She is a CEO novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775 Unwanted Intentions

Esmae wasn't happy with Helena's display of care for Arthur, and she knew that Helena was never someone who got close to people for no reason, especially the opposite sex, which meant they had a lot of contact, even, had developed into a close friendship.

Why did her children have to be associated with the Davies!

Unconsciously, Esmae's eyes lit up with anger.

Otis, on the other hand, sensed Esmae's emotions, and normally he'd be concerned about the feelings of his elders, but now?

Having seen Esmae's obstinacy firsthand, Otis didn't have the faintest good feeling about her.

Walking straight up to Arthur, Otis tapped him on the shoulder, and was relieved he didn't see the stubble.

"Arthur, don't worry. We'll find Lucia and the baby."

Arthur nodded and looked at Esmae and Chris.

"Mr. Brown," he said, knowing that the failure of Lucia's escape was due to Esmae's informant. Arthur was as angry with her as he was with his brother, so he didn't even look at her but went straight to Chris.

"Welcome to Athegate. I've booked you into a room in hotel. You traveled a lot. Please go and get some rest."

Chris was surprised that Arthur had thought of it. He was about to say something when Esmae, who was sitting next to him, beat him to the punch.

"Don't try to be nice here. We have nothing to do with you. Spencer will take care of us when we get to Athegate. Don't worry about us!"

Arthur glanced sideways at Esmae. He didn't say anything but stared at her coldly. His eyes were serious and stern, filled with complicated emotions.

If she hadn't been so kind to Lucia, she'd be the first person Arthur would hold accountable!

Esmae had never felt such pressure in the eyes of others, and she felt stuck in her throat, some unable to speak.

Chris, sensing Arthur's mood, immediately drew Esmae slightly back and said kindly to him,

"Thank you for your kindness, but right now, Spencer doesn't know that we're interested in working together. He's a paranoid person. If he finds out that we're in contact with each other, it'll only cause him emotional turmoil. Therefore, it's best for us to look for him alone at the moment. It'll be better for Lucia and the baby's safety."

Arthur looked into Chris' eyes and saw in them the same stable and loving qualities as his father, so he nodded his head gently and said,

"Please let me know if you have any updates."

"Of course.". As soon as Chris spoke, Esmae, who was in protective custody, leaned over and spoke.

"It can't be!" Esmae, chagrined that she was somewhat afraid of Arthur's gaze, said stiffly,

"Lucia and the baby, of course we'll get Spencer to hand them over, but why should you know?"

"Because I love her." Arthur answered without hesitation. A pair of eyes was shining with a burning light.

Esmae was speechless again.

"Ok," said Chris hurriedly, "you guys go ahead. We're going to contact Spencer now."

"Arthur, let's go." Otis stepped forward and pulled Arthur back, afraid that Arthur would punch Esmae in the face.

Arthur glanced sideways at Otis, nodded, and started the engine again, heading home.

Esmae, who was at the airport, didn't wait for Spencer to send someone to pick her up. She hailed a car with her husband and daughter and went straight to Spencer's house. By the time they arrived, Spencer wasn't at home, and Ewan was the only one to receive them.

Ewan and Spencer already knew it. Seeing them at this time, Ewan was proud. The fact they will come had been expected.

"Welcome, but Mr. Davies is in the company now. Do you want me to invite him back right away?" Ewan pretended to greet them as he led them into the living room.

"Spencer says Lucia is still in the building, and we want to see Lucia now," Esmae said, staring at Ewan. An old butler like him was usually so smooth that she didn't pay any attention to what he said.

Ewan was unfazed by Esmae's demand, because Spencer had already worked out their own response.

"The young lady is not in the building now."

Esmae raised an eyebrow.

"Yesterday Spencer told me she was in the building with the baby, and now you're saying she's not?!"

"It was yesterday, but the young lady has been in a bad mood since the day before yesterday... you know, so Mr. Davies arranged for her to go out for a walk."

"What a load of crap!" Before Esmae could question, Helena snapped. "Spencer would be so kind as to send Lucia away?!"

"Miss Brown, Mr. Davies loves her dearly. Even after what happened the night before, he still cares for her," Ewan answered calmly.
