She is a CEO novel Chapter 436

Reynolds's feelings were complicated. He didn't believe that Lucia was willing to marry Spencer, but he also wondered if she was so sure that they were at an impasse. Lucia wanted to pull his hand away, and he won't let go. But holding her hand, Reynolds had no way of persuading her to leave with him.

Just then, a person came up to them. It was Helena.

Helena wanted Reynolds to take Lucia away, but Lucia didn't want him to, and Helena didn't want him to be embarrassed.

Walking over to Reynolds and Lucia, Helena whispered, "Reynolds, let it go. If I could talk Lucia out of it, I would."

Reynolds looked at his sister with dark eyes.

Seeing that Reynolds wouldn't let go, Helena simply pulled Lucia's hand out of his. Reynolds didn't want to, but looking at Lucia's determined eyes, he finally let go.

As soon as Helena saw Reynolds let go, she led him out without hesitation, turned to Lucia as she said, "Lucia, go. I trust you."

This was Helena's kinship to Lucia.

Lucia nodded gratefully to Helena and watched her leave with Reynolds.

This was simply a ridiculous farce. A marriage blocker appeared without any warning but was seemingly easily persuaded away. Furthermore, the daughter of the Brown family obviously knew him, which added a touch of mystery to the farce.

But at least everyone knew that this man was definitely not Arthur, and some people said gloatingly that if Arthur really came, that would be good to see.

Seeing the troublemaker leave, Spencer quickly stepped off the stage and took Lucia back to the main stage. This time, he held Lucia's hand tightly as if she were about to fly away.

Lucia looked down at Spencer's hand and whispered sarcastically, "Your threat is still valid. You don't have to hold on so tight."

Spencer was very upset to hear Lucia say that. Standing in the holy church, he had done everything with a purpose, and it was not a lie to love Lucia. However, her words clearly reminded him that she had been forced to cooperate, and Spencer felt a little hurt at the moment.

But it was never the emotions that hurt the greedy. Thinking of all he could get in the future, Spencer covered up his disappointment and let pride take over again.

Lucia, one day you will fall in love with me!

The engagement party, after a few interventions, was completed with Spencer's self-righteous confidence. After the engagement ceremony, Spencer picked up the microphone and said to all the guests in the church,

"Everyone, I know that there were doubts about my relationship with Lucia before this. Many people even speculated about it. But Lucia's loyalty to me today has said it all. We truly love each other. Thank you for your blessings. Please head to Majestic Peak Hotel. I have prepared delicious food and wine for you. I hope you will enjoy yourselves."

As soon as Spencer finished speaking, everyone applauded in cooperation. Then, they started going to the hotel one after another according to what he said. After the engagement ceremony, it was naturally a celebration dinner. Moreover, Spencer had arranged a lot of good programs, which can entertain them to play until the evening.

The guests slowly dispersed, and Spencer was about to take Lucia back to the lounge when he noticed that Lucia seemed to be staring into a place. He looked up and saw Eduard again, feeling annoyed.

Eduard didn't leave immediately, but stood in front of Lucia, looking at her with a look so profound that Lucia didn't choose to ignore it. And Lucia was looking back at him, but her eyes were indecipherable.

"We're engaged now. Don't you think we should take it to the next level?"

"Don't bother," said Lucia impatiently. She just wanted to take off her white dress. "I told you to go out. I'm going to change."

"Didn't I just say that between us..." Spencer didn't back down. Instead, he moved closer to Lucia and was about to touch her. "You don't have to be so reserved anymore."

As soon as Spencer's breath reached her, Lucia grabbed hold of Spencer, and as he groaned, Lucia said coldly,

"I think we should keep a low profile!"

Spencer broke Lucia's shackles with a forceful push. He was furious. It was not the first time Lucia had rejected him by force. There was a limit to how much he can take,

"We're engaged! Lucia! I can touch you now!"

"That's just wishful thinking on your part," Lucia scoffed. "I'm the one who decides whether or not to let you get any closer. Besides, you don't have the strength."

With infinite contempt in Lucia's words, Spencer's self-esteem was shattered. He said angrily,

"Lucia, don't think that you can insult me like this just because you're good at martial arts. I'm your fiance. It's only right to hug you. Besides, we're going to be living under the same roof after tonight. How long can you keep your distance from me?!"
