She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 349

Lucia didn't respond because she could see that Spencer was trying to stand out, so she just stared at him coldly.

Not responding was the best way to fight back.

Arthur also sensed Spencer's intention. He was more calm than Lucia. After glancing at Spencer, he gently pulled Lucia behind him, no longer making contact with him. And he seemed to treat Spencer as transparent.

Spencer sneered and stared at Arthur to stimulate him,

"Why keep silent? Arthur, that's not your style. Why aren't you that ruthless about leaking photos on purpose?"

Photos?

Lucia didn't know what Spencer was referring to so she looked up at Arthur.

Arthur's originally sideways face slowly turned to Spencer. His eagle-like eyes flashed with a trace of indifference. He glanced at Spencer again, without saying a word. The cold eyes had made his meaning clear.

What? Was he jealous?

Spencer gritted his back molars. His apparent calmness almost broke, and the most feared adversary he faced was the one who kept silent and disdained.

"Arthur, don't you even dare to speak?" Regaining his sanity, Spencer continued to provoke Arthur.

Eduard, who had just seen Spencer come in, rush over to support.

Eduard hated Spencer as much as Arthur.

"Coming to the rescue?" Spencer sneered at Eduard.

Daphne noticed that the atmosphere was different. Although she didn't know who Spencer was, seeing that Lucia was unhappy, she hurried to her side and held her hand, staring at Spencer with big eyes unceremoniously.

Spencer was very good at picking a target. When he saw that there was an innocent young woman next to Eduard, who was very close to Lucia, he immediately turned his target to her,

"Mr. Burton, are you tired of eating fish and meat? Do you want to try this little cauliflower?"

Spencer was already disgusted by Lucia anyway so he wouldn't care about his inappropriate remarks as long as it evoked her reaction.

No matter how they were attacked, Lucia and Arthur were able to calm themselves. However, Lucia was no longer silent when she heard Spencer's sarcastic remarks against Daphne.

"Spencer, keep your mouth clean! Don't think you can be arrogant if Arthur and I don't say anything. I don't care what happens on the 5th of next month, but right now, you're nothing to me!"

Lucia protected Daphne, with a cold light bursting out from her pupils. When the coldness approached Spencer, there was no trace of emotion in what she said.

"Lucia, you have to stay by my side for the rest of your life. Why do you have to be so aggressive? We will be a couple sleeping in the same bed in the future." Finally, Lucia was forced to speak out. Spencer hid his pride and chose words that can stimulate Arthur

Arthur raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He was angry, took a step forward and grabbed Spencer's tie directly. This action immediately attracted the attention of other guests, and the discussion suddenly erupted.

"Spencer, speak with respect! Lucia is my woman. She always is!"

Looking directly at Spencer, Arthur warned coldly, defending his mate like a lion.

Being grabbed by his tie, Spencer was not annoyed but happy. All he wanted was for Arthur to lose his mind.

With a sneer, Spencer said, "Don't be too confident. Ask Lucia if she can give up her love for Esmae. If not, then she is my woman, not yours!"

"Spencer, are you still a man? Apart from taking advantage of other people's weaknesses, do you dare to fight me openly?" Arthur snapped, being furious.

"Arthur, don't fall for his trap. He is deliberately provoking you." Seeing that Arthur lost his mind, and more and more people gathered around him, Lucia, who was told by Arthur not to get angry when he came, was now the calmest. She stepped forward and took Arthur's arm to persuade him.

Arthur found that Spencer's eyes were full of pride, so he quickly released the hand that was holding him. But the next second, Spencer raised his hand and clasped his wrist, still looking like Arthur was holding him.

"Arthur, don't show weakness. Aren't you very good? You have an excellent IQ since childhood, a genius, a prodigy. What titles have you never won? What kind of praises have you never enjoyed? Isn't that alright?"

Spencer was infuriating and continued to provoke. He just wanted to make things worse.

"Arthur!" Seeing Arthur's stern expression, Lucia directly reached out and clasped Spencer's wrist. With a clever squeeze, he let go of his hand. Then Lucia called Arthur's name, leaned herself into his arms, and stroked his chest with her hands, trying to quell his anger.

Arthur stared at Spencer, until Lucia's voice entered his ears before he lowered his head to look at her. The anger in Arthur's eyes slowly subsided when he touched the pair of eyes.

"Lucia, I..." Arthur realized he had lost his mind.

"It's okay," Lucia quickly comforted, "Don't be angry. This will fit in exactly with his wishes. You can see that the people around you have already started talking. Spencer is just trying to make things worse."

"I know, but..." Arthur had always been a sensible person since he was a child, but when it came to Lucia, he was particularly impulsive, even if it had extremely bad consequences.

"Calm down. It's just a dog barking. Pretend you don't hear it." Lucia reassured Arthur and fought back at Spencer with words.

Hearing this, Spencer frowned. The tingling sensation from his wrist had not subsided. His anger suddenly ignited because of Lucia's words. He glared at Lucia fiercely and said sharply,

"Lucia, should you correct your posture? Don't wantonly insult me just because I like you. My patience is limited!"

Lucia patted Arthur's chest with her palm, and turned her head coldly. There was nothing but indifference and disgust in her eyes. She responded coldly,

"Sorry, I'm not relying that you like me. I'm relying that I'm Esmae's goddaughter. Don't you just fear that?"

Spencer gritted his teeth, but couldn't refute, because he loved Lucia, but he also loved her status as Esmae's goddaughter.

"Do you want to make things worse?" Lucia saw that Arthur gradually calmed down, and then turned to face Spencer and warned,

"If you make things worse now, are you not afraid that after the 5th, things will not develop as you expect? Then you will become a joke instead?"
