She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 401

Lucia returned to the hospital when Arthur and Eduard had not yet returned. She entered the door to see Theodore had fallen asleep, but his face, which should have been innocent and childish, slightly wrinkled because of the ongoing pain. Lucia gasped and her eyes instantly turned red ...

She did it right ... She was right ...

Now Lucia can only tell herself this to be able to continue to hold on.

Daphne was lying on the edge of Theodore's bed and had been sleeping. When she heard the sound of footsteps, she immediately looked up and saw Lucia standing at the door. She stood up and asked anxiously.

"Lucia, where have you been tonight? We're all so anxious!"

"Shhh ..." Lucia made a silent gesture to Daphne, signaling her not to wake up Theodore. Daphne immediately shut up, but the next second scampered to Lucia like a rabbit, asking her with her eyes what was going on.

"Daphne ..." Looking into Daphne's simple but anxious eyes, Lucia really did not know what to say. If she knew what happened in the hotel, will she still look at her like this and call her? Lucia thought bitterly in her heart.

"Lucia?" Daphne, who had never seen such a complicated look in Lucia's eyes before, called out to her in confusion, and as soon as she said so, she looked away and said with excitement,

"Eduard, Arthur, Lucia has returned."

It turned out that Daphne had seen Arthur and Eduard, who had just returned.

Lucia's body shook slightly. Her nails poked into her palms, and she bowed her head to conceal all the emotions.

Seeing Lucia again, although only seeing her back, Arthur felt like a century had passed so long.

Sensing that Arthur had stopped, Eduard immediately and thoughtfully stepped forward, crossed over to Lucia and pulled Daphne out of the room, saying.

"Daphne , Lucia is back. Let's go too."

"Huh?" Daphne was confused about the current atmosphere.

"It's late. We have to take a plane tomorrow. Come on, come back to the hotel with me." Now it was impossible to explain anything. Eduard simply took Daphne's hand and went to the other side of the corridor. Daphne dared not shout in the hospital, but can only keep looking back to Lucia. Stammering, she can not say complete words.

The sound of Eduard and Daphne talking faded away, leaving Lucia and Arthur alone at the door of the ward.

Even without turning around, Lucia knew that Arthur had been watching her. Her palms had been pierced with deep nail marks, but this was still not as bad as the pain she felt in her heart by a billionth.

Someone had to break the silence, and Lucia chose to let herself do it.

Turning her head slowly, there was no warmth in Lucia's eyes. She coldly opened her mouth at Arthur, "Why are you still here?"

Arthur really never tried this feeling. Being treated coldly by the woman he loved, his heart hurt so much.
