She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 534

Lucia's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously turned to look at Arthur, but when she saw him staring at her, she quickly turned around and scolded herself for being so excited!

"Really?" Lucia could only deflect her attention with words. "It seems that the outside reports are not credible."

"Are you reading all my reports?" Arthur's eyes were still fixed on Lucia, and he asked a straightforward question.

When Lucia heard this, she knew it was not good. The atmosphere between them was too ambiguous for her to be cruel.

After all, this was not the time for candor.

Thinking this, Lucia turned to Arthur. This time, her eyes were not soft. She said,

"Mr. Davies, this conversation isn't going to happen between us again, is it?"

Arthur smiled wryly and asked her, "Even if it is for hate, you are concerned about my information?"

He did not expect her to pay attention to him because she loved him.

It was a self-deprecating joke in Arthur's heart.

Lucia had started the conversation herself, but now she didn't know how to end it, so she just pursed her lips and didn't answer.

Arthur sighed and then asked,

"Are you all right? Are you still throwing up so much?"

"It's long past the initial stage of discomfort. Now, it's just eating..." Lucia blushed as soon as she finished speaking. Arthur was still holding an empty plate in his hand.

Seeing that Lucia's ears were as red as before, Arthur's heart was still filled with gentleness. No matter how much Lucia hurt him, he would move toward her like a moth.

Thus, Lucia and Arthur conversed sporadically. Both of them knew that it was awkward, but they didn't want to end the rare chance to spend time together. Even though the topic was so boring that it turned into the weather, they were still standing beside each other.

Not far away, Eduard and his four friends looked at them and sighed.

If there were not so many twists and turns, how enviable a couple they could be.

Leaning against Eduard, Daphne said in a hoarse voice, "If only Lucia and Arthur were still together..."

Eduard looked down and saw that Daphne's eyes were red. He had known she was sentimental, but he hadn't expected her to be so sensitive. He pinched her arm to comfort her,

"Descendants will have their own fortune and happiness so parents should not worry for and toil for them..."

Juliana and Kane stared at him. "Who are you calling descendants ?" Juliana asked

"There are no proper adjectives, are there?" Eduard said with a shrug and was relieved to see Daphne burst out laughing at his words.

"There aren't a lot of us who think the same way. I'm afraid..." Kane smiled and said helplessly when he saw the people around him whispering.

It was not just Eduard and the others who'd been following Lucia and Arthur. It was no exaggeration to say that almost everyone in the room was curious about their troubled relationship, and most of them had a mix feeling of schadenfreude and ridicule.
