Chapter 974 The Golden Mean
Lucia didn’t deny it and responded directly to Lauren, and then said to Eve,
“Miss Davidson, can you tell your sister that I’m here to find her?”
Eve bit her lower lip, undecided in her mind. Her sister said that she was a bad woman, and she will never do anything good if she came to her!
But looking at Lucia’s faint smile, Eve still nodded in a mysterious way, turned around and went to the room to call her sister.
Eve walked suddenly. Looking at her back, Lucia said casually,
“Miss Davidson is so innocent.”
Lauren frowned and stared at Lucia, but Lucia smiled deeper under his stare.
“Why? Can’t I just talk about it?”
“How much do you know!” Lauren asked Lucia directly, not interested in beating around the bush.
“Hmm… Let me think about it…” Lucia “reminisced” in distress, and then said, “I know that Nia and Eve are two sisters, and I know that you are ‘very’ good to Eve.”
“Casper told you!” Lauren said coldly.
“I came to find Nia today because of Casper’s entrustment,” Lucia said without hiding it, “Sir, I have a grudge against Nia. You have to appear as her protector, so we are bound to become enemies in the future. Maybe this is what you said earlier.”
Lucia spoke for Arthur, and she was reminding Lauren.
“How much do you know about my identity?” Lauren was so perceptive, and felt that there was something in Lucia’s words.
But Lucia didn’t answer him immediately. Seeing that Eve had brought Nia over, she passed Lauren to meet them, and left words beside him when she passed by.
“I just know you’re the guy who accosted me twice but pretended not to know me in front of Eve.”
Lauren looked down when he heard this, and when he turned around, Lucia had already walked a few steps away. Looking at her back, Lauren was thoughtful.
“Miss Davidson, long time no see. How are you doing?” Seeing Nia, Lucia greeted with a smile.
Nia frowned, couldn’t figure out why Lucia came looking for her, and how she knew she was here!
But she still put on a smiling face and said,
“Ms. Webb, the matter between us has nothing to do with my sister. Let’s talk in the coffee shop downstairs if you want to tell me something.”
These ambiguous words further confirmed that Lucia was a woman who made things difficult for her sister, and Eve slandered Lucia in her heart.
“Okay.” Lucia nodded briskly, walked into the elevator with Nia without saying much, and waved to Eve before the elevator doors closed.
As the elevator doors closed, Nia asked Lucia,
“Do you know my sister well?”
“After chatting for a while, your sister is a very innocent girl, and such a character can be easily taken advantage of by others.” Lucia said meaningfully.
“Don’t worry about this, Ms Webb. With me, no one can take advantage of her.” Nia didn’t give way too much.
The two looked at each other and smiled, with the same coldness in their eyes.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
When Lucia left with her sister, Eve was so worried that she had long forgotten the purpose of coming out.
“Eve, aren’t you going to pick up candied fruit? I’ll accompany you.” Lauren didn’t seem to care much about the meeting between Lucia and Nia.
“Eh…” Eve came back to her senses and responded, and then muttered to herself, “Is this person Lucia…”
“Although your sister and her are friendly on the surface, they are not good friends. You should be careful when you meet this person in the future.” In order to prevent Lucia from contacting Eve again, Lauren cautiously reminded her, but he didn’t know that his ambiguous words worsened Eve’s impression of Lucia.
“Got it,” Eve nodded obediently, “I don’t want to meet her either…”
This sentence was for her own selfishness.
Lauren didn’t pay attention to Eve’s words, and went to pick up the candied fruit with her.
When they came to the hotel’s coffee shop, Lucia and Nia found a place to sit down, and after they ordered drinks, Lucia said,
“You should know why I came here to find you, right?”
“I don’t understand.” Nia did not understand.
“Casper asked me to come. He wants to use me to lure you out of the hotel, and then force you to sign the document of Stable Growth’s change of ownership.” Lucia told Casper’s plan without reservation.
“What?!” Nia was shocked when she heard the words, and then slowly calmed down. She told herself not to be panic. Since Lucia told her the truth, then there was a turning point!
“Ms. Webb, why are you telling me this? Didn’t you come here to help Casper?”
“Who said I’m going to help him?” Lucia suddenly felt amused, “I don’t believe you and Casper, and neither will help.”
“Then you…” Nia was really dumbfounded now.
“I came here because I was curious about who the person protecting you is, but seeing how considerate he is to your sister just now, I probably already have the answer.” Lucia said with a smile.
Nia’s heart pounded when she heard this. Could it be that Lucia already knew Lauren’s identity? How much truth was there in her words?
“Indeed, Arthur and I may not protect you wholeheartedly. You guessed it right. It’s not bad to be able to rely on such a man, and I save myself guessing.” Staring at Nia’s swaying eyes, Lucia spoke bluntly again. To be honest, if she didn’t say anything anyway, Nia will still guess her intentions like this.
“Ms. Webb, are you going to look on my trouble with indifference?” Nia asked with a sneer.
“Of course, do I still have to get involved? You say that Casper is Jacob’s man, and Casper claims that you and Jacob are collaborating. I have no way of verifying it. So I can only believe neither side,” Lucia said deliberately.
“But I’m not going to ignore either side, because you both have a stake in Jacob’s whereabouts.”
Nia’s eyes widened even wider this time! Casper even pointed out in front of Lucia that she had a relationship with Jacob? ! Angry in her heart, Nia knew that Casper was serious this time and just let her tell Lucia truthfully who Casper was , but she didn’t want Lucia to take advantage of it.
“Then you can guess. Since you don’t intend to ignore it, can I make a small request?” Nia pondered for a moment, with a sly flash in her eyes, and suddenly said to Lucia.
“Sure.” Lucia picked up the coffee and took a sip, staring at Nia.
“Stable Growth is everything to me. Now Casper wants to take it away. I don’t have the strength to fight against his gang, so I want to use your hand to keep Stable Growth.” Nia sat up straight and watched Lucia seriously.
