She Is a Ceo by Jorgie Chapman

Chapter 51



Chapter 51 You Have Three Chances
“You have three chances The preconditions are, I won’t meet you in the middle of the night, nor will I do anything that may bring
harm to other people. It’s true my mother’s belongings are important, but I’m not going to break my rules for them.”
Without hesitation, Jacob agreed Lucia gave him the answer after consideration. He did not need to bargain with her over that. If
he pushed her too much, he might end up with something less satisfying
Now that he got the answer he wanted, he said, “Okay, three chances it’s a deal. I won’t make it hard for you. And I need you to
remove my number from your blacklist. I’m sure you know my number”
Lucia glanced at him. It didn’t occur to her that he would mention his phone number. She did blacklist his number on purpose
“What? You don’t want to do that?” He asked intentionally, seeing Lucia staring at him.
They made eye contact for a few seconds.
Without saying anything. Lucia took out her phone and removed his number from the blacklist while he was watching
It greatly pleased Jacob. Finally, he felt a sense of superiority before her “Oh, right. You cannot tell anyone about our deal. I
would destroy the necklace the minute I know that you disclose our secret to anyone.”
What a cunning bastard. He knew Arthur and Eduard would spare no effort to help her. If they knew Jacob had threatened her
with her mother’s relics, they might find other ways to set obstacles for him
Poppy, who was green-eyed, could not know this either. Once she got mad with him, she was even more difficult to deal with
than Arthur and Eduard
“I know. And you must keep this deal in mind. If you break it or refuse to follow it, I will tell Poppy alone.” Lucia answered with
impatience and then threatened Jacob
If he broke his word, letting Poppy know would be the biggest punishment she gave to him.
He looked sullen and stared at Lucia for quite a while before nodding in silence
The air around them froze again. The coffee on the table was already cold. Lucia had no intention to stay there or waste her
breath.

Without hesitation, she took her phone and bag aside, stood up, and was about to leave.
Jacob, who was sitting opposite her, was surprised at her sudden movement. He blurted out. “Are you leaving?”
The moment he blurted out those words, he regretted it. It sounded like he didn’t want her to leave Lucia glanced at him,
frowning. She had accepted his unreasonable requests. What more did he want?
To make himself appear less awkward, Jacob added, “I am your old friend. Shouldn’t you chat more with me?”
“I have nothing to say,” Lucia said flatly and turned around resolutely. She paid the bill and left the cafe, giving him no chance to
speak more. Jacob’s eyes followed Lucia the whole time as she walked away from him and disappeared into the crowd.
Eventually, he frowned and threw himself back into the seat, “Damn it.”
As soon as Lucia left, Jacob’s mind functioned normally. He realized that he could have asked her for more with that necklace,
but somehow he only asked her to show up whenever he called her. And he only had three chances to do it.
But, after a second thought, Jacob felt better. He could make good use of these three chances to achieve a lot of things.
“Lucia... you would regret it.” Jacob thought to himself.
While walking through the crowd, Lucia felt frustrated that her mother’s necklace was still in Jacob’s hands.
Honestly, she didn’t believe that Jacob would keep his word
He broke every promise he made to her. In the end, each of them turned into an ironic joke.
She was thinking about other ways to get it back, but she could not figure out a way for the time being. She could not steal it
from him, could she?
The confrontation she had with Jacob greatly annoyed her.
She was leaving Athegate the day after tomorrow. Esmae’s eccentricity really worried her. Her insecurity had nowhere to hide
though she was now treading on the busiest street in this city
She walked until she found out that she had passed several blocks and that the person she wanted to meet the most was
Arthur.

She hesitated no more and took a cab to Branch of Davonnis. He should be working in his office at this time.
It was the second time that Lucia stepped into Branch of Davonnis. Though she was not accompanied by Arthur, she caught all
staff’s attention the moment she appeared in the hall.
“Isn’t that Lucia, our CEO’s girlfriend? Someone exclaimed immediately.
It’s her it’s Lucia Oh my god it’s the first time I have seen her in such a short distance. She’s so pretty” Someone praised while
staring fixedly at
“Why are you making a fuss over it? Don’t forget what she has done five years ago.” Someone mocked out of jealousy.
“What are you talking about? Mr. Davies spoke up for her in the press conference. What he said made sense, and we didn’t
know the whole picture. It’s unfair to draw an early conclusion Someone who admired Arthur reputed.
“Right. Don’t be jealous. Our CEO can differ right from wrong. If he believes her, he must have his reasons. Plus, the girlfriend of
our CEO is absolutely a woman of good character, someone who believed Arthur had a good eye for women reputed as well.
People held different attitudes toward Lucia, but most of them tend to support her considering Arthur’s words and actions.
Whatever their view of her was, it had no influence on Lucia who walked casually.
When she was passing the hall and the crowd, she heard their remarks, but she just took no heed of them. It was silly to care
about how others viewed her
When she walked into the elevator, all the noises were isolated
When it ascended to the top and when Lucia walked out of the elevator, she was amazed by the blue wall that came into her
view and felt better. “Lucia” When she was appreciating the light blue wall, Arthur’s voice came to her.
She turned around in surprise. Why was he waiting for her?
He approached her and held her hand. Feeling the warmth of it, he stopped frowning. “The reception informed me when you
entered the hall” Lucia could not help cracking a smile. It seemed everyone in Branch of Davonnis knew her now
