My Mommy Is A CEO

After listening to Kyle’s words, Gracie suddenly stopped sobbing. She furrowed her brow and seemed to remember something.

Sensing Gracie’s unusual behavior, Kyle asked sensitively, “Did you think of something?”

“If Casper is Jacob… then this all makes sense,” Gracie muttered to herself before looking up at Arthur and saying, “Mr. Davies, I didn’t understand the origin of this before but now I do. Starting a month ago, Ms. Webb received a bouquet of anonymous cherry blossom every day.”

As soon as he heard the words “cherry blossom”, Arthur’s eyes lit up with excitement.

“I thought it was just some bored person playing pranks but now I realize it must have been… Jacob sending them because every time Ms. Webb saw those flowers, she would be disgusted and demand that they be destroyed immediately without telling anyone about them – especially not you. A week ago, cards started being included with the flowers but she still made me destroy the flowers while keeping the cards.”

“Where are those cards?” Arthur demanded sternly.

“They should be in Ms. Webb’s office,” Gracie replied quickly.

“Let’s go back!” Arthur turned his head and gazed deeply in the direction the helicopter had departed. With a single command, he led his men away from the rooftop, leaving only Kyle and the other security personnel to assist Miles in stabilizing StandHill.

Arthur led Jack along with Kane and Gracie back to Webbex Group headquarters where they searched Lucia’s office for those cards. After searching through everything on her desk first then checking all drawers one by one himself, he finally found them lying inside one of them.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“I found them,” Arthur announced in a deep voice as he picked up those cards himself.

The others crowded around him curiously while Kane recognized it instantly, “This is Padma Monpa’s ‘See Me Or Not’! Jacob used this poem when he pursued Lucia!”

Arthur coldly scanned over these seemingly affectionate words, and could almost imagine what kind of mood Lucia would have been in when she saw these things. Especially since one card had been crumpled into a ball, it showed how angry she must have been at that time!

“No wonder…” Kane’s eyes flashed with anger. “No wonder Lucia remembered the past. It turns out that Jacob had planned it all along! He wanted to lure Lucia into finding out the reason, so he could successfully kidnap her!”

Arthur had already calmed down and analyzed each card one by one. “According to Gracie, these flowers have been sent continuously for a month, but why did he start including cards only seven days ago?”

Kane immediately understood. “Jacob knew about our plan a week ago!”

“Yes,” Arthur said with a cold glare. “And the fact that the other party knew we were going to take action and went to warn Jacob indicates that they had prior knowledge. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have used Miles’ safety to pressure Libby into revealing the detailed plan. So, who do you think they are?”

This time, Kane didn’t need to guess anymore. Jack slammed his hand on the table and cursed fiercely, “Nia and Kevin!”

It could only be them!

“They’re just protecting themselves because once Jacob is gone, Lucia will come after them next,” Arthur’s eyes flickered with a hint of killing intent as he squeezed all the cards in his palm.

“They can’t run away,” Kane said confidently. “Tracking down Jacob’s whereabouts is now our top priority.”

“That’s not difficult.” Arthur suddenly said something that excited everyone.

“Mr. Davies, you were prepared all along?!”

“Yeah,” Arthur wasn’t particularly excited but just calmly said, “The watch Lucia brought has a personal locator tracker installed on it.” He then asked Kyle to bring over his laptop.

Kyle suddenly realized what was happening and praised, “I was wondering why you insisted I bring the laptop…”

Arthur gave Kyle a glance before opening up the tracking system which showed that their target was moving very fast towards the south of the city.

“There are several small airports in that direction where he might transfer or change transportation,” Arthur continued analyzing calmly,

“What we need to do now is get closer without letting them notice us.”

“Mr. Davies…” Nick expressed concern about Arthur’s decision. “Are you going crazy with Lucia? Right now, Jacob hasn’t reacted yet, and searching the hostage is basic control. Can you ensure that he won’t throw away Lucia’s watch or put it on another object to mislead us from the correct route?”

Arthur furrowed his brow and remained silent. Kane was worried and thought for a moment before making a suggestion to Arthur. “Arthur, how about this? Let’s give Lucia twelve hours. This is already the limit. If she doesn’t get an answer from Jacob within twelve hours, then unfortunately we have to move on because safety is more important than anything else.”

“Kane!” Nick scolded him.

“Just follow what Kane said,” Arthur decided after thinking it over. “We’ll start tracking now and keep an eye on Lucia’s movements. After twelve hours, no matter what happens, we’ll take action.”

“But what if…” Jack was still uneasy about Nick’s concerns.

“Jacob is feeling proud right now. He thinks he has outsmarted us all,” Arthur explained confidently as he prioritized Lucia’s feelings in his decision-making process since she had already been captured anyway.

He added, “I believe in Lucia. If Jacob really tries something against her, she has the ability to fight back.”

Everyone agreed with him since they all knew of her strength firsthand and immediately set off to track her whereabouts.

On the other side of things as predicted by Arthur earlier, Jacob was indeed enjoying his victory at this moment without even considering whether or not there might be a tracker on Lucia while flying towards a small airport in the south of the city.

“How does it feel? Did you expect me to have one last trick up my sleeve?” He taunted her smugly while looking at her directly in the eyes during their flight together.

“Arthur may be smart but ultimately watched helplessly as I took you away,” he continued arrogantly before adding, “Lucia, forgive me for being blunt, but your team lost miserably this time around.”
