My Mommy Is A CEO

“Will you ask?” Nia asked deliberately.

“You can say what you want, and I believe that you will ask for any conditions before saying it. Since you are the one who said it, why should I ask for nonsense?” Lucia said with a slight smile.

Nia was frozen for a few seconds, and Lucia shattered the sense of superiority she had just gained from controlling the overall situation.

“Would you like to tell me?” Lucia smiled at Nia’s dazed expression and asked.

Reluctantly but putting her interests first, Nia accepted Lucia’s question, “I want half of the share of the development zone project that you hold.”

“Half?” Lucia raised an eyebrow slightly. “Is the information you provided that valuable?”

If Nia were to hold half of her share, she would be the second-largest shareholder of the entire project.

“Casper is now depriving me of my rights in Stable Growth. You can check it out. I must transfer as much money as possible to the development zone project. It is justifiable, and you and Mr. Davies are in control. Casper dares not say anything.” Nia didn’t try to hide her true intentions with tricks, believing that honesty would make Lucia trust her more.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Lucia looked at Nia’s sincere eyes, sometimes thinking it was funny how one could turn their face into a mask.

“Okay, tell me what clues you can give me.” Lucia nodded.

“Did you know that Miles’ wife, Libby, has been to my house?” As she saw that things had turned around, Nia’s voice raised. “Although I don’t know exactly what you guys talked about at the time, Libby was forcibly left in Athegate by Casper to restrain Miles. From this, you can see whether his confession to you is true or false.”

“Are you sure?” Lucia asked calmly. “It’s normal for a mother to care about her son.”

“Ms. Webb, it’s up to you to believe it or not. Anyway, I’ve already told you everything I know.” Nia wanted to regain control of the game. “As long as you test it a little, you’ll know immediately.”

“If I verify your words in ten days, our deal will be concluded.” Lucia asked Nia noncommittally.

Ten days?

Nia felt that this time was too long, but she couldn’t argue with Lucia’s indifferent eyes, so she could only nod in agreement in the end.

From the meeting, Nia did not go back to the company, but came to the hotel to “visit” Eve in a lean work dress. Eve, who had never seen her sister look so lean, led her into the room and complimented her, “Nia, you look so good dressed like this, like a strong woman.”

“Just like?” Nia raised her eyebrows and laughed.

“No,” Eve corrected with a blush, “You’re!”

Nia was so pleased with herself that she asked Eve to call the waiter to make tea for them, and Eve asked timidly,

“Can I trouble someone like this?”

“Trouble?” Nia snickered, patted Eve’s cheek and said, “Silly sister, here, the money paid must be equal to the service. You live in the presidential suite, 2, 000 dollars a day, not to mention let them make tea, or just make them at will.”

“This is not very good, right …?” Eve still can not afford to bother others in such a hasty manner.

“Eve, you are too small. Mr. Osade will underestimate you.” Nia laughed.

At the mention of Lauren, Eve’s originally bright eyes instantly dimmed. Nia immediately saw it and quickly asked,

“Eve, did you and Mr. Osade have a falling out?”

“No…” Eve whispered, her mind recalling the face of the bright and beautiful woman she saw in the hospital yesterday.

Lauren’s perfunctory and non-explanation made Eve profoundly aware that even though how much he took care of her, the gulf between the two could not be crossed, and she was not in a position or qualified to ask anything more.

Eve was very inferior.

“Something must have happened, right?” Nia stared into Eve’s eyes and asked seriously, and couldn’t let anything go wrong with Eve in front of Lauren.

Eve thought about it and thought it would be okay to tell her sister, so she told her exactly what she saw in that scene yesterday, and foolishly asked,

“Nia, am I being too nosy? With my status, I’m not qualified to ask who that person is, right? It’s good that Mr. Osade isn’t angry with me … but I always feel stuffy inside. I don’t know why.”

As she heard Eve’s words, Nia was overjoyed. It seemed that her silly sister had quietly had a crush on Lauren, but she just did not know it yet. She also worried that Lauren and other women entangled. Could it be that she misjudged and miscalculated his care for her sister?

But before she had tried again and again, Lauren could not have no feelings for Eve.

“Nia…” Seeing Nia staring at herself without saying anything, Eve became even more anxious.

Nia swayed over and hurriedly comforted Eve, “Eve, it’s you who think too much. I think Mr. Osade just doesn’t want you to misunderstand it. You and he have been together for more than half a month. Have you seen him bring other women back?”

“No …” Eve hung her head, not confident at all.

“That’s all,” Nia truly hated Eve’s timid appearance, but on the surface still had to patiently guide her, “Eve, sometimes you have to be more confident. If you care, then just ask him for clarification.”

“How can that be!” Eve hurriedly shook her head, “How can I ask about Mr. Osade’s personal affairs.”

Nia was speechless. Was she too simple or too deep?

“So here’s where you’re not confident, Eve. I don’t believe you really feel nothing for Mr. Osade. He’s a noble man, but he cares for you in every way. There is no simple friendship between men and women. You feel unhappy when you see him and other women close. Is not because you have begun to care about him?”

If someone else said this, it was afraid Eve will again shake her head again, but the person in front of her was her sister who will not deliberately deceive her and will not take pleasure in it. And the most important thing was … what she felt in her heart was said by her sister.

But … Eve once again fell silent and buried her head, whispering,

“Even if I really care about him … but with a body like mine …”

She would only become a burden to others.

Eve was clear about that, but did not have the courage to speak it out. If she did so, even her little hope for herself would be broken.
