My Mommy Is A CEO

Chapter 111 Destined to Be Alone



Spencer did not reject Jacob’s offer. After all, Athegate was unfamiliar to him since he just came here, so he accepted calmly, “Mr. Taylor, thank you.”

Jacob smiled and called his right-hand man to take Spencer to the most luxurious hotel in the city to settle down, and ordered his man to not tell Poppy about it.

After they left, Jacob went to read the documents on the table.

“The Davies family was indeed rich and powerful…” Reading the document, Jacob said, whether ironically or cynically.

It turned out that Spencer gave a copy of a project proposal, which marked out the bidding base price and bidding requirements. The signature of the decision maker was at the bottom of the back page. With this signature, the project that could bring JTP Group 100 million dollars in profits would be taken.

It had been a tricky task for Jacob to take on this project recently. Unexpectedly, Spencer solved it for him.

Jacob no longer cared about Spencer’s purpose. After all, a rich and powerful family like the Davies family inevitably had internal strife. Jacob didn’t want to have a further understanding of it, as long as Spencer could be of help.

“Arthur… Wait and see!” Closing the document, Jacob murmured menacingly.

Spencer was settled in the Pear Blossom Hotel by Jacob’s right-hand man.

After Jacob’s man left, Spencer did not rest. Instead, he went out to find Arthur. He had to tell this cousin when he returned home.

Arthur had just returned home with Juliana when he received a phone call from Spencer.

Spencer didn’t tell Arthur about his return, so Arthur was very surprised.

Knowing that Spencer would come to visit Arthur after their conversation over the phone, Juliana hurried upstairs and told Arthur not to tell Spencer she was here, since she didn’t want to see anyone.

Spencer arrived soon after Juliana went upstairs. Arthur had not seen this cousin for several years, so he naturally welcomed him.

“Spencer, I haven’t seen you for a long time. Why didn’t you tell me in advance before you returned home?” Opening the door for Spencer and ushering him in, Arthur said with a smile.

“I came back this time to deal with some things. It’s not far from Athegate, so I want to come to see you. Well, don’t you welcome me?” Spencer said with a smile on his face.

Among Edwin’s four sons, Spencer disliked Arthur the most. He had everything he wanted, an extraordinarily high IQ and unmatched academic achievements. Also, he was his grandpa’s favorite grandson when his grandpa was still alive. Spencer, however, was only admitted into the university because of his father’s connection.

Such a realization evoked hatred within Spencer. The more he hated Arthur, the deeper his smile became.

“Why not?” Arthur said with a smile, “Of course, I’m glad you came to see me. Where’s your luggage? It’s more convenient for you to live here.”

“Don’t bother. I’ve already opened a room in Pear Blossom Hotel. I’ll leave in a few days.”

They came to the living room while talking. After sitting down, Arthur asked the housekeeper to pour tea into their cups and chatted with Spencer, but Spencer shifted the focus onto Arthur after a few words.

“Arthur, I heard from my uncle that you are dating a woman named Lucia. Don’t you introduce her to me?”

Speaking of Lucia, Arthur frowned and obviously didn’t want to continue this topic.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Why, are you quarreling?” Spencer noticed something unusual. He asked with “concern”. He didn’t know that Arthur and Lucia were now in conflict because of Juliana.

“It’s just a trifle. Just skip it. Spencer, let me show you around Athegate these days.” Arthur didn’t want to mention Lucia. Besides, Spencer was just a cousin that he seldom contacted. Thus, he changed the subject to avoid the topic.

Spencer answered with a smile on the outside, but he had kept this in mind.

It seemed that something happened to Arthur and Lucia.

Spencer didn’t ask further and refused Arthur’s suggestion to take him on a trip.

After a short talk with Arthur, Spencer left with the excuse of getting tired from a long journey. After he left, Arthur was thinking alone in the living room.

He had a deep understanding of Erik’s personality and deeds. He didn’t mean to be critical. He was very clear that even his cousin Spencer was a conspirator.

His father Edwin personally reminded him and his brothers should keep a proper distance from Erik and Spencer, the father and son. Spencer suddenly returned home and came to Athegate to visit him. Was that Spencer’s real purpose?

He hoped so.

Arthur could only think so.

Spencer left Arthur’s villa with a sneer on his lips. He came here to visit Arthur for fear that the unexpected meeting would put him on the spot. He thought with disdain that Arthur should come to the hotel to visit him. Anyway, it was a worthy trip. At least he knew something must have happened between Arthur and Lucia. As for what it was, Jacob should tell him.

Time sped by and a few days passed. Since that day, Spencer had only contacted Arthur by phone. Arthur wasn’t bothered by it.

To his relief, Juliana seemed to be recovering slowly, but he got a feeling that he couldn’t tell.

Juliana seemed to cling to him more than before.

Arthur and Juliana were childhood sweethearts, so the relationship between them was close. However, no matter how close they were, there should be boundaries between them.

Recently, as soon as he returned to the villa, Juliana would stick to him, either hold his arms tightly or lean into his arms. Although Arthur felt strange, he did not reject her. He thought Juliana was just too fragile.

But Juliana didn’t think so. She got closer to Arthur with ulterior motives.

That day, she noticed Lucia’s weird gaze at Arthur when she leaned against Arthur intimately. She took a tumble and realized that the best way to make Lucia out of the picture was to let Arthur have another woman around him.

Thus, as planned, Juliana was clearing the boundaries between her and Arthur. She even had a daring plan.

Though it looked like she was using Arthur, she was doing so for his good.

“Arthur, do you think someone will want to be with me in the future?” After dinner, Juliana suddenly asked Arthur.

Arthur’s heart trembled. Looking at Juliana’s sad eyes, he quickly replied, “Of course, Julia is so excellent, and naturally someone wants to be with you.”

“Even after that?” Tears came out of her eyes. Juliana asked in a low voice.

Arthur was silent for a while and said, “Julia, I believe that one day a man will appear, who loves you unconditionally, and doesn’t mind your past.”

“But what if he doesn’t show up?” Juliana smiled bitterly and continued, “Am I destined to be alone in my life?”
