Chapter 148 Wait and See âAlright, since thatâs the case, I wonât disturb you anymore. Rest early. Good night.â
âGood night.â After saying goodnight to each other, the two of them hung up the phone. Lucas put away his phone. In an instant, his eyes darkened and were covered with frost. This Chase Smith challenged his bottom line again and again. Now, it was really disgusting. No, he had to get rid of this woman. Thinking about it, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The next day. In the office, Lucas said to Mason, âGo inform Chase and ask her out for lunch.â âYes, President.â Mason nodded.
When she received Masonâs call, Chase was extremely happy. She nodded and couldnât wait to accept it.â âOkay.â When she got off work in the afternoon, she immediately rushed over to attend the appointment. Before Lucas came, Chase was already sitting in her seat.
Her heart was jumping with joy. She repeatedly picked up the mirror to refix her makeup. Only after making sure it was perfect did she stop. It seemed that Auntie Edwardsâs words worked. Just as she was thinking about it, the next second, Lucas came in with Mason from outside the door. âLucas, youâre here?â Chase quickly stood up. âMm,â Lucas replied, his attitude extremely cold. âLucas, this is the menu. Iâve already ordered a few dishes just now. Take a look and see if thereâs anything else to add.â
Chase picked up the menu and handed it to Lucas with a face full of enthusiasm. However, Lucas did not have the slightest intention of picking it up. âNo need,â he said coldly. For a moment, Chase Smithâs hand that was holding the menu felt a little awkward.
âOkay,â she smiled. It was only then that she noticed that Lucasâ mood today was a little off. Although Lucas was usually not warm to her, he was not as cold as he was today. Other than his indifference, there was also disgust...
Yes, it was disgust. âLucas, you specially asked me to come over today... do you have something to say?â Chase asked in confusion. âMiss Smith, I came here today to tell you that I have no interest in you at all. As for marriage, I donât have this intention.â Lucas said coldly. âSo, Miss Smith, donât waste your time. Itâs just unnecessary to mention it in the future.â
His words made his attitude very clear. Chase sat in her seat, feeling a little embarrassed. She clenched her fists, her face alternating between green and white. âLucas, you, what do you mean by this?â A hint of impatience flashed through Lucasâ eyes.
âMiss Smith still doesnât know what I mean? Am I not clear enough? Must I be a little more straightforward?â All along, Chase had always been a proud daughter of heaven. How many people had chased after her? When had she ever been wronged like this?
Being warned like this by Lucas, she was obviously a little angry.
âYou sure have no interest in me, because you are hooked on Doctor Armstrong, right?â Chase suddenly raised her eyes and gritted her teeth. She shouted, staring into Lucasâ eyes. Lucas remained unmoved and replied indifferently, âThatâs not what Miss Smith should worry about.â
Although he didnât admit it, he didnât refute it either.
Chase sat on the chair, even more unwilling. âLucas, what exactly is wrong with me? Whether it is my family background or in other aspects, only I am the one who is the most suitable for you! Why canât I marry you!â She frowned, her face full of confusion.
âWhat exactly is wrong with me? Tell me, I can change it.â Lucas patiently explained.
âMiss Smith, I think you are mistaken. It has nothing to do with family background or other things. The woman I, Lucas, want to marry can only be someone I love.â
In other words, he did not love Chase at all. No matter how much effort she put in, it was useless. âIn addition, Doctor Armstrong and I are just ordinary friends. Miss Smith, donât be too self-righteous and go find trouble with Doctor Armstrong again. I only remind you this once. If there is a next time, donât blame me for being impolite.â Lucasâ words were cold and heartless, not giving Chase any face at all. In Chase Smithâs heart, she was already extremely angry, her face pale. She gritted her teeth and asked, âSo it was Doctor Armstrong who told you that I find trouble with her?â âNo,â Lucas said coldly. âDoctor Armstrong just said that you seem to have misunderstood something, so she let me explain it to you. As for the rest, I have already clarified. Iâll forget about it this time, but pay attention in the future. Miss Smith, there will be no next time.â Before Chase could speak again, Lucasâ
voice sounded again. âAlright, letâs stop here for today. I have something to do and will leave first.â âIâll treat you to this meal. Miss Smith, please eat whatever you like.â After coldly saying this, Lucas got up and left. From beginning to end, he did not even spare Chase a glance. At this moment, Chase had no appetite. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling and her little face was deathly pale.
âMiss Smith, do you still want me to serve the remaining dishes?â The waiter walked up to her and asked.
The waiterâs words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
She bit her lower lip. âAll of you, scram!â Emilyâs gaze was filled with hatred, as if she had been poisoned.
Emily, I will remember you!
Just you wait!
