Chapter 623 Exhausted
When Lucia saw that Spencer wasn't moving, she raised her head and met his eyes that didn't hide his desire. Her eyes turned cold, and Lucia was furious. Without any hesitation, she lifted her foot and kicked Spencer's crotch. If it weren't for Spencer who had been on his guard, it was afraid it would be very hurtful.
He backed away from Lucia's attack, and Spencer broke out in a cold sweat. The woman wasn't kidding!
"Lucia, don't go too far!" Spencer shouted in exasperation.
"You're the one who's going too far!" Lucia stood up from the sofa. Her slender figure was concealing an arrogant and domineering aura. She glared at Spencer and shouted,
"If baby and I were to appear before the public at this time, we would be subjected to gossips and censures, and to sacrifice my baby's health and reputation for your own selfish desires. Spencer, aren't you overthinking it?!"
"I thought you said you don't live in someone else's mouth, but you're worried about gossips?" Spencer sneered sarcastically.
"I could leave it alone, but not baby," said Lucia coolly. "Anyway, the christening thing is impossible!"
"Then you'll be absent," Spencer continued with a sneer. "And I'll have Mr. and Mrs. Brown invite you over and send an invitation to your company. If you and baby don't show up, you'll be embarrassed. It's your choice."
Lucia bit her lip. She was threatened again. Her anger had reached a boiling point.
Spencer was extremely unhappy. Seeing Lucia as a dormant beast, he didn't say a word, so he dared to provoke her again,
"Are you afraid Arthur will see us happy as a family of three? Lucia, I'm telling you, even if you carry the coat that Arthur gave you every day, you won't be able to go back to him. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible so that you won't be depressed all the time. It makes me feel ridiculous!"
Hearing Spencer mention Arthur, Lucia's eyes grew even colder.
"Do you think they will come?" Spencer saw Lucia sulking. Instead, he smiled smugly. "When they come over and you don't show up at the christening, what will they do then? Lucia, don't be so selfish. Think about other people once in a while."
"Spencer!" Enraged, Lucia's eyes were icy cold. After shouting, she rushed toward Spencer without warning. If she didn't beat him up today, she wouldn't be Lucia!
Spencer managed to escape once but never again. In the blink of an eye, he was kicked to the ground by Lucia. In the next second, Lucia was kneeling on him. One of her knees was pressed against his wrist. Spencer's face turned pale from the pain.
"Spencer! Don't test my limits again and again!" With her fists raised high, Lucia glared at Spencer with murderous intent,
"Just because you have something on me doesn't mean I have to do whatever you want. I'm stuck here today for my son, for Poppy, not for you! If you push me too far, I'll drag you down with me!"
Lucia was born bright and beautiful, and in her rage, the glow in her was terrifying, but he couldn't take her eyes off of her. Spencer's chest and wrists were aching from the weight of her, but even so, he could not conceal the amazement in his eyes.
Sensing Spencer's strange gaze again and his eyes which wer filled with desire, as if he couldn't hear her, Lucia could no longer contain her anger and swung her fist down. As hers fist was about to punch Spencer in the face, he made a move that made Lucia freeze in shock.
Spencer could only hold one hand while the other was free. He wrapped his other hand around Lucia's waist and pulled her toward him. Lucia was caught off guard and fell on him. Touching each other, with her sweet smell, Spencer complied with the bottom of the desire to use some force.
She was stunned for a few seconds before Lucia realized what was happening. Her anger was instantly dissipated by the disgust. She abruptly pulled her hand back and pushed the ground. She used her strength to free herself from Spencer's arms and stood up. After she got up, Lucia's eyes were cold and she kept panting heavily. Her anger was building up and intensifying.
Spencer scrambled to his feet, took a few steps back from Lucia before she lost her mind again, and waited until he was sure it was safe to speak,
"I won't change my mind. Even if you resist, the christening will go on as usual. It's up to you whether you come or not!"
With that, Spencer turned and ran quickly, because Lucia was staring at him with murderous intent.
Even though Spencer was gone, Lucia could not calm her down. She slumped on the sofa and touched the soft coat. Looking down at the coat that Arthur had given her, Lucia took it into her arms, after burying her head in, the anger in the bottom of her heart slowly disappeared.
"Arthur, I can't help it..." Lucia murmured bitterly as she felt the softness of the coat against her skin, as if she were leaning against Arthur,
"How long will it take... how long will it take..."
Being strong-willed did not mean there was no weak moment. At this time, Lucia really felt very weak, very tired.
Just then, Jack's steady voice could be heard,Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Lucia, just hang in there. We'll find Jacob soon enough."
Lucia looked up and realized that Jack and the others were standing in front of her. They couldn't understand Lucia and Spencer's conversation, but they could feel Lucia's emotions.
"I know, but sometimes I get tired..." Lucia said with a wry smile.
"It doesn't matter. You have so many people around you to support you. When you are tired, stop and take a breath. Don't force yourself too much," Gene said with some heartache.
Lucia's wry smile deepened as she said helplessly, "At a time like this, I really want to go back to Arthur instead of holding the coat he gave me..."
Jack and several people saw that Lucia was so sad, looked one another with tacit understanding. And they all happened to have a same idea. That night, Arthur appeared as if out of nowhere in front of Lucia in the small building.
