My Mommy Is A CEO

After hearing this, Lucia picked up one contract on the table and looked through it. Sure enough, it was a transfer contract, but whether or not she agreed was entirely up to her.

“How do you know I’ll agree?” She tossed the contract back onto the table with a faint smile on her face, but there was no humor in her eyes.

Nia frowned at her words and unconsciously glanced at Kevin. He immediately spoke up,

“Ms. Webb, Stable Growth may be an insignificant company to you, but for us it’s everything we’ve put our hearts into. We entrusted it to you willingly, but dealing with StandHill requires special measures. It wouldn’t be good if we ended up having a falling out between us as well. So we’re asking that you return it to us and let us deal with StandHill ourselves without troubling you or Mr. Davies.”

“Nia,” Lucia continued to smile faintly as she shot a gleam of light from her eyes, “You begged me before to save Stable Growth for you and now you want it back? Not only have none of your promises been fulfilled yet again, but this isn’t the first time I’ve been deceived by you guys either! Can I even trust what you say?”

“What you mean… is that you don’t want to return Stable Growth to us?” Nia became anxious.

“Didn’t Mr. Berry just say earlier?” Lucia said, “Stable Growth really is insignificant for me personally; however, since your promises haven’t been kept and I’m not helping for nothing in return, if y’all want Stable Growth, then y’all gotta show some sincerity.”

Nia exchanged glances with Kevin awkwardly as they sat there staring at the contracts on the table.

“I won’t sign anything,” Lucia said bluntly, “And if Stable Growth does anything out of line, then I will still take care of them myself.”

“As for how y’all handle Casper – that’s entirely up ta’ ya’ll.” Seeing Nia and Kevin looking gloomy-faced made Lucia straightforward about what she meant.

“Well then since that’s settled, we won’t disturb you anymore.” Nia knew about Lucia’s temperament so saying more would only trample all over their own dignity; therefore they simply bid farewell and left.

It wasn’t until after Nia and Kevin had left that Kane came into Lucia’s office.

“Kane,” She said, “You need to keep an eye on Stable Growths movements recently; relying solely on economic sanctions won’t bring down Casper anytime soon. They need to be forced into coming outta hiding.”

“Nia and Kevin are like parasites, always relying on the power of others. They want to use Stable Growth to their advantage, but they’re afraid you’ll swallow it up. They only care about their own interests and think everyone else is a fool for letting them use them,” Kane said, looking down on people like Nia.

Even though Jacob took over Webbex Group, he still derived JTP Group by his own power. Nia was worse than him.

“Once I reject them, they won’t give up easily. Keep an eye on Kevin’s every move and let me know if anything happens,” Lucia said with a slight frown.

“Okay,” Kane replied.

Meanwhile, Nia left Webbex Group in anger and complained all the way while criticizing Lucia without realizing her own greed and selfishness.

“Don’t worry,” Kevin comforted Nia. “Lauren’s funds have already arrived so we don’t have any worries. Since Lucia doesn’t agree, let’s make some moves to force her to agree!”

“I’ll leave this matter to you then. I just need to deal with Eve,” Nia said with a smug look in her eyes.

Over the next two weeks, Kevin aggressively snatched several big deals from StandHill, which made Casper furious as he was used to being the one who schemed against others but never expected someone would do it against him too.

“Leon! Have you found out who the mole in our company is?” Casper asked angrily as his temper had been getting worse lately.

Leon was always careful around him these days because of his volatile mood swings but when he heard Casper ask again about this issue, he felt like burying himself alive. “Not yet…”

Before Leon could finish speaking though, a folder hit him hard on his head causing him pain. He cried out loud but he didn’t dare complain even once.

“You can’t even find a few moles? What are you all good for?!”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Casper scolded harshly, “Stable Growth has taken away four deals from us this month alone! If we keep going like this, what face will we have left in Athegate?”

“Boss… Stable Growth has recruited many connections through Webbex Group now, so even if there were no moles…we might not be able to compete with them right now…” Leon hesitantly shared his thoughts which immediately angered Casper further.

“What? Are you saying I’m incompetent?!”

“That’s not what I meant…” Leon’s face was pale.

“The investments I’ve chosen are all in booming industries. Stable Growth is like a dog chasing after scraps, you know?!” Casper was furious about it. He thought that after Stable Growth left him, they would run their business poorly. But instead, they followed him and stole his business, which made them even more successful.

“I know, I know…” Leon flattered him repeatedly. “Kevin knows that you have a long-term vision and that’s why he keeps competing with us for business. Otherwise, how could they find these resources?”

Casper calmed down a bit after hearing Leon’s words. He slowly sat back in his chair with shining eyes and kept thinking.

Leon didn’t know what Casper was thinking about and suggested, “Boss, I still think we shouldn’t be so gentle with them. If we want to make sure they don’t mess with us again, we need to show them who’s boss.”

“Do you think I don’t want to?” Casper interrupted impatiently as his thoughts were interrupted by Leon’s suggestion.

“Nia has already relied on Lauren; if it were so easy to take action against them, do you think I would wait until now?”

As soon as Lauren was mentioned by Casper, Leon felt uneasy and dared not speak any further.

“Did you find out what happened with the project Stable Growth had last month which hasn’t been paid yet?” Casper glanced at Leon before finally clearing up his thoughts.

“I found out that the middleman ran off with the money but it had nothing to do with Stable Growth so I didn’t pay too much attention,” replied Leon lowering his head.

“Nothing to do with them?” sneered Casper as an idea formed in his mind. “Then let me make sure it does!”

“What do you mean, Boss?” asked an unaware Leon.

Casper smiled and waved for Leon to come closer before telling him carefully what he planned on doing next, making Leon excitedly say,

“You’re brilliant, Boss! Let me go take care of this right away!”

“Remember,” said Casper confidently while looking into Leon’s eyes. “Make this matter public knowledge; let’s see how long their relationship can last!”

Three days later at dawn when Lucia usually woke up from Arthur kissing her awake, she was woken up by her phone ringing instead. At 7am, she was wondering why Kane would call her so early?
