Just as Juliana was making fun of Eduard and Daphne, the door was slammed open with a loud bang that shocked everyone, not to mention the delicate baby who was frightened to tears by the loud noise in an instant.
“Wow…” the baby’s cry sounded very sad. Juliana was so distressed that she quickly coaxed her. The rest of them stared at the rude man at the door. Spencer!
“Spencer, are you out of your mind?!” Lucia’s daughter’s crying made her heart ache. Seeing that Juliana was comforting her, she glared at Spencer and scolded.
Spencer had no idea what he was doing as a father. How could he have known that the baby girl in the room before he opened the door? When he heard the baby’s sharp cry, he replied impatiently,
“Sorry, I pushed too hard.”
Eduard frowned, saw the baby in Juliana’s arms blush and glared at Spencer,
“Spencer, even if you’re a terrible person, but is being a father that irresponsible?!”
Spencer had wanted to disturb the gathering of Lucia and the others, but his action had drawn disgust. However, when he thought of this being his home, his arrogance was immediately rekindled. He walked into the room and said coldly,
“What are you doing here? Lucia is still very weak, so it’s not convenient for her to meet any guests. Besides, you should say tell me when you come to my home, right?”
As he spoke, he walked to the sofa and sat down beside Lucia. He put his arm around her shoulders and crossed his legs, looking arrogant.
“They’re my guests. They’ve already told me before they came. Can’t I make my own decisions?” Suppressing the disgust in her heart, Lucia’s eyes turned cold as she turned her head and asked Spencer in a low voice.
“Lucia, you’re still so weak. How can you let another man into your room? It’s taboo, okay?” Spencer said to Lucia with a mixture of reproach and concern.
“I’m the one who decides what to do.” Lucia’s voice turned cold as she replied calmly, “Why are you rushing back in such a hurry? Are you afraid that I’ll run away or something?”
In the past, Lucia might have hidden her dislike for Spencer in front of Juliana and the others, afraid that they would worry about her. However, after he cheated on her and was exposed, she didn’t think it was necessary anymore.
“Lucia!” Spencer was furious that Lucia was being so rude to him in front of Eduard and the others.
“Spencer, Lucia is not your prisoner. We are her friends, but she has to be so wary of you when we visit her. Is that how you treat her as your fiancee?” Eduard would never let go of an opportunity to mock Spencer.
Spencer couldn’t take it anymore. He stood up, glanced at Eduard and the others, and finally fixed his gaze on the baby. He sneered,
“You’ve seen enough. You can leave now.”
“If Lucia and the bbay weren’t here, do you think we’d want to be here?” Juliana snapped back, disgusted with Spencer.
“In that case, can you please leave quickly? This is my home, not a place where outsiders can come and go as they please,” Spencer said sarcastically.
“You!” Juliana glared at Spencer, unable to part with Lucia and the baby.
Not wanting to embarrass the others, Lucia stood up and said, “Julia, I’m a little tired. You guys go home. We’ll get together again.”
Seeing Lucia caught in the middle, Juliana walked over and handed the baby back to her. She glared at Spencer and said,
“Lucia, take good care of yourself and the baby. Tell us if you have any grievances. We are not omnipotent, but we are more than capable of dealing with some evil people.”
Spencer’s eyes lit up when he heard that.
Lucia couldn’t help but smile and say, “I see. I won’t see you out. Take care.”
“Let’s go.” Juliana nodded, held Kane’s arm angrily as she walked out, followed by Eduard and Daphne. Eduard deliberately turned to Lucia and said, “Lucia, call us if you are wronged. We will support you.”
As soon as Juliana and the others were gone, Spencer turned on Lucia,
“Lucia! How can you insult me in front of outsiders?”
“Didn’t you insult me in front of outsiders?” said Lucia, looking down at her daughter who had calmed down.
Upon hearing Lucia’s words, Spencer calmed down. This was a rare time for the two of them to be alone. Of course, the bastard in her arms could be ignored.
“Nia bribed a reporter to mess up the press conference, and now there are rumors that the child is Arthur’s. Did you know about this?” At first, Spencer didn’t want to bring it up, but still said it.
“Whatever they say.” Lucia did not mind it at all. She only focused on her daughter’s quiet face. Her eyes were half-closed. She looked so cute when she was sleepy and not asleep.
Spencer had expected Lucia to say that, but he was still upset. He turned and was about to speak when he was stunned.
At this moment, Lucia’s back was facing the window. The light was blocked from her back, making her face extremely gentle. Furthermore, she was gazing at her beloved daughter. There was gentleness in her eyes and eyebrows, like an angel bathed in holy light.
Sensing Spencer’s gaze, Lucia turned to glare at him unhappily, which made Spencer feel embarrassed to be caught. He immediately turned his head, cleared his throat, and then said,
“That’s easy for you to say. Do you know what the outside world is saying about your character now? You’re the one who’s being blamed for giving birth to Arthur’s daughter! The reputation of the Webbex Group will also be affected. How can you be so calm and do nothing?”
“I don’t live in judgment,” Lucia said with a chuckle. “Only self-abased people care what others think.”
“Who are you calling self-abased?!” Spencer’s nerves were triggered, but when he turned around and met Lucia’s mocking eyes, he was instantly frustrated. Why couldn’t he remain calm in front of this woman?!
“Well, they’re gone, can you go out now?” Lucia didn’t want to talk to Spencer, so she immediately asked him to leave.
“Why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?” Spencer, who had just been embarrassed, said as he approached Lucia, “I haven’t taken a good look at my ‘daughter’.”
