She Is A CEO

Chapter 115 A Conspiracy



The next day, Spencer came to the villa of Fragranerde Hall while Arthur was in the company. He knocked on the door and got in because he was Arthur's cousin.

Of course, Peter couldn't refuse to open the door when Spencer came to the house, but after he let Spencer in, he intentionally led Spencer to the living room to sit down and politely said, "Master Spencer, Master Arthur is not at home now. I will call him immediately to say that you are here."

"Don't bother," said Spencer, sitting on the sofa and waving at will, "I just came by to see him. Just forget it if he is not here."

When Peter heard this, he thought Spencer was leaving. He was relieved when he heard Spencer say,

"Is Julia here?"

Peter's heart thumped. Spencer mentioned Juliana. That was what he was afraid of.

Spencer smiled when he saw that Peter didn't respond. He had expected it, so he stood up and said, "Julia and I are childhood friends. Since both of us returned home, we should meet. Is she upstairs now?" After saying that, Spencer wanted to go upstairs, but he was stopped by Peter after taking a few steps.

"Master Spencer, Miss Knight is resting now, so she's unavailable."

When Peter stopped, Spencer was surer something had happened to Juliana, so he looked at Peter coldly and asked, "Can't I meet old friends?"

Peter was sweating and didn't know what to do at the moment. When they were in a stalemate, a voice came from the stairway on the second floor.

"Peter, go and make two cups of coffee."

The person who spoke was Juliana.

Peter looked at Juliana in embarrassment and turned to do as she told.

Spencer put on a smile and looked at Juliana who was slowly coming downstairs. He said, "Julia, I haven't seen you for a long time" while his eyes were watching her intently.

Juliana was haggard, or precisely, emaciated.

"Spencer, it's been a long time." Juliana came to the living room and answered politely. If she hadn't just heard Spencer was trying to trouble Peter, she wouldn't have come downstairs anyway.

"Julia, why are you so haggard?" Spencer let Juliana sit on the sofa and asked straightforwardly.

Spencer didn't care if his words would make Juliana uncomfortable. He irritated her on purpose.

"I haven't had a good rest recently." Juliana sat down and made a perfunctory remark. At this time, Peter brought her coffee. When he left, he gave Juliana a worried look. Juliana gave him a wry smile, which was captured by Spencer.

"Julia, we are childhood friends. Although we don't spend much time together, I regard you as my sister. If there is anything, you can tell me."

Juliana didn't appreciate Spencer's kindness. She knew what kind of men Erik and Spencer were. Though she and Spencer knew each other, Spencer never showed his concerns for her before. It was weird that he suddenly did so today.

So Juliana smiled and replied, "Spencer, what can happen to me when Arthur takes care of me? It's really just that I haven't had a good rest recently."

Now that Juliana refused to tell him the truth, Spencer would not force her, but smiled, "Yes, some people have jet lag for a long time, and you should have a good rest."

Juliana frowned and nodded. Then there was an awkward silence. They were drinking coffee and seemed to have nothing to say, but Spencer soon broke the silence again, "Julia, you are not too young. Have you dated someone?"

Spencer started this topic without thinking. Juliana had a good career, and her family was rich. The only thing that could make her so haggard must be relationship problems, and she must have been greatly hurt.

Hearing his question, Juliana changed color. She dropped her eyes and shook her head. Now she didn't want to talk about it at all.

Juliana's indifference did not affect Spencer at all. He continued, "See, Arthur has a girlfriend and even a son. But I always think it's strange when I hear about the relationship between him and Lucia from Arthur's parents. Are they really bound by fate?"

"Do you think so?" This was the first time Juliana gave Spencer an approving look because he thought the same as her.

Spencer captured the change in Juliana's expression, got delighted with himself, and said, "Yes, the drama between them is common in soap operas, but it seems strange in the real world.

"I think this is a conspiracy!" Juliana's eyes became very firm. She finally found a person with the same feeling as her, and unconsciously revealed her mind.

"There is no such coincidence in the world. Five years ago they had a baby because of a one-night stand. Five years later, Lucia took the baby back to Athegate and ran into Arthur. This was not a coincidence at all. It was plotted by Lucia in advance!"

"I feel the same way," Spencer nodded in agreement, then shook his head and said, "But Arthur's parents were very happy when they saw their grandson. Arthur loved Lucia very much, and nobody thought about the plot."

"Lucia won't make it!" Juliana said ruthlessly and firmly.

"Not really. When I met Arthur that day, I mentioned Lucia. I don't know what happened between them. Arthur seems very reluctant to mention her, but he still loves Lucia very much." Spencer secretly set a trap.

Juliana immediately pursed her lips and said after thinking for a while,

"Arthur is fooled by Lucia. She uses Arthur to deal with Jacob, hooks up with Eduard, and even wants to rekindle her old relationship with Jacob. Such a slut will never obtain all her wishes! I won't let her get what she wants while I am around!"

"What can you do?" Spencer asked immediately.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Juliana did not respond, but replied tactfully, "I will not sit back."

"Arthur is blessed to have friends like you." Spencer didn't continue to ask.

At least, now he knew that Juliana's purpose was the same as his. It was very beneficial for him to have a straightforward person like Juliana standing between Arthur and Lucia. What was more, Juliana helped Poppy to frame Lucia.

At this point, there was no need to say more about it. After they had some small talk for a while, Spencer got up and said goodbye. In the evening, Arthur heard about it when he returned home and knew that Juliana had met him.

"Julia, what did Spencer talk to you about today?" Arthur was worried that Spencer would find out something. After all, Juliana was very vulnerable to stimulation now.

Leaning beside Arthur, Juliana said lightly, "It's OK. We just talk. He came to see you when I happened to go downstairs."
