She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 556

That night, Spencer, who had been drinking a lot, barged into the building.

As soon as Spencer stepped into the building, Victor alerted Lucia, but Lucia didn't flinch. She motioned for them to stay put and went to the living room to "fight" Spencer who was drunk.

"Lucia!" Spencer called to Lucia, looking at her.

Lucia glanced at Spencer, then casually walked over to the sofa and sat down to see what Spencer was going to do.

"Lucia, you're such a disaster!" Spencer began to grumble under the influence of alcohol. He staggered over to Lucia, looked down at her and said,

"Nothing good has happened to me since I got engaged to you! It's all your fault!"

Lucia smiled and said coldly, "This is completely different from your engagement vows. Didn't you say that being engaged to me was the happiest thing?"

"I was wrong! I regret it!" Spencer yelled. "If I had known it, I would have traded Theodore's life for Davies Group's assets. At least I would have had the fortune. With you, you just turn against me. I gave you my heart. Is this how you repay me?!"

Spencer's movements were huge. He waved and shifted, and Lucia watched his every move defensively, saying,

"What heart did you give me? Was it scheming, or cruel?"

"It's true!" Spencer leaned over to Lucia, and just when Lucia thought he was going to bump into her and she already raised her hands, Spencer shook back and sighed,

"Why can't you just accept me?"

"Because your heart is mingled with fame, desire, hatred, jealousy, which is both dirty nor disgusting," Lucia said mercilessly.

Spencer glared at Lucia, took a few steps back, and sat down on the corner sofa with a thud. He looked at Lucia with his red eyes, as if she had said something ridiculous.

"Is that what you came here to tell me?" Lucia's patience was wearing thin.

"Of course not," said Spencer, who seemed calmer as he sat down. "I need you to help me regain Esmae's trust. There's something going on at headquarters and I need her help."

"Impossible," Lucia refused flatly.

"Even if it's impossible, I have to do it!" Spencer shouted. "All of this started because of you. If you hadn't suddenly appeared in front of me, I wouldn't have fallen in love with you. I would have pursued fame and fortune with all my heart. Arthur might have been my defeated opponent long ago. It's all because of you that you blocked my path!"

Lucia found it absurd and laughable that Spencer should blame her for his failure, that he should have the confidence to think that he could defeat Arthur.

"You think you're better than Arthur?" Lucia chuckled, not hiding the contempt in her voice.

Lucia's words hit the nail on the head for Spencer.

Spencer's face turned hideous. He glared at Lucia and said,

"I know that I'm nothing to you, but at the end, there are still interests between us. If you're unkind, I can be unrighteous too. If you don't help me settle Esmae, I'll tell Arthur about the child and let him know that not only his woman, but also his child is mine!"

"Just tell him." Lucia wouldn't be threatened again, because she knew Spencer wouldn't dare! The more he wanted, the more he thought, and Spencer's caution had long since turned into trepidation.
