She Is A Ceo Novel By George Chapman -Chapter 479

“So… I am so selfish…”

Lucia muttered to herself with a self-deprecating and wry laughter.

Lucia didn’t realize that she was standing very close to the balcony in the corner. In fact, if she took a few more steps to the left, she would see Arthur. They were only a few steps away from each other.

But Arthur found Lucia, and he saw her from the moment she came this way.

Standing at the edge of the balcony, Arthur quietly watched Lucia’s profile.

Lucia had always been beautiful and picturesque, and when she stood there, even the air around her seemed quiet and tranquil, giving him the illusion that time had passed in peace.

Without a word, time seemed to stop.

Arthur wished he could just look at her without worry, but he laughed at himself, and the meaning in his laugh was so similar to Lucia’s.

There was no peace.

Just as the miserable feeling in Arthur’s heart was spreading, Lucia looked toward the balcony as if she felt something. From her perspective, she could not see Arthur, but she still moved a few steps toward the balcony as if she had been affected by something. Catching off guard, she caught Arthur’s eye.

No wonder she kept feeling like someone was watching her. It turned out he was here.

For a moment Lucia’s eyes softened, but then she remembered her situation.

Having seen him, Lucia did not pretend to be blind, nor did she run away. Instead, she opened her mouth and said to Arthur, “There you are.”

Even with that cold tone, Lucia, now at a special stage in her life, longed to be in touch with Arthur, if only to hear his voice.

Arthur raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect Lucia to speak to him first. Didn’t she hate him?

Despite his doubt, Arthur immediately responded, “Well, here I am. Where’s Spencer?”

Lucia pursed her lips and said softly, “Socializing. I’m in a bad mood, so I’m alone.”

Knowing that their identities were no longer suitable for conversation, Lucia couldn’t help saying so.

“What happened?” Arthur would not hesitate to ask Lucia what she was feeling.

Staring into Lucia’s pretty face, Arthur dared not miss a single reaction.

“Nothing, just a bad mood.” Lucia’s eyes moved and she said it lightly.

“Is it the heat that’s been bothering you lately?” Arthur’s concern was palpable.

Lucia’s heart was aching and her eyes were dry, so she looked down at the floor and said, “Maybe it’s the heat, but it’s not that bad. How are you?”

When Lucia said this, there was a hint of whining. Arthur had the illusion that there was no unpleasantness between them and that they could still talk as before, and care for each other.

“Well, not bad,” Arthur replied gently, looking at Lucia’s slightly fluttering eyelashes.

He was doing not bad indeed with a new companion. Lucia could not help but think bitterly. Remembering his companion, she said casually,

“Where’s your companion? Why aren’t you with her?”

So she noticed?

Arthur can not help but snicker in his heart and explained, “She’s my uni classmate, but also your alumni. She’s on vacation and came here for fun.”

Lucia lowered her eyes and moved her toes, asking unconsciously, “Just a classmate?”

It was rare that they would have a peaceful conversation, and now Lucia had said something so ambiguous that both of them were stunned.

Looking up, they looked at each other again. Arthur’s eyes were as deep as sea. Lucia wanted to escape because she actually said her true thoughts out!

Without any hesitation, Lucia looked away and turned to leave. However, in the next second, her waist was held and she sensed a familiar feeling. In a flash, Arthur had already carried her into the corner of the balcony and also avoided everyone’s attention.

“What are you doing? Let go of me!” The warmth felt on her back was so sentimental, but Lucia could only grit her teeth and lower her head to resist.

“Lucia…” Arthur’s low and magnetic voice was full of love, and he held Lucia in his arms with a gentle strength that would never let her escape. Then he was whispering,

“Why did you ask…”

If there was no trace of feelings, why did she still care about him?

At this moment, Arthur’s breath was warming her ear. His strong hands happened to be touching her abdomen. Lucia’s rationality could not withstand her emotional dependence. She leaned into his arms slightly to absorb his warmth.

When Lucia leaned slightly against him, Arthur’s heart skipped a beat and he tightened his grip.

Lucia, what am I gonna do with you?

“Can you tell me what’s going on with you and Spencer… Why you’re with him? I just want the truth, Lucia. I just want the truth.” novelbin

From birth to the present, Arthur was a dazzling existence. He was born with a sense of superiority, had the strength and aura to look down everything, but in front of his beloved woman, he can bend his knees, abandon his dignity and plead her.

When Spencer’s name was spoken, it also represented Lucia returned to sanity.

When she pushed Arthur away, she put her hand on the back of his hand and gently pressed it against her abdomen. Then, she gritted her teeth and pulled his hand away. When she turned around, Lucia’s eyes already looked cold,

“What I saw is the truth. Arthur, I’m done with you. Even if I said the wrong thing just now, it’s only because of the time I spent with you. If we didn’t have that grudge, we might have been able to live happily ever after, but we can’t! I can’t get the hate out of my head!”

As she spoke, Lucia’s cold eyes showed a fierce hatred that penetrated Arthur’s heart.

It was as if the air had suddenly been cut off. Arthur felt waves of pain in his body.

Lucia’s face was so beautiful, so cold, but only she knew how hard she was biting her teeth. She looked away and said calmly, “start your new relationship well.” Then, she turned around and entered the crowd again. Her hand was on her heart, as if doing so would make it hurt less.

Why? Why did she say that?!

Lucia knew that words hurt Arthur the most.

Looking at the purple gauze that Lucia was carrying, Arthur slowly withdrew his gaze. He leaned back against the railing of the balcony and closed his eyes.
