Chapter 732 Disdainful Gossip

Seeing Helena, who had always been willful and tenacious, burst into tears, Otis felt his heart ache. He held her tightly in his arms and said sadly,

"Helena, I'm sorry."

"I... I thought... you weren't that fast..." Helena said intermittently as she cried.

"To see you, I have to fly," Otis said with a soft kiss on Helena's forehead.

Helena watched Otis from the corner of her eyes for a long time before the sound of her crying rang out again. She buried herself in Otis's arms, venting all her grievances, missing, and helplessness. Holding Helena, Otis gently patted her back and nodded to Shawn, who opened the door next door to check on her, thanking him for his kindness.

Shawn nodded back. He glanced at his sister, smiled, closed the door and headed back to his room.

Long time no see, Helena and Otis of course had a lot to say, but no matter how fast she spoke, she can not finish her miss for him. There were a lot of things happened.

Otis smiled and listened to Helena's chatter. He had infinite patience with Helena.

After a brief moment of intimacy, Helena leaned over Otis and told him what she and Shawn were up to. Otis nodded and said,Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"We really should investigate it. The faster we move, the better it will be for Lucia and Arthur."

"Yes," Helena said seriously, "We don't have an exact pattern yet, but we're getting something. Shawn and I are going to do everything we can to get to the bottom of it."

When Helena's eyes sparkled and she wanted to get to the bottom of what had happened, Otis smiled indulgently and whispered in her ear,

"Looks like you're still vigorous..."

"Of course I am... ?!" Helena was originally excited to reply. It wasn't until Otis bit her earlobe that she looked up and realized that his eyes were full of teasing. Her face instantly turned red like a rosy cloud. Otis smiled and held Helena in his arms.

As Shawn said, they would stay here for 48 hours. After dinner, Shawn said he would finish the investigation tomorrow and the day after, and Helena could spend more time with Otis.

"Shawn, thank you." Otis didn't hide his gratitude to Shawn. He didn't push it away. He missed Helena so much.

"No problem," said Shawn blandly. "Just be nice to my sister."

Otis and Helena smiled at each other.

In the country, since the official launch of the development plan, Arthur had temporarily focused all his energy on the project. Everything was difficult at first. He wanted to make sure that the infrastructure work was flawless from the beginning, so for nearly half a month, he would go to the construction site every day.

But to Spencer's surprise, after the opening ceremony, Lucia no longer had any contact with Arthur. Every day, she was shuttling back and forth between the company and the small building. It seemed that she had completely forgotten Arthur's existence. Spencer wasn't complacent. He always thought Lucia was up to something, but he couldn't make heads or tails of it.

The person who had the most contact with Arthur was Nia.

The night after the opening ceremony, after Nia and Jacob had sex, he made a suggestion that Nia didn't know much about.

"Nia, from tomorrow onwards, no matter what happens, you'll find something to do even if you have nothing to do. You'll follow Arthur around and keep a high profile so that everyone around you will notice." "Why?" Nia leaned into Jacob's arms and asked, "We haven't figured out what their true purpose is yet. I thought you'd tell me to be careful not to get too close to Arthur."

Nia was a little afraid in her heart. When she was with Arthur, she was under a lot of pressure. That man seemed gentle, but his actions were intimidating and she would reveal her fear if she wasn't careful. "That's why we have to figure it out, isn't it? How can we know without contact?" Jacob said nonchalantly.

"I am afraid I might say something wrong..." Nia was still a little defensive.

"No," Jacob comforted. "When you are with Arthur, you only bring up business. The rest of the questions are cursory. Now, the public's attitude toward Lucia is very unfriendly. The more times you appear in public with Arthur, the more suspicion the media will have of her."

"That being said..."

"Be good and listen to me," Jacob said, as if giving a gentle order.

Nia, on the other hand, can only nod.

As a result, there was a scene where Nia was constantly running behind Arthur on construction sites. Nia didn't know anything about infrastructure work, but she was still trying to pretend that she cared. Sure enough, within a few days, some reporters noticed that Nia and Arthur were in constant contact, and Lucia was nowhere to be seen, so they began to speculate that Arthur might have infidelity. In the gossip magazines, people frequently hoped Lucia could return to the family and serve both the husband and the child.

"How they manage to write..." chucking a gossip magazine on the coffee table, Lucia laughed.

Kane glanced at the magazine and asked, "Why do you suddenly care about all this nonsense?"

Lucia had always been fearless for the gossip.

"Just to see how much control Spencer has over the media."

"Lucia, have you ever thought about using the power of the media..."

Lucia interrupted Kane before he could finish his words.

"No, they can say whatever they want. I was cornered by the media back then. I won't use its power again." Lucia's eyes darkened as she spoke.

"Lucia..." Kane looked into Lucia's eyes as if something had stopped him and he spoke in broken sentences,

"It's been seven years..."

"Yes, it's been seven years..." Lucia knew what Kane was thinking. She smiled wryly,

"From desperately trying to get revenge on Poppy to getting revenge on her, no one knows what fate will write until the very end."

"At least you met Arthur." Kane didn't know how to console Lucia, but he had to warn her, and he had to tell her.

Arthur's name was like a drop of water, dripping on the lake of Lucia's heart, quietly rippling.

She smiled, indeed... At least she met Arthur.

Athegate, the city, may seem calm, but there was something fishy about it. Spencer had his subordinates get everything ready, and he sent the information out. Now, he just had to wait for the results.
