She Is A CEO

“Juliana, don’t you know me?” Arthur didn’t answer but asked.

Juliana shook her head. Her round and big eyes were full of innocence.

“If you know me well, don’t make any needless guesses. Now you just need to calm down and rest. Don’t think too much.” Arthur glanced at Juliana and finally softened his tone.

“Arthur, I’m sorry…” Juliana apologized at the right time. Her eyes began to brim with tears again.

She continued, “Now the only person I can rely on is you. If you don’t believe me, I don’t know what to do…”

The weakness Juliana showed was in stark contrast to her previous aggressiveness. She knew showing weakness could arouse Arthur’s guilt.

As expected, when Arthur saw her pitiful look, his eyes turned soft and he said, “Well, that’s it. By the way, thank you for sending my parents to the airport.”

“Don’t mention it. I have seen them as my parents!” Juliana laughed through her tears.

Seeing Juliana look better, Arthur thought she had regained control of herself, so he said, “I won’t come back for dinner tomorrow night. Enjoy your dinner at home.”

“Arthur, why don’t you come back?” Juliana asked anxiously.

“Mr. Simon Ware will hold a party tomorrow evening to mark his daughter reaching adulthood. He takes this chance to invite all the celebrities in Athegate to it. I gotta socialize with them, and you can have a good rest at home,” Arthur replied.

“I want to go with you!” Juliana grabbed Arthur’s arm and blurted out.
