Chapter 747 Fiery Encounter
Spencer was so sly that he didn't take Nia's sarcasm seriously. Instead, he asked her,
"You're here early to see Lucia, Nia. Who knew about this, you or the press?"
"Don't accuse me wrongly." Nia sneered. "The story of your domestic abuse of Ms. Webb spread throughout Athegate this morning. I only came here after hearing the news." "Really?" Spencer smiled, his eyes still menacing.
"Spencer, you're so bold. The violence against me hasn't subsided yet, and now you're using it on Ms. Webb. Do you think you'll still be able to hang out with the upper class?" With Jacob by her side, Nia wasn't afraid of Spencer.
How could Spencer bear being ridiculed by Nia who had never been in his eye before? Instead of being angry, Spencer turned to Jacob and said,
"Mr. Wood, doesn't your father have a problem with your relationship with Nia? How can your parents let a woman like that into your home?" Jacob's eyes darkened. He stared at Spencer and said,
"Did you really give that information to my father?"
Spencer immediately sneered and said, "Don't accuse me wrongly. Everyone knows what kind of slut Nia is. Do I have to reveal it?"
Nia was furious when she heard the word "slut", but just as she was about to refute it, Jacob beat her to the punch.
"Spencer, you're already in trouble. Instead of worrying about what my father thinks of Nia, you should worry about where your reputation is going. Nia, let's go." Jacob didn't want to get into trouble with Spencer in the first place, but took the opportunity to say something harsh and drag Nia away.
"Don't pull me. I'm not afraid of him!" Nia said unhappily as she struggled.
"I know you're upset, but don't start anything," Jacob said. "Our goal is to get them both killed. Why are you involving yourself in this?!"
"I got myself involved?" Nia watched the elevator door close, threw Jacob's hand away, and said in a cold voice,
"What were you doing in front of Lucia and Arthur?"
When Jacob saw that Nia was obsessed with this matter, he was so upset that he closed his eyes, crossed his arms, and waited for the elevator to descend to the first floor. He didn't care about Nia anymore. Nia was so angry at Jacob's indifference.
Upstairs, Spencer made his way to Lucia's room, where there were only two bodyguards.
"Let him in." Arthur glanced faintly at Spencer and ordered the two bodyguards to let go of him and stand outside the door.
Spencer glared at the two bodyguards and patted his suit in disdain. Seeing that Arthur was indeed by Lucia's side, he thought of Nia's cold words just now and immediately sneered,
"You must have done a lot of good things last night, huh?"
Lucia was not pleased when she heard this, not to mention Spencer's coarse remarks. What he said was absolutely disgusting when their daughter was in the ward last night!
"I didn't let you in here to listen to this crap," Arthur said, standing at the bedside in a cool manner.
"Go ahead."
Arthur's dominant attitude upset Spencer, but he had to bite the bullet and ask Lucia,
"Did you leak the injury to the press?"
Lucia's eyebrows twitched in disdain.
"You think I'm that boring?"
"There's a lot of hype in the media right now about this, and there's a lot of criticism of me and Cloudwork. The only person who benefits is you, Lucia, and you're saying that you didn't do this?" Spencer said that Lucia was being perfunctory.
"Think what you like," said Lucia impatiently, not caring what Spencer thought.
The coldness from Lucia was like ice on his heart. Spencer gritted his teeth and felt that there was no point in asking any more questions. To be honest, Lucia was not the kind of person who would use the media to make a statement, and he came to question, just wanted an answer.
If it wasn't her... who was it?
"Are you done?" Lucia asked impatiently as she saw Spencer standing there thinking. "Can you go now? You're disturbing my rest."
"The press already knows about this," Spencer said, glaring at Lucia. "You need to behave yourself. If the paparazzi get a picture of Arthur in your hospital room, Lucia, you won't be able to defend yourself." "I don't have to defend myself," Lucia said simply.
"What? Now you're too lazy to even cover up?" Spencer felt bitter and sneered.
"Me and her, nothing to hide." This was Arthur's answer.
When Spencer heard this, he immediately wondered if Lucia had confessed everything to Arthur, or why Arthur's attitude had suddenly changed? In their relationship, Arthur had been trying to protect Lucia's image by taking a step back.
"Spencer, finish your words and go out. I want to rest." Lucia didn't give Spencer a chance to speculate before she sent him out..
"Lucia... you..." Spencer felt defeated for a moment. He stared at Lucia, not knowing what else to say.
Arthur walked over to Spencer, and if he didn't leave soon, he wouldn't mind "asking" him out himself.
Arthur's expression was blank, but the pressure he felt was real. Spencer took two steps back and became furious when he realized how cowardly he had acted.
"Arthur, even if Lucia is shameless enough to insist on being with you, don't forget who you are. Being with her will only make her reputation worse. By then, the public will be all over the place and none of us will benefit!"All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
"Benefit?" said Arthur with a sneer and a deep voice. "Don't get me wrong. I'm not like you. You do it for yourself, but I do it for her"
"Don't make yourself sound so pure and lofty!" Even though he was still adamant, Spencer, who had been cornered by Arthur at the door, was still reluctant to admit it.
"Weren't you with her to make up for what you owed her?"
Spencer's words made Arthur laugh, and Lucia laughed out loud. It was, indeed, the funniest thing they had heard so far.
Spencer regretted and felt like slapping himself in the face.
