She is a CEO novel Chapter 450

"Master," the bodyguard once again lowered his head and said, "Women are creatures who want to refuse but still welcome. Sometimes it is better to be direct."

"That you help me arrange. If I succeed, not less your benefit." Spencer had a trace of sly light in his eyes and said.

"Yes." Although the bodyguard lowered his head, the smile on his lips was still conspicuous.

Today, Spencer didn't bother Lucia. Lucia was bored in her room, so she was video-chatting with Theodore in Chicago. Helena had returned to Browns Manor. It was so uncomfortable to talk about things online.

In front of Theodore, Helena didn't say anything, and Lucia didn't say anything either, so the child didn't notice anything strange, but the look on Lucia's face changed when he asked about his father. Helena changed the subject in time, and soon sent Theodore away.

"Helena, is it really okay for Teddy to bring you coffee?" Lucia laughed at Helena's move to distract Theodore.

"Right now he's in recovery, and it's good for his health to get some exercise." Helena and Theodore, though different in age, were about the same as friends, and Helena often told Theodore what to do.

"Please take care of him. I can't... right now." Lucia's eyes darkened, and she chose a word that wouldn't irritate Helena.

But Helena wasn't happy. She rolled her eyes and said, "I'll keep an eye on Teddy. I know you're on your engagement trip."

Lucia smiled wryly, without explaining anything.

"Are you free today? Where's Spencer?" Helena asked, not wanting to mention the man.

"I'm a bit tired, so it's my day off," Lucia replied with understatement.

Helena snorted and looked around her deliberately. "Isn't he in the room?" She asked

As Helena had noticed, Spencer wasn't on camera for hours, and Lucia seemed to be living alone in a room.

"He went out early, to see a friend, and won't be back until the afternoon," Lucia had to lie. Seeing Helena as if she didn't want to let the subject go, she asked,

"Don't you hate him? Why do you keep bringing him up?"

"That's why I'm asking about him. I want to see if he's bullying you," Helena said with a snort.

"He wouldn't dare." Lucia wasn't kidding.

"I heard from Otis that Arthur is in Miami... Have you met?" Thinking for a moment, Helena couldn't help mentioning Arthur.

"No." Lucia lowered her eyes and pursed her lips after speaking. Helena stared at her for a long time on the other side of the video and suddenly sighed,

"Lucia, do you really not love Arthur? You don't act like you don't feel anything for him..."

"Don't mention him," said Lucia, turning her face away slightly.

"Why not?" The more Lucia tried to escape, the more Helena felt that she could not forget Arthur. "You must not forget Teddy is you and his son," she said, "You two will eventually meet. If that's possible..."

"Then please forgive our impoliteness." The bodyguard raised his eyes to look at Lucia. He tried his best to show his professional ethics in front of this gorgeous woman, and was afraid of the amazement in her eyes.

Lucia frowned when she heard that. She looked at the corridor. Indeed, a few bodyguards were looking at her. Spencer was afraid that he would not be able to persuade her and would use force to coerce her.

"Okay, you can just knock on the door when it's time," said Lucia, who knew it was impossible to ignore Spencer completely.

"OK," the bodyguard replied respectfully, watching Lucia close the door.

After dinner, the bodyguard knocked on Lucia's door again. This time, she did not say anything more. She simply said "lead the way" and followed them.

A group of ten bodyguards surrounded Lucia in the middle and headed to the beach not far from the hotel. Lucia's beauty attracted countless people, but those who were eager to approach her were all glared away by the bodyguards. Lucia thought they might be of some use to her.

In less than fifteen minutes, Lucia and the group came to a clump of palm trees, under which a group of young men and women were dancing around the fire, enjoying the cool night breeze and the gentle moonlight.

Spencer was sitting next to a small bar. He crossed his legs and his handsome face was obscured by the shadow of the fire. It wasn't until he saw Lucia that a smile appeared on his face.

"Lucia, you're here." Spencer walked over to meet Lucia and was very satisfied with her outfit. Lucia was wearing a long low-cut dress tonight. Her fair skin was sparkling under the moonlight and the shadow of the fire. She looked very attractive, neither frivolous, nor flamboyant. This was the Lucia he most longed to see.

"Dare I not come?" Lucia deliberately glanced at the bodyguards around her, with cold sarcasm.

Spencer smiled and did not say anything. He reached out his hand to Lucia and wanted to take her to the bar. However, how could Lucia respond to him? She walked straight past him. Spencer turned around and looked at her slim back, and his eyes darkened.
