know what happened to Kane later.

She didn't have the courage to ask on the phone, so she asked him out to see him.

When she came to Kane, Juliana managed a smile, but she didn't know how bitter her smile looked. She asked Kane softly, "How are you?"

She saw the scar on Kane's forehead. After more than half a month, the scabs formed on the wound had fallen off, but there were still traces.
