She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 698

Chapter 698 Rejected from the door

Lucia looked at Sophie gratefully and asked the others if they had had breakfast. Everyone else said no, and they would eat later. Arthur led Lucia and Theodore into the dining room. Spencer got up and followed them.

"I'm coming, too," said Bailey, who got up to follow Spencer but was stopped by Otis.

"Don't go there. Lucia needs time to get used to it," Otis said.

"Get used to what?" Bailey frowned deeply.

Otis said nothing.

What else can she get used to? Get used to the fact that Arthur wasn't there for her anymore, that Spencer was!?

Bailey understood what Otis meant, but still looked indignantly in the direction of the dinning room.

In the dining room, Spencer was not greeted, but the servants politely served him breakfast when he sat down. Spencer sat across from Lucia. He did not touch any food but looked at Lucia and Arthur coldly, and their son for breakfast.

After about ten minutes, Spencer said, "Arthur, it's time to give me back my woman."

Lucia and Arthur frowned. Arthur didn't hesitate but turned to Theodore. "Teddy, go back to the living room," he said

Theodore was so clever that he slipped out of his chair and made his way back to the living room. After Theodore had left, Arthur turned to look at Spencer, and his words were indifferent.

"Spencer, don't talk big. It won't do you any good to be so cocky."

"Talk big?" Spencer sneered, and his eyes fixed on Lucia who was silent.

"You're the one who is cocky, aren't you? For the past two days, you've been occupying Lucia because it's your territory. I'll tolerate it, but she'll be leaving with me soon. Arthur, I'm the one who can accompany Lucia into the Brown Manor, not you!"

Spencer was venting his pent-up emotions for the past two days. He couldn't care less how ridiculous his words sounded to Lucia and Arthur.

Arthur smiled but did not reply. He turned to Lucia and told her gently,

"Lucia, be careful."

"Don't worry. They'll protect me and the baby from harassment," she said softly, glancing at Spencer as she spoke.

Seeing the natural chemistry in Lucia's and Arthur's eyes, Spencer felt as if something had given him a good scratch, and he was on fire.

Lucia glanced over at Spencer's dispossessed face and continued eating her breakfast.

Arthur ignored Spencer even more. After eating with Lucia, he led her up and left. Spencer tried his best to suppress his urge to sweep the food on the table onto the floor.

His provocations had always been self-defeating in the face of Lucia and Arthur.

With the departure imminent, Lucia kissed and hugged Theodore, and after some careful exhortation, she got into the car. Just as Spencer was about to get into the car, Victor beat her to the punch.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Davies, but I'm going to stay with her."

Victor sat next to Lucia and grinned at Spencer. Spencer gritted his teeth. Knowing that the Edwins were watching him, he could only clench his fists and get into the second car.
