She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 158

Arthur's eyes were full of anger, but he couldn't say anything to refute Eduard. He slowly loosened his grip on Eduard's hand, and a trace of frustration came into his eyes.

"What? Too guilty to speak a word?" Eduard fixed his clothes and spared no effort to be sarcastic with Arthur. He couldn't understand why Arthur still had the nerve to come to Lucia after doing something wrong!

"I'll ask you one last time. Where is she?" Arthur lowered his eyes and said in a husky voice.

When Eduard was about to taunt Arthur, a cold female voice echoed in the room, "Let him come up."

It was Lucia's voice!

Arthur raised his head and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

Knowing that it was from the top of the stairs, he pushed Eduard away with one hand and ran upstairs. Eduard stomped his feet angrily. He couldn't understand why Lucia was being soft after Arthur made such a huge mistake!

Eduard's apartment was a two-story duplex apartment. On the second floor were his study and entertainment room. In the middle of the first and second floors, there was a large bay window.

Arthur climbed the spiral stairs rapidly. At the end of the stairs, he saw Lucia sitting on the bay window.

Lucia folded her arms around her knees. The moonlight sprinkled on her through the glass, creating a faint halo. It should be like a surreal moment, but the cold expression on her face pulled Arthur back to reality.

"Lucia!" Arthur finally found her. He rushed to Lucia and reached out to touch her, but she dodged nimbly.

"What's up?" Under the moonlight, Lucia's expression looked obscure, but the cold light in her eyes was more frightening than ever.

Seeing the cold light, Arthur lost his tongue.

Lucia chuckled and turned around to look out of the window. In fact, she had heard the quarrel between him and Eduard just now. She didn't want to see Arthur. Now she asked him to come up just because she didn't want to put Eduard in a predicament.

"Lucia..." Arthur could feel her sadness. He knelt down on one knee without hesitation and looked up at Lucia's side face, explaining, "What happened between Juliana and me was an accident. I don't know how it happened."

Arthur was telling the truth, but his explanation sounded like a feeble excuse.

"An accident? Don't you know how it happened?" Lucia had faith in Arthur. Even though he had once suspected her, her faith in him was never shaken. But now, hearing what he said, she only felt it absurd to trust him.

"You hugged her by accident. You didn't know how you made out with her. Arthur, don't you feel your explanation ridiculous?" Lucia turned around, stared at Arthur, and asked seriously.

"I..." Being stared at by Lucia, Arthur could not say anything to defend himself.

At this moment, he could only say, "Lucia, I'm sorry."

"Keep your apology to someone that can take it," Lucia said coldly.

The guilty look in Arthur's eyes only disgusted her.

It was the first time that Arthur saw a look of disgust on Lucia's face. Arthur was shocked.
