She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Once Again Disappointed

But Lucia frowned. Her beautiful eyes were full of embarrassment. What should she do to Esmae?

After a moment's hesitation, Lucia took out her cell phone and called Esmae directly. This time, wasn't she willing to back off?

"Esmae, you haven't rested yet, have you?" When the call went through, Lucia greeted Esmae first.

Esmae didn't answer. She seemed to know why Lucia was calling her.

"Esmae... can't I leave now?"

Esmae's silence suggested that she knew about Spencer's arrest, but it also disappointed her. Lucia asked her slowly.

Time seemed to stand still, and if it hadn't been for Esmae's breathing on the phone, Lucia would have thought she had hung up.

A long time later, Esmae whispered, "Just wait..."

"Esmae, what are you waiting for?"

Esmae answered calmly. Lucia was in a hurry. Now that Spencer was in jail and Dan had been recalled, she could find a way to find him. She desperately wanted to return to Arthur's side. She'd had enough of separation.

"Spencer's been arrested for rape, and everyone knows! Do you want me to have a relationship with a man like that?"

There was another silence. Esmae's slowness was in sharp contrast to Lucia's quickness.

"So..." Esmae finally said again. "Once I promise you, you'll run back to Arthur, won't you?"

This time it was Lucia's turn to be silent.

Frowning slightly, Lucia's answer never changed.

"I've seen Spencer's character very clearly. He's not someone that you can commit to for life. I can agree to break off the engagement between the two of you..."

As soon as Esmae said this, Lucia's eyes lit up. She called out her name happily, but Esmae's next words sent her back to hell.

"But you're going to marry Reynolds." Esmae's voice was unmistakable.

"What?!" Lucia's heart skipped a beat, and her voice was losing its original softness.

"You heard me right. I want you to marry Reynolds, and Reynolds loves you. You may not love him, but he's willing to embrace everything, even the daughter you gave birth to with Arthur. I know my son. He will never hurt you in his life, and..."

"Esmae!" Interrupted Lucia, who snapped, "You know it's not going to happen between me and Reynolds!"

"Then wait!" Esmae's voice was sharper than Lucia's.

"How long do I have to wait?" Lucia's heart began to ache.

"Wait until you give up on Arthur!" Esmae said without any hesitation. She hung up the phone.

Give up on Arthur?
