She is a CEO novel Chapter 598

Seeing Lucia's happy look, Arthur relaxed and the recent tension eased a little.

When Helena saw Arthur sitting on the chaise longue with Lucia, she slipped away. She didn't want to be a third wheel, and when she returned to the living room, she saw Theodore running out to find his parents. Helena quickly stopped him.

"Oh..." Theodore looked out the window at his parents, who were sitting quietly together. "Helena, you don't want me to disturb mommy and daddy, do you?"

"Of course," Helena laughed. "I'm not going to be the third wheel, and you're not going to be that too."

Although they didn't choose to be the third wheels, they still leaned over the window to look at Arthur and Lucia, both of whose eyes were shining.

While Lucia enjoyed a rare peace, the villa's forecourt was filled with a sense of impending depression.

Spencer came back, and he brought back Esmae.

Esmae was sullen, and the more unhappy she was, the happier Spencer became.

Ewan opened the door for them and ushered the distinguished guest into the villa.

"Ewan, you didn't disturb them, did you?" Spencer asked Ewan as soon as he entered the villa, without telling Esmae to rest first.

"No, I sent everyone else back," Ewan said respectfully. "Now is the time for them to be caught off guard."

"Are all the exits secured?" Spencer asked again.

"All of them, and now not even a fly can fly out," Ewan replied immediately. His voice hinted that he was proud of himself.

"Spencer," Esmae said, looking over, "I'm going to ask you one more time if you're telling the truth."

"Ms. Wilson, it's absolutely true! I specifically asked Ewan not to disturb them. You're here now and you can definitely see the truth," Spencer promised solemnly.

"Didn't you set them up?" Esmae asked again.

"Absolutely not, and besides, even if I set them up, they wouldn't be stupid enough to let me push them around," Spencer replied.

"Alright, let's go to the small building now!" Esmae's eyes darkened as she led the way to the backyard. Spencer quickly followed behind Ewan. There were servants by Ewan's side as they headed towards the small building.

The morning sunshine was warm and cozy, and Lucia was lying comfortably in the recliner, looking out at the blue sky she hadn't seen in a long time. She knew Arthur was looking at her from the corner of his eye, but she didn't dare to respond.

Lucia wanted Arthur to accompany her, but she couldn't find an excuse to distance herself from him after the baby was born. However, she was willing to do so. If she missed out on this, it would be a lifelong regret.

Arthur was indeed peeking at Lucia. He liked the light in her eyes, the way she slightly frowned, the way she... No matter how he looked at her, it was all what he liked.

In such a quiet morning, it really can make people produce a kind of quiet good feeling.

Arthur was thinking to himself when Lucia, who was beside him, suddenly reached out and patted him on the arm. Arthur turned to look and saw that Lucia was a little flustered. She said,

"Look, is someone coming?"

Lucia had been looking up at the sky, so her eyes were a little blurry, but when she looked down, she clearly saw a group of people not far away coming this way.

Arthur looked up, and sure enough, under the sun, a group of people was clearly coming this way. And Arthur had seen who was leading them.

Esmae soon came to Lucia, and Lucia struggled to her feet. Arthur was very anxious because he could not help her.

"Esmae, what are you doing back..." Lucia thought she was doing the right thing, but she dared not face Esmae.

She thought Esmae would get all up in Arthur's business, but Esmae just gave Arthur a cold look and then looked back at Lucia and said,

"Where's Helena?!"

Lucia was startled and, like Helena in the living room, had a premonition.

"Helena... should be in the living room..." Lucia had no choice but to answer.

When Esmae heard this, she walked straight to the door of the building, past Arthur as if he didn't exist, but Spencer glared at him as he passed, and said through gritted teeth,

"Arthur, I'll deal with you later!"

Then he followed Esmae into the building.

Arthur was a little surprised by the two of them. Didn't Esmae come back for him. So... ? Who was she after?

Looking into Lucia's eyes, Arthur saw the same worry.

"Lucia, let's go in and see what happens." Arthur came over and held Lucia, and the two walked into the building together.
