She Is A CEO

Chapter 58 Lucia Decilned Arthur



"You think we have little affection for each other?" Arthur said coldly while slowly standing up.

His self-proclaimed deep love turned into dominance in her eyes. And his self-perceived thoughtfulness and coddling turned into clinginess, and even her emotions, which he clearly felt in deep kisses and hugs, turned into a ridiculous "no deep feelings". Arthur did not expect Lucia to see the relationship between them in this way.

Being disappointed to the extreme was Arthur's most real state of mind right now.

If he had continued to crouch and continued to gaze at Lucia, he might have noticed the flicker of vulnerability and pain in her eyes after she nodded, but unfortunately Arthur couldn't see it, and Lucia hid it away quickly.

"We've only been together for less than two months. Arthur, let's move on." Sensing the disappointment in Arthur's tone, Lucia continued to hurt him.

Lucia relied on this thought to anesthetize herself.

Lucia's last words sent Arthur straight to hell.

Arthur took his jacket from the back of the sofa and put it on, moving quickly without a moment's hesitation. After donning, he walked straight to the door. Just as Lucia finally breathed a sigh of relief, he said, "It's okay to break up, but don't you forget Theodore is my son."

Lucia's heart tightened at the words. She was unable to say a word but could only watch Arthur open the door and leave. The sound of closing the door was loud, like the door to Arthur's heart was closed with a bang.

As soon as Arthur left, Lucia immediately stood up and went to the window sill. She pulled the curtain over her body, only to show a pair of eyes looking at the car downstairs. Soon, she saw Arthur went out of the building and got into the car. The sound of the engine roared from downstairs, and then, the Rolls-Royce Phantom went away in the dust.

Finally he left.

No longer able to see the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Lucia loosened the curtain and slid slowly into a seat. Now she was exhausted and shivering in coldness which was not from the winter chill, but from the heart. "He's gone...," Lucia said, buried her face in her knees and smiled to herself. Her voice was trembling like a falling leaf in a cold wind.

On the floor, there was a few drops of water which was spreading slowly.

Arthur did not know how he got back to the villa. On the way, he opened the car windows, with the help of the cold wind to let himself cool down as if he let the snow wrapped around his heart to make his heart cold. When he returned home, his hands were red from being frozen.

Sophie had not slept and had been waiting for Arthur. As soon as she heard the door open, she ran to the corridor to meet him, and when she saw Arthur shivering with cold, she was heartbroken and shocked. "Arthur! What's wrong!" Sophie scolded while pulling Arthur into the living room and wrapping his body with the blanket she had wrapped herself in earlier, but with immense anger.

As a mother, Sophie was angry and distressed when she saw Arthur not taking care of his health.

Actually Sophie herself was clear that if nothing had happened, Arthur would not have come home tonight... He and Lucia, what had happened?

The soft blanket warmed his body, but it can not melt the frost on Arthur's heart. He just sat like that for a long time. Suddenly, he turned his head and despite that he was strong and taller than his mother, he leaned on Sophie's shoulders. Sophie hurried to hug him, found Arthur was slightly trembling, and then heard him say, "We break up."

Sophie was shocked, hurriedly looked down at her son and found that his eyes were surprisingly red.

Without unnecessary words, Arthur went straight back to his room.

The next morning, Sophie opened the door and saw Arthur standing in front of the room thinking. She was both heartbroken and helpless, but hopefully Lucia really had a hidden agenda. Otherwise she did not even know if Arthur could pass this hurdle.

"You didn't sleep well last night, did you?" Seeing the obvious dark circles under Arthur's eyes, Sophie asked him.

"That's okay. Mom, go to her house and ask if there's something I don't know about. I'll drive you there now." Arthur had even thought of the trip for Sophie.

"Wait, do you want to come along?" Sophie asked as she pulled Arthur's arm.

"Hmm." Arthur replied as a matter of course.

"Do you think Lucia will reveal anything if you are there?" Sophie wanted to roll her eyes at Arthur, whose IQ was now close to negative, but she held back and continued, "You stay home and wait for me. After I ask her what happen, I will call you over."

When Lucia opened the door to meet Sophie, she didn't seem surprised but just hesitant when she called Sophie.

Theodore stood next to Lucia with his little school bag on his back. Because they had been back for two days, Lucia planned to send him to school today. After seeing Sophie, Theodore immediately had a big smile and jumped into Sophie's arms and called her grandma without thinking, making Sophie's heart burst with joy.

"My Teddy seems to have grown quite a bit after not seeing you for so many days." Sophie said as she hugged Theodore and gave him a serious height measurement.

"Really? Really?" Being able to grow up was the wish of countless children, and naturally it was the most cheerful thing for Theodore, who inquired in an innocent voice and stood on tiptoe desperately. "Really, it's true." Sophie stood up and stroked Theodore's little head and looked at Lucia, who was looking down at Theodore and seemed to be consciously avoiding her sight. Sophie sighed secretly and said to her, "Lucia, can you ask Jan to drive Theodore to school? I want to talk to you for a minute."

Sophie naturally wanted to send her grandson to school, but her son was at home and he was waiting hard for her news. She was really afraid that he will be anxious to come on his own, so it was better to talk to Lucia as soon as possible.

Lucia hesitated and finally nodded. Sophie would come over today as she had expected, and even, what she would say afterwards was probably clear to her, but they still had to finish the process. The sooner, the better.

Lucia said, "Then I'll take Theodore down. Sophie, make yourself at home first."

After her words, Lucia let Sophie in and then sent Theodore downstairs herself. She had already met Jan before so she wasn't afraid of mistaken identity.

Sophie saw Lucia and Theodore into the elevator before she went inside. The first thing she did was go to the dining room to see what was left. After finding out that breakfast was indeed toast, Sophie decided to roll up her sleeves and put on her apron to go into the familiar kitchen and start making breakfast.

Ten minutes later, Lucia returned home. As soon as she opened the door, she smelled the smell of food. Lucia frowned and her feelings were complicated. She came to the kitchen door and saw Sophie was seriously making breakfast. After Sophie found her standing at the door, she smiled tenderly and said, "Lucia, just wait a little longer. I will be done in a minute."

"Sophie, I've had breakfast ...," Lucia replied reluctantly, politely indicating that she didn't need to get any more.
