"See?" Lucia said to Eduard with a smile.
"Lucia! Good job!" Although his palm hurt so much, Eduard gave Lucia a trembling thumbs up.
Lucia rolled her eyes at Eduard, but was amused.
On the other side, with boiling rage inside him, Arthur rushed to Spencer when he was alone and asked, "Spencer, do you and Lucia know each other very well?"
When he was watching them dancing on the dance floor and getting closer and closer, the reason left in him was replaced by jealousy.
Spencer was expecting Arthur to be out of control. At this time, seeing Arthur come to him, he feigned an innocent look but was very complacent within himself.
Then he casually replied, "Yep, we are on good terms with each other. Arthur, do you think it's proper for you to ask that question?"
Arthur looked into Spencer's eyes without answering, but the angry look in his eyes revealed all his thoughts.
"Julia's still looking at us." Spencer let out a laugh, gesturing for Arthur to look in Juliana's direction.
Arthur turned his head, and really saw Juliana staring at him in the corner. Complicated feelings surged through him in an instant.
"Your fiancée is by your side. As your cousin, I don't think it's proper for you to get jealous for another woman," Spencer said in a serious tone.
Arthur immediately understood what Spencer was trying to insinuate, so he just said straightforwardly to Spencer, "What exactly is your purpose?"
"Arthur, what do you mean? My purpose?" Spencer asked, playing dumb.
"Why did you approach Lucia? You knew she and I ..." Arthur was more interested in Spencer's purpose for approaching Lucia than in his purpose for coming back home to start up business.
"What happened to her and you?" Spencer kept a calm smile on his face, but there was an intimidating look in his eyes. "Arthur, don't forget what you are, who your fiancée is, and the child you have with Julia!"
Arthur was undeterred, shot daggers at Spencer and said in a deep voice, "Why do you approach her!"
Spencer was startled. Since childhood, he had known Arthur would not give up easily or be threatened by others. Also, Arthur was the greatest one among the Davies of the same generation and Grandfather's favorite grandson. Thus, Spencer always took Arthur as an imaginary enemy. He would try everything to get the same as what Arthur had.
However, it wasn't because Arthur once owned Lucia that Spencer wanted to get her.
Suppressing his feelings, Spencer looked coldly at Arthur and said in a manly manner, "Lucia is beautiful and excellent. You're not the only one who has a crush on her!"
