She Is A CEO

Chapter 1102 Think Carefully

Nia quietly listened to Kevin's words, and just as Kevin thought she might understand his helplessness, Nia suddenly stood up and before he could react, she slapped him in the face.

"How dare you take the initiative to give up Stable Growth!" Nia gritted her teeth and spat out these words, which she had chewed on with anger.

Kevin's self-esteem was damaged after being slapped, but he still turned his face back to Nia and said, considering her feelings,

"I have no other way, if not like this..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, Nia raised her hand and slapped him in the face. Her explosive shout filled his ears, "Do you know what Stable Growth means to me?! It's something I earned with my life and body! And you just gave it away like that! Who the hell do you think you are?!"

"Enough!" Being hit twice, still on the face, Kevin's endurance had been pushed to the limit. He stood up abruptly and grabbed Nia's arm and shouted,

"If I don't do this, do you think Casper will let you go?! Intentional injury! Nia! The police have the surveillance of the hotel. There is other way to convict you! If Casper refuses to let go, you know how many years you will be sentenced huh?! By the time you come out, even if Stable Growth hadn't been handed over, it would have been a different person long ago!"

Nia was taken aback by Kevin's yelling, and her eyes slowly filled with tears. In just a few seconds, the tears began to fall down her cheeks.

"Kevin... that's the company I earned with my dignity!" Nia collapsed, but she still felt indignant inside.

Kevin felt a bit heartbroken when he saw Nia like this. He helped her back to her seat and crouched in front of her, who was burying her head and crying, saying,

"Nia, I understand how you feel, but your freedom is more important. Without it, you'll have a criminal record after serving your sentence. What's the point of keeping Stable Growth? And why should I struggle alone outside? Besides, Stable Growth is just a stepping stone for us to establish ourselves in Athegate. With Lauren and the two hundred million funds he invested in us, are you afraid we can't make a comeback? Moreover, Casper has already targeted us because of Stable Growth. So returning it to him won't make any difference."

As Nia listened to Kevin's words, her crying gradually subsided. After a long while, she lifted her head and asked Kevin with tears in her eyes,

"Can we make a comeback?"

"But..." Nia sobbed, "I've lost all my face."

Nia's thoughts proved that Kevin's words had an effect.

"Don't be afraid. As long as we have money and power in the business world, people will still come to flatter us. Besides, everyone at the scene knew that Leon and his gang started this whole thing. We did nothing wrong, so we don't have to worry about what others say." Kevin continued to encourage Nia.

Finally, Nia stopped crying and looked pitifully at Kevin.

"But I said those things to Eve in jail..."

"You know you went too far with your words?" Kevin scolded while wiping her tears away. Seeing her eyes start to become uneasy, he smiled and said,

"Don't worry. Your sister still cares about you just as much as before, and Lauren is still deeply in love with her. With this relationship between them, we have nothing to fear."

Hearing these words finally put Nia at ease; she hugged him tightly and whispered an apology into his chest. Kevin laughed it off saying he didn't mind before adding,

"This time, Casper took advantage of the situation by taking back Stable Growth for himself while also replacing a group of high-level executives under various pretexts along with their clients who originally belonged to Stable Growth. However, this storm has only helped Stand Hill grow even stronger."

But within a few days after the incident occurred, rumors began circulating in tabloids, claiming that everything was just another one of Casper's staged performances: first causing trouble during Nia's party, then using it as an opportunity for provocation, resulting in injury before finally forcing Nia into giving up Stable Growth through reconciliation tactics - causing public opinion uproar! Although Casper was enjoying his momentary success now, his reputation had hit rock bottom; even those around him were mocking him over it!

In a debauched atmosphere inside a private room sat a wealthy young man teasing their host Casper,

"Mr. Wood! That move was brilliant! You left poor little Nia with nothing!"

Casper held onto a woman without uttering a word while coldly glancing over at the young man who made fun of him on purpose. Another rich man joined in on the fun shouting,

"But Mr. Wood's reputation is now tarnished! You better be careful from now on or else my dad won't let me hang out with you anymore."

Casper frowned and the next second, he threw a bottle of wine towards the women who were twisting their waists in the hall. The sound of shattering glass scared all the women and they screamed immediately.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Leon saw that things were getting out of hand and quickly ushered all the women out. There was no other sound in the private room except for loud music. The two rich young men didn't expect Casper to lose his temper like that, so they just looked at each other without saying anything.

Billy had a good relationship with Casper, so he turned off the music and spoke seriously to him, "Casper, although their words are harsh, they have a point. Your reputation is not good right now, but you shouldn't take it lightly. My dad and those old stubborn people still value partners' integrity very much. You need to do some public relations work."

Casper's face darkened and it was unclear whether he listened to Billy's words or not.

The excitement had disappeared by now, so Billy saw that Casper was feeling down and pulled everyone up saying, "Let's go back first. You think about it." Everyone else followed him eagerly as if waiting for this sentence from Billy; only Casper and Leon remained in the private room.

Casper stared at the flickering lights on the floor without knowing what he was thinking about while Leon pondered for a moment before approaching him, "Mr. Wood, what Mr. George said is right. We can't let public opinion continue like this or else there will be dire consequences."

"Public opinion?" Casper sneered coldly finally speaking up, "Is it really public opinion or is Nia and Kevin playing tricks?"

Leon furrowed his brows but didn't dare say anything because there were things on his mind which couldn't be spoken aloud; instead he silently handed over a glass of water to Casper.

Casper gave Leon a sideways glance, "I know what you want to say - because of my agreements with Lucia, I can't trouble Nia temporarily?"
