My Mommy Is A CEO

Chapter 73 I’m here



After telling what happened before, Lucia’s tears also flowed into a river, Arthur saw her so heartbroken, despite the injuries on her body hard to embrace her into the arms, said softly:

“It’s okay, I’m here.”

The damage Arthur had suffered during this time was doubled with Lucia.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Finally confessing the secret she had suppressed in her heart, Lucia cried and hugged Arthur’s shoulders, as if she had to use all her strength to apologize, and said in a hoarse voice:

“Arthur, I’m sorry, I didn’t want to do that to you, I didn’t want to say those things that hurt you … but I couldn’t help it.”

When Lucia said that, Arthur was even more distressed.

While sobbing, Lucia continued: “Every time I say those words to you, my heart hurts so much, but Auntie Esmae is as kind to me as a mountain, Arthur, I’m sorry, I can’t choose.”

“I know I know …” said Arthur softly while patting Lucia’s back.

Lucia can finally stop keeping secrets, crying and explaining to Arthur what she has been doing lately, and what she said when they met today, all lies, Arthur listened attentively, although his heart aches for Lucia’s tears, but the mood is really getting better.

As long as Lucia is willing to talk, no matter what it is, he is willing to carry it for her.

The two told each other their hearts, for a long time did not pay attention to Sophie standing aside, although she understood the truth, but this truth, the same is she can not bear.

Finally, Lucia’s emotions gradually settled down, Sophie only then a quiet sigh: “Lucia, that Auntie Esmae, the name Esmae Wilson it …”

“Yeah.” Lucia nodded, looking at Sophie’s sad expression, she felt that there must be a hidden agenda, no matter how to speculate, Sophie does not look like a cross-eyed person, so she asked:

“Auntie Sophie, the feud back then, was it actually a misunderstanding?”

Lucia’s trust in herself makes Sophie smile, but the corners of her eyes hide infinite sadness, Esmae is the regret of her life and her husband, but also Sophie’s most ashamed person.

“I didn’t expect the Wilson family to have so many things happen back then, when she was studying in USA, she was still in China, she never only reported the good news to us, Arthur’s father and I didn’t know about Mr. Wilson’s illness, if she had told… …”

Lucia listened and felt that Sophie was deliberately avoiding the betrayal, but she couldn’t question it to her face, so she looked down at Arthur, who understood her mind and helped her ask the biggest question:

“Mom, is it true that you betrayed Esmae to be with Dad back then?”

Sophie’s eyes sank and nodded slowly, this is indeed the truth, only in it, there are too many explanations that Esmae did not want to hear at first.

“Take it easy, listen to me slowly.” Sophie sighed and soothed her son, then looked at Lucia and told the story of the past that, although she had spent time with Esmae, had a completely different perspective.

Sophie was indeed Esmae’s best friend. At that time, Sophie was lively and mischievous, so she was very fond of Esmae, who came from a bookish family and was gentle and quiet, and every time she called her name, Sophie felt stable.

The two became good friends for three years in high school, and of course, there was that big boy Edwin.

Sophie is shocked when Esmae shyly tells herself that she has a crush on Edwin because … the person Edwin likes, is her!

Esmae may have forgotten that she and they may have met in high school, but Sophie and Edwin have been in the same class since junior high school, and they still met in high school together.

The Richards family were businessmen, and in those days, Xu’s father had planned for his youngest daughter to return home to help with the business after junior high school, but because of Edwin, Sophie fought to attend high school and later finish college.

Sophie and Edwin although not openly feelings, but the two have long been unspoken, their future, have each other, can imagine Sophie in hearing Esmae also like him when the mood is more complicated.

Faced with Esmae, who is shy but cautiously reveals her feelings toherself, Sophie can’t tell the truth. She thought that it was just Esmae’s youthful fluttering heart, which might fade away with the passage of time or meet other boys she likes, but she was wrong.

When Sophie realized the seriousness of the problem, it was too late. Esmae had already fallen deeply in love with Edwin, she didn’t notice the way Edwin looked at her, she didn’t notice that Edwin was always closer to her when the three of them stood together, she didn’t notice that they were secretly holding hands together under the desks, and she didn’t know that Edwin would bring her to the Davies family after school or during holidays. The Davies family would bring him to study and play together.

With Edwin, Sophie was always full of guilt. Every time she saw Esmae secretly glancing at Edwin from the corner of her eyes, her eyes full of love, it would make her feel as if she had stolen something from Esmae. For this reason, she was especially good to Esmae and even once thought of giving up Edwin, but when she made this suggestion to Edwin When she made this suggestion to Edwin, Edwin got angry.

How can love be used as a tool to make up for friendship.

Edwin identified Sophie and would not change.

Edwin proposed that they tell Esmae the truth together, but Sophie refused. She couldn’t bear to hurt the quiet girl and didn’t want to break their friendship, so it dragged on and on until she and Edwin both got into USA’s university in the college entrance exam, while Esmae failed.

Esmae decided to repeat her studies in order to follow Edwin, and although Sophie knew it well, she still supported her decision and hoped that she

She never expected that Mr. Wilson would fall ill in the year she resumed her studies. Money was nothing in the eyes of Sophie’s well-off family, and at that age she could not appreciate the hardships that an ordinary family needed to pay for a child to study abroad.

Sophie and Edwin came to USA. Although they went to different universities, they were both in New York City, and Esmae was not around. They had more time to hold hands, hug and tell each other their love.

A year later, Esmae reported the good news, and Sophie was in pain during that time, because once Esmae arrived at USA herself there were only two ways to go, either to continue to hide as before and pull away from Edwin, or to tell her directly and suffer all the consequences.

Both of these paths are something Sophie doesn’t want to face.
