"Don't," Eduard said hesitantly, lowering his voice, "Let's wait and see? What if Lucia isn't in there?"
"Peep?" Arthur's gaze was cold to Eduard.
"Not peeping. Just eavesdropping. If you hear Lucia's voice, let's knock." Eduard advised.
Arthur frowned, and without warning, he raised his hand and pushed Eduard's shoulder. Eduard was caught off guard. Fortunately he was holding the edge of the door frame, or he would have just leaned in like this. However, because his body was still impacted, the door behind him opened further, and at the same time, they could hear,
"Lucia, you've been out for so long. Aren't you afraid of Arthur's suspicion?"
Arthur and Eduard were instantly petrified when they heard it. There was no doubt that Lucia was inside, but the man was actually Spencer! They were all too familiar with that voice! It was Spencer whom Lucia hated so much!
"No, he thought I am with Eduard and Daphne. Even if he really doubts it, I'll go back and say that I go for a walk." Lucia's voice sounded very pleasant, and seemed very happy.
"Like every time you say you are walking, but you are actually here to meet me?" Spencer asked after a chuckle.
"Yeah," Lucia replied, and continued, "because I miss you..."
Eduard was shocked. Lucia and Spencer's words undoubtedly proved that the two had been connected, but he didn't believe it! How can that be possible!
He looked at Arthur whose face was expressionless at this point, but the slight veins bulging out of his temples showed how much impulse he was and the anger he was holding back. And there was more anger in his eyes.
"Arthur..." Eduard, who was afraid of Arthur's abnormal behaviour, called to him in a low voice, and now he didn't know what to do.
Arthur shook his head slightly, glanced at Eduard and continued listening to the sounds in the room.
Eduard listened with him in a cold sweat.
"Lucia, when will you have a showdown with him? I can only watch you secretly every day, and I can only hold back what I want to do. Every time I'm mad with jealousy!" A crisp sound of glass touching could be heard. Afterwards, Spencer asked Lucia.
"No hurry," Lucia's voice sounded very lazy, and she replied calmly, "Now Teddy's condition has not improved, and he can't find a suitable match. The Davis family has a lot of money. With their help, they can get more resources.

"I can give you this too," Spencer said so and was unwilling to submit.
"Spencer, don't get excited, okay?" Lucia chuckled and said, "With the influence of you and your dad, you can't call the entire Davonnis Corp to help with the match. Edwin is indeed more successful than your dad. You can't deny that."
"That's because they took my grandpa's assets!" Spencer said indignantly. "Otherwise Edwin wouldn't be where he is today, but it doesn't matter. Soon we will be able to take back what the Edwin family owes us!"
"Don't worry. Esmae said she'd help you, but be patient and wait until Teddy's condition improves." Lucia reassured Spencer.
Eduard had never felt this kind of throbbing feeling, not because of the conversation in the room between Lucia and Spencer, but the look on Arthur's face.
If it was said that Arthur's body exuded a chilling aura before, he could still forbear it. But now, the chilling aura that was gushing out from his body was killing him! To say that Arthur at this time was the god of death who wanted to slaughter all the people, Eduard didn't think it was an exaggeration.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Eduard didn't care anymore. He put his hand on Arthur's shoulder, lowering his voice to persuade him,
"Arthur, calm down. Don't you know what kind of person Lucia is? Now that there are so many magic technologies, maybe the person who speaks is not Lucia at all? Think about the last time Juliana framed you. Maybe things are not what we imagined. Let's figure it out first and then..."
Arthur didn't wait for Eduard to finish his words, but stepped forward. Eduard didn't stand still, but really leaned on the door, staggered a few steps, and the door was opened like this.
The door opened and everything in the room came into view.
The lights in the room were dim, and a man and a woman were leaning against a window directly opposite the door. Both were wearing bathrobes and holding a glass of wine. When they found the door opened, they turned their heads in surprise. After they recognized that they were Arthur and Eduard, the man quickly hid the woman behind him as a protector.
The man and woman were really Lucia and Spencer. When Eduard stood up and turned around that he was proved wrong on the spot.
With his eyes half-squinted, Arthur stared straight ahead, as if his eyes pierced directly through Lucia behind Spencer,
"Lucia, why?"
Outside the door just now, Arthur had experienced too many emotional changes, shock, anger, disbelief, self-doubt, but when the door opened, all he had left in his heart was to ask why. Lucia, why was she doing this to him!
Lucia, who was standing behind Spencer, moved obviously, but instead of coming out to face Arthur, Spencer spoke first,
"Arthur, you... don't get me wrong..."
Spencer's words sounded lame and ridiculous.
"Didn't you just want to have a showdown with me as soon as possible?" Arthur's eyes were still fixed on Lucia, "I'm here right now."
Hearing this, Spencer turned his head and glanced at Lucia. After the two made eye contact for a while, Lucia slowly walked out of Spencer's shelter. A pair of eyes that once faced him with only infinite love, now contained too much complex emotions.
Arthur's eyes widened, because Lucia was all too familiar to him now.
Under the yellow light, her skin was still as clear as before. Her long wavy hair was loosely scattered. Even though there was panic in her eyes, she couldn't hide her moist eyes, which Arthur was all too familiar with.
What she did with Spencer just now didn't need to be asked.
Eduard was stunned.
"Arthur, why are you here..." After a long time, Lucia spoke up, but what she said made Arthur angry.
