Chapter 199
"Lucy, eat a piece of chicken!" Kylah had already picked up a piece of chicken for Lucy. She then took out her bag and took out five hundred dollars. "If you don't have enough in the future, then order some takeout."
The people here were not interested in 500 dollars.
But she didn't really want to pay, she just wanted to disgust Mr. Johnson!
Lucy took it seriously and said, "Thank you for your reward. If you don't spend enough money, can I still ask you for it?"
Arthur's brows were tightly furrowed, and his body was giving off a cold air. When had he ever compared her with his food and drinks?
"I'll take care of your expenses!" Kylah threw out a sentence in a very domineering manner, glancing at Arthur with a provocative look.
Seeing that his Arthur's face was getting more and more ugly, Chad quickly said, "Sister-in-law is running the company. How can she care about your 500 dollars? Hurry up and put away the money. Don't disgrace yourself!"
As he spoke, he was about to snatch the 500 dollars in Lucy's hands.
"That was in the past." Lucy put the 500 dollars into his pocket and mocked himself. "Right now, I'm a poor man. I can't even afford to eat a double meal in the cinema."
She glanced at Arthur. "As for the company, it belongs to your Arthur. It has nothing to do with me. Didn't he tell you?"
The result of five years was nothing more than a sentence from Arthur.
She thought that she didn't care, but how could she not care?
Arthur also looked at her. His eyes were deep and unfathomable. He put down the tableware and went upstairs to change into a shirt. Without saying anything, he went straight out of the door.
"Or don't do such a shameful thing, or don't be afraid of people saying it. If you do such a shameful thing, you are afraid of people saying it. Isn't it just that you want to set up a memorial arch after becoming a prostitute?" However, she had never told her about it. It was really infuriating! Mr. Johnson was more shameless than she thought!
Lucy watched Arthur's figure disappear at the door, and he was no longer in the mood to eat.
She hadn't been working for a long time. She didn't know if she would get used to it after she got divorced and went to work. She didn't know what she should do if Arthur didn't allow her to see the child.
Chad was stunned for a long time before he pointed at them bitterly. "You... Hey, what are you doing!"
What his sister-in-law said was too heart-wrenching!
The most important thing was that his wife was still helping him!
"What's wrong with us?" Kylah placed her hands on her hips. "Arthur is the only one who bullies Lucy. You don't allow me to apologize to him? Chad, let me tell you something. If it weren't for the fear of the Johnson family, I would have definitely found someone to beat him up!"
Maybe she could try to hit him with a sack, so that her identity would not be discovered!

"You're making trouble!" Chad had a headache. How could he fall in love with such a stupid woman?
Kylah was already tugging at his ear. "Who do you think's causing trouble? Chad, you're getting bolder!"
"Let go of me!" Since she didn't let go of him, Chad had no choice but to say to Lucy awkwardly, "Sister-in-law, you really wronged Arthur this time. He did a good job in your company, but he didn't take it for nothing!"
Lucy's heart skipped a beat.
Chad continued, "To tell you the truth, how much can your small company be worth? Why does Arthur care about that? He took over a small run-down company and gave you one percent of the shares of the Johnson family. No matter what, you made a profit!"
"!" Lucy's elbow swept over the bowls and chopsticks on the table. The bowls and chopsticks fell to the ground with a crash.
The Johnson family's conservative value was estimated to be close to a thousand dollars. One percent of the shares was more than one billion dollars. To be able to buy hundreds of small companies, she even thought that he was greedy for her!
"Sister-in-law, what you said just now was too heart-wrenching!" Arthur did good deeds and was scolded. He was sad for Arthur!
Kylah was already dumbfounded. "Chad, I might have lost my sense of hearing for the time being. What did you say just now?"
"You didn't hear wrongly. It's one percent of the shares of the Johnson family!" Chad said to her ear.
Lucy's mind was in a mess. Why didn't Arthur tell her that it was such a big deal to transfer one percent of the shares?
Besides, he was going to divorce her, wasn't he? Since he was going to divorce her, why did he transfer so many shares to her? Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"No, there are other things that Elyse told me about the divorce. Arthur said that she would be the only Mrs. Johnson."
Could it be that she had always misunderstood Arthur?
But if Arthur didn't like Elyse, what was wrong with those bed photos? Maddox had framed her. Could it be that Elyse had framed Arthur?
That's impossible. Arthur was indeed in Elyse's room at night, and the bed had been ringing all the
time. There was even a woman's scream!
Chaos.
His mind was in a mess.
It seemed that many things were contradictory.
"Even if I misunderstood Mr. Johnson in the company, what did he say about Elyse?" Kylah had already come to her senses. "Mr. Johnson is married, but he asked his ex-girlfriend to stay in Lindbarry Chateau. Isn't that disgusting?"
"Other than the parties involved in the relationship, no one else can explain it clearly. Don't worry about it. Let's go, let's leave some private space for sister-in-law and let her think about it herself." Chad had already pushed Kylah out. They could only cause more trouble here!
Kylah turned around and shouted, "But if Mr. Johnson bullies you, just tell me and I'll beat him for you!"
There was no response.
Lucy sat on the chair in a daze. His mind was filled with what had happened recently. It seemed that ever since Elyse had appeared, her relationship with Arthur had been getting worse and worse.
Was Arthur still in love with Elyse? Or was Elyse lying?
"You guys go over and clean up the floor in a low voice. Don't hurt Madam." Aunty Julianne whispered to a few maids.
The maids answered in a low voice. They cleaned the floor quietly, cleaned up the table, and left.
Aunty Julianne sighed and followed him out. Just like what Mr. Shaffer had said, love was something that others could not explain clearly. She had better think about it on her own!
...
Lucy sat there for more than two hours. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He didn't have any clue at all.
Unless she asked Arthur, the person involved, she could not guess what he was thinking!
She took out her mobile phone and dialed his number. She called him three times in a row before answering the call. His voice was very cold. "What's the matter?"
"I have something I want to talk to you about." Before she fell in love, Lucy had always hated TV series and the twisted male and female leads in novels. But when it was her turn, she found that she was also a roundabout person.
"This time, let's get to the bottom of it in person. It's better than thinking about it alone!"
Arthur's soft breathing came from the other end of the phone. After a long while, he did not answer and hung up directly.
When Lucy called again, he already couldn't get through.
He must be angry.
If it were her, she would be angry when she did something good and was misunderstood.
Lucy returned to her room, put on a jacket, and went downstairs. Even if there were bodyguards watching over her, she still had to rush out and ask Arthur about it!
