She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 713

Chapter 713 Leaving in dismay

"If you won't listen, go back and rest," Esmae said in a tone that sounded like a sigh.

"But..." how could Lucia go back like this.

"No buts. You're cruel, but I'm not!" Esmae finally grew impatient. The grievance in Lucia's eyes and her reluctance to let her go made Esmae very upset and helpless. She wanted her to be cruel and not let Lucia come back here, which was really impossible.

At these words, Lucia's tears fell.

"Go cry in your room." Esmae wouldn't comfort Lucia in front of Spencer.

"Thank you, Esmae..." Lucia said softly, sobbing. She got up and walked out of the study. She was grateful to Esmae, but she didn't show her true feelings in front of Spencer. It was only when she got back to her room that she let her tears fall down. But Lucia didn't know what Esmae said to Spencer after that.

The next day, there was no Esmae among those who saw Lucia off.

Spencer looked refreshed, and Lucia, whose eyes were visibly swollen, looked a little out of it.

"Lucia, are you all right? Why don't you change your ticket and take the day off," Helena said worriedly, holding Lucia's hand.

Esmae didn't come out to see her off, and everyone guessed what had happened last night.

"No..." said Lucia quietly. As she said goodbyes to Chris and the other people, she took the baby from the servant, and got into the car.

"Mr. Brown, Shawn, Reynolds, Helena, I'll see you next time. Take care." Spencer said goodbye to the Browns before getting into the car. He did not seem to care about their attitude toward him.

And after saying goodbye, he consciously got into another car, not to fight with Jack and the others.

Helena was very suspicious of his attitude. When Jack was about to get into the car, she whispered beside him, "Take care of Lucia and the baby. Don't let anything happen to them."

"I understand." Jack answered lightly, though the responsibility was heavy.

So, Lucia calmly left Brown Manor. Looking back at the gate as the car pulled away, she hoped to catch a glimpse of Esmae, but she was disappointed.

What Lucia didn't know was that Esmae was standing behind a second-story window, using the curtains to hide herself and watching the car leave. When they were gone, Esmae turned around, but didn't expect to see her husband standing next to her.

"If you can't give her up, why don't you go down and see her off?" Chris sighed.

"She disobeyed me and went against me for Arthur. Chris, what do you want me to do?" Esmae would look aggrieved in front of her husband.

"Lucia has her own standards of doing things. Esmae, sometimes you do interfere too much." Chris can't help but give Esmae a piece of advice, but she reacted violently.

"Do I have to watch her being together with Arthur?" said Esmae indignantly. "What about Helena? With Otis, too?! I will never forget my hatred, and I will never make peace with the Edwins!"
