She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 392

Maybe Spencer was right. Knowing that he was a bone marrow donor, she was really relieved for her son.

Ignoring Spencer, Lucia answered the phone. After a few words, she hung up the phone and turned to leave, clearly treating Spencer as air.

Although Spencer was unwilling to see that, he didn't stop her but just shouted at Lucia who was turning around,

"Lucia, remember, cooperate with me. As soon as Arthur leaves, I will donate bone marrow to Teddy immediately."

Lucia didn't look back, but the frozen movement for a few seconds meant she heard it.

Rushing back to the hospital, Lucia saw the person who called her just now. That was Eduard, and of course, Daphne was beside him.

In the ward, Eduard was talking to Arthur, asking him about Theodore's condition and telling him that they came to Chicago after they went to the Sea House in New York to inquire about it. Daphne was chatting with him gently because it was the first time she saw Theodore. She asked him his name, age, and what he liked to do.

"Eduard, Daphne, why are you here?" Lucia asked as soon as she entered the ward, with sweat dripping from her forehead.

"Lucia ! Are you going too far?!" Upon seeing Lucia, Eduard immediately "launched an attack" in annoyance.

Lucia lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, "Sorry, I just don't want you to worry..."

"We won't worry if you don't tell us?!" Eduard was still annoyed at Lucia's concealment. Although he thought about facing her calmly on the way, he couldn't help but get excited when they met. Weren't they friends?? she didn't know how to inform him when such a big thing happened? !

"I..." Lucia felt moved and guilty, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Lucia, let him scold you. I was scolded just now." Arthur walked over to Lucia and said softly to her, raising his hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Eduard also noticed that Lucia had run back. Upon closer inspection, she had lost a lot of weight. Under the distress, most of the unwillingness in his heart dissipated in an instant. He could only say,

"Lucia, if you really treat us as friends, don't hide it, okay?"

"Understood, not in the future." Lucia apologized honestly like a student.

"Hey..." Seeing Lucia being so "obedient", Eduard couldn't say anything, sighed and turned around to chat with Daphne and Theodore.

Daphne and Theodore said a few words before looking up and saying to Lucia, "Lucia, it must be hard for you..."

Daphne also had no experience of comforting others. She felt sorry for Lucia, so she could only say this simply, but Lucia received her sincere words.

"Thank you for coming to see Teddy." Lucia had been prone to cry lately. Looking at Daphne, her eyes turned red again.

"Teddy is so cute," Daphne said heartily. "And he's super smart. God will love him."

Daphne didn't dare to mention life and death, and expressed her heartfelt hope implicitly.

"Yeah." Lucia nodded slightly, burying her face in Arthur's shoulder, not wanting to let the tears flow.

Eduard saw that Lucia was sad, so he coughed and hinted Daphne to stop talking about Teddy's condition. Daphne took a deep look at Lucia and turned to coax Teddy, but her eyes were already red.

"Don't cry, Daphne," Theodore was a kind little angel. Seeing that Daphne's eyes were red, he knew that she was sad for him, so he comforted,

"I'm the bravest. Although sometimes I will cry, I will not be knocked down by the disease."

Theodore's words were really not like a six-year-old child can say, but he was indeed such a small doll, so it made people feel more distressed.

Daphne burst into tears when she heard this, and couldn't help but feel indignant why this sensible baby boy suffered from illness.

Eduard quickly grabbed Daphne's shoulders when he saw this, but even his own nose was sore. When he heard it again, Lucia, who was leaning against Arthur, was already choking. He sighed, and could only wish Teddy's condition had a turnaround.

Arthur hugged Lucia tighter than ever.

Theodore seemed to know that he was making his mother uncomfortable again, and he reached out to Lucia and said, "Mommy, I want a hug."

When Lucia heard the words, she quickly stopped choking, and only raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and walked over to hold him in her arms. She knew that Theodore was comforting herself in a fawning way.

After that, Eduard directly took Daphne to live in the hotel closest to the hospital. Because of the special situation, they did not go to visit Arthur's parents. Daphne accompanied Teddy for one night despite the jet lag. Eduard and Daphne met Edwin and Sophie in the hospital the next day. The Edwins were grateful for their care for Theodore, but also guilty that Teddy couldn't entertain them.

With Daphne and Eduard, Lucia's mood seemed much better, which Arthur noticed it. But he didn't know that although Lucia was glad they came to see Teddy, the reason was because Teddy would be saved.

The constant contradictory torture made Lucia very tired, but fortunately, Theodore's condition had not continued to deteriorate since the ulceration, as if God was giving Lucia a chance to breathe.

But in any case, Lucia knew that Spencer would still find her. The next night, Spencer called Lucia first and hung up after only one ring. Lucia noticed it and replied to Spencer on the pretext of going to the bathroom. After a while, Spencer sent over his plan.

Lucia took a while to digest his so-called "plan". After reading it, she had a bitter smile, which could never go away.

"Spencer, do you have the guts?" Lucia thought for a while and sent this message to Spencer. She was so annoyed that she pressed her fingers on the screen so hard that they seemed to bend it.

Spencer replied quickly, "Unless he sees it, is there any way to make him completely give up?"

"But I don't want to!" Lucia replied without hesitation.

"You promised to cooperate with me completely yesterday. If you want, you can find a way by yourself. Or as you said, you don't need my help, let Teddy wait for the next suitable match." Spencer replied very quickly, and it literally meant impatience, but he was waiting impatiently for a reply after he sent the message.

Lucia bit her lower lip, and flipped the information to the plan sent by Spencer. After a long time, she still replied with "okay". Her son was at stake, and she had to be cruel.
