Chapter 117 As His Plus One âOkay, Iâll drive you there.â Lucas nodded. Hearing this, Emily shook her head. âNo need. I can take a taxi there myself. You still have work to do. You can do your own things. Donât worry about me.â When she went to the Greens Group in the morning and saw that everyone was busy working, she could imagine how busy Lucas was. âItâs fine, Iâll send you off,â Lucas said firmly.
Then, he called for Mason. âDoctor Armstrong, get in the car,â Lucas said as he walked towards the car.
Since the man insisted on sending her off, Emily could not say anything else. She nodded and followed. After arriving at the villa, Emily went directly to the medicine field in the back garden, while Lucas went to the study on the second floor. The location of the study on the second floor corresponded to the back garden. He stood in front of the huge French window and took Emily into his eyes. He only saw that the little woman was bent over, carefully taking care of the newly cultivated medicinal seedlings. The sunlight shone down, and Emilyâs fair little face was covered with a thin layer of sweat.
It is said that the most attractive person who works hard is... Not long later, Lucas was also somewhat lost in thought. At this moment, on the other side.
The Smith Group. At this time, Chase Smith was sitting in the office dealing with work. Suddenly, Xiao Li called again. She pressed the answer button and said coldly, âAny progress?â âMiss, just now, Lucas sent that woman to the villa at the top of the mountain. Because there were people waiting at the foot of the mountain, we couldnât follow them. We donât know what happened yet.â
âWhat?â
Chase Smith clenched the tip of her finger and clenched her teeth. âWait there and see when they will leave.â
âYes, Miss.â
At this moment, Chase Smithâs heart was filled with a huge shock and a sense of crisis. The villa on the top of the mountain was Lucasâ private territory. Every time he needed rest, Lucas would go there to stay. Although she had never been there before, she had heard quite a few things. It was impossible for Lucas to bring anyone there. But now, that woman had actually gone! For a moment, Chase Smith was even more flustered. She added, âContinue to watch. If there are any movements, report to me at any time.â Chase Smith admitted that she began to panic. âOkay, Miss, I understand.â Xiao Li nodded.
After a busy afternoon, Emily was finally done. She rubbed the space between her eyebrows and sighed. Sure enough, cultivating medicinal herbs was not an easy task. After washing her hands and washing the soil on her body, Emily walked to the living room.
Just as she was about to speak, Lucas walked over and asked, âAre you done?â âYes, Iâm done. Iâm going down the mountain.â
Emily nodded. âAlright, Iâm done with my work too. I can send you down together...â Just as Lucas said this, Mason suddenly walked over with an anxious expression. âPresident, wait a moment!â
âWhatâs wrong?â Lucas frowned. Mason was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, he looked at Emily and said, âDoctor Armstrong, are you in a hurry in the afternoon? If not, why donât you accompany our president to a banquet?â When he said this, Emily and Lucas were obviously stunned. âOur president happens to have a banquet tonight and needs a female companion. You also know that with our presidentâs character... Iâm just worried about where to find him a perfect match...â Mason continued. Emily frowned and a troubled look flashed across her face. âThis isnât good. I donât even have a gown. Moreover... I still have to pick up the children from school.â
At this time, if she didnât pick up the two little guys, they would be anxious. Mason patted his chest and said, âThatâs easy. Iâll help you pick up those two little guys.â
When he said this, Masonâs expression changed and he seemed to be in a very difficult position. Without waiting for Emily to open her mouth to refuse, he spoke to himself. âDoctor Armstrong, to tell you the truth, there is no way to decline this banquet invitation. If there is any other way, I naturally do not want to trouble you.â âHowever, it is not like you do not know about the CEOâs situation. In this kind of occasion, you definitely need to drink. If you go over, you can help President to share the drinking.
The CEO can also use the excuse to leave early.â As he spoke, Mason sighed again. âIn the past, I used to drink on behalf of the president in this kind of occasion. But recently, my stomach has been inflamed. I really canât help it...â Hearing this, Emily also fell silent. She hesitated, not knowing what to say. In fact, she did not like this kind of occasion. Moreover, she was going to be Lucasâ female companion. For some reason, Emily felt even more strange in her heart. Suddenly, Lucas called out to Mason.
âForget it. If Doctor Armstrong is unwilling, donât force her. I can do it alone.â Hearing this, Emily felt even more strange. Thinking about it, Lucas had indeed helped her a lot during this period of time... Now that he lacked a female companion, if she was not willing to help, wouldnât it be too unreasonable?
After thinking about it, Emily agreed immediately. âAlright, I agree.â
