She Is A CEO

She Is A Ceo Novel George Chapman Chapter 559

“Why didn’t you speak up for me!” Spencer directed his anger at Lucia.

“For you?” Lucia raised an eyebrow. “That’s not my part.”

Spencer choked with anger. Lucia looked extremely indifferent right now.

“The month is up. Spencer, my patience is running out. After all this time with you, it’s time for you to tell me where Jacob is.”

Spencer didn’t dispute that, thanks to Lucia, his image and that of the company had improved over the past month, and they had even been described by magazines as the love couple of the industry. Cloudwork’s stock price also showed a warming trend. With further delay, he was afraid that Lucia will really lose patience.

“Sure, I’ll tell you when we get to Chicago.”

“We’re going to Chicago?” Lucia frowned.

“The last scene, of course, had to be done, right?” Spencer laughed.

Staring at the smile on Spencer’s lips, Lucia furrowed deeply, but she finally agreed. Anyway, her “bad luck” was about to end.

The next day, Spencer announced that he and Lucia were going to Chicago to visit Esmae, and had a reporter from Prospect Focus Magazine follow them all the way to the airport to post pictures of their intimate relationship.

After getting on the plane and out of sight of the reporter, Lucia immediately drew a line between herself and Spencer. Although they were in the same position, Lucia wouldn’t even let him touch her arm.

“Tell me, what do you want me to ask Esmae?” Lucia asked Spencer.

“First-quarter results from headquarters,” Spencer said bluntly.

“You have quite an appetite,” Lucia sneered.

“It’s not that big. It’s just a few words to Ms. Wilson, but it’s very important to us. Lucia, whether or not you can get Jacob’s location depends on how you perform tomorrow.” Spencer sounded relaxed.

Lucia gave Spencer a cold look and then turned to look out the window. It looked like she was really going to talk to Esmae to get hold of Jacob.

The next morning, their plane arrived in Chicago. At the airport, she and Spencer returned to Brown Manor in a motorcade sent by the Brown family. Esmae, who had not seen Lucia in a long time, was already waiting for her at the Manor.

As soon as she got off the car, Lucia saw Esmae waiting for her on the doorstep.

“Esmae!” Lucia called her happily. She broke away from Spencer’s hand and began to run up the stairs. Her light figure was not affected by her pregnant belly, but this action frightened Esmae.

Esmae hurried down to meet her, not forgetting to say, “Be careful. Why are you running?”

“I miss you,” said Lucia, smiling sweetly at Esmae.

Esmae had a loving smile and hugged her, who had caused her so much heartache. But when she hugged Lucia, her eyes quickly darkened when she saw Spencer.

Spencer offered to come with Lucia. Esmae knew what he was up to. She was following the national news. She didn’t know what Lucia was up to, but she wasn’t going to stop it.

“Ms. Wilson, long time no see. How’s your health?” Spencer greeted Esmae with a smile, pretending not to notice the look of displeasure in her eyes.

“Fine,” said Esmae casually as she led Lucia into the house. Spencer smiled and followed.

Coming into the drawing-room, Esmae busily let Lucia sit down. And Lucia was amused by her cautious manner.

“Esmae, I’m not that weak. I can do a lot of things when I had Teddy.”

“It’s different this time. You’ve been hurt before,” said Esmae softly, but she glanced at Spencer, who had done something “good” she hadn’t forgotten!

“Ms. Wilson, I’ve sincerely reformed. Look, isn’t Lucia being taken good care of by me now? Has she put on a lot of weight?” Spencer had Lucia’s promise and spoke with confidence.

Esmae looked at Lucia, who smiled and nodded slightly. “Spencer did take care of me. Nia and he has lost touch.”

Esmae raised her eyebrows. What the hell was going on?

Seeing Esmae’s surprise, Lucia did not reveal anything. She smiled lightly, which was meaningful.

Esmae looked at Lucia for a long time, then turned to Spencer and said, “Really?”

“Of course,” Spencer said. “I would do anything for Lucia if she would just give me a chance.”

Spencer’s sincerity was a bit grandiose, but Esmae didn’t say it out loud. She just nodded slightly and began inquiring about Lucia’s condition, leaving Spencer out of the way.

Spencer wasn’t in a hurry. He sat on the couch and patiently listened to Esmae and Lucia talk, smiling and agreeing with her every now and then politely.

In the evening, after dinner, Esmae asked Lucia to accompany her for a walk in the garden. They walked slowly down the path, arm in arm.

After walking for a while, the neon lights in the garden lit up and Esmae asked Lucia,

“Lucia, did Spencer make a deal with you?”

“Yes,” said Lucia, nodding. “I want Jacob.”

“What’s the catch?”

“Erik’s company’s earnings for the first quarter of next year,” Lucia said, looking at Esmae.

“I know.” Esmae nodded immediately. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Lucia thought she was going to ask a lot of questions. Knowing that Esmae was on her side, Lucia gratefully replied,

“Thank you, Esmae.”

“Don’t thank me,” Esmae said, lowering her eyes. “I’m sorry that you’ve suffered so much. If I can help you find Jacob, it would be a piece of cake to give him a few deals.”

“Esmae, I know you don’t want to work with Erik…” Lucia felt bad.

“That’s true,” Esmae said with a smile. “Erik, that scaredy-cat, has a bad reputation in the business. My friend told me to be careful that I didn’t fall for his tricks.”

“It’s funny that Erik still thinks you can help him with the Davies group…” Lucia had no sooner said this than she realized she probably shouldn’t have mentioned Edwin and Sophie. When she looked at Esmae and saw that her expression had changed, Lucia asked helplessly,

“Esmae, are you still…”
