Chapter 763 The decision that cannot be understood

"Mr. Brown, are you sure?" Spencer reconfirmed with Cameron, realizing the gravity of the situation.

"Of course I'm sure," Cameron said dryly, irritated by Spencer's questioning.

"According to our agreement, as long as you can help me dismantle the Brown family's customer chain, I'm willing to help you take back Davonnis Corp in the future. However, we can't even complete the first step now. Spencer, I really suspect that you're just fooling me. Where was your promise?"

"Mr. Louis, don't take this the wrong way," Spencer quickly explained,

"I'm working with you. I just don't know what went wrong. Did they mention anything when they broke up with you?"

"Nothing," Cameron said. "I don't care what you have to do to figure this out. If you don't, I, Louis Group will make you an enemy!"

"Mr. Louis, I..." Spencer was hung up before he could finish his words. He gripped the phone in his hand and did not say a word. His face was ashen.

At this moment, Spencer really panicked. He had spent two months behind the Brown family's back to lobby their partners in the dark. Everything was going smoothly and he had not lost a single battle. Why was everything falling apart all of a sudden?

Could it be that the Brown family already knew something was up?

Spencer thought so, but quickly dismissed the idea. He knew Esmae too well, and if she knew about it, she would have immediately called him and questioned him. She would not have remained silent until now.

So what went wrong?

The more Spencer thought about it, the more he felt that things were getting out of hand. He was in over his head, but one thing he was sure of was that the surveillance on Lucia was about to get stricter! Jack and the other people picked up on Spencer as soon as he stepped up surveillance around the building. They hurriedly told the news to Lucia, but she was not anxious.

"Helena and they have told Uncle Chris and Auntie Esmae that Spencer has betrayed the Brown family. Spencer will panic and we'll just have to act as usual."

"Lucia, will we alert him?" Gene asked worriedly.

Lucia pursed her lips slightly and thought to herself that Esmae's action this time was indeed something that she had not expected. As usual, she would be furious when she found out about Spencer's betrayal. Even if she did not return to the country to question him, and she was right to be concerned about her current predicament with the baby, but so far, she hadn't contacted her. And Spencer had no plans to leave the country. What did Esmae want to do?

With Gene's question, Lucia was even more unsure. She and Helena had personally confirmed that night, that Chris and Esmae were aware of this. And Lucia ws concerned that Esmae had so far done nothing but redeem the lost client chain.

If it was just her, Lucia could wait for the results calmly, but now that it was a matter of the baby's safety. Lucia didn't want to wait any longer. She had just hung up the phone with Helena, and she took the initiative to contact Esmae.

"Auntie, I..." The call went through, and Esmae spoke before Lucia could say hello.

"Stop it. I know what you're going to say," Esmae said coldly. "You're still Spencer's fiancee until I say something."

"Auntie," said Lucia, frowning and failing to understand,

"Now that you've seen who Spencer really is, why..."

"Because I know that you're the one leading the investigation!" Esmae roared angrily. "All you want is to have a legitimate reason for you to break off the engagement. Under such circumstances, I'll only consider the company's cut-off, not your engagement with Spencer."

"Auntie, isn't that the same thing?" Lucia smiled wryly. "Even if I don't know Arthur today and Spencer is evil, I'll still investigate what he did and expose it."

"But you just want to leave Spencer for Arthur now, don't You?" Esmae refused to listen to Lucia's explanation.

"Aunt, why don't you give up now," continued Lucia, a little annoyed by Esmae's remarks. Her pleas were never worth the effort.

"Spencer betrayed me, and now he's betrayed the Brown family. Why are you forcing him to be with me?"

"Then you can assure me that if I break off the engagement, you will never go to Arthur again for the rest of your life?" Esmae's words were cold and hard. Lucia was momentarily speechless.

"Well, I knew it," Esmae sneered. "You did it for Arthur, but only for that. Spencer is a man I can control, but not abandon."

"Aunt, Spencer is out of control," Lucia said. "He has the building under surveillance. Baby and I are in danger. Can you please break off our engagement?"

"You don't have to be an alarmist," said Esmae coolly.

"Isn't he monitoring the building because you're always trying to find Arthur? You disobeyed me and continue to work with him, and now he's gonna let you be with Arthur? I know you're in and out of Davonnis Corp a lot right now. Even if Spencer has some control over it, I'd understand."

Lucia felt a throbbing pain in her heart, and nothing was more painful than being distrusted by those closest to her.

Lucia was speechless. Esmae waited a long time. She seemed to understand what she was thinking, but in no way agreed with what she was doing. Then she softened her tone and said,

"Lucia, have you ever thought about how you're responsible for Spencer being pushed to this point? You didn't give him a chance, and neither did I. That's why you forced him to cooperate with Louis Group. If..."

"There are no ifs," Lucia said at last, but her voice was hard and irrational.

"Spencer is a shameless scoundrel. This will never change. I don't know how clever his words are to make you feel that he has been wronged, but everything he does goes against the love that he says he has. The original purpose of him getting close to me is just to get back at Arthur. Now, he's using the Brown family to gain momentum and colluding with his enemies. Auntie, if you think he's still useful, I won't stop you, but I don't want to do nothing anymore."

"What do you want?!" Esmae panicked when she heard Lucia speak to her in such a cold voice.
