Arthur slowly turned around. He frowned when he saw Lucia leaning against Spencer, but said quietly,
"When it should be yours, it will always be yours. When it will never be yours, it will never be yours all your life."
Arthur's words carried so much meaning that Spencer was about to question what he meant when Lucia tightened her grip on his ribs. He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.
Arthur only said that, so he didn't look Spencer in the eye for more than half a second before turning to leave. Eduard and the others had no choice but to leave with him. Daphne looked at Lucia and followed them out after feeling awkward for a few seconds.
As soon as Arthur and the others left, Spencer could no longer control the expression on his face. He quickly grabbed Lucia's wrist backhand and wailed,
"Lucia, let go!"
Lucia glared at Spencer and then let go, not to spare him, but to disgust him.
"Tsk..." Even though Lucia let go, Spencer could feel the pain. However, he knew that he had stepped on too many minefields just now, so he didn't dare to blame her for hitting him. Instead, he said,
"Lucia, I know you're angry, but I'm even angrier when I see Arthur here. Do you have any idea how that makes me feel?"
"No," said Lucia coldly, and she sat down, ignoring Spencer.
Spencer frowned helplessly and can only say, "OK, I do not force you to understand, but you have to eat the food first."
Speaking of food... Lucia glanced at Spencer's exquisite box of food and the delicious-looking food inside. She swept them aside, then moved Eduard's takeaway back to its place, picked up her chopsticks, and ate slowly.
"You!" Spencer was infuriated by Lucia's ungrateful gesture, but she didn't even look at him. He could only watch as Lucia slowly finished the fast food that Eduard had brought over.
As they left the office, Kane noticed that Nia was still in the seat, and he thought of something, which made him frown.
This woman was not simple.
As the four people entered the elevator, Kane said to Daphne, "Daphne, keep an eye on Mr. Davidson."
"Why?" Said Daphne, still in the sullen mood for a moment.
"It's no coincidence that Spencer showed up at this time," Kane said. "I'm almost certain he was notified," said Kane.
"Nia?" Daphne immediately understood.
Kane nodded. Eduard, who was next to him, immediately added, "I think she's changed a lot since she came to Webbex Group with Lucia. She used to be very hard-working and get along well with her colleagues, but for some reason, she's even giving Daphne a hard time. I warned her myself last time, and she's still doing it."
"I caught her giving Daphne a hard time a couple of times," said Kane.
At this point, Daphne had nothing to hide, so she said to them, "Nia has always believed that I became an assistant because of my relation with Lucia. Although she is right to think that, I am really working hard, studying, and I have never thought of using my relation with Lucia to slack off..."
At the end, Daphne lowered her head in grievance, and Eduard put an arm around her shoulder and said, "It's okay. She's just jealous."
"People are unpredictable," said Arthur, who had been quiet the whole time. "If Nia didn't have any ambition, she wouldn't have left Eduard's company and chosen to come here. Her reason was to admire Lucia's abilities, but Jibillion was her comfort zone that she was already used to. Judging by her behavior toward Daphne, it's not something a big-hearted person would do."
"One more thing. I've been through the Luxwell Investment case from the ground up. The documents Noah submitted to Nia were not problematic, but when it came to Lucia, there was a discrepancy. She was the only one who had access to the documents, and I suspected that she was behind it, but there was no evidence of that," Kane said after some thought.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
"Did you talk to her?" Arthur asked.
"I tried once, but she wouldn't tell me," Kane replied.
"Let's see how she behaves after that. If it's really her, she must have been in contact with the head of Luxwell or the leather factory. You can send someone to keep an eye on her for a few days and find out," Arthur suggested.
"All right, I'll ask two guys to keep an eye on her," Kane nodded.
Listening to their conversation, Daphne couldn't help but sigh. "I thought Lucia would be alright after winning back the group, but I didn't expect so much trouble..."
Arthur lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly. If he could have stayed by Lucia's side, he would have saved her from these things...
As Arthur's expression dimmed, Eduard and Kane looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
After Arthur and the others left, Lucia also finished her dinner. To be honest, Eduard's dinner was not exquisite, and it was cold, but she just felt that it was delicious. Besides, Arthur had solved her biggest problem. Now it dawned on her that she knew what she was going to do next.
Spencer held his breath until Lucia finished her dinner, then asked her, "Lucia, let's go home?"
Lucia wanted to rest, but she wasn't going home with Spencer. She opened the file, looked at it, and said,
"You go first. I'll wait a little longer."
How cunning Spencer was. How could he not see that this was Lucia's excuse, but he could not force her to do anything. In the end, he could only reluctantly leave.
As soon as he got out of the office, Spencer saw Nia in the assistant seat with her bag ready to leave. Nia also saw Spencer. Their eyes met, and it was a little subtle. Spencer walked to the assistant seat and smiled gently. "Thank you for calling me just now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that Arthur dared to come to here."
It turned out that Kane was right. Nia was the one who told Spencer to come, but Nia's goal wasn't achieved because Spencer came too late.
Pretending to be flattered, Nia lowered her gaze and replied, "Mr. Davies, you're welcome. You're Lucia's fiancé and the future leader of the Group. I should have informed you."
Upon hearing that, Spencer raised his eyebrows. He was somewhat impressed with Nia. In the past, he had never paid special attention to the assistant beside Lucia. He had thought that she was dull and straightforward, but he didn't expect her to be quite discerning.
