She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 159

"Lucia asked you to fuck off. Didn't you get it?" Eduard went up to the second floor and spoke at the right time when Lucia and Arthur were in a stalemate.

Arthur was boiling with rage and misery at the moment. Eduard, who appeared suddenly, gave Arthur an outlet to vent his feelings.

"I've told you that it's the business between me and her. You are in no place to interfere!" Arthur stood up slowly and scolded Eduard coldly.

Eduard didn't respond. He just stared at Arthur and hinted to Arthur that he should think about Lucia. Arthur took the hint and turned to look at Lucia, only to see that the way she looked was the same as before. She sadly curled up and looked out of the window like a sculpture.

Seeing that Arthur had understood what he meant, Eduard turned around and walked downstairs first.

Arthur gazed at Lucia quietly. Eduard indicated with good intentions that whatever Arthur said was like rubbing salt into Lucia's wounds. Arthur got it, so he said softly, "Lucia, I'm leaving now."

Giving her some time to calm down was the only thing Arthur could do now.

Lucia didn't respond. Arthur clenched his fists to suppress his desire to stay. He looked at her again, frowned, and turned around to leave.

The sound of Arthur's footsteps died away at the bottom of the stairs. Only then did Lucia move and buried her face deeper into her knees.

"Don't blame me. The house is not soundproofed, so I heard what you just said..." When Arthur went downstairs and the two came to the living room, Eduard shrugged and said to Arthur.

"You believe me?" Seeing that Eduard's attitude towards him sharply differed from before, Arthur knew Eduard was convinced by his explanation, though Lucia thought it was just an excuse.

"I'm a man. I know this kind of thing very well. Besides, I have quite a lot of contacts with you, so I know you are a big drinker. I can't imagine how much alcohol you need to drink to make a drunken mistake..." Eduard actually had been listening to their conversation at the top of the stairs just now. To be honest, he did not think that Arthur was lying, especially when the person who had sex with Arthur was Juliana, that scheming woman!

Arthur's face turned solemn after he heard Eduard's words. He was glad that Eduard could understand him, but it seemed that Eduard was trying to imply something.

When Arthur kept silent, Eduard went on, "The point is whether Lucia believes you or not. She's right. Even if she forgives you, what about Juliana?"

"Julia is not that kind of person..." Eduard's implication was obvious, but Arthur didn't want to doubt Juliana. He could perceive Juliana's uneasiness after what happened a few hours ago.

But Arthur didn't know Juliana was no longer the good girl he had known. With evil intentions, Juliana just played victim with him to gain sympathy.

"That's why I called you downstairs just now," said Eduard, staring into Arthur's eyes "The priority is not to ask Lucia for forgiveness. Women had a lower tolerance for betrayal than me. Also, Lucia has been betrayed once. Now you come to Lucia and displayed a hesitant attitude. Even if you kneel down, I don't think you can win her heart back. The first thing you need to do is to solve the problem between you and Juliana. After you work out an agreement with Juliana, you will have good reasons to ask Lucia for forgiveness."

Eduard came up with a reasonable solution. Arthur knew what he said made sense after he calmed down a little bit.
