She Is A CEO

Chapter 1115 Entangled Again and Again

Actually, Casper probably understood the reason behind the conflict between himself and Nia. In the eyes of the public, their struggle revolved around Lucia. She had changed her mind before and may do so again in the future, so everyone was no longer following her lead.

Meanwhile, Nia and Kevin were working hard to prepare for their new company. The news kept coming into Casper's ears, making him even more restless.

He suddenly felt like he'd been wasting his time all along. Even though he'd fought this far, he still can't touch Webbex Group.

Time flied by quickly as Nia and Kevin finished their preparations for Fabulous Dav's Financial Services' launch on the market with great fanfare. They became a hot topic overnight. Kevin even rehired some former Stable Growth executives who were fired by Casper himself. This move not only earned them sincere admiration but also a good reputation in the industry.

Unfortunately, at this time Leon reported that some clients who had previously transferred from Stable Growth to Fabulous Dav's were considering ending their cooperation due to its current popularity. This made Casper furious!Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"What did you say?! How dare they?!"

"I heard it from someone below," Leon trembled under Casper's anger, "But I think they won't do it because of breach of contract."

Leon should have kept quiet but now that he had spoken up, it only made things worse for Casper as he slammed his hand on his desk and shouted angrily, "Do I have to resort to using breach-of-contract fees to control my clients?!"

In the past people begged him for cooperation!

Leon glanced at him quietly without daring to answer back.

"Nia! Kevin!" Casper gritted his teeth while saying these two names fiercely.

As soon as Fabulous Dav entered into market, attention was drawn towards them especially since rumors were circulating that there were bigwigs helping Nia and Kevin behind-the-scenes which attracted many people trying get closer with them; Nia spent her days feeling proud while walking around like she owned everything.

Nia originally wanted a grand opening banquet to overshadow Stand Hill's popularity but Kevin disagreed.

In their newly renovated CEO office space, and under bright lights, Kevin openly embraced Nia while advising,

"Our company has just entered into market. Now isn't high-profile time yet. Given how cunningly devious Casper is, if we aren't careful, then he might use dirty tricks against us."

"Hmph," Nia snorted discontentedly, "I was going show off my skills too but since you said so let's wait until next time."

"Are you afraid that there won't be another chance in the future?" Kevin teased as he playfully pinched Nia's chin.

"Well, this is good enough for now. We can't do anything about Casper," Nia enjoyed Kevin's caresses with a smug look on her face.

"But we still need to be careful," Kevin paused for a moment and explained when he saw Nia looking at him, "Lauren hasn't made any moves yet."

As soon as the topic was brought up, Nia became angry. She sat up straight and said indignantly, "It's all Eve's fault! If she could be more assertive, would Lauren dare not listen? If it were me..." "What did you say?" Kevin stared at Nia and asked.

Nia didn't expect to blurt out her thoughts so quickly. She quickly changed her tone to a coquettish one and leaned against Kevin saying, "I'm just annoyed that she can't get things done." "Wait another half month. Once I stabilize the situation, if Lauren still doesn't make a move, we'll take matters into our own hands!" After speaking, an evil glint appeared in Kevin's eyes. He had already taken lives before; what was one more?

Nia loved seeing how decisive and ruthless Kevin could be. This was the attitude of a true leader. With this thought in mind, she melted into his embrace and entrusted all decision-making to him. Although Webbex Group had increased its investment in StandHill significantly recently, Lucia remained indifferent towards Casper as if nothing had happened even though she was now one of StandHill's major shareholders herself. Even when they inevitably met at some formal business meetings, Lucia simply turned around and left without saying anything else after each encounter with Casper. Lucia was born and raised in Athegate City so she would attend some formal business meetings held within or outside their city personally unlike Arthur who couldn't care less about such socializing events which were mostly delegated to lower-level executives instead.

Casper missed two opportunities already due to being unable to arrange private meetings with her, but he decided, in today's young entrepreneurs' symposium, he would present an opportunity for him to finally catch up with Lucia.

After the meeting ended like usual Lucia left promptly accompanied by Davonnis Corp's manager who followed behind her while every other employee from Davonnis Corp assumed that Lucia must have been their CEO's wife. Lucia never stayed behind for small talk like others did either - but Casper seized his chance immediately following closely behind them until Gracie noticed him trailing along beside them once they stepped out of building premises together again today.

"Ms. Webb, Mr. Wood followed us," Gracie said with a frown, clearly unimpressed by Casper.

Lucia sighed, feeling like she couldn't shake him off no matter what she did. This was the third time he had shown up unexpectedly.

"Ms. Webb, let me handle him," the manager from Davonnis Corp offered to help.

"No need," Lucia rubbed her wrist in frustration and stopped walking. She wanted nothing more than to give Casper a piece of her mind but knew it wouldn't solve anything. "Gracie, wait for me at the entrance and sir, you can go back."

"But Ms. Webb..." The manager hesitated but eventually followed Gracie's lead and continued walking ahead.

Left alone in the hallway, Lucia turned towards a door leading to the atrium of the conference building - an area rarely used by anyone else.

Casper saw everyone leave Lucia's side and assumed she was giving him an invitation to follow her into the atrium without saying it out loud. He felt relieved until he turned around a corner only to find that Lucia wasn't there anymore.

He looked around frantically for another exit when he heard her voice behind him say, "Stop looking."

Lucia had been leaning against one of the walls all along and watched as Casper searched for her in vain.

Her voice sounded clear as water but held no hint of kindness or sympathy towards his situation - just pure mockery.

Casper felt humiliated that he fell for such an obvious trap set up by someone who clearly didn't want anything to do with him anymore.
