Chapter 179 She Was More Likeable The West Mountain Resort was a resort that Greens family had spent several years to build, and it was about to be completed.
And this matter was no longer a secret in Y City. Chase had already figured that on the day of the opening, Lucas would definitely go to the resort. When the time came, she would go to Auntie Edwards to get a coupon and then take the opportunity to improve her relationship with Lucas in the resort. However, she never expected that Lucas would go to the resort so early. He even brought Emily! âWhy did you bring this woman? Why!?â Chase held the phone and frowned. She could not understand no matter how she thought about it. Or perhaps, she didnât dare to think too deeply about this guess... It was impossible for Lucas to fall for a woman with children already instead of her, right?
Although Chase felt that this was impossible, she still didnât want to continue being passive like this.
No matter what, she had to find a way to stop Lucas and that woman from getting close to her first!
Thinking of this, Chase put away her phone and got up to find her mother. âMommy, are you asleep?â
She stood at the door and knocked. After a while, Gwenâs voice came from the room, âCome in, I am still up.â Hearing this, Chase pushed the door open and walked in. She saw her mother sitting alone at the head of the bed. âDad hasnât come back yet?â âYes, he said he has a dinner party and will be back in a while.â Gwen roughly said it, then changed the topic and asked, âWhy are you here?â Chase did not hide anything and told her the purpose of her visit.
âMommy, I hope you can help me get Auntie Edwards out tomorrow and help me get a coupon for the West Mountain Resort.â
âGot it. I will go to meet her tomorrow.â
Gwen nodded in agreement. She didnât ask her daughter what she was doing with this coupon. She knew that her daughter was doing this for Lucas.
The next afternoon, in an elegant cafe. Gwen and Peiying sat face-to-face on the sofa, drinking coffee. The atmosphere was very harmonious. After chatting for a while, Gwen mentioned the purpose of this meeting. âPeiying, there is something I have to trouble you with.â âWhat is it? Why are you so polite?â
Peiying looked over in surprise. Gwen pretended to be embarrassed and said, âChase, that girl, has always wanted to go to the resort in West Mountain, so she entrusted me to ask you for a coupon.â Peiying couldnât help but laugh when she heard this.
âWhat coupon? Tell Chase that if she wants to go, just go. I will inform Lucas about it. Thereâs no need to get a coupon.â âI said the same thing, but that girl... sigh.â Gwen pretended to sigh in distress.
Peiying was puzzled. âWhat happened to Chase?â Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Gwen curled the corners of her lips without leaving a trace. Then she slowly said, âShe likes Lucas and doesnât dare to take any action. She is also afraid of making Lucas unhappy. So, she entrusted me to ask you.â As she spoke, she paused and said with embarrassment, âI have no other meaning in saying this. I just feel that I am too old to worry about her matters. I tell her. If you like him, just go pursue him. But sheâs so reserved. I donât know when sheâll be able to express her feelings.â Originally, her words were a bit probing. She wanted to see Peiyingâs attitude towards her daughter chasing after Lucas. As a result, Peiying smiled and said, âAs a girl, itâs better to be reserved. Itâs likable.â Gwen choked. Fortunately, she covered it up in time and nodded along with Peiyingâs words.
âThatâs true. Itâs good to be more reserved. As a girl, being reserved is more likable.â Then the two of them complimented each other, and Gwen changed the topic again. âThen, Iâll have to trouble you about the resort.â âThereâs no trouble, no trouble. Itâs not a big deal at all.â
Peiying waved her hand and said indifferently.
Gwen was overjoyed and sat with her for a while.
After almost an hour, she found an excuse to leave.
Peiying watched Gwen leave, but she was not in a hurry to go back. She sat in her original position and took out her phone to call Lucas. After a while, the manâs deep and cold voice came from the phone.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âWhere are you now?â
Peiying asked with a smile.
Lucas answered truthfully, âIâm at the resort hotel in West Mountain. What can I do for you?â
Unexpectedly, just as he said this, his motherâs surprised voice came from the phone.
âAre you there for the open ceremony? But you can just ask someone to do this kind of thing. Why did you go so early?â âI came here to rest for a few days,â Lucas said. Hearing this, Peiying did not think too much and asked a few words of concern. âAre you alone?â
âNo, there are also Doctor Armstrong and Mason.â Lucas did not hide anything. Even so, Peiying was even more surprised.
Mason was his assistant. It was reasonable for him to be there. But what happened to Emily!?
