She is a CEO by George Chapman

Passing the crowd and seeing that Lucia had no intention of walking side by side with him, Spencer kept up with her and said in a self-deprecating tone, "It seems there were several times when I chased after you like this."

"So wouldn't it be better to give up?" Lucia glanced sideways at Spencer and said meaningfully.

"I can't give up," Spencer said with a smile, "Lucia, you know about Julia's delivery, right?"

"Everyone at Athegate knows about it," Lucia replied, thinking that he did bring it up as she expected.

"Arthur now has a fiancée and a child. Why not choose to be with me?" Spencer asked her.

"These are two things." Lucia frowned, paused, and said impatiently, "I told you I hate calculating people."

"You won't choose him even if that person won't betray you like Arthur did?" Spencer knew Lucia was annoyed, but still said Arthur's name out loud.

Lucia frowned tightly as Spencer's words irritated her greatly.

"Lucia, just give me a chance to prove that I can give you happiness. I can help you get JTP back and revenge on Jacob and Poppy." Spencer finally made it clear what he had come to her for.

"I can't stop you from being stubborn, but I will never change my mind." Lucia was extremely annoyed. She didn't want to listen to Spencer's nonsense anymore.

After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked back, but Spencer's words made her stop after she took a few steps.

"Lucia, to prove that I am faithful to my word, I assure you that Poppy will be abandoned by Jacob in less than a month!"

Lucia looked back at Spencer with no emotions in her bright eyes.

"Whatever," She responded indifferently and stepped into the crowd, making Spencer unable to catch up.

Juliana returned to Arthur's villa and began to be in confinement. Sophie and Kayla took good care of her. With the attentive care of the babysitter and caregiver, she recovered quickly, but her mood was not as good as her physical condition.

Sophie and Kayla stayed with her all the time. Juliana hadn't had a chance to contact Kane since childbirth. She knew that the news of her birth had gotten out and wondered how much Kane wanted to see how she was doing now.

So, one night, when everyone fell asleep, Juliana quietly went to the backyard garden and called Kane.

Kane's anxious voice came out, making Juliana feel more at ease.

"Julia, how are you doing now?"

Juliana leaned under the tree and listened to Kane's voice with a faint smile on her face as she replied, "Well, I'm fine and the baby is fine."

"Is the baby healthy? How much weight is it? What time was it born? Does it look like you or like me?" Kane asked a barrage of questions.

Juliana smiled softly and said, "Kane, don't be silly. How can my child look like you?"

Because of Kane's acceptance of the baby, Juliana had long accepted the source of the child, so she spoke calmly, but Kane on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time. "Kane, what happened?" Juliana couldn't get a response and asked him hurriedly.

"It's okay. I'm just sorry I can't be there for you." Kane's voice was sincere, he was speaking his real thoughts.

Juliana only felt a warmth surge through her. The cold phone in her hand seemed to be heated and bond her and Kane. She smiled. "It's okay. I know you always wanna be with me."

If it weren't for Kane, Juliana wouldn't have made it this far. She wanted so much to give up and take the lives of her and her kid after it was born at that time.

"Julia, you're still in confinement, right?" Kane asked.

Juliana was so smart that he knew what he really wanted to ask and could only reply resignedly, "Yes, Sophie and my mom have been by my side, and I couldn't get rid of them to take the baby to see you." "It is fine, as long as you and the baby are healthy. We'll see each other anyway." Although frustrated, Kane reassured Juliana.

Juliana smiled and could imagine the scene when they met, and just then a voice came from behind Juliana.

"Julia, what are you doing in the garden at this late hour?"

Juliana's heart jumped and she turned around, only to see Sophie standing in the doorway and looking at her. She hurriedly put the phone away behind her with a nervous face.

"Julia! Julia?" On the other end of the phone, Kane didn't know what was happening and called out to Juliana worriedly, but it so happened that Juliana's finger accidentally pressed the speakerphone button and Kane's voice came out.

"Whose voice is that?" Sophie stared at Juliana and asked her in a deep voice.

"Just a friend," Juliana panicked, took out her phone, and turned it off. Not daring to look Sophie in the eye, she changed the subject. "Sophie, still up this late?"

"I can't sleep. I feel like I hear the baby crying," Sophie said, emotionless, but her gaze at Juliana was sharp.

"Why did you come here to answer the phone at this late hour?"

"Because of time differences. It's a friend in the USA," Juliana answered, hoping Sophie would skip the question soon.

"Is that so?" Sophie responded softly, not pursuing it any further, as Juliana had hoped.

But as Sophie continued, Juliana was more uneasy. "Julia, you are not on such good terms with Arthur, right?"

Juliana stopped breathing for a moment and nervously asked Sophie, "Sophie, what do you mean?"

"I am old enough, so I know how a couple will get along with each other if they are in love. But you and Arthur always keep a proper distance from each other." Sophie said with an undertone. Juliana lowered her eyes and thought to herself, 'I just knew Sophie was hard to deal with.'

"Since Arthur has decided to be engaged to you, what happens between you and him is your business," Sophie continued when she saw that Juliana was silent.

Just as Juliana was breathing a sigh of relief at her words, she added, "But I gotta interfere in the baby's business."

Juliana's heart thudded at her words. She looked up at Sophie in a daze, not understanding what Sophie meant.

"Julia, you know that Douglas was born prematurely, right? He was born a month early, just like your baby. At that time, he was weak, thin, and somewhat stunted as a newborn. And he only slowly got better under the care of his family." Sophie mentioned Douglas to Juliana.
