Chapter 638 A Speaking Acquaintance

"Edwin," said Lucia apologetically to Edwin, seeing the stream of visitors. "I'm sorry to have disturbed you."

"It's okay," Edwin said with a smile while waving his hand. "I haven't been the country in a long time. It's a good thing that people are able to come forward and talk to me under uncertain circumstances. It means Arthur and his colleagues are doing a very good job with Davonnis."

The guilt in Lucia's heart was deepened by Edwin's words. How could she not know that Edwin and Sophie were both people who liked to keep a low profile, and that they would not be happy to be disturbed like this. They just bore with it because of her

"Lucia... we're all very happy to see the baby today." Knowing what Lucia was thinking, Sophie was patting her hand.

Lucia smiled again when she heard this, and Theodore kept comforting her, so she was not so upset.

On the other hand, after realizing that everyone was starting to pay attention to Edwin and Sophie, Spencer couldn't stop them, so he became even more upset and returned to the main table with the glass of wine in hand. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but complain to Esmae,

"I was against Lucia bringing Teddy here in the first place, and now, Ms. Wilson, it's like Edwin and Sophie are in charge."

Esmae pursed her lips. She had seen everything that was going on at Edwin's table. Originally, she had become unhappy. Being provoked by Spencer, she was even more upset, but she didn't show it. Instead, she said to Spencer,

"Lucia has the right to make the decision. You have promised, so don't go back on your word."

Frustrated, Spencer continued to complain,

"Ms. Wilson, don't you think you're being too accommodating to Lucia? Today is the christening of me and her daughter, but she and her ex's son are there. Even Arthur showed up uninvited. I tried my best to stop her from doing what she wanted to do, but you're still taking her side."

"She's my daughter!" Esmae raised an eyebrow and said unhappily, "Who am I going to side with if not her?!"

Spencer was at a loss for words, and when he saw that Esmae was angry, he felt suffocated, too. And the pent-up feelings he had been feeling for so long spilled out,

"Ms. Wilson, you have a double standard. Since you're favoring her, why did you use me to break off her relationship with Arthur in the first place? Now you're forcing me to accommodate her in everything? It's fine if it's reasonable, but look at what's happening. We're the hosts being left out in the cold, yet she's staying with Edwin and Sophie. Even her daughter is being taken care of by Helena. Have you ever thought about how much she cares about you!?"

"Enough!" Esmae, who knew Spencer would grow bitter because he could never win Lucia's heart, said in a cold voice,

"Don't blame others if you don't have the ability to shock the guests. Lucia's request is reasonable. You don't like Teddy, but he's Lucia's biological son and my grandson!"

Seeing that Esmae was really angry, Spencer didn't dare continue to refute. In terms of Esmae's temper, if she really held a grudge against him, it was really irreparable.

"Ms. Wilson... Don't get mad. I'm just complaining because I feel bad..." Spencer quickly relented.

Esmae glared at Spencer and looked angrily at Edwin's table. She knew that Lucia, who was by their side, would be laughing and happy. After nearly a year of going head-to-head with her over Arthur, Esmae couldn't help but recall Spencer's words. Had Lucia really cared about her?

Anger bred suspicion.

Chris was fine, but he had heard everything Esmae and Spencer had just said. He knew his wife's temper, and he knew that Lucia was going to make her angry, so he stood up and said to Esmae,
