She Is A CEO

Chapter 1038 Go Meet Him

When Libby returned home in the afternoon, Casper asked her about what happened when she got lost. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her expression, he finally relaxed. However, because of this incident, he had a reason to prevent her from going out again.

After Casper left, Libby became cold and didn't show any smile on her face.

At the end of work hours, Arthur came to pick up Lucia as usual. It was then that Lucia told him about Libby's visit earlier that day.

"So you're saying even she is suspicious of Casper?"

"Her suspicion is only based on his strange behavior. She can't imagine that the person in front of her isn't actually her son. So she asks him about things he did before and from the look on her face, it seems like Casper has been lying to her all along. She finds it hard to believe who he really is," Lucia explained.

"I've been thinking about how we can expose Casper's true identity for a while, now but if he doesn't slip up himself, then we have no way of proving anything against him. The police won't investigate just based on our word alone, so the only people who can expose his identity are Mr. and Mrs Wood," Arthur said with a smirk as an idea formed in his mind.

Lucia agreed with Arthur's plan, "That's right! Now that Libby already has doubts about him, if we could convince Miles, then everything would be easier."

"But we don't know how much Miles knows yet," Arthur added.

"Why not just ask him directly?" suggested Lucia with a playful smile as she looked at Arthur.

The next day, instead of going into work at their company headquarters like usual, both Lucia and Arthur boarded a plane headed for Lepus together after making sure Kane would manage their company well while they were gone. Onboard the plane, they received an unexpected surprise too!

As soon as they sat down, Lauren called out their names from behind them, causing both Lucia and Arthur to turn around quickly looking surprised!

"Lauren?!"

"I must have made quite an entrance if I can see those expressions on your faces!" Lauren teased them playfully before taking a seat opposite them both.

"What's wrong with my expression?" asked Arthur coldly looking at Lauren suspiciously. "We're strangers, aren't we?"

"Arthur! You weren't always this stingy." Lauren laughed lightly, reminding them both of old times past.

After hearing this, Arthur finally showed a hint of a smile on his face and teased Lauren back, "So, are you finally willing to come see me?"

Lauren had been feeling guilty about this matter and couldn't speak when Arthur asked him.

Lucia looked at Arthur, then at Lauren. She found it amusing and decided to help Lauren out by asking intentionally, "Last time we met your subordinate on this flight too. We also found out that you had already arrived in Athegate. So what? Are you interested in Miles too?"

Lauren smiled and said, "Of course. I can almost confirm that Casper is Jacob. As soon as I arrived here, I started investigating the Wood family's background. Dely came over last time for business but unexpectedly ran into you guys and missed something important."

"Tell us about your late investigation results," Arthur said while crossing his arms.

Lauren became serious and began to talk about his investigation process, "After Lola came to find me, I searched for newly immigrated people nationwide. Soon enough, I discovered a suspicious group of people who were traveling together with generous spending habits. However, at the time I did not think they were Jacob's group because Lola gave me his photo but he was not among them."

"It wasn't until later when my subordinates reported that a group of people hired a local plastic surgeon with high pay that made me realize what Jacob was up to," he continued.

"I have been keeping an eye on their movements ever since then until they left the country. After handling my family affairs back home, I followed them here but unexpectedly..." "You didn't expect to meet your little flower," Lucia finished off for Lauren.

Feeling guilty again after seeing Arthur's expression change slightly, he said, "I bumped into Eve there. I planned to visit you in a few days' time but didn't expect her to be Nia's sister. Arthur, I know you blame me for hiding things just because of one woman, but there is always an unexplainable sympathy towards her within myself. It's my first-time feeling like this towards another woman, so please forgive me." "So you chose to ignore our friendship?" Of course Arthur never blamed Lauren; he just wanted to tease him.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Arthur... I..." This time around, Lauren couldn't say anything again so Lucia spoke up once more, "Mr Davies! Stop teasing him now! It took him so long just meet up with us!"

Teasing? Only now did Lauren look up only noticing how much laughter was evident on Arthur's face realizing he hadn't meant anything by it - leaving him speechless yet amused all at once. This couple really...

Since Lauren knew that Arthur didn't blame him, he felt no guilt. He was always a reckless person anyway.

With her arms crossed, Lauren leaned back against the seat and locked eyes with Arthur. At first glance, their auras were very similar - one naturally cold and the other always arrogant - both were prominent figures.

Lucia's gaze shifted between the two of them as she couldn't help but laugh. No wonder they had become friends; their auras were so similar and powerful that they could appreciate each other.

"I mean, how long are you guys going to stare at each other like this?" Lucia teased both men at once.

Upon hearing this, Arthur and Lauren's expressions suddenly became awkward as they looked away from each other uncomfortably.

Lucia couldn't help but chuckle even more as she asked Lauren, "So are you planning on meeting Miles with us this time?"

"I can tell Miles the truth," Lauren replied confidently. "The real Casper should have already been killed by now; he doesn't need to be threatened by Jacob anymore."

Lauren's words made sense, but Lucia still had some doubts, "Miles is stubbornly self-reliant. Even though we warned him before, he still refused to believe it until now. He has always believed that his son is still alive and I understand his pain. Even if there is only one percent chance of saving his son, he will try everything possible to do so. So even if you tell him the truth yourself, he may not easily believe it; instead he may suspect our motives."

"The bond between father and son is stronger than anything else," Arthur said after pondering for a moment. "I understand Miles' struggle and conflict about this matter too well myself. This time when we go see him again, just mention Libby looking for you before - let him think it over himself - we can't force him."

"Then what use am I?" Lauren couldn't help saying.

"You're definitely useful," Arthur smiled reassuringly at him while speaking thoughtfully after pausing for a moment, "As long as you choose your words carefully enough to hint at him."
