She Is a Ceo by Jorgie Chapman

Chapter 57 Breakup
For a while, Lucia just looked at Arthur, not saying anything and not answering.
Arthur couldn’t understand Lucia’s strange behavior and indifferent attitude. She obviously had no intention of talking yet, so he
took a deep breath and decided to ask some questions that he was eager to know first, “You know when I went back to USA,
right?”
“I know” It was a while before Lucia finally spoke up and answered.
“You know it but why didn’t you contact me?” asked Arthur.
Lucia was silent again
Arthur asked again. “Have you and Theodore been safe all this time?”
“Hmm “Lucia replied with a nod
“Where’s he?” Arthur asked again.
“Asleep. Keep your voice down. Mentioning Theodore, Lucia seemed to speak more, and Arthur seized the opportunity to ask
again.
“Why haven’t you been in touch with me?”
This time, Lucia chose to be silent again. Smart as Arthur soon found out. Lucia was not unwilling to talk to him, but just kept
avoiding talking about the lost connection.
“Don’t you have something to say to me? Say it.”
“Arthur, let’s break up.” There was no light in her eyes. Lucia just staggeringly broke Arthur’s heart without warning.
“What did you say?” Arthur heard the words, but he didn’t believe them
Lucia lowered her eyes. Her lips quirked a few times. She wanted to speak before repeating again, “I said, let’s break up.”
After Lucia finished her words, she was pulled into his arms the next second. He stared at her and said in a cold voice, “What did
you just say?! Say it again!”

Lucia looked away. She was a little afraid to look at Arthur’s eyes at that moment, but the next moment her jaw was pinched.
Arthur used brute force to make Lucia turn back to meet his eyes again, insisting that she should say the words again. Because
even there were uncertainties and impossibilities, Arthur never thought Lucia would say that to him!
They had just established their relationship not long ago. They were intensely affectionate and getting more and more intimate.
Did all those feelings dissipate just because of the separation of just ten days or so!?
Arthur himself did not believe it!
Being forced to meet Arthur’s burning and questioning eyes, Lucia’s indifference reduced finally but she seemed to be holding
back. Even if her eyes looked weak, she still insisted on repeating the words that made Arthur collapse, “I said... let’s break
up....
Only this time, her voice was low and weak.
Arthur let go of Lucia, turned around and bent his head. The bitterness in his heart was unspeakable. She had said three times
the words “break up” so she was not joking....
Seeing Arthur’s sudden passive posture, Lucia tightly bite her lower lip. The indifference in her eyes were instantly replaced by
bitterness. But it can not be noticed by Arthur.
Just as the air fell into a dead silence, a confused child’s voice rang out in the direction of the bedroom, “Daddy, you’re home?”
it turned out that just now Arthur was unable to control the volume emotionally, and his questioning woke up Theodore who was
sleeping in the bedroom Theodore heard what seemed to be Arthur’s voice. Even if he was sleepy, he got up. Now, he was
rubbing his eyes and standing in the living room entrance to ask Arthur
As soon as he saw Theodore, Arthur stood up and walked over to pick him up in his arms, looking at his son in a heartfelt way.
Arthur turned his head to look at Lucia, only to see that Lucia somehow looked at the windowsill. He could not see her
expression at the
moment
Trying to restrain himself, Arthur turned back to Theodore and kissed him on the cheek and asked, “Theodore, did you have a
good Christmas

and New Year?
Arthur wanted to know about Lucia and Theodore on the one hand, and to learn some clues from Theodore on the other hand,
but Theodore only said. “Daddy, we had a very happy Christmas and New Year. Why didn’t you come to us?”
With Theodores question, Arthur knew that Lucia did not reveal anything to the child in order not to let the child have too much
doubt, Arthur bed. “Daddy is too busy these days and can’t find time to visit you. Sorry, let’s spend the Spring Festival together,
okay?”
“Yes” Theodores eyes lit up and he responded happily. Then he held up his little finger as if he was afraid Arthur would back out
and said to him, “Daddy and Theodore do the pinky promise. Never break a promise again”
Arthur looked at Theodore’s eyes full of expectation, and felt suffocated in order not to let his son disappointed, he still made an
appointment
ien he carried him back to his room, and put him to sleep before returning to the living room
In the living room, Lucia was still sitting on the sofa. Her posture had not changed Arthur suddenly did not want to walk over but
to leave directly. Following the track of time, December 20th was the day Lucia and Theodore left Whether it was because of
being capricious or domineering, he

He was sure that Lucia must have come back from something in Chicago to break up with him, but what was it for?
Suddenly, he stepped forward and walked straight to Lucia. At this time, she was stubbornly looking out the window. Even Arthur
crouched in front of her, she did not turn back. Regardless of her indifference, Arthur grabbed her hand and asked, “Lucia, is
there any problem we can solve
together?”
Whatever plight Lucia had, Arthur can accept it and he believed he can solve it, but unfortunately
Lucia continued her indifferent attitude

Turning her head to face Arthur’s pleading eyes, the coldness in Lucia’s eyes deepened Just now during the ten or so minutes
when Theodore was present, it gave Arthur a chance to calm down, but also gave Lucia time to cool down as well. She looked
straight at Arthur and replied in an indifferent voice, “Arthur, I am an adult and I make my own choices out of deliberation. I’m not
influenced by any other factors, but only by the space and possibilities for both of us to develop. I think that we are not suitable
for each other. It is the best choice for both of us to break up early while our feelings are still not deep.”
“No deep feelings?!” Lucia said so much and Arthur only caught this point. He immediately raised his eyebrows and asked this

question.
“Right” Lucia nodded, lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Arthur.
