She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1204

Chapter 1204 Surprise or Scare?

Lucia didn't even know how she got into the car. By the time she realized what was happening, Jan had already driven far away. Although Lucia felt uneasy, she couldn't deny that Jan's words made sense. So, in her heart, she silently decided to go to work first and continue contacting Arthur. If Arthur still didn't come back, she would search for him all over the world!

On the way, Lucia was lost in thought and didn't notice that Jan wasn't heading towards the company but instead driving further out of town until Lucia looked up and saw an unfamiliar view outside.

"Jan?! Where are we going?!" Lucia asked anxiously.

Jan smiled faintly and said leisurely, "You'll find out when we get there."

Lucia's eyes widened in shock. What was Jan up to?! She asked again, "Jan, what are you doing? Where are we going?"

But this time Jan remained silent and focused on driving.

For a moment, if it weren't for knowing that Jan was a trusted servant of the Davies family, Lucia would have jumped out of the car! But soon enough she realized where they were headed. This road seemed so familiar... Memories flooded back as Lucia sat stunned in the backseat.

This wasn't just any road. It led straight to her own home!

Finally stopping at Webbex Manor's front gate gave Lucia an answer.

After parking the car safely by the side of the road, with a smile on his face, he turned around to say, "Ms. Webb I'll leave you here now. Please go ahead inside."

What?!

Lucia was quite confused.

Still smiling kindly like an elder relative, he urged her from his seat, "Go ahead!"

Lucia got out of the car with suspicion, and the large tree in front of the house was still lush as before. Every leaf was vibrant under the sunlight. However, she stood in front of the iron gate, staring like a puppet.

Jan felt incredibly fortunate, as he was able to witness so many dumbfounded expressions from the usually sharp and clever Lucia in such a short amount of time. Seeing her hesitating, he urged her from the front seat,

"Ms. Webb! Go inside!"

Inside?

His words seemed to trigger something within Lucia's mind like turning gears... She reached out tentatively towards those iron gates guarding generations-old manor house before pushing them open slowly...

She hadn't walked more than few steps when Lucia encountered first wave of indescribable "surprises".

Looking around, everything was just as it had always been. But the gravel path leading to the main house was covered in lily petals of all colors - bright yellow, pure white, vibrant orange, bold red, and even lively pink. Lucia could smell their delicate fragrance on the wind. It was refreshing and invigorating.

Without thinking twice, she took a deep breath and looked towards the end of the petal-covered path. A smile spread across her lips as she eagerly ran forward with each step kicking up countless petals. She felt like a fairy dancing among them in the sunlight.

At the end of the path stood her long-awaited man... and others!

"Lucia!" Esmae called out to her gently with Chris, Reynolds and Shawn behind her.

"Lucia! You're finally here!" Sophie exclaimed happily while leaning on Edwin with Douglas by her side and Bailey standing nearby.
