She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 336

"But it's not him that Lucia loves!" Helena immediately retorted. After she finished speaking, she realized the displeasure in her mother's eyes. She lowered her eyes slightly and said with grievance,

"I'm not wrong."

Esmae gave Helena a cold look and said firmly,

"What's the use of love? Love can only bring endless harm. Look at what happened to Lucia and Arthur after they're in love? Betrayal, abandonment, hurt. Even if it wasn't Arthur's original intention, it's a fact that Arthur didn't protect Lucia well ! What's the use of a man like that?!"

"But..." Helena retorted in a low voice unwillingly, "Isn't the greatest blessing in a woman's life, that she can be with the man she loves? Even if she is hurt, I believe she will be happy."

Esmae didn't say anything, just looked at her daughter quietly. Seeing that there was a clear hesitation between her eyebrows that was different from the past, she asked,

"Helena, do you have a man you like?"

"Ah?" Helena's eyes flashed, and she responded quickly, "No, how could it be?"

"Really?" Esmae stared into Helena's eyes with doubts in her heart. If she wasn't in love, how could she say such deep words?

"It's true," Helena forced her eyes to be firm. She looked back at Esmae and said, "Mom, don't you know me yet? If that person does show up, I'll definitely take him to see you right away."

This was true...

Esmae thought that Helena had always been the person who can't hide things, so she didn't continue but said instead,

"Anyway, don't meddle in Lucia's affairs. I have my own standards for doing things."

Helena breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she couldn't help worrying about Lucia. With her mother's tone, there was really no room to change.

Knowing Esmae's character, Helena stopped talking about Lucia, and the focus of the chat returned to Theodore. It happened that Theodore came downstairs. The atmosphere instantly became lively because of the addition of the little doll. Seeing the continuous smile on Esmae's face, Helena could only pray in her heart for a miracle to happen.

In the evening, after hesitating for a long time, Helena called a person she remembered.

"Reynolds, are you busy?" The person Helena contacted was her second brother Reynolds Brown.

"I'll take your calls no matter how busy I'm." Reynolds' voice was mellow and magnetic, and he spoke to Helena with a tender brotherly indulgent feeling.

"Reynolds, where are you now? Why haven't I heard from you lately?" Helena asked Reynolds.

"Are you just curious?" Reynolds asked Helena back with a chuckle, omitting her question.

"Of course I'm curious," Helena said. "Mom got Lucia and Spencer engaged on the 5th of next month. Don't you have any doubts?"

Reynolds' admiration for Lucia was well known, and his style was bold. Helena wondered why he didn't question his mother.
