She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 20

Someone knocked at the door of the private box sixteen minutes later. They all thought it was the waiter. One of the male employees stood up to get to the door and got stunned when he saw the man standing outside.

Everyone in Athegate had heard of Arthur.

The male employee didn't know what to do when facing Arthur.

Lucia glanced at him and helped him out of the situation.

"Half an hour has passed," Arthur said to Lucia, but the latter was totally confused.

"Half an hour? What are you talking about?" Lucia said with confusion.

"The text message," Arthur glanced at her and said.

"Oh..." Lucia took a tumble, "You sent that?"

"Yep. Time to go home now." Arthur said, leaving no room for refusal.

Arthur stared at Lucia without a blink. Ten seconds later, Lucia gave in and said, "OK! Then please drive me home."

They had been in the car for more than ten minutes in complete silence. A moment later, Arthur broke the silence, "We're friends now, right?"

Lucia was stunned and said clearly, "Hmm. Right."

"Then, can I ask you a private question?" Arthur added.

Lucia touched her blushed cheeks and asked him casually, "What do you want to ask me?"

"What if..." Arthur hesitated but still asked it out, "Theodore's father shows up?"

He would get the DNA test report the next day and he cared much about it.

Lucia didn't avoid it this time. She said in a low voice, "I don't know. If he shows up, should I hate him or be grateful to him for bringing Theodore to me?"

"Will you hate him?" Arthur disliked her answer unconsciously.

"Everything has two sides. I don't know him at all, and maybe I just can't bring myself to hate him," Lucia said with self-mockery.

"I hope so," said Arthur.

"Excuse me?" Lucia didn't see what Arthur meant.

"Nothing," Arthur said lightly. At that time, his Rolls-Royce Phantom had just turned into the complex. The conversation was over. He was driving very fast that he didn't notice one of his own cars was parked not far from the gate.

But, Jan, sitting in the driving seat, had noticed Arthur's Rolls-Royce Phantom.

'Was that Master Arthur's car?' he thought.

Guided by Lucia, Arthur parked the car right downstairs of her apartment building. Lucia invited Arthur to go upstairs for a visit and the latter agreed instantly.

Sophie had been waiting for Lucia. She ran over to open the door when she heard someone pressing on the coded lock.

Out of her expectation, she looked up and happened to look into the eyes of Arthur, who was standing behind Lucia.

Arthur was so shocked with his mouth slightly open when he saw his mother opening the door for Lucia.

But Sophie recovered from shock very soon. She turned aside to let Lucia in case Lucia became suspicious. Then she said with concern, "You're back, Miss Webb. Your face is red. Did you drink?"

Lucia went in first and answered her at the same time, "Yep. I drank a bit."

She didn't notice Sophie pinched Arthur's arm hard and gave him a warning look.

"I'll be mad at you if you ruin my moments with my grandson!" she warned him secretly.
