She is a CEO by George Chapman

Arthur heard the meaning of his mother's words, and he scratched his head irritably and walked over to the sofa, staring at the thermos on the table and saying, "Mom, you came just to bring me soup?" This was something Jan usually did.

"I'm here to save lives," Sophie said bluntly.

Arthur only froze for a moment, and shot daggers at Kyle standing in the doorway. Kyle who met his gaze immediately jumped up. He excused himself and quickly fled.

"Arthur, the employees are paid to do their jobs, not to be scolded by you. I know you are not in a good mood, but you cannot take them as an outlet to vent your anger for no reason," Sophie pulled Arthur to sit down with her and said lovingly to him.

"I can't help it." Lowering his head, Arthur said painfully. He really couldn't help it. He couldn't keep his calm. He lost his mind very easily.

Sophie sighed as she stroked her son's back. No one knew Arthur's inner pain better than she did as a mother, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"The truth is that you can't get whatever you," Sophie said with a sigh, thinking that she could not solve the conflict between her and Esmae.

"Mom, I miss her." Only in front of his mother could Arthur show his vulnerability. He turned to look at Sophie to speak of his longing for Lucia, with bitterness in his eyes.

"Arthur." Sophie said softly as she raised her hand to caress her son's defined side face, "Is this the only way to settle this?"

Arthur got the implication of Sophie's words and looked at her strangely.

"You said it was hard for her to get pregnant, yet she conceived a child in one night. She obviously has no feelings for you, yet she did not push you away when you lost your mind. I always feel that Julia is acting suspiciously." With a keen sense, Sophie told her suspicions about Juliana to Arthur for the first time.

"You suspect this was designed by Julia?" Arthur asked immediately.

"Yep." Sophie continued without denying it, "That's why I suggested you get engaged first."

"What's the difference between that and being married?" Arthur asked again.

"The baby will be born at the time of the wedding, and by then it can have a DNA test, can't it?" Although DNA can be taken from amniotic fluid, Sophie knew that the Knight family would surely disapprove, so she chose to stall for time.

"You suspect that Julia's baby is not mine?" Arthur was shocked, he didn't expect Sophie to have such a thought.

"I know I should not suspect Julia, but my instincts have never been wrong, and I've had a strange feeling since she asked you to pretend to be her boyfriend and go with her for New Year. Based on my understanding of her, she would rather tell the truth to her parents than require you to go home with her as a fake boyfriend, unless she had some other motives," Sophie said.

"Julia is not that kind of person!" Arthur still believed in Juliana, even though Lucia and Eduard had both warned him, but he never wanted to doubt her.

"Humans can change, especially after they experience a tragedy." Sophie intoned. Back then, Esmae was a lively and cheerful young girl, but later she become stubborn and capricious because of her hatred. Arthur smiled and lowered his eyes in contemplation. Sophie's words made sense, but Julia ... would she really do that?

"You don't have to worry about it, I will take care of it alone," Sophie said, understanding her son's dilemma, "I will ask for a DNA test after the baby is born, even if Julia doesn't want it." "Mom..." Arthur didn't express his opinion on it.

"Also, find time to talk to your father. He is still angry." Sophie patted Arthur's shoulder and said, "Edwin is very serious. He admires Lucia and he will defend her, let alone his lovely grandson, so I'm afraid it's not easy for him to accept Juliana."

"I know it..." Arthur said with an undertone, "I made a mistake, and I will admit it to Dad."

Compared to Arthur and Lucia who were suffering, Juliana was very comfortable and relaxed, enjoying her mother's care every day, and because of Kayla, Juliana could spend the embarrassing moments with Arthur.

After the engagement party, Juliana and Arthur were embarrassed to stay together, because they knew they didn't love each other and it was impossible for them to share a room.

That night, when they returned from the engagement party, it was Kayla who first suggested that they should not sleep in the same room or have sex in the first trimester which was a dangerous period, so that they could avoid embarrassment.

Soon after Sophie returned to New York, Juliana advised Kayla to go home first. It was not that she did not want her mother to stay with her to take care of her, but with her mother around, Juliana could hardly go out with Kane in private.

Kayla left Athegate half a month after the engagement party. Before she left, she earnestly urged Arthur to take good care of Juliana, and Arthur could only agree. Then Arthur went to the company to deal with the company's work, while Juliana contacted Kane immediately and they met again.

Kane hadn't seen Juliana for a long time, and as soon as they met, he hugged her. Juliana smiled sweetly and said, "Watch out for my tummy."

Time was really healing. With the days going on and being pampered by Kane, Juliana began to care about the child in her belly, as if it was really Kane's child.

"Are you still suffering from morning sickness?" Kane asked Juliana with concern as he helped her to sit down.

"No, probably because I am in a better mood." Juliana was not as anxious as before. She smilingly answered Kane, and even gently stroked her stomach.

"That's good. I was afraid you still hated it and wouldn't take care of yourself," Kane said with a light smile.

"No, I won't. You have said that you will treat it as your own child, so naturally I will not give it a hard time," Juliana said as she leaned into Kane's arms.

"Julia... you're engaged to Arthur; he didn't... sleep with you, did he?" Kane spoke as if implying something.

"No need to worry," Seeing Kane's jealous look, Juliana felt happy. She said with a smile, "Arthur loves Lucia. Though I am reluctant to admit it, it does help ease the embarrassment between him and me." "That's great..." Kane sighed in relief.
