She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 233

The afterglow was so beautiful. Arthur looked sideways at Lucia, who looked both beautiful and innocent with a red glow on her face.

He said sentimentally, "If only this moment could last forever."

Lucia did not respond, as if she had not heard Arthur's words. Arthur was a little disappointed and could only express his displeasure by wrapping his arms more tightly around Lucia's waist.

Noticing Arthur's childish behavior, Lucia was amused and sad. She heard what he said just now, but she could not and did not dare to respond.

Honestly, she thought the same as him.

Lucia and Arthur were different. Arthur was forced to give up this relationship because of his responsibility for Juliana, but it was Lucia who sustained the hurt. She was hurt badly and had a deeper understanding.

It was clear that Arthur had done so many things to hurt her, but Lucia knew that she still loved him. Also, Lucia realized that she didn't have to be together with him though she loved him. Love was not about possession or living together every day. Love was an instinct, and it had nothing to do with others and even the one being loved.

With this thought in mind, Lucia could get along with Arthur so naturally. Otherwise, she would have fled away as soon as he came near her.

"Lucia, haven't you ever selfishly thought of asking me to leave Juliana alone, to leave her child alone, and to take you and Teddy away?" For some reason, Arthur suddenly asked Lucia.

"Why bother?" Lucia gave the answer at once.

Lucia's answer was simple. Arthur could not help but give a wry smile. He wanted to tell Lucia that the child Juliana gave birth to was probably not his. He wanted to tell her that he was trying to figure out a way to confirm it, but he was afraid that he would make Lucia hope for nothing.

"We have agreed to not mention those things, haven't we?" Lucia turned her head and said with an undertone. Her small face was pink in the afterglow and her eyes were as brilliant as the stars in the night sky.

"I'm sorry," Arthur made an apology. "These few days are too good to be true, and I can't help myself..."

"Just think of it as a dream." Lucia interrupted Arthur.

"If only I wouldn't wake up ..." Arthur put on a bitter smile again. His eyes were flooded with affection for Lucia, though he had tried hard to hide it.

Arthur's pupil color was dreamy. At this time, his eyes were as deep as the sea in the afterglow. Lucia looked into his eyes, tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.

After the kiss, she said softly, "At least, for now, you're still in the dream ..."

Arthur stood frozen in place. When he recovered his wits, Lucia had run ahead to chase Theodore. Mother and son were chasing and playing on the beach. Their laughs came into Arthur's ears.

Lifting his hand to touch his lips, he murmured with his eyes smiling, "Yeah, at least now I'm still in the dream ..."
