Chapter 276 Extort Money from Him Hearing Mr. Hawkingâs words, Lucas also knew that the workload of this matter was very large.
He frowned and was about to say something when he heard Mr. Hawking speak again.
âAlthough the workload is heavy, it concerns Ms. Armstrongâs innocence. This old man will give it all to find the evidence. If I canât do it, there is still Old Man Meng!â
âThen Iâll have to trouble you two elders. If there is any news, please inform me immediately.â
Lucas said gratefully. Mr. Hawking expressed his understanding. Then, the two of them chatted for a while before Lucas left. It was already evening. He was a little worried about the two children at home.
After all, so many things had happened today, and he was worried that the two children would have trauma in their hearts.
In fact, it was indeed so.
Although the two little ones were brought home by Lucas, their intelligence was superior. They knew what had happened to their mother and were very worried.
In the afternoon, they sat on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Lucas to come back and understand the situation.
Later, when they heard the noise coming from the door, they immediately looked up. âLucas, you are back!â
The two little ones spoke in unison. Then, they anxiously jumped off the sofa and ran over. They ran to Lucas and asked eagerly, âLucas, is our mommy alright? When can she be released?â Seeing the worried expressions of the two little ones, Lucas was silent for a moment, not knowing how to answer Because there was no strong evidence, he could not guarantee when Emily would come out. Perhaps because they saw the meaning of Lucasâs silence, the two little bright eyes gradually dimmed. Lucas also noticed it and quickly comforted her. âDonât worry, I will find a way to save your mommy as soon as possible.â
âYes, we believe in Lucas.â
The two little ones nodded and looked at Lucas with trust.
Seeing this, Lucas silently rubbed the heads of the two little ones and immediately asked, âHave you eaten?â âNot yet.â Sofia shook her head, her voice low. Ethan also drooped his head, obviously not having the appetite to eat. Lucas naturally could see that. He coaxed the two little ones and said softly, âYou canât not eat. Otherwise, your mommy will be worried.â The two little ones heard this and were also sensible. They followed Lucas to eat obediently.
At the same time, Vivian and Lu Shizhou also rushed to the police station.
âEmily, what the hell is going on?â After seeing Emily, the two of them anxiously asked about the situation. Emily did not hide anything and roughly explained the situation. In the end, she said in a deep voice, âI can be sure that there is no such medicine as musk on my prescription. I just donât know why Li Dongqiang wants to frame me!â âWhy else? He must be trying to get money from you!â
Vivian gnashed her teeth.
Lu Shizhouâs expression wasnât any better. His voice was cold as he said, âI will send someone to investigate this matter.â
As he spoke, he changed the topic and asked, âOh right, where are Grandmother and the two children? You had an accident.
They should be very worried. I will take them to my place to take care of them in the next few days.â âThank you, but there is no need. Mr. Greens has helped me settle them down.â Emily thanked him softly. When Vivian heard this, she raised her eyebrows without leaving a trace.
However, the current situation did not allow him to think too much. After they said a few more words, it was time to go. Lu Shizhou and Vivian had to leave.
The next morning, Lucas was eating breakfast with the two little ones. At this time, the housekeeper came over and reported, âYoung Master, Assistant Mason is here.â
âOk. Take him to the study upstairs and wait.â
Lucas nodded and ordered.
Then, he looked at the two little ones who were staring at him and whispered, âAfter dinner, I will ask Butler to send you to school for lessons. When you come back at night, I will tell you the latest news about your mommy, okay?â âOkay, thank you, Lucas.â
Ethan thanked him with a serious face.
He felt that now he was the only young man in the family, so he had to shoulder the responsibility of the family. Lucas also saw it and looked at him with a bit of amusement, but also a bit of heartache.
Later, after dinner and sending off the two little ones, he turned and went to the study on the second floor.
In the study, Mason saw him come in and immediately stood up from the sofa respectfully.
âPresident.â
âHave a seat.â
Lucas raised his hand to signal for Mason to sit down, then continued to ask, âHas the matter been investigated?â
Mason nodded and reported.
âI found out that Li Dongqiang owes money, a total of four million. I suspect that this medical accident was premeditated by him, in order to extort Doctor Armstrong to help him pay back the money.â
Without any surprise, Lucasâs expression was very grave, and his whole body emitted an oppressive cold air.
Obviously, at this moment, he was really angry.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously, his deep and dark eyes filled with ice, and then his thin lips lightly opened, âOther than this, have you found any other clues?â
