She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 607

Chapter 607 Safe and sound

Douglas despised Bailey's bullying, but he had no choice but to carry Teddy, so he could only pay lip service. The two brothers got into an argument, and the lights shone down on them, making the two figures look like happy children.

Sophie looked lovingly at her troubled sons. She was pleased that Arthur had got what he wanted, and able to stand by Lucia's side today to welcome the little angel. Knowing that even though he still felt guilty about Teddy, there were no regrets.

Edwin, too, looked lovingly at his sons, but had made up his mind. He turned to Otis, who was most like him, and said,

"Otis, you are the closest to Arthur. You must protect your brother."

Without mentioning it, Edwin's fatherly love never went away.

"I know," Otis said, nodding. "Dad, you should have seen it, right?"

"You have expected much care," Edwin said as soon as he saw Jack and the others. Arthur raised his hand and patted Otis on the shoulder,

"And you, we the Davies, don't take our chances. We take what we want."

He said that to Arthur, too.

"Of course, Helena and I, we don't take orders," Otis said, as firmly as Arthur did.

"Don't worry. Chris is open-minded, and he'll talk Esmae out of it when the time comes," Edwin added.

Otis smiled, just then Jan came to the villa with the motorcade. Peter personally came to pick them up.

The departure of the Edwins did not ease the tension in the building, especially Lucia. After Arthur's departure, she looked down at her daughter, and her quiet sleeping face. Her heart was filled with happiness.

Spencer wouldn't be stupid enough to bother her at a time like this, and he'd have to face the blame from Helena.

Otis was gone, and Esmae no longer held her daughter's hand or controlled her temper.

"Spencer, you did great!" Helena sneered, and said sarcastically, "As Lucia's fiancé, you left regardless of her physical condition, yet you still sent someone to guard the building nearby. Why? Does it feel good to be a tattletale?"

"Miss Brown, you're wrong about me," Spencer explained unhurriedly,

"You know why I had to have someone outside the building," he said. "If you hadn't let the Edwins in, they wouldn't have gotten so close to Lucia. Besides, I respect Ms. Wilson, who knows her history with the Edwins. Seeing you with Otis, I couldn't keep my mouth shut."

"Blame someone else for your own irresponsibility?" Helena retorted,

"If you cared enough about Lucia to impress her and not betray her, would she live in the building by herself? If you're gonna be there for her all the time, taking care of her, uncle and aunt, even the whole family, do they need to come back and be with her? Before you blame someone, think about who you are."

Helena had always been forthright and spoke without regard for Spencer's feelings.

Spencer's face darkened when he heard that. He knew that Helena had a sharp tongue. He could let her say whatever she wanted if no one else was around, but she was "slandering" himself in front of Esmae. Spencer was afraid that her comments would influence Esmae's view of himself.
