She Is A CEO

Theodore, who had changed into a small suit, followed Lucia and became the center of attention. He held his head high and posed as a business elite.

"Teddy, you follow Auntie Nia and don't wander off."

According to the bylaws, the new executive officer had to make a speech, and she was prepared for it. After asking Nia to take care of Teddy, she walked onto the stage with all eyes on her.

Behind her, the led screen showed a propaganda picture of Jibillion Inc's finance.

She stood there, with a strong, mesmerizing aura.

She picked up the microphone and faced the employees of Jibillion Inc with the speech in mind.

The crowd held their breath and just as she parted her red lips, a clear voice came unexpectedly, "I heard that Jibillion Inc has a new executive officer, on behalf of JTP Group, I would like to welcome you." The voice was not very high-pitched but sounded out of place in the quiet venue.

The woman, in a white dress, entered the venue with strides, raising her chin smugly, like a proud peacock.

Lucia's body trembled slightly. She could never forget that smug face not far from her!Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Poppy was here to screw up the welcome dinner!

Clearly, it was a welcome party held by Jibillion Inc, but Poppy walked through the venue as if she was strolling through her backyard. Her gaze contemptuously swept across the management of Jibillion Inc, as if they were dirt in her eyes.

And when she met the pretty eyes on the stage, she paused. Five years passed in the twinkling of an eye.

It was Lucia! She was back?

Her face blanched, her voice shrill and high-pitched, "Why are you here!"

The crowd was puzzled, "Why the hell did the vice president of JTP Group come here?"

Poppy hooked up with Jacob. The two conspired to obtain Webbex Group with dirty tricks and they did it. Thus, she turned from a penniless woman to vice president.

Lucia found it absurd and unlucky to see Poppy on the first day at home.

The venue was slightly chaotic as security guards tried to barge in and take Poppy away, but were stopped by Poppy's bodyguards behind her.

She was here to cause trouble and everyone knew it!

It was known to all that JTP Group recently cooperated with Jibillion Inc. Perhaps because Jibillion made a mistake, Poppy brought his men to Jibillion Inc two days ago to make a scene. This incident made the executive officer resign voluntarily under pressure.

Poppy got word that a new executive was coming to take over Jibillion Inc, so she couldn't let go of this opportunity to put the squeeze on him or her, but she never expected there would be a big surprise on stage!

Lucy? The executive? Lucia?

Having animosity against Lucia, Poppy blew a fuse, thinking, "How dared she come back?"

Lucia stood still with a composed look, glancing at Poppy like she was a wild dog that barged in.

Poppy, who was ignored, said arrogantly with crossed arms over her chest, "You're not just back, but you're back as the executive of Jibillion Inc. What? Jibillion Inc could only appoint a dissolute woman as the executive?"

The words, 'dissolute woman', sounded harsh.

Before Lucia could say anything, one of the management of Jibillion got annoyed and retorted, "Mrs. Taylor, the welcome party held by Jibillion Inc has nothing to do with you. You come here uninvited. We deserve at least a hint of your respect, don't we?"

Poppy didn't change color. She curled her lips into a smile and stared viciously at Lucia on the stage saying meaningfully, "Sure, I come here to show my respect. You know what? Your executive is my old friend!"

Old friend?

As Poppy finished speaking, the watching crowd was whispering in the venue.

Lucia looked down on Poppy who was provoking her with a calm expression. It had been five years. She had learned to endure silently and restrain her emotions.

"Huh."

Poppy was surprised and amazed that Lucia could remain indifferent after she had said so many barbed words.

She still remembered Lucia's tearful face five years ago!

Recalling the past, Poppy felt a sense of superiority. Walking to the stage idly, she looked up at Lucia. Tensions between them grew.

Lucia remained indifferent, evoking a hint of annoyance in Poppy.

Poppy thought, 'She has changed! She seems unperturbed by anything! Pretending to be calm?'

Poppy gritted her teeth, turned to face the crowd, and leisurely said, "She is Lucy? None of you knows her previous identity?"

Lucia's face darkened, and her hand holding the table clenched.

"What's her identity?" Someone popped up and asked.

Someone was curious about it. That was what Poppy expected.

She smiled as if she was talking about the weather, "I wonder if any of you remembers the name, Lucia Webb?"

Lucia Webb?

It was a familiar name to locals in Athegate.

Lucia was the daughter of the former president of Webbex Group, known as the most beautiful society gal, and once made a lot of news. But what made her known to all was that she was caught cheating and ended up getting a divorce.

Though after so many years, some media were still making up fake stories about her, some saying she married someone else, some saying she went crazy and some saying she died.

Now Jacob was in charge of JTP Group, but she suddenly emerged as the executive of Jibillion Inc!

Most people's faces changed, and the gazes they cast upon Lucia were mixed with suspicion, contempt, dismay...

Seeing the changes in their facial expression, Poppy seemed to be on cloud nine.

She looked askance at Lucia with a mocking smile on her lips.

'Lucia, so what if you become a Jibillion Inc executive?

You still have to get crushed and ruined by me!'

However, she clearly saw Lucia's sharp eyes. In a flash, she felt as if she had been put in an ice house. Fear came from the bottom of her heart.

'Fear?

How could I fear her!'

Poppy dismissed this absurd idea. Lucia, who had been silent for a long time, slowly said, "Yes, I am Lucia. My coming back this time has nothing to do with JTP Group. I am honored to get an offer from Jibillion Inc. I would like to express my gratitude to Jibillion Inc for choosing me as Executive Officer of European Region!"

Her powerful voice sounded through the venue, while Poppy suddenly burst into laughter, "How is it possible for you to get hired! I think, you must be sleeping with some guy again to get your position!" "Nia," Lucia's face darkened as she gave chills and added pressure, "Have my resume on the screen, please."

She didn't bother to quarrel with Poppy. The best way to shut people up was to defeat them with abilities.

Nia did as she said, and the led screen behind Lucia immediately switched to a resume.

The whole venue was in awe!
