She Is A CEO

"No, I apologize for Arthur. He is to blame." Sophie continued, "Lucia, I hope you can understand sometimes he has no other choices."

Sophie implied something but Lucia could get it for a moment, and she could only smile reluctantly and say, "It's okay, Sophie. Even if he and I are not meant to be, Teddy is your grandson anyway." Theodore had been Sophie's concern, and when Sophie heard Lucia say that, she felt a lot more relieved, but felt sorry for Lucia at the same time.

"Lucia, no matter what, as long as you need help, just tell me. I will do my best to help." Sophie knew Lucia may never ask her for help, but she just wanted to make it up to Lucia somehow. "Thank you, Sophie," Lucia did not reject Sophie's kindness.

After Sophie asked something about Theodore and told Lucia to get some rest, she got up and said goodbye. Lucia sent Sophie downstairs and watched the car she got in slowly drive away, wondering what Sophie's implication meant.

In less than two days, Lucia understood why Sophie said Arthur had no other choices. Looking at the magazine cover, Lucia was stricken by sadness. She wanted to ask, "Did Arthur really have no other choices?"

Lucia rolled up the magazine and threw it in the trash. The magazine lying in the trash slowly unfolded again, and on the cover was the news of Arthur and Juliana's engagement, and the photo on the cover was of them snuggling and cutting the cake together at their engagement.

The reason for this farce should trace back to half a month ago.

Half a month ago, Juliana had been silently counting the time. A month had passed since she last faked having sex with Arthur at the party, and if she wasn't pregnant, her period should have arrived. Of course, Juliana would not walk up to Arthur and tell him she was pregnant without a plan; she patiently and carefully prepared to give Arthur a surprise.

The first few days, Juliana showed anxiety. Arthur did not communicate with her a lot. The two tried to avoid each other to not have intimate contact, even if they live under the same roof. But those days, Juliana walked to Arthur from time to time, wanting to say something but withholding it.

One day Arthur couldn't help asking Juliana, "Julia, is there something wrong with you?"

This was the third time that Juliana had entered the office and handed the documents to him and stood in front of his desk for a while instead of going out immediately.

"No, I am fine..." Juliana was full of panic and looked at Arthur hesitantly for a while before affirming. "I am really fine!"

After she finished speaking, she walked out of the office, not giving Arthur a chance to ask more.

Arthur was suspicious. Instead of asking Juliana again, he called Kyle to his office to ask questions, not knowing that Juliana was happy about this.

"Kyle, has Julia done anything unusual in the last few days?"

"Unusual?" Kyle frowned, thought hard for a while, and then replied, "Yep, she looks fidgety every day, and always stares at the calendar on her phone. I asked her what was going on but she didn't tell me." "How many days has she acted like that?" Arthur asked again.

"It's been a few days," Kyle answered honestly.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier!" Arthur guessed that something must have happened to Juliana and rebuked Kyle for not doing his duty.

"Mr. Davies..." Kyle was aggrieved. He did not expect Mr. Davies would care so much.

"Okay, you go out, and if you find Julia goes out alone, you follow her and check it out." Arthur gave a new order.

Kyle led the way out, and coincidentally, just as he closed the office door, he saw Juliana pick up her bag and prepare to leave, so he hurriedly went after her and asked her.

"Miss Knight, where are you going?"

Juliana said she was hungry and wanted to go eat something. After she left, Kyle raised his hand and glanced at his watch, it was only ten in the morning, just two hours past breakfast. Why was she hungry too so soon?

Without further hesitation, Kyle followed Juliana quietly, but he didn't know Juliana had overheard his conversation with Arthur and went out deliberately.

Juliana led Kyle to a drugstore near Davonnis Corp, and after she went in, she bought some things and left. Then Kyle walked in and asked the shopkeeper what Juliana had bought. The shopkeeper did not answer directly but pointed to an invoice on the table, which was also left by Juliana deliberately.

Kyle picked up the invoice, read it and drew a cold breath, and called Arthur in a hurry.

"Mr. Davies, I know the reason why Miss Knight is distracted!" Kyle opened his mouth and said.

"Say it!" Arthur didn't like the way Kyle reported to him.

"Just now you asked me to keep an eye on Miss Knight, and as soon as I left the office I saw her leaving, so I followed her out to a drugstore near the office." Kyle was interrupted by Arthur just as he was speaking.

"What did she buy?!" Arthur subconsciously thought Juliana was not feeling well and did not dare to tell him, so he asked anxiously.

"This..." Kyle hesitated. It was something he really had some trouble saying.

"What the hell!" Arthur asked.

"It's a pregnancy test!" Taking a deep breath, Kyle finally spoke it.

Arthur on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time.

Kyle only heard something over there that seemed to fall on the ground with a harsh sound, so he cautiously asked, "What else can I do ...?"

"Where did Julia go after she bought her medicine?" Arthur finally spoke.

"She went back to the office." Kyle hung up the phone just as he finished speaking. And he put away his phone and the invoice and headed toward the office as well.

On the top floor of Davonnis Corp, Arthur, the president of Davonnis Corp, who had always been calm and unrestrained, accidentally broke the cup on the table for the first time. He knew what it meant when Juliana went to buy a pregnancy test. Without hesitation, Arthur rose to his feet, walked out of the office, and headed to Juliana.

He hoped it would never happen!
