She is a CEO novel Chapter 772

Chapter 772 Betrayal Again

Spencer's words made Otis, Helena and Chris' faces change at the same time, and all three stared at Esmae with meaningful eyes.

Esmae was uncomfortable being stared at. She looked down and said to Spencer,

"Is she still in the building? You didn't do anything to her, did you?"

Although Esmae had asked politely, Spencer immediately guessed that she did know, and associated knew who had tipped her off.

If not the Davies, then who?

Thinking this, Spencer was both smug and amused, and he replied lazily,

"Of course, I just stopped her from leaving. Besides, you know how I feel about her. How could I hurt her?"

Spencer didn't believe a word she said, and Esmae's eyebrows were locked.

"You're lying to me." It was true that Spencer hid Lucia's whereabouts, and it was true that he didn't tell herself, so Esmae stopped hiding and told him.

"Ms. Wilson, I wouldn't dare..." Spencer's tone became dismissive and sarcastic.

"I protect Lucia like you told me to, and now you're questioning me?"

"Where on earth did you hide Lucia and the baby?!" Esmae asked as she could no longer hide her anxiety at Spencer's words.

"Ms. Wilson, she's really in the building. Why don't you come see for yourself?" Spencer replied perfunctorily.

"Spencer, if you hurt her..." Esmae said through clenched teeth, and Spencer over there spoke before she could finish her words.

"I wouldn't dare, Ms. Wilson. I still have to rely on your power to take back Davonnis Corp. H w could I dare to disobey you?" Spencer hinted. "Don't worry. It's late at night. You'd better rest well. Goodbye."

For the first time, Spencer hung up on Esmae. Esmae stared at her cell phone in disbelief, with her face turning pale.

"Mom, I told you he has an ulterior motive. Now what are we going to do?" Helena shouted.

It never occurred to her that Spencer would actually threaten Lucia, and Esmae had no idea.

Seeing his wife's eyes go blank, Chris was both angry and distressed.

"Esmae, it is imperative that we find out where Lucia and the baby are as soon as possible, before he has a chance to hurt them."

Esmae's eyes looked bitter, and she knew it, but how did they find them now?

When Otis heard this, he lost his patience. He simply said,

"I'm here to ask you where Lucia and the baby are. It seems that even you can't do anything about Spencer. In that case, I'll leave you to it."

It was a lie to say that he didn't resent Esmae. Otis had been a gentleman enough to keep his words polite.

After saying that, Otis turned and walked away. Helena, who was aware of his emotions, quickly grabbed his arm. When Otis turned to look at her, she didn't know what to say.

No one could sleep that night. Chris was so angry with Esmae that he didn't speak to her all night. Esmae was so worried about Lucia and the baby's safety that she couldn't ask her husband to forgive her, but she can open her eyes until dawn in a troubled mind.

Otis was able to stay at home for the night, and Helena knew that she couldn't bring him back to her room, nor could she stay in the guest room that had been prepared for him, so she was willing to sit in the living room with Otis.

"Otis, I'm sorry my mother..." Helena wanted to apologize for her mother's mistake, but Otis didn't let her continue.

"Her decision has nothing to do with you. You don't have to apologize for her," Otis said. "I'm not in a good place right now. Arthur's still frantically searching for Lucia and the baby, but we don't even know if they're safe..."

"I know you're mad at my mom," Helena said in a soft, insecure voice.

"How on Earth is she going to realize what she did wrong?" Otis's complaint finally exploded. "If it wasn't for Mr. Brown's insistence, she could even risk the safety of Lucia and the baby for the sake of hatred. I really can't understand."

"It's not that mom doesn't care about Lucia and the baby." When Helena calmed down, she understood what her mother did. She explained to her,

"It's just that she doesn't want to lower her self-esteem in front of you."

"Self-esteem?" Otis thought it was ridiculous. "Lucia and Arthur, me and you, deserve to suffer because of her self-esteem?"

Helena was speechless, unable to argue for her mother.

When he saw that Helena was stunned, Otis's heart softened again. He had forgotten that Esmae was her mother after all, so he reached out to hold Helena and comforted her.

"Helena, I know it's not that she doesn't care about Lucia and the baby. If anything happens to them, she will be very sad, but this can not hide the injustice she has done to us."
