She Is A CEO

Arthur nodded and didn't doubt anything, but he was puzzled, "Spencer knows that you have returned home?"

"I don't know how he knew." Juliana shook his head.

Arthur had some doubts, but he didn't take it further since Juliana was fine.

He had more important things to discuss with her, so he said, "The new year vacation is coming. This year, our family plans to go back home to pay respects to our ancestors. Julia, do you want to go home?" Arthur asked carefully.

The new year festival was a time when people must get together every year, but the family reunion this year meant differently to Juliana.

Juliana's eyes dimmed in an instant and she said nothing.

She did not know how to face her parents with such a dirty body.

"Julia, you have to go home sooner or later..." Arthur knew that Juliana was in trouble, but the new year festival was too special, and she would have to go home. The mention of this was to get her mentally prepared.

"I know..." Juliana's voice was choked when she answered, and she continued with tears in her eyes, "But how can I go back like this?"

"Or... wait for me for a few days. After I visited the graves of my ancestors in my hometown. I'll go home with you to see your parents." Arthur told the plan he had long thought about.

"My parents will be suspicious. We usually celebrate the new year festival separately. You suddenly go to my house with me this year... How can it make sense?" Juliana frowned and said.

Arthur sighed. It was strange for him to go home with Juliana at the new year festival when he should gather with his family. Moreover, Juliana's father was very sensitive. If he noticed something when Juliana was not mentally prepared, a happy new year festival would end up with a tragedy.

Juliana looked at Arthur's troubled face, took a deep breath, and whispered, "Arthur, I've got a favor to ask."

"What is it?" Arthur didn't know why Juliana was suddenly so careful with her words.

"If you need a reason to accompany me home, a special new relationship should be formed between us..." Juliana looked into his eyes and said, "Arthur, can you pretend to be my boyfriend?" "What?" Hearing this proposal, Arthur was surprised, and he immediately refused, "How can we do this? You and I have been good friends since childhood. Parents of us know this and it won't work!" Arthur sincerely regarded Juliana as a confidant, so he refused this proposal.

Juliana had expected he would say that. She lowered her eyes in frustration and apologized softly, "I'm sorry. This method just popped up in my mind. I shouldn't have said it to embarrass you."

"I didn't..." Arthur realized that his direct refusal had hurt Juliana's feelings, and he wanted to apologize but didn't know what to say.

Slowly standing up, Juliana wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and forced a smile at Arthur, saying, "It's OK. I'll think of another way. I'm just afraid that my parents..."

Juliana paused, choked, and could not speak. She turned around and walked upstairs without giving Arthur room to stop her. However, when Juliana went upstairs, she did not go directly to her room but hid quietly in the corner to see Arthur's reaction.

In the living room, Arthur stood there. Bewilderment and mixed feelings crept upon his handsome face. Juliana wiped her tears away and then showed a meaningful smile.

Once she made the evil spirit get a hold of her, she could never easily get rid of it.

In the living room, Arthur looked at the empty stairway for a long time before he sat down. He knew from the bottom of his heart that Juliana's suggestion was feasible, and it was even what the two families expected most earlier.

The Davies and Knight families had wanted to connect with each other through marriage before. Unfortunately, Juliana got acquainted with the four young masters of the Davies family when she was a little girl and had long lost the chance to have a crush on any of them, so the elders gave up the idea.

But if he agreed to Juliana's suggestion, he couldn't explain it to his family. They all knew that he loved Lucia so much. If he suddenly became Juliana's boyfriend, what would he be? An unfaithful lover? Thinking of Lucia, Arthur stopped breathing for a second, and his heart contracted.

In fact, he could see her every day, albeit hidden in the dark.

Arthur once came to Jibillion Inc in the afternoon when he got off work. He stopped his car and walked downstairs to wait for Lucia secretly.

However, he found that Lucia never left work on time.

At first, he was puzzled. He didn't know that Lucia was working overtime until he accidentally found that only the floor of her office was still lit at 9:00 p.m.

As a senior leader, Lucia didn't have to work overtime day and night. But since she broke up with him, she had worked overtime every day. Arthur knew that she worked to numb herself.

He clearly knew that, but he had no choice but to feel distressed. He could only come over at noon to wait for Lucia to come out for lunch and look at her from afar.

She seemed thinner today...

Why was she wearing few clothes today?

Who came out with her today?

Every day, Arthur stood at the corner of the building next to Jibillion Inc and looked at Lucia.

Arthur was deeply in love with Lucia. On the other hand, he could not disregard Juliana's feelings. He could not embrace the woman he loved as he wished. Actually, Arthur was the most painful person among the three of them.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

For more than half a month, Arthur and Lucia never contacted again except for the unpleasant meeting in the riverside park.

Only Arthur himself knew how much he missed Lucia, but even the last chance to prove her innocence was gone. How could their relationship work?

Arthur was silent.

When he was lost in thought, his mobile phone rang suddenly. Arthur looked down and saw that it was Sophie's call. He answered the phone. "Mom, how is Teddy now?"

Now the only thing he could do for Lucia was to take good care of Theodore, so Arthur asked immediately.

"Teddy is fine, but he has been away from Lucia for too long. Now he has lost interest in any other thing. Every day he clamors to go back to see his mother. Arthur, what should I do?"

"I've thought about it. We should take Theodore to visit the graves of his ancestors, so we can send him back to his mom after the new year festival," Arthur said.

"Yes. I think it's perfect," Sophie replied hurriedly. That was the answer she wanted most.

Then she asked, "What about Lucia?"

"Let me talk about it with her," Arthur replied. He wanted to take this opportunity to meet Lucia alone, as he really missed her.

Hearing Arthur's words, Sophie hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Is there still no clue about Juliana's accident?"
