Chapter 429 Were They Together Lucas looked at the stubborn little woman in front of him and felt very happy in his heart. However, he did not force Emily to admit it. Instead, he curled his lips and said in a gentle tone, âOkay, you are not unhappy. I was wrong. Can you accompany me to see guests?â âWhy should I accompany you to see guests?â Emily felt that what Lucas said was wrong. She was not a master, so what kind of guest was she meeting? However, Lucas did not give her a chance to refuse and pulled her away. Downstairs, Chase sat on the sofa. On the tea table in front of her, there were good things she had specially found to nourish Lucasâ body.
She heard footsteps coming from the stairs and immediately turned her head with a smile. âLucas...â Just as she said these two words, the smile on her face froze. Her eyes stared at the hands of Lucas and Emily, and the fire of jealousy in her heart could not be suppressed.
Lucas did not notice her strangeness. He brought Emily over and saw the preserved products on the coffee table. He directly refused.
âI donât need these things. You can take them back.â It was Emily who noticed Chase Smithâs sharp gaze. She felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to withdraw her hand. However, just as she moved, Lucas looked over. âWhatâs wrong?â âIâm a little thirsty. Let go. I want to get a glass of water.â Emily lied.
How could Lucas not see the helplessness in her eyes? He could only let go. After getting her freedom, Emily turned around and went to the kitchen. At this time, Chase finally came to her senses. She glanced in the direction that Emily had left and forced a smile. âIt seems that you and Doctor Armstrong have developed well. Are you together?â âWhat does it have to do with you?â
Lucas looked over indifferently. Chase choked, and her heart was even more uncomfortable. Fury surged in her chest. She clenched her fists tightly and took a deep breath. Then, she opened her mouth and said with a smile, âIt really has nothing to do with me. I was just asking casually.â Lucas looked at her and did not reply. Chase bit her lower lip and felt very embarrassed. For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room froze. After pouring the water, Emily came out and sensed the strange atmosphere between the two She pretended not to notice and walked over, sitting on the sofa next to her. She originally thought that she would be fine, but at this time, she saw Chase suddenly look at her. âDoctor Armstrong, I havenât asked yet. How is Lucasâ
health?â
Emily felt that this woman was very strange. Lucas was clearly next to her, but she did not ask Lucas. Instead, she ran over to ask herself.
She thought to herself, but she did not show it on her face. âThe wound has already healed, but the body needs to be nursed well.â
âSo thatâs how it is.â
Chase nodded and then grabbed Emily to chat awkwardly. Emily felt helpless and glanced at Lucas. That gaze seemed to say, âYou can deal with the people you have provoked yourself.â When Lucas saw this, a doting look flashed across his eyes. Then, he coldly ordered Chase to leave, âItâs getting late. I still need to rest, so I wonât keep Miss Smith here. Uncle Jack, see the guests out.â âYes.â
Uncle Jack, who was waiting at the side, accepted the order and went forward, making a gesture of invitation to Chase.
Seeing this, the expression on Chaseâs face immediately froze.
She secretly gritted her teeth, but she did not erupt in anger. She stood up with the corners of her mouth raised. âIn that case, Lucas, rest well. Iâll see you another day.â Lucas did not speak, as if he had not heard anything.
Chase had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Back in the car, she could no longer hold back the anger in her heart. âAh â damn it, why did you do this to me!â ChaÅe pounded the turntable hysterically, venting the anger in her heart. She stared at the villa in front of her with hatred in her eyes. Especially when she thought of the scene of Lucas and Emily holding hands downstairs, she had a desire to destroy everything. Emily and Lucas did not know this. After sending her away, Emily immediately found an excuse to leave. Lucas looked at her back in a panic. How could he not know that this little woman was hiding from him?
That evening, it was almost time for the two children to leave school. Lucas and Emily went to pick them up together. Along the way, the two little ones only talked about the interesting things that happened in the school. The cheerful laughter continued to ring in the carriage. Before they knew it, the group was back at Kings Garden. As soon as they got out of the car, Uncle Jack heard a noise and came out of the living room to greet them. He reported to Lucas, âYoung Master, Madam and Sir are here.â âI got it.â Lucas nodded and brought Emily and her children into the living room. In the living room, Greens family heard that Lucas had come back, so they specially came over to take a look and care about his health. They were not surprised to see Emily and her kids and Lucas coming back together. Obviously, they were well aware that Emily lived in Kings Garden. On the other hand, the two little ones were very happy to see Peiying and called out to her. âGrandma!â âHey, Grandma, Ethan, Sofia, did you miss Grandma?â
