My Mommy Is A CEO

Chapter 119 Pretend to Be Juliana’s Boyfriend



Arthur looked at the door as if it was not just an ordinary door but a door that separated him from Lucia’s heart forever.

From the door came the pained cries of Lucia who was breaking down. Her cries pierced into Arthur’s heart, entangled it fiercely and tore it apart.

Arthur let out a sigh and leaned his head against the door. He was so close to Lucia, but why did he feel he was so far away from her?

“Lucia, I love you. I really love you…” Arthur whispered, accompanied by the cries inside the door.

The end of the year was the busiest time before the close. Everyone was trying their best to make a final summary, just to welcome the most meaningful reunion day in the hearts of the citizens, the new year festival.

Arthur agreed with Juliana’s suggestion and promised to go home with her as a fake boyfriend to celebrate the new year. When Juliana heard that, she gave a sincere smile for the first time after the mishap, but she chose to ignore the heavy sadness in Arthur’s eyes.

As usual, Arthur would spare some time to visit Lucia at noon every day. He looked at her from afar, standing silently at the corner like a statue.

Finally, the legal holiday came. Arthur asked Peter to take care of Juliana, and he went to the ancestral home of the Davies family in Mokio, to visit the graves of his ancestors. His parents, brothers, and son were already waiting for him there.

On that day of his flight, Theodore heard that his father was coming, so he asked his grandmother to take him to the airport to pick up his father. Thus, as soon as the plane landed and Arthur walked out of the exit, Theodore ran over and threw himself into Arthur’s arms.

“Daddy, you are finally here.” Burying his head in Arthur’s neck, Theodore shouted happily.

With his son in his arms, Arthur felt warm and held him tightly. But the next second, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave because of Theodore’s question.

“Where is Mommy? Daddy, why don’t you bring Mommy with you?”

Theodore asked Arthur with his bright eyes wide open.

A young boy like Theodore didn’t know what it was like to be sad. Though intelligent, he couldn’t understand the uneasiness in his father’s eyes. He just missed his mother.

“Theodore, your mommy is busy with her work. Have you forgotten that she is the CEO of Jibillion Inc?” When Arthur couldn’t answer it, Sophie stepped forward to help him out.

“Oh, I see,” Theodore rolled his eyes quizzically and smiled. “Mommy is awesome. The company can’t work without her. Well, as a good boy, I’ll wait for mommy to finish her work.”

His son’s being so understanding made Arthur feel touched. He held his son tightly in his arms, with mixed emotions in his eyes.

“Daddy, you hurt me.” Not knowing why Arthur suddenly hugged him so tightly, Theodore felt uncomfortable in his arms and complained.

“Baby, I’m sorry. I just miss you so much,” Arthur said to Theodore with a smile after loosening his grip.

“I miss daddy too,” Theodore said sweetly and kissed Arthur’s cheek. He looked so adorable that Arthur couldn’t help but hold him again.

Standing aside and watching the reunion of the father and son, Sophie felt both comforted and bitter. As a mother, she might be the only one who could understand the mixed emotions in her son’s eyes. Alas, how did the discord creep into the relationship between Arthur and Lucia?

The Davies family was a well-known family locally. The ancestral house was a courtyard that had been guarded by the ancestors for generations. Back there, Arthur felt strange and familiar. Although he had been worried about Lucia, luckily, Theodore was around him. His lovely son could always make him smile again, so he did not reveal any strange emotions in front of his father and brothers.

As the family was reunited with excitement, the new year festival was coming. Of course, Lucia, whom Theodore had been looking forward to, was absent.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

During this period, Lucia had a video chat with Theodore, telling him that she hadn’t finished her work yet, and that she might have to work in the company during the new year festival.

The young Theodore, who was trying hard to hold back his longing for his mom, showed his higher tolerance than other children. He smiled and told his mother not to get tired from working. However, he didn’t know that his mom’s eyes were filled with tears after hanging up the phone.

The ceremony of visiting ancestral graves held by the Davies family was incomparably grand, and it even made the local news. All the members of the Davies family attended the ceremony, and even their distant relatives rushed over. After all, the Davies family was the one that everyone tried hard to curry favor with.

Therefore, during the new year festival, Arthur had been busy, dealing with all kinds of relatives and arranging the ceremony, to save himself from remembering Lucia’s cries that night.

As soon as the ceremony was over, Arthur said goodbye to his family and didn’t explain anything. He asked his mother to take care of him and then returned to Athegate. He didn’t forget what he had promised Juliana.

During the new year festival, it was much quieter than before in Athegate. The traffic on the street was sparse. Everyone went home.

Arthur wanted to call Lucia and asked her where she was and how she celebrated the new year festival. But after hesitating for a while, he didn’t make a call. He was afraid that his call would be rejected.

When he arrived at the villa, Juliana had been waiting for him for a long time. Without a moment of pausing, Arthur took her to Lepus where the Knights were living. As soon as they arrived at the Knight residence, he got an enthusiastic reception he never had before. It turned out that Juliana had called his parents and told them that she was going home and that she was with Arthur.

“Arthur, you are finally back.” In the Knight’s Villa, Kayla, Juliana’s mother, immediately greeted Arthur as soon as she saw him. They had a deep relationship, and now Arthur had become her daughter’s boyfriend, which deepened their relationship.

“Hello, Auntie Kayla.” Arthur greeted her with a smile as he handed the gift to the servant.

“Arthur, is the ceremony going well?” Robert Knight, Juliana’s father came over. The first thing he asked about was the Davies family’s ceremony of visiting ancestral graves.

“Everything goes well. Besides, we have found some collateral relatives of the Davies family. My dad is very happy,” Arthur replied.

“Dad, Mom, can’t we sit down and have a talk? Why did you block our way in the hallway and start talking?” Juliana held Arthur’s arm and acted like a spoiled child to her parents as if she had been out of her misery.

“Oh, I forgot it. Come in and have a seat!” Kayla smiled and quickly ushered the two into the living room. The living room was luxuriously decorated, and the atmosphere of the new year festival prevailed. After the four sat down, Kayla watched her daughter leaning against Arthur, grinning from ear to ear.

“Mom, don’t stare at us all the time…” Juliana couldn’t stand her mother’s passionate gaze and said in a spoiled tone.

“I’m happy,” Kayla said with a doting smile. “I used to think that our two families could get connected by marriage, but you seemed to have no feelings for each other. Now my wish has finally come true. You don’t know how happy I am.”
