She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 473

"I'm full." Putting down the fork, Lucia stood up and left the room. Spencer didn't stop her, but looked at her back with complex look.

Back in her room, Lucia breathed a sigh of relief. She needed to guard herself against Spencer. Although she lived here now, this was not her "home". She didn't feel the warmth of home.

Locking the door from the inside, Lucia went to the bedside and sat down. She took out a small plastic bag from her bag and put it on the nightstand.

Staring at the bag for a long time, Lucia asked herself in the heart.

Do you want to test it?

Lucia's heart was pounding.

Lucia had been busy since she got back from Miami, so she didn't notice that her period had come a few days late, which had always been on time before. Until today when she saw that Daphne was having cramps, only then did she realize that her period had been delayed.

Thinking of that night when she had sex with Arthur, Lucia felt sweet in her heart. Although she was in prison, she would be so happy if she could have Arthur's child again.

But Lucia was also worried about how Spencer would react if she became pregnant!

Finally, Lucia opened the plastic bag and took out the pregnancy test. She took a deep breath and went into the bathroom.

As night fell, Nia walked down the street alone. Her brows furrowed and she cared nothing as the people around her kept on frolicking.

Today, she was reprimanded twice by Lucia, both times for forgetting to submit important documents. And this had been a regular occurrence for nearly a week now. Nia's mind was no longer focused on her work.

She'd been very upset all week, and puzzled by Lucia's conversation with Kane, but she was afraid to go to Reynolds and ask him about it. And she was more afraid of falling into a lie.

For some reason, Nia was afraid to contact Reynolds, and Reynolds wasn't looking for her, which made Nia's mood even worse.

Normally, she would go home after work to have sex with Reynolds, but now that he was not home, Nia was just wandering on the street.

As she walked, Nia found herself in the downtown. The street lights were brighter than the stars, and she raised her hand to block the glare from the huge billboard in front of her. She also saw a familiar car parked in a parking space on the side of the road.

Winking uncomfortably, Nia thought. Wasn't this Reynolds' car?

To make sure, Nia sidled up to Reynolds' car and realized that it was indeed his car, but there was no one in it.

Nia turned around and looked around. A few seconds later, she was walking towards a high-end restaurant. She remembered Reynolds' every favorite western restaurant that he frequented.

After going up to the building and coming to the restaurant's door, Nia purposely tidied up her appearance and then walked into the restaurant with her chin held high.

Since Reynolds had brought her in a couple of times, Nia walked right up to the front desk and asked where was Lennie's reservation. The receptionist had served Reynolds several times, and remembered Nia, who was with him, so he gave her Reynolds' table number unsuspectingly.

Nia found out about this and began to move cautiously towards Reynolds. Her heart was pounding and her palms were sweating. Finally, she saw Reynolds, and naturally, she saw Monty sitting across from him.
