She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 626

Chapter 626 Take a tumble

"She's still sleeping. Probably going to wake up soon," Lucia said, and Helena was already inside, watching the baby.

Glancing back at Helena's excited face, Lucia smiled. She didn't have to worry about taking care of the baby herself, so she turned to Reynolds and asked,

"Reynolds, are you okay?"

"In what way?" Reynolds retorted, with a hint of resignation.

Lucia looked into Reynolds' evasive eyes, reached for both hands, and confessed,

"Reynolds, the baby is my second child with Arthur. He's the love of my life. I know I'm probably the last person to tell you to get over it, but I want you to move on. You and Shawn are both my brothers. I hope you can be happy and there's a woman who can respond to your feelings. A good woman, you deserve it."

"You don't have to be ashamed of it," Reynolds said, unable to face Lucia's earnest gaze. He looked away, feeling the warmth of her hand holding his own,

"I'm the one who can't get over it."

"Reynolds!" Lucia may have been speechless, but she really couldn't stand to see Reynolds being decadent for her, so she raised her voice and called out to him,

"Will you stop running away? You know you can't do anything, so why don't you give up and look for another way out? If you're stubborn to the end, you can't see the good in others at all. How can you regenerate your feelings for others? In reality, the chance of falling in love with someone and getting the same response is already small. It's just like the embarrassment between you and me. I can't respond. Are you going to struggle with this for the rest of your life? Get back to your normal life, Reynolds. And accept the kindness of others. You'll be out of it in no time."

Reynolds looked at Lucia and didn't know what to say.

As one of the heirs of the Brown family and a talented person himself, he had many women who were attracted to him. However, he already had Lucia in his eyes, so how could he possibly look at anyone else?

"Reynolds, Lucia's right," Helena said to him, holding the baby beside them,

"Give someone else a chance. Give yourself a chance. Do you really want to see Lucia feel guilty for the rest of her life just because she can't fall in love with you?"

At this point, Helena had a feeling of helplessness. Didn't the hatred between her mother and Edwin start there?

Helena's words hit Reynolds like a wave, and he finally looked down at Lucia, who was staring into his own eyes. Indeed, there was guilt in there.

"Reynolds..." Lucia whispered to Reynolds.

"I see," Reynolds finally conceded. He may have inherited Esmae's stubbornness, but he was a little more compromised, a little more gentle than she was,

"Can I at least try?"

It was a big concession to get Reynolds to say that, and Lucia threw herself into his arms and said cheerfully,

"Reynolds, thank you."

When Lucia lunged into his arms, Reynolds was jolted by a jolt to the heart that instantly woke him up.

Lucia had been very careful with him ever since he had revealed his feelings for her. They had never held each other in such an open way, but at that moment, he suddenly realized that the only right relationship between him and Lucia was family.
