She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 381

Helena and Otis walked at the back. Watching Lucia mourning beside Theodore, she felt so sad that she couldn't help reaching out and holding Otis's hand.

Otis turned his head and saw Helena frowning slightly. Her eyes were full of distress, and he couldn't help but hold her back tightly.

Back in the ward, after putting Theodore back on the bed, Lucia sat next to him and stared at him blankly. And even when the nurse came to treat his festering wound, she didn't leave for half a minute.

"Arthur, you can't collapse." In the quiet ward, Otis pulled Arthur to his side and said to him. Lucia's mental state was really bad right now, and the soft look made people feel like she was going to fall any time, so Otis needed his brother to be stronger.

"I know." Arthur nodded in response. He couldn't and didn't dare to let his emotions overflow, because once he broke down, it was really difficult to recover. And Lucia and Teddy needed him.

Sophie listened to Arthur and Otis' words, and looked at Lucia distressedly. After hesitating for a while, she picked up the food box she brought, walked to her side and said softly,

"Lucia, would you like something to eat?"

Lucia turned her head slowly when she heard Sophie's voice. She shook her head and said frankly, "Sophie, can you let Arthur eat? I really can't eat..."

Teddy was sleeping. She wanted him to wake up, but at the same time she was afraid that he would wake up. Her mind was going back and forth and complicated. Lucia was completely depressed.

Sophie looked at Arthur in embarrassment, only to see Arthur shaking his head to her helplessly. She could only sigh and put the food box back in its place.

"Arthur, I'm going to tell my mom about this right away," Helena said to Arthur at this point.

"I know. I never doubted Ms. Wilson's concern for Teddy," Arthur said understandingly.

Helena nodded to him and went out to make a phone call. Within half an hour, Esmae arrived at the hospital. Coincidentally, Edwin, who was on his way, met her in the lobby.

Although they didn't want to communicate too much with each other, they were not strangers after all. After a few seconds of embarrassment, Edwin spoke up first,

"You heard the news too?"

Esmae glanced sideways at Edwin, then nodded slightly after hesitating for a moment.

Edwin was not surprised by her indifference, but he still said what he had always wanted to say,

"Esmae, thank you for taking care of Teddy. I know it's right to stand in your position, because you love Lucia. But for the Davis family, your care for Teddy is kindness. Thank you."

"Stop talking about these polite words," Esmae finally said so, but did not compromise at all, "Be concerned about Teddy's condition first."

Edwin's offer of befriending was rejected, but he wasn't annoyed, because Esmae was that kind of person.
