Kyle looked at Arthur's back and couldn't say anything to comfort him. He only hoped that the misunderstanding between Arthur and Lucia would disappear as soon as possible so that Arthur, who had always been cold and arrogant, would no longer be troubled.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

When the development project was relaunched, Davonnis Corp received full compensation from its suppliers and guaranteed the future of the project. In this game, Spencer lost, so to speak, the compensation he eventually paid Arthur through his suppliers was many times more than the project's actual losses.

Spencer's mood hit rock bottom.

Arthur was not easy to deal with. He had always known that better than anyone else, but the last time he came home to blame himself, and he was really deceived by him. He thought that he had no other choice, but he did not expect that he would be able to control the situation and turn things around. Every time he thought of this, Spencer would be angry, but his troubles did not stop.

Just two days after the development project's compensation was paid out, Spencer was feeling bad about his loss, which was exacerbated by a call from his father, Erik.

"Spencer, something's happened to our company."

"Dad, what's wrong?" Spencer asked, frowning and his heart pounding.

"Didn't the Brown family give us a couple of deals last month? I thought the profits were good, so..." Erik hesitated. Maybe he was scared.

"Dad! Did you fall off the wagon in the middle of the shipment?!" Spencer stood up in excitement at his father's words.

"I thought that the Brown family would be biased towards us, so I thought the transportation would be less strict, but I didn't expect to be discovered as soon as I made a move," Erik said hesitantly. "By whom? The captain or the crew?" Spencer asked immediately. If it was one of those people, it was not too late for him to do something about it.

"No..." Erik's voice sounded timid. It was the first time he had ever spoken to Spencer in that tone.

"Who is it?!" Spencer's bad feeling grew stronger and stronger, and he immediately pressed.

"It's the Brown family's lady, Helena," Erik said after a moment's silence.

"It's her!" Spencer fell on the couch, sweating profusely. It was Helena!

"I didn't expect Helena to get on the boat, and she kept quiet during the voyage. When our men did it, she caught us red-handed... Spencer, do something." Erik was also anxious.

"What am I supposed to do?" Spencer complained and was exasperated by his father's behavior,

"Dad, how could you be so stupid! These deals are Ms. Wilson gave it to us herself, and the Brown family is known for their rigor. How could you do something like this? Now that her daughter has caught you red-handed, what do you want me to do?!"

Erik choked on his son's complaint, but now it was too late to regret it. He relented and said to his son,

"Spencer, ask Lucia to beg for mercy. You can say it was a mistake by one of our men, and let Ms. Wilson push Helena to let it go. Now she's staying on the boat and wants to report it to the authorities. Spencer, our company is just getting better, and we can't afford to make any mistakes now."

Spencer was full of anger. His relationship with Lucia was at its most tense right now. Recently, he had been using Nia to provoke her. If he begged her now, it would be self-defeating. Furthermore, she might not help him.

"Spencer, I know I'm wrong this time, so please beg Lucia," Erik continued when his son didn't say anything.

Hearing his proud father beg him softly, Spencer couldn't bear to say no. It was a long shot, but he answered, "You keep Helena calm, and I'll go talk to Lucia."

"Okay, okay, Lucia is pregnant, and she needs your help," Erik urged.

Spencer frowned. His father had really brought up his sore spot. He didn't care much for Lucia now, and he was probably going to be rejected when he saw her later. Thinking about this, Spencer was worried, but he comforted his father and went to the Webbex Group.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lucia had just finished her lunch. Recently, Victor was in charge of her own food. She was very grateful to him for his effort. She didn't know where Victor got the tradition of taking care of pregnant women's food. Every day, he brought many different tonic. Lucia had a kind of illusion that her belly seemed to have swollen up.

However, the food he brought was delicious and Lucia was in a much better mood, but soon her good mood was broken.

"Ms. Webb, Mr. Davies is here." Nia didn't dare go into Lucia's office after she had been reprimanded the last time, so she called the landline.

"What does he want? You or me?" Lucia said sarcastically.

Nia frowned and looked at Spencer who was beside her. In a gentle voice, she pretended to be wronged and said, "Naturally, he's here to look for you. I'll bring him over now."

"Yeah," Lucia replied and hung up. A minute later, Spencer and Nia pushed the door open. She was sitting behind her desk, staring at them coldly.

"You can get out of here." Nia couldn't be there because he was here to plead for her, so when he walked into the office, Spencer said to her.

Nia saw Spencer's serious expression and knew that he must have something important to discuss with Lucia, so she turned to leave, but the next second, she was stopped by Lucia. "Why? Stay here and listen to what Mr. Davies wants to discuss with me."

Lucia said coldly.

Nia turned to Spencer in embarrassment, and Spencer frowned and said to Lucia,

"Lucia, it's not convenient for us to talk about things as a couple when there is an outsider."

"Who's married to you?" Lucia raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "Besides, she's not an outsider. If she doesn't stay, then you shouldn't talk about things you want to say." Lucia thought it was funny that Spencer thought she didn't know?

"Lucia, don't put me on the spot..." Spencer said to Lucia.

"Let her stay," said Lucia.

Knowing that Lucia was going to embarrass him, Spencer said to Nia, "Go sit on the couch and don't talk, okay?"

"Okay." Realizing that it was gonna to be severe, Nia nervously sat down on the couch and lowered her head to keep quiet.

Lucia smiled and slowly shifted her gaze from Nia to Spencer and said,

"Yes, what is it?"
