She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 331

Lucia smiled at Helena, and the bond between the two was self-evident.

"By the way," Helena said suddenly as if remembering something, "Lucia, have you seen my brother?"

"No, is he in the country now?" Lucia asked in surprise.

"I'm not very sure either. It's fine if you haven't seen him." Helena said indifferently.

That night, Helena, Lucia and Arthur chatted a lot, and Helena dropped them off at the airport early the next morning. Although Theodore was reluctant to leave his parents, he still held back his tears and looked like a little man. It made Lucia feel even more distressed, holding Theodore for a long time without letting go.

Arthur kissed him a lot when he said goodbye to Theodore. He had a lot of guilt for Theodore. Since the two met, in fact, he didn't have much time to do what a father should do, so he promised him when he parted,

"Teddy, behave well. We will pick you up soon. Your grandparents will be there too, and our family will be reunited."

Theodore's eyes were red, and he nodded bravely. After deeply hugging his parents, he was carried back by Helena, and he watched them leave firmly.

Lucia's eyes were also red. She was afraid that she would cry in front of Theodore, so she quickly turned around and pulled Arthur forward. Just after walking a few steps, she heard Theodore shouting from behind,

"Mummy, Daddy, I am waiting for you!"

Hearing the child's shouting, she should have choked up. Lucia covered her mouth and dragged Arthur forward quickly. She didn't dare to look back, because once she turned around, she was really reluctant to leave.

Arthur held Lucia's hand distressedly. At this moment, only he could truly understand her sadness, because he felt the same as hers, and he didn't dare to look back. God knew how much he wanted to turn around and hug that little boy.

Finally, Theodore cried. Laying in Helena's arms, he cried aloud. Helena coaxed him, feeling distressed and heartbroken.

After a long time, Theodore's cry gradually slowed down, and his mood gradually stabilized. He raised his head from Helena's arms, looked at her and asked seriously, with tears in his eyes,

"Helena, what happened between mom and Esmae?"

"So you've always noticed?" Helena was not surprised. Theodore's IQ was higher than that of an adult, and he must have been alert when so many things happened.

"Yes," Theodore raised his little hand and wiped away his tears, and continued, "I didn't ask before because I believed Mummy could handle it, but these days I saw Mummy was always in a trance when she was alone. No matter what she encountered before, she would not be so dazed. This time she must have encountered something that could not be solved."

Even though Theodore was only six years old, he analyzed things in a straightforward manner, and his words were more well-founded than adults.

Helena looked at the sensible Theodore and hesitated whether to tell him such a complicated matter. Although he was smart, he was still a little boy.

"Won't you tell me?" Theodore asked Helena and winked.

"Teddy, you are still young. Lucia wants you to grow up in a carefree environment. Knowing that things between adults will only make you unhappy." Helena explained as carefully as possible.
