She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 407

Although stern, he was also loving.

"But ..." Arthur also knew that he can not be weak, but he really hurt. There was like a knife stabbing his heart. Just breathing, it hurt so much.

"No buts!" Edwin said with a voice like a bell and gazed at his son.

"Once you have a 'but', you really can't stand up. Ask yourself what you want and tell yourself to go after it! I don't care what Spencer actually used to blackmail Lucia. If you love her, you need to try to solve this. Don't be dejected until now before it's settled!"

"Arthur, dad is right. There is no conclusion yet. Don't keep silent like this. We are all worried about you." Douglas was the most worried about Arthur, hurriedly echoed his father and said so.

Worried?

Arthur raised his eyes and swept over his brothers and parents, only to find that their eyes were full of concern for him. He had been so silent in his pain that he had forgotten that his negative emotions would also affect them.

Arthur thought of this and simply stood up and said to Edwin, "Dad, I know. I won't give up."

"That's my good son!" Edwin patted Arthur's shoulder with relief.

A few hours later, the plane Eduard and Daphne were on arrived at Athegate. All the way to Athegate, Daphne had a strained look and occasionally glared at Eduard, who was truly tired but didn't know how to explain to her.

Daphne's dissatisfaction reached its peak when she got off the plane, and for the first time, she showed her natural girlishness in front of Eduard. Until she took her luggage, Daphne ignored Eduard. After she took her suitcase, she walked forward by herself, ignoring Eduard who was really helpless and had to go forward and grab her arm.

"Daphne, don't be angry." Gently grabbing Daphne's wrist, Eduard stopped her from moving forward.

"You know I'm angry, don't you?" Daphne pouted as she said, "Why didn't you tell me what happened to Lucia! Why do I feel like something is wrong with her and Arthur?"

"It's not that I don't want to tell you ...," Eduard said helplessly.

"And why is that?" Daphne asked.

"I am not sure how to say it." Eduard sighed. The inner monologue in his heart complained: who told you to worship Lucia so much? If you know what she did, would you still treat her with sincerity?

"Eduard, just tell me. No matter what it is, I can accept it." Daphne pleaded. A pair of big eyes also kept blinking. Her words unconsciously came with the meaning of pampering, immediately hitting Eduard's soft spot.

"Okay," Eduard finally nodded, though this was not the right place, "I'll tell you when we get home."

"Let's go!" No sooner had Eduard said that than Daphne pulled him toward the exit, making Eduard feel it funny. The two went to the parking lot and picked up the car. Instead of going straight back to the house, Eduard chose to go to Fragranerde Hall first, as he was going to tell the truth anyway, so he might as well take Kane and Juliana with him.

Just after 10 p.m., Eduard knocked on the door of Arthur's villa.
