Chapter 746 Confessions

But just when everyone thought there would be no answer to the question other than embarrassment, Lucia spoke up,

"Arthur, since he is curious, it doesn't hurt to tell him. Besides, Mr. Wood must have heard a lot of rumors when he asked."

After she finished speaking, Lucia glanced at Nia, and Nia immediately found it difficult to breathe and unconsciously avoided Lucia's gaze.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry, but I heard a lot of people talking about you, and Nia's involved, so I..."

"Casper, what are you talking about?" Nia interrupted Jacob with a frown on her face.

"Ms. Davidson, it's okay. Mr. Wood cares about you so much, and Arthur and I do have a responsibility to explain it to him," Lucia said matter-of-factly, but the sparkle in her bright eyes was so sharp that she looked back at Jacob.

"Mr. Wood, the press is right. Spencer and I have a falling out, and I want to get back together with Arthur, so he's the first person I go to when I got hurt. But my relationship with them has nothing to do with Ms. Davidson. The media just likes to poke holes in things. You can rest assured."

"I see," said Jacob. Lucia's answer was very succinct, but Jacob wasn't stupid enough to ask further. He smiled and said,

"Ms. Webb, you're really bold and generous. Even your attitude toward pursuing happiness is so generous that you don't mind what the outside world says."

"Of course," Lucia said simply, "What I like, I will fight for. What I don't like, I will never go deep."

Lucia's words didn't sound strange, as if she was just expressing her own thoughts, but Arthur's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard those words. He was deep in thought.

Jacob nodded in approval of Lucia's words, and Nia, seeing that the conversation was over and that she was afraid he would do something again, quickly got up and said good-bye.

"Mr. Davies, Ms. Webb, I have an important meeting to attend, so I'll leave you to it. Ms. Webb, I hope you get well soon."

"Thank you," said Lucia politely.

After Nia and Jacob left, Arthur took the baby from Lucia's arms back to the crib and sat on the edge of the bed staring at her.

"What's wrong?" Lucia asked him, smiling.

"Casper came to you in private?" Arthur was sensitive to anything that happened to Lucia.

"Yes," replied Lucia, frankly. She would not keep it a secret from him, after all they had been through last night.

"I ran into him once before."

"Did he make a pass at you?" Arthur asked affirmatively.

"A little." Lucia's smile deepened. For a long time, she had not felt Arthur's jealousy so directly.

"Isn't that funny?" Arthur asked as he suddenly put his hand on Lucia's cheek.

"Yeah." Lucia didn't deny it, but she moved her face closer to Arthur's palm. His palm was warm and comfortable. Squinting like a kitten, Lucia smiled,

"I haven't seen you being jealous in a long time."

Arthur didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that, but Lucia laughed so... yummily. He suddenly leaned over and kissed her lips gently. Looking at her smiling eyes, he said helplessly,

"Don't tease me."
