She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 133

"Okay, let's go to the corner." After saying that, Arthur walked to the corner with Juliana in his arms, but he didn't notice Juliana glancing back with a triumphant smile on her lips.

Not far away, Lucia was lost in thought.

It was undeniable that the intimacy between Arthur and Juliana made her feel very uncomfortable.

Though she had offered to break up with Arthur, her feelings for him did not dissipate because of the breakup and even became stronger.

Yesterday, Theodore asked Lucia about Auntie Juliana to know why she was living in his father's villa. Only then did she know Juliana had come back with Arthur and even lived in his villa again.

In Lucia's mind, Juliana had no morals. She didn't want to guess Juliana's intention, but she couldn't help thinking about why Juliana was so close to Arthur.

'Forget it. Anyway... It's none of my business.'

Lucia looked away and thought sadly.

"Lucia, stop looking." Eduard, who was standing next to her, had noticed Lucia's movements and read her thoughts, so he comforted her in a soft voice.

"I have tried..." Lucia sighed lightly, and the light that flickered in her eyes faded away.

Lucia's frustrated look saddened Eduard. Seeing Arthur walk to a quiet corner with Juliana in his arms, he got an idea and suddenly said to Lucia, "Lucia, excuse me for a minute. I need to go to the bathroom."

Lucia had no doubts and nodded. Right on cue, a partner came over to her. Lucia started chatting with him and paid no attention to where Eduard went.

Actually, Eduard didn't go to the bathroom. Instead, he walked to Arthur and Juliana.

Seeing them making out in the corner, he felt sorry for Lucia and walked over without hesitation.

"Mr. Davies, it's been a long time."

When Arthur was showing concern for Juliana, he saw Eduard coming over, raised his eyebrows, and replied politely, "Mr. Burton, it's been a long time."

After saying that, he looked behind Eduard, thinking, 'Is it okay for him to leave Lucia alone to deal with others?'

"Miss Knight? Why do you look all haggard?" Though Eduard sympathized with Juliana's misfortune, it didn't mean that he could forgive her for her evil plan of framing him and Lucia.

What Juliana feared most tonight was that Eduard would come to her. Seeing him really coming over, she shrank into Arthur's arms and her soft voice said, "Arthur, I can't hold on any longer. Let's go back."

"What's the rush? We haven't seen each other since the last charity event, have we, Miss Knight?" Eduard looked at Juliana with a smile. His words seemingly implied something.

"Mr. Burton, Julia is feeling unwell. We'll have to talk another day," Arthur said to Eduard when he saw the grimace of discomfort on Juliana's face.

"How could it be?" Eduard pretended to be surprised and said, "I thought Lucia was weak enough. At the last charity event, Lucia got drunk. Miss Knight took Lucia to the hotel room she got for a rest. She could hold Lucia to the room. I thought she was strong. By the way, Miss Knight, we went to look for Lucia separately that night, right?"

Eduard's intention was evident. He came here to nail Juliana's lie with words full of sarcasm.
