She is a CEO by George Chapman

Chapter 206 Why Approach Her!



"See?" Lucia said to Eduard with a smile.

"Lucia! Good job!" Although his palm hurt so much, Eduard gave Lucia a trembling thumbs up.

Lucia rolled her eyes at Eduard, but was amused.

On the other side, with boiling rage inside him, Arthur rushed to Spencer when he was alone and asked, "Spencer, do you and Lucia know each other very well?" When he was watching them dancing on the dance floor and getting closer and closer, the reason left in him was replaced by jealousy.

Spencer was expecting Arthur to be out of control. At this time, seeing Arthur come to him, he feigned an innocent look but was very complacent within himself. Then he casually replied, "Yep, we are on good terms with each other. Arthur, do you think it's proper for you to ask that question?"

Arthur looked into Spencer's eyes without answering, but the angry look in his eyes revealed all his thoughts.

"Julia's still looking at us." Spencer let out a laugh, gesturing for Arthur to look in Juliana's direction.

Arthur turned his head, and really saw Juliana staring at him in the corner. Complicated feelings surged through him in an instant.

"Your fiancée is by your side. As your cousin, I don't think it's proper for you to get jealous for another woman," Spencer said in a serious tone.

Arthur immediately understood what Spencer was trying to insinuate, so he just said straightforwardly to Spencer, "What exactly is your purpose?"

"Arthur, what do you mean? My purpose?" Spencer asked, playing dumb.

"Why did you approach Lucia? You knew she and I ..." Arthur was more interested in Spencer's purpose for approaching Lucia than in his purpose for coming back home to start up business.

"What happened to her and you?" Spencer kept a calm smile on his face, but there was an intimidating look in his eyes. "Arthur, don't forget what you are, who your fiancée is, and the child you have with Julia!"

Arthur was undeterred, shot daggers at Spencer and said in a deep voice, "Why do you approach her!"

Spencer was startled. Since childhood, he had known Arthur would not give up easily or be threatened by others. Also, Arthur was the greatest one among the Davies of the same generation and Grandfather's favorite grandson. Thus, Spencer always took Arthur as an imaginary enemy. He would try everything to get the same as what Arthur had.

However, it wasn't because Arthur once owned Lucia that Spencer wanted to get her.

Suppressing his feelings, Spencer looked coldly at Arthur and said in a manly manner, "Lucia is beautiful and excellent. You're not the only one who has a crush on her!" Spencer chose to confess his feelings for Lucia to Arthur because he was trying to shift Arthur's attention to Lucia. Then he could carry out his plan much more smoothly. "Yes?" Arthur showed a smile. He got much relieved to hear Spencer's confession.

Then he said, "Well then, just try your best. It's not strange that you should have a crush on her, but she won't easily fall for a man."

Arthur's confidence annoyed Spencer. Their made eye contact, with tensions growing between them.

Just after dealing with Arthur, Jacob came to pick on Spencer.

"Spencer, why did you ask Lucia to dance with you?" Jacob was also annoyed.

Spencer was speechless. The woman he fell in love with was indeed too good.

"I'm irritating Arthur for you. You couldn't do it yourself, could you?" Spencer said deliberately.

Jacob could not retort Spencer. He could neither ask Lucia to dance with him, nor could he stand Arthur's anger, let alone deal with Poppy who was green-eyed.

"Don't waste your time on trivia if you wanna achieve big things." Spencer seemed to persuaded Jacob patiently, "You should settle your family matters rather than on Lucia. After you are done, you can pursue her openly and confidently, right?"

Spencer reminded Jacob.

Jacob frowned and thought it made sense. It seemed he gotta think about how to deal with Poppy.

The dinner party was more than a party. With different thoughts, everyone believed they were doing the right things, and tried to gain a foothold in their complicated network.

After the celebration, Cloudwork Corp was kept low-key again. Spencer took action secretly. As time went by, people in Athegate almost forgot about Cloudwork which once made a sensation, which was what Spencer expected.

Jacob sent his henchman to spy on Poppy. And he did find some clues.

Juliana's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and the frequent fetal movements bothered her so much that she often couldn't sleep all night long. Luckily, Kane would spare some time to keep her company, so she endured the hardship and waited for the expected date of childbirth.

Arthur was constantly concerned about the what Cloudwork Corp and JTP Group were doing, and the situation of Lucia, who had recently started to avoid various social gatherings and parties again. And he had not seen her for a long time. Seeing Juliana's bigger belly and thinking about the unborn baby, he was in a depressed mood.

Lucia was still investigating the scandal six years ago, but unfortunately she got no clues. She didn't give up, but no good news came. Gradually, she began to get irritated, but the real reason she was irritated was the news of Arthur taking his fiancée to do maternity checkups. Every time she saw the news reports about it, Lucia would feel it hard to breathe.

Recently, the Athegate government was planning the development of the nearby island. Winning this project would guarantee the chance to cooperate with the most famous real estate company and bring huge benefits to the company. Thus, almost all investment companies were attracted by this project.

Arthur was determined to get the development projects of the islands. Juliana's due date was in about two months. If he could get the project before then, his work would be much easier and he would have more time to spend with the baby. Juliana, however, complained about Arthur's negligence in taking care of her.
