She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 781

Chapter 781 Suddenly enlightened

Born with a super-high IQ, Arthur had always been dismissive of superheroes when everyone else was worshipping them, but now, he really wished he had that kind of omnipotence, to find Lucia and their daughter immediately.

Arthur, lost in his troubled thoughts, did not even hear the doorbell ring until a soft voice called his name.

"Arthur, still no word from Lucia and the baby?"

That was his mother's voice!

Arthur jerked his head back and saw his gentle mother standing behind him. He had mixed feelings when he saw the worry in her eyes.

As soon as she entered the room, she saw Arthur who was in a daze and staring at the coffee table.

"Mom, what are you doing here?" Arthur had no idea Sophie was going home, but when he saw the look on Peter's face next to his mother, he understood.

"Mr. Davies, I'm sorry. I informed Madame on my own initiative." Peter apologized, but he had no regrets.

"I don't blame you," Arthur said, rising to his feet. He understood Peter's intentions. He went to his mother, who looked tired.

"Mom, I'm sorry I worried you..."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Sophie asked as she raised her hand to caress Arthur's cheek.

Arthur frowned and looked at Sophie silently.

Sophie's heart ached. She caressed Arthur's face again before asking, "Where's Otis?"

"Otis is upstairs taking care of his comrades," Arthur said, knowing that he would have to come clean sooner or later. He told her about the injuries to Jack and the others, and then said,

"He'll be down in a minute."

"They're hurt?!" Sophie was shocked. She had been hoping that Spencer would just use the excuse to make things difficult for Lucia, but she didn't expect him to actually hurt them. It seemed that the matter was much more serious than she had imagined!

"Take me to see them." Sophie helped Arthur up the stairs to the room where Jack and the others were resting. She greeted them and assured them that they were fine before she relaxed.

"Otis, Arthur, I want you to come downstairs with me. I want to know all the details," Sophie said to her two sons after the greeting.

Otis and Arthur looked at each other, and they obediently followed their mother downstairs. The three of them sat on the sofa together. Sophie went through the whole thing in detail. Of course, she knew that Esmae and Chris were at Athegate at this time.

"I wonder how Esmae feels now..." Sophie was not trying to cover up the fact that Esmae was the main reason Lucia and the baby were in danger.

"What else could she think," said Otis, who could no longer hold back in her mother's presence.
