She Is A CEO

On this day, Arthur was working on a proposal with several executives when Juliana came into the conference room with a big belly.

"Mr. Davies, Ms. Knight is here." Kyle couldn't stop Juliana and didn't dare, so he decided to inform Arthur first before she entered the office.

Arthur looked up from the file, frowned slightly and then dismissed the others. Soon, Juliana did come in.

"Julia, why are you coming to the office now that you have trouble moving around?" Arthur asked.

Juliana looked around. Seeing that no one else was there, she frowned and asked him, "You've come back home late after work recently. Is the company's business so important?"

"Well, I got an important project to bid for, and I'm sorry for neglecting you," Arthur said sincerely.

Juliana frowned at Arthur for a while, lowered her eyes and said, "Recently, the fetal movement is getting stronger and stronger. I have a hunch that the child is eager to come out, so I feel uneasy staying alone at home."

"Isn't there Peter and some maids at home?" Arthur said.

Juliana immediately retorted, "They're not the same as you ..."

Arthur seemed to understand the meaning of Juliana's words and said after a sigh, "You can stay at the office with me, but not for too long. If you are tired, go home right away, okay?"

"OK." Juliana finally cracked a smile and responded sweetly.

So, Juliana went back to work with Arthur. Although Arthur had told her to go home if she felt tired, Juliana didn't seem to feel tired. She sat quietly and killed time by reading a magazine or fiddling with her phone.

Half a month had passed, Arthur's bidding proposal was about to be finished. Juliana had quietly stayed with him without any complaint. Arthur suddenly had a complicated feeling. If Juliana and he really loved each other, perhaps they would be a happy couple.

With this idea, Arthur was much gentler to Juliana, and even the tensions between them were eased. They could talk and laugh in their free time, as if they had gone back to the happy childhood time. "Arthur, come on. The baby is kicking me again." While Arthur was at work, Juliana suddenly called him, rubbing her stomach.

Arthur hurried over to Juliana, reached out and tenderly stroked her belly. He could feel the fetal movement. It seemed that the baby was turning over or doing something else. Arthur had Theodore as his son, but he had never experienced such a thing, and he felt it amazing.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

"It's amazing, isn't it?" Juliana asked Arthur with a gentle smile.

Arthur nodded, his eyes soft as ever.

"It will be born in just over a month. Now I'm hungry every day and will get up at night to get the cook to cook something for me," Juliana said with a smile.

Arthur smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly. It was new information to him.

Juliana looked at Arthur's guilty face and continued, "I'm hungry right now, and there's a cake store on Ebon Street which sells delicious pudding. I'd love to try it."

"Ebon Street?" Arthur thought about the location for a moment, and said to Juliana, "I'll have Kyle go get it for you."

"No," Juliana said softly, tugging at Arthur's sleeve. "My mother asked me to be rather careful about what I ate in the three trimester... Arthur, can you go get it for me on your own?"

Juliana's cautious tone of voice made Arthur feel guiltier. They used to be best friends, but now she asked him to do such a small thing in an imploring voice.

Aware that he was perhaps too indifferent to Juliana, Arthur responded, "Okay, I'll go get it for you now."

"Arthur, thank you." Juliana smiled sweetly, her voice very gentle.

Arthur shook his head, stood up and told her to wait for a while before she went out. Juliana followed Arthur to the door and made sure he really left before walking back. She turned to look at his desk. Hesitating for a moment, she finally walked over.

Perhaps because he had felt the fetal movement, Arthur was more concerned about her. Even at the end of the project proposal, he did not forget to show concern for her.

Half a month later, the bidders conference of the development project of the islands was held.

On that day, Arthur attended the bidders conference. He was well prepared. He believed that Spencer could not play any trick this time, and that he could win the project.

The bid project was a popular one that attracted many investors, each bringing their own well-prepared proposals, and JTP was no exception.

The bidders conference began. Arthur and Jacob were just a few seats away from each other. After the moderator announced that the base price was one billion. Some small investment companies offered their prices, but the price did not increase largely until some powerful investment companies joined, and the price began to multiply.

Slowly, the price reached ten billion, and only a few financial giants could compete with one another. Those small investment companies could only stay to watch the show.

The price kept increasing, Arthur was participating in the bidding by offering 100 million more each other, but he noticed that Jacob had not taken any action. Arthur was puzzled yet determined to win the project, so he participating actively. Finally, the bid price reached 20 billion, which was offered by Arthur. Several other people competing with him did not raise their bidding card after thinking for a long time. "25 billion!" Just as the moderator was about to announce the project would be won by Davonnis Corp, Jacob suddenly raised his bidding card, and increased the price by 50 billion.

Arthur smiled faintly. He knew that Jacob would not sit by and do nothing, so he also raised his bidding card, "30 billion!"

"35 billion!" Jacob said as soon as Arthur finished.

"40 billion!" Arthur offered a higher price. At this time Kyle beside him leaned over and whispered to Arthur, who nodded and looked ahead with sharp eyes.

"45 billion!" Moments later, Jacob said again.

Arthur frowned slightly. Kyle beside him looked bad. He had just reminded Arthur maximum price they could offer to bid for this project. Now the bidding price had far exceeded their budget. Besides, they needed an additional pool of funds for the development project. If the project was unsuccessful, they had to take a huge risk.
