She Is A CEO

Chapter 1101 Don't Waste Time Talking!

Casper's smirk grew wider as he looked down at Nia, who was cowering. He glanced over at Kevin and Eve, who were rushing towards the entrance, followed by Lauren with a cold expression on his face. Casper spoke without pause, "You know you're only able to come out now because of me? I won't pursue this matter any further since we had an agreement before. Be careful in the future and don't mess with me again!"

Nia's eyes flashed with surprise as she wondered why Casper would let her go so easily. She was about to speak when someone hugged her from behind and Eve's anxious yet relieved voice sounded out, "Nia! Are you okay?"

Eve hugged her sister tightly before turning to glare fiercely at Casper and pushing Nia behind herself protectively. "So you're Nia's sister? You two... don't look alike," said Casper mockingly.

Lauren heard his words and narrowed his eyes slightly, stepping forward to block Casper's gaze from prying any further. He was more than ten centimeters taller than Casper already had an imposing presence that made him seem even more intimidating.

Lauren was not someone to be messed with...

Nia felt unsettled as she thought about why Casper would let her go so easily. Based on what she knew about him, he would do everything in his power to send her straight into jail if he could help it! Why... why...

She was lost in thought when Kevin spoke up, "Mr. Wood, since we've agreed on reconciliation already, there is no need for us to argue anymore."

Nia looked over at Kevin incredulously - did he just say that Casper agreed on reconciliation?

But instead of feeling relieved or happy that she had been released from captivity, all Nia could think about now were reasons for why this happened.

"I never intended it," said Caspar dismissively while ignoring Lauren who stood beside them watching silently; then turned his mocking gaze onto Kevin himself saying slyly, "But I suppose it wouldn't hurt if she thanked me personally for letting her off easy."

"Mr. Wood," replied Kevin calmly while looking directly into his eyes. "Let us not forget that although Nia may have injured Leon first, they were the ones who provoked things initially."

Casper laughed exaggeratedly after hearing what Kevin said; then gave Lauren a sidelong glance before speaking bluntly once again,

"It seems like having your master around really gives dogs some courage huh? Alright then, my signature is already here so let's just call it quits, shall we?"

After finishing his words, Casper waved his hand and left the police station surrounded by his henchmen. As they left, the hall instantly quieted down. The officer escorting Nia reminded her, "Please sign the settlement agreement first, then you can leave."

Nia nodded absentmindedly and gave Kevin a deep look before following the officer out. Eve anxiously waited by Lauren's side as they watched Nia leave. After about twenty minutes, Nia was escorted back out by an officer looking even more haggard than before. She was wearing the same dress she had been arrested in that night which looked extremely out of place and ironic.

Kevin frowned and took off his jacket to put it on Nia but she showed no gratitude for this gesture instead staring at him intently asking, "Why did Casper agree to settle?"

Kevin's eyes flickered for a moment before he said, "Let's go back first; it's not safe to talk here."

Nia looked around but all of the officers were still at their positions so why couldn't they talk here? "Why are you beating around the bush? What is going on?"

Kevin didn't answer but Eve realized something was wrong and quickly came over to her sister begging, "Nia, you're not feeling well right now; let's go home first and we can talk after you change clothes." Nia glanced at Eve then slowly nodded as she leaned on her sister leaving with her while a car waited outside having finally been released from prison after half a month.

Worried about her sister, Eve pleaded with Lauren to accompany them back home together with Kevin waiting in their living room for Nia who would soon come up from washing up in their bedroom. Lauren sat on the sofa still looking indifferent except for playing with Eve's hair, while Kevin appeared restless thinking things over until he finally spoke up, "Mr. Osade, Eve, could you both head back now? I'll explain everything that happened to Nia later when I have time alone with her."

No one needed him to finish what he meant because everyone knew what Stable Growth falling into Casper's hands meant if Nia found out... Eve couldn't even imagine it happening.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

"But if only you explain things alone..."

"It's okay, you guys should go back first. Wait until she calms down a bit before coming to see her," Kevin continued to persuade them. He had his own concerns; if Nia went crazy later, she might blame Eve and Lauren was here too. Her doing so would undoubtedly anger him.

Now Lauren was their biggest support, and Lucia had already stated that she would no longer pay attention to their grievances with Casper in the future.

"Go back first," Lauren also said to Eve.

"Then take care of Nia," although reluctant, Eve nodded, "I'll come see her tomorrow."

"Okay." Kevin immediately got up to send them off, hoping they would leave as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, there was enough time. Five minutes after Lauren's car left, Nia slowly walked down from upstairs in a bathrobe. After taking a shower, she looked better. Seeing only Kevin in the living room, she asked first,

"Where is Eve? Where is Lauren?"

"I let them go back first," Kevin said calmly.

Nia didn't seem to care; she slowly walked into the living room and sat on the sofa with her arms crossed coldly saying,

"So tell me why Casper agreed to reconcile."

Kevin took a deep breath and turned around to sit beside Nia despite wanting to avoid her accusing gaze. However he had no choice but face it head-on while answering,

"Nia, this matter is very complicated in between us. Promise me that you will calm down for now and I will talk about it slowly with you later."

Nia's gaze became increasingly heavy while speaking softly,

"Don't beat around the bush! What exactly happened?"

Knowing that he couldn't hide it forever, Kevin could only remain calm while telling Nia about what he did by going out of his way seeking help from Lucia along with their agreement, and also disclosing Lucia's agreement with Casper one by one.
