She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 421

At noon, with Prospect Focus Magazine, Eduard angrily went to the Branch of Davonnis to "complain" to Arthur.

"Arthur, Look what Spencer did!" Eduard gritted his teeth as he tossed the magazine on Arthur's desk.

"I know everything," Arthur said, glancing at the magazine.

"How can you be so calm when you know it?" Eduard raised his eyebrows. He thought Arthur didn't know.

"Clowns," Arthur said quietly, keeping his head down. "It's just Spencer's money. He can write whatever he wants."

"You're just going to let Prospect Focus Magazine get away with it?" Eduard said indignantly.

"Of course not. It's just that there's no shortage of greedy people in the world. Without Prospect Focus Magazine, Spencer would have found someone else to publicize this matter. Let Prospect Focus Magazine be the first to take the lead. Moreover, this matter has been spreading all over the city. Without the magazine, the discussion would not have stopped." A gleam of light flashed in Arthur's eyes. A single sentence had defined the miserable future of Prospect Focus Magazine.

"I think we should take care of him now and can't make Spencer laugh!" Eduard was not as rational as Arthur.

"My focus isn't on Spencer... it's..." Arthur put down his work and turned his chair towards the window. He didn't want Eduard to see his expression.

"What is it?" Eduard asked, looking in Arthur's direction.

"Spencer's engagement day is the 30th, the day after tomorrow, so she should be back tomorrow..." Arthur's voice was as flat as a glass of water. Those who understood him knew that the glass of water was boiling.

Eduard clenched his fists, and was furious at his inability to help. Was there really nothing he could do to help?!

"Arthur, would you like me to ask Lucia out to talk?" Eduard suggested, after a moment's contemplation.

"We can't figure out what the problem is. Even if you could ask her out, what would be the point?"

Arthur slowly turned back to his chair, and Eduard finally saw his expression. There was an aura of gloom that could not be dispersed between Arthur's brows. His gaze lowered, and when he looked back, all he could see was endless bitterness.

It may take words like heartache to describe Arthur's state of mind.

"Aren't we supposed to believe in Lucia? Even if it's the last thing we do?" Eduard, a man who felt Arthur's plight, said encouragingly.

"Eduard, I'm afraid," Arthur said as he looked up.

"Huh?" Eduard didn't realize what he said. Arthur said he was afraid? Of what?

"The last time I saw Lucia, do you you know what she said to me? She said that if it weren't for Teddy's illness, she would have gotten engaged to Spencer on May 5, and wouldn't have had to deal with me as her ‘enemy'. Every word she said was like a knife to my heart. ..."
