She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 393

Spencer stood up instantly when he got the text. The chair nearly fell back because of his movements, and it was ironic that the location where he orchestrated all this was the hotel he shared with the Edwins.

Someone was knocking on the bathroom door. Lucia immediately deleted all the messages and call records she had contacted with Spencer on her phone. Daphne's worried voice sounded outside the door,

"Lucia, are you all right?"

Lucia looked at the time and found that she had been hiding in the bathroom for half an hour, so she quickly replied, "It's okay.I'll come out now."

After she finished speaking, she opened the door, and Daphne stood at the door looking at her worriedly.

"Daphne, sorry. Do you want to use the bathroom?"

"No," Daphne shook her head and asked, "Lucia, what's going on?"

Lucia's eyes flashed, and she forced a smile to ask Daphne, "Why do you ask that?"

"You look..." Daphne continued to stare at Lucia's eyes, and said that she was not sure about her feelings, "Somewhat angry..."

Daphne was very simple, so she was more sensitive to other people's emotional perception.

Lucia was stunned for a second, then lowered her eyes and whispered, "Nothing, you think too much..."

Daphne realized that she made Lucia uncomfortable, so she quickly said, "Lucia, sorry. I was just worried about you..."

"Don't say sorry," Lucia said with a wry smile, "I'm just worried about Teddy's condition, so I'm always in a bad mood, always angry with myself for being powerless. Ans I am afraid of showing too much in front of Arthur and bringing him into my negative emotions too..."

"Lucia..." Daphne was very distressed when she heard Lucia say this, and looked at her with wide eyes, but couldn't say anything comforting.

"It's fine. Teddy will be fine," As a mother, Lucia gently comforted Daphne, who was worried for her, while suffering pain,

"I'm so convinced."

"Well! Teddy will be fine!" Admiring Lucia's strength, Daphne's eyes lit up, and she said firmly, completely forgetting that she had noticed the strangeness of her emotions before.

Lucia breathed a sigh of relief. She was ready to tell a big lie to the person she loved, and she didn't want to lie to anyone else.

Because they were worried about Theodore, and their original purpose was to come for Lucia and Arthur, Eduard and Daphne didn't go anywhere except the hotel and hospital. Daphne, who was abroad for the first time, didn't even give a curious look to the lively city of Chicago, but only cared about the child's condition.

On the other hand, Elliot had to leave because of the company's troubles. He felt guilty for leaving when Teddy's condition deteriorated. He even apologized to the Edwin family. How could Edwin blame his cousin? Everyone had their own life trajectory. He cannot and will not force all people to center on his grandson.
