She Is A CEO

Chapter 1065 Really Trying to Scam

Lauren really had a sense of crisis now, but he will be at peace when it came. So he turned to Eve and said,

"Eve, come and sit here." Then he led her to the sofa. When they arrived at the sofa, she still stood there with her head down. It was Lauren who pressed her shoulder to make her sit down.

"It's very cold outside, isn't it? Have a cup of black tea with milk. It smells great," Lucia finally stopped being mischievous and pushed a cup of fragrant black tea overflowing with milk in front of Eve with a smile. The hot air rose from the teacup, which smelled fragrant and tempting. Eve swallowed unconsciously, but was too shy to reach out. This gesture looked so cute that even Lucia couldn't bear it. She always felt that she was pitiful.

"Drink it." Lauren picked up the teacup and handed it to Eve. The perfect warmth overflowed her palm, and Eve took a sip, feeling the sweetness filling her mouth and warming every part of her body. "Very tasty, thank you." Although she kept her head down, Eve still thanked Lucia.

Being shy, but politeness was still necessary. Lucia secretly praised Eve for being sensible, but she also knew that it was not good to tease her too much, so she leaned back into Arthur's arms and asked Lauren,

"What matter requires you to come in person?"

As soon as Lucia spoke, Eve couldn't help but raise her eyes and sneak a glance at her and Arthur. She saw them cuddling together, and a strange envy rose in her heart. These two people were such a perfect match...

Lucia's beauty and generosity were unmatched by anyone, and if Eve had not seen Arthur, she could not imagine what kind of man would stand beside her. But today when she saw Arthur, she finally understood what Daphne had said. Lucia and Arthur were a perfect match. As a man, admiring Lucia was no match for Arthur's handsomeness and dominance; as a woman, admiring Arthur was no match for Lucia's gentleness and tranquility.

If only Eve and Lauren could be like them... Eve couldn't help but envy in her heart.

After noticing Eve's gaze, Lucia gave her a gentle smile. Eve quickly buried her head again and dared not sneak another peek.

"Miles seems to have been convinced? I thought it would be you guys who would personally intervene," Lauren chuckled. In fact, he could have said these things over the phone, but he brought Eve along this time to introduce her to Arthur as she was the woman he had decided to spend his life with.

"Miles is eager to find his son, but he's not a good person. According to his current actions, it's obvious that he's looking for any clues about Casper," Arthur said.

"That's good. At first, I was thinking that if Miles remained indifferent, then I would come forward. Now that Casper frequently endangers the safety of Nia and Kevin, and Eve has no peace every day, I don't want to let the matter drag on." Lauren said without hiding.

Eve frowned slightly when she heard her sister's name, but she knew the relationship between Lauren and Lucia and Arthur, and she chose to keep her sister a secret before. So, even after hearing these things now, she had no intention of leaking the secret.

Arthur glanced at Eve when he heard the words. Lauren didn't hide from her, so he didn't need to worry too much.

"Now Nia and Kevin have been trying to regain Stable Growth, but Lucia has no such will. They have a close relationship with Casper. If we can help Miles identify Casper together, our chances of winning will be even greater."

"When I went to see them a few days ago, Nia seemed to be interested in asking you to get rid of Casper. Did you agree?" Lucia glanced at Eve's head that was almost buried in her chest, and asked intentionally.

This time it was not Lauren who answered, but Eve. Although she still lowered her head, her voice did not show any timidity or wavering.

"Lauren won't agree, and I won't let him agree. My sister's approach is wrong."

Lucia and Arthur raised their eyebrows slightly at the same time, because they didn't expect Eve to be able to keep her mind from being bewitched by Nia.

Lauren hugged Eve's shoulder comfortingly, and said softly,

"Eve, I didn't hide from you today's conversation between Arthur and Lucia. This is my sincerity for you. The choice is always up to you. You know I can't bear to reject you."

"Lauren..." Eve felt bad when she heard Lauren's words, and raised her eyes to look at him pitifully, feeling both moved and guilty.

Lauren looked back at Eve tenderly.

Arthur couldn't help but marvel in his heart about Lauren's gentle and pitiful expression. Since he knew Lauren, he had never seen him show such an expression. It seemed that he really fell into Eve's hands. Lucia also smiled and said nothing, but she felt relieved for Lauren. At least Eve didn't take sides when it came to right and wrong, leaving Lauren in a dilemma.

Lauren's palm warmed her hand, and Eve finally calmed down. She no longer bowed her head shyly, but dared to look directly at Lucia, and asked Lucia something unexpected,

"Ms. Webb, is my sister... really doing a lot of bad things?"

If someone else asked this question, Lucia would nod and say yes without hesitation, but when facing Eve, she would not be so straightforward.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

At first she smiled lightly, then parted her lips lightly. Lucia looked back at Eve's probing eyes and said,

"You're not actually stupid. You can discover things on your own, can't you? It just depends on whether or not you're willing to."

Eve looked at Lucia's clear and captivating eyes for a long time before nodding gently in agreement. She did it not only for the sake of fairness but also for Lauren.

This was the first time Eve had taken a positive stance on Nia's situation, and Lauren felt relieved.

Lucia noticed their exchange and lightly nudged Arthur with her elbow. They shared a knowing smile between them.

"By the way, I don't know how you guys met. Can you tell me about your chance encounter?" Arthur intentionally changed the subject as if they were just chatting among friends.

Eve's face reddened slightly as she looked apologetically at Lauren.

Lauren laughed heartily without hesitation and said bluntly, "I accidentally bumped into Eve right after getting off my flight that day. I didn't expect her to faint after just a few words. At first, I thought she was trying to scam me."

"You're the one who was trying to scam me!" Eve retorted sharply with widened eyes. Her expression seemed more relaxed now that she had spoken up.

"That was all just a misunderstanding," Lauren quickly explained while teasingly adding, "Besides, if you were really trying to scam me, then meeting someone like me - kind-hearted and considerate - wouldn't be such a bad thing."
