She Is A CEO

Chapter 56 The Walking Dead



This year, Juliana's family also came to the Davies family for Christmas. With Juliana as the tomboy, the Davies family was naturally more lively.

Three days later, Lucia's cell phone was still off, and there was no response after entrusting people to search for her.

The Davies family took down their Christmas decorations to prepare for the new year, and Arthur took the time to visit his alma mater, visiting his former mentors and classmates as part of his purpose. The most important thing was to inquire about Lucia's whereabouts. Arthur used his mentor's relationship to retrieve Lucia's personal information from the administration, but regrettably, Lucia was living in school at that time. The only home contact address was only a rented apartment near the school, so the trail was broken.

The only thing that made Arthur feel relieved was that he met Nike Federer, Lucia's mentor. Nike told Arthur that Lucia had brought Theodore along to visit him on Christmas Eve and that she was doing well and did not seem to be under anyone's control, so Arthur was slightly relieved.

When the New Year came, it snowed heavily in New York. The snowflakes carried the hopes and aspirations of countless people for the new year and the future, but for Arthur, it was a day of worries.

Lucia was still out of touch.

During this time, Arthur also personally contacted Eduard. After all, he was Lucia's boss. But to Arthur's surprise, even Eduard can not contact Lucia. Worry, suspicion, and all kinds of complex emotions were lurking in Arthur's smile when facing his family. No one knew when it will explode.

Once the New Year's revelry was over, the whole New York was back to its usual busy and fast pace. Only some children were unwilling to leave the holidays and wore New Year's caps, which reminded people of the old year that has just passed.

The plan was to bring Lucia and Theodore home to introduce them to their parents and brothers and spend the first Christmas and New Year with them, but in the end, all Arthur's hopes were dashed. Juliana's family also said goodbye at this time. Although Juliana was careless, she also found the unusual in Arthur. Helplessly, she asked him but gained no answer, and finally had to follow her family to leave. The Davies family mansion had returned to its usual quietness. As soon as the company started to operate normally, Edwin also got busy and the brothers started to plan their trip back home. According to Arthur's information, Lucia did not submit any resignation report to Jibillion Inc, which meant she will definitely go back to work after the holidays and he will be able to see her again!

When discussing the return trip, Sophie proposed to accompany Arthur back home again, back to Athegate. The future was unpredictable. She really worried about Arthur. Of course, she would miss her lovely grandson. Although Edwin was reluctant, he also knew that this was the best way. The Davies family brothers said goodbye to their father and returned to different cities where their careers were. Because Arthur often had to travel between Ategate and USA, he had long been accustomed to the flight of more than ten hours, but this time, every minute was suffering for him in the hope that the plane would land quickly so he could see Lucia and Theodore.

Sophie sensed Arthur's thoughts and could only sigh.

Finally, at the end of the night, the flight from New York to Athegate landed smoothly.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

As soon as he left the airport, Arthur said to Jan, "Jan, drive my mom home and let her rest first. I'm going to go to Lucia's house."

Sophie said, "Arthur, I will go with you."

If he got to Lucia's house and found the lights were out, Sophie wondered if Arthur will have a breakdown.

"No, Mom, you're tired from the flight. Go back and rest. I want to go by myself." Arthur said firmly.

Sophie looked at the light in Arthur's eyes and finally compromised. She knew that she couldn't actually rest until her son got word of Lucia.

So outside the airport, Arthur and Sophie split up, and he sped off in his car all the way to Lucia's house.

An hour or so later, Arthur's car parked outside of Lucia's house. Sitting in the car, Arthur never felt so nervous. He was actually afraid, afraid that no one would respond after he knocked the door, afraid that he could only face the room full of darkness after he opened the door. However, his hope to see Lucia and Theodore overcame everything. He took a deep breath and got out of the car.

Looking up, with just one glance, Arthur finally felt relieved because the windows of Lucia's house were shining with warm light.

She was home!

Arthur did not remember how he rushed upstairs. He only remembered his heartbeat like a drum when he knocked on Lucia's door. Arthur did not wait long. The door soon opened and Lucia's beautiful face entered Arthur's sight along with the warm light of the room.

"Lucia!" His body acted faster than the brain. Once the door opened, Arthur had reached out to pull Lucia into his arms, implying that he not only missed her so much but also vented out his depressed feelings that had been suppressed so long.

The moment he held Lucia in his arms, Arthur felt alive again. Indeed, during this period of time without news of Lucia, it was not too much to say that he was living like a walking dead.

"There you are." Lucia's voice was clear and pleasant. Arthur heard it but felt it uncharacteristically calm.

Arthur, who was emotional, did not notice this. He embraced Lucia and walked into the room, which was as warm as his heart was warmed.

"Will you let go of me first?" Lucia's voice remained faint. With her words, her hands braced herself on top of Arthur's chest and pushed him back slightly, silently pulling away the intimate distance between them.

This time, Arthur was perceived.

When looking at each other, Arthur's heart clenched with some disbelief.

"Lucia, what's wrong?" For a while, Arthur stared at Lucia and asked carefully.

Lucia turned her head toward the sofa and sat down, saying indifferently, "Sit down. I have something to say to you."

Lucia's words made it foreboding for Arthur. He went over and wanted to sit directly beside her and hug her, but Lucia moved to the side as soon as she saw him approaching, and the act of pulling him away could not have been more obvious.

"What's wrong!" The uneasiness in his heart annoyed Arthur, and he asked once more. His voice was cold and no longer as fiery as it was a moment ago.
