My Mommy Is A CEO

Arthur went through his own process, still kneeling on one knee, holding the pale white lilium in front of Lucia’s eyes, and said seriously,

“Lucia, I believe you should feel something after this time. I don’t just want to be your friend. We have a connection more special than others. Of course, that’s not what made me fall for you. I don’t know how to express that feeling. I just really want to be around you. It’s reassuring for me to see you smile. This feeling should be called ‘like’, so…”

Arthur conveyed his true feelings to Lucia. Although Lucia was quite frightened and shyly lowered her eyes, afraid to look at Arthur directly, her sharp ears were high and she listened to every word he said carefully.

She was even slightly relieved that Arthur did not immediately raise his feelings for her to the level of “love”, just “like”. It was a natural and simple wanting to be close to her, to be intimate with her.

Such a confession was more true and tender to Lucia, who had suffered emotional trauma. They were much more exciting than a sudden “I love you”.

However, as Lucia listened carefully to Arthur and waited for him to finish saying his words after so, Arthur’s next words made Lucia’s heart race to a shudder.

“So… Please marry me!” That was Arthur’s last confession.

If Lucia had a drink in her mouth, she would have sprayed Arthur in the face.

This guy! That was a little jumpy, wasn’t it?

She had been thinking that he was expressing his feelings in the way he wanted and that she could understand the progression. She had no idea that his final decision would be to marry her. In addition to the shock, Lucia now secretly admired Arthur’s magical way of thinking.

“You asked me to marry you at your first confession?” After the shock, Lucia couldn’t help but glared at him and complained.

No, it was not a confession anymore! It was a proposal, okay?

The blush on Lucia’s face deepened as she thought of this.

Lucia’s words made Arthur frown. To him, Lucia’s reaction was bizarre, so he said.

“The reason I’m dating you is that I want to marry you… Do you want me to go into a relationship with just a try?”

Lucia was dumbfounded when she heard this. Arthur was so straight!

As she thought about Arthur’s thoughts, she burst out laughing.

This guy…

“What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?” After making such a solemn confession, Lucia laughed out loud. Arthur did not know why, but he felt a little unhappy. Didn’t she agree? Was his confession that funny?

Arthur, who was regarded as a god by countless women, and was regarded as the most popular and most desirable man for women to marry, thought bitterly at this time.

“I was not laughing at you…”Lucia saw Arthur’s expression and quickly explained. His frankness also relieved Lucia’s tension to some extent. At last she dropped her legs, which had shrunk to the sofa in fright, reached out and took the lilium, and said.

“Arthur, I really don’t mean to laugh at you, but it seems that most people don’t say ‘please marry me’ so directly when they confess. Although what you said is not wrong. If we are serious together, the purpose is to be together for life. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Let’s hang out first. The deeper the relationship, the more we’ll end up together, won’t we?”

Lucia patiently explained her feelings to Arthur.

Arthur’s face relaxed at Lucia’s words. As long as she wasn’t rejecting him, he was fine with it. Looking at the lilium in Lucia’s hand, he unconsciously smiled.

“Are you ready to get up?” Seeing Arthur kneeling on the ground and giggling, Lucia was amused and reminded him.

“You haven’t said yes yet.” Arthur had one-track mind.

“Okay, yes, I do. I’ll go out with you, okay?” Lucia felt as if she were trying to coax a child. She made several promises before Arthur stood up and sat down beside her.

Lucia felt the sofa beside her sink. Arthur was already sitting next to her, and they were very close. Suddenly Lucia realized that she had said yes.

She wanted to let nature take its course, but Arthur just gave her a little push, and she naturally said yes, as if it were the most reasonable response.

Perhaps she was no less attracted to him than he was to her.

Lucia smiled and thought, holding the thin rod of the lilium.

While Lucia was immersed in the subtle sweet feeling, Arthur, who was sitting beside her, suddenly said, “What’s next?”

Lucia turned her head and looked at Arthur quizzically. “What next?”

“Aren’t we already in a relationship? And then what do we do?” Arthur asked bluntly.

“…” Hearing Arthur’s question, Lucia was speechless.

Lucia looked at Arthur, and Arthur stared back at Lucia. They stared at each other for a while, and then they looked away at the same time. The delicate ambiguity flowed freely in the air, burning both faces.

The room was silent. This was a special opportunity Sophie created for Lucia and Arthur to be alone. But now the two of them, who were almost equally blank in terms of relationship, were unable to get used to it.

Lucia dropped her eyes and Arthur reached up and took her hand. He looked at the red mark on her wrist and noticed the red mark had faded a lot. Then he said.

“The strangulation marks are almost gone. It seems that we don’t need ice.”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Lucia laughed and turned to Arthur. “It’s not that serious, is it?”

“It looks serious to me.” Arthur looked Lucia in the eye and said carefully.

Lucia blushed, thinking that this guy was always unconsciously saying something exciting, but he said it so naturally that she was unable to laugh at him.

Arthur stared at the red glow on Lucia’s face for a moment. Then he lowered his head slightly and kissed her lips. He had wanted to do this for a long time.

Lucia was clearly surprised by the sudden kiss. As his face moved towards her, she made a conscious attempt to step back, but then saw Arthur close his eyes and she stopped there.

Arthur was not the only one looking forward to further contact.

After a gentle kiss, Arthur left Lucia’s lips, but his eyes still stared at her red lips, feeling that he wanted more. And as if he were afraid that she would not be satisfied, he looked into Lucia’s eyes and asked secretly with his eyes, “how is it?”

Arthur’s eyes were really out of character and age. He looked like a boy who kissed his girlfriend for the first time and didn’t know what to do. Lucia couldn’t help smiling.

Holding out her hand, Lucia said mischievously to Arthur, “Well, I would appreciate your guidance in our relationship in the future.”

Arthur smiled gently, reached back for Lucia’s hand, and said, “Me, too.”
