Chapter 116 No One Was Allowed to Snatch Him Away Feeling Chase Smithâs gaze, Emily was obviously a little embarrassed.
Did she disturb something? Hiding the thoughts in her eyes, she nodded at Chase Smith, then followed Lucas and left. Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Chase Smith was even more shocked. She stood where she was and felt her blood go cold. She had known Lucas for so long, but she had never seen a woman appear by his side.
Although it was just a few words...
She clearly saw that Lucasâ attitude towards that woman was completely different from his attitude towards her!
For a moment, confusion and doubt welled up in her heart.
Chase Smith clenched her fists, her face pale. What was the relationship between them... At this time, Mason walked out of the office. âAssistant Mason,â Chase Smith hurriedly called out. Mason nodded and said, âMiss Smith, whatâs wrong?â âIs the lady just now a client of Lucasâ company?â Chase Smith asked directly. âNo.â Mason shook his head. âThen who is she? Why is she in the company?â Chase Smith asked one question after another. Her eyes were anxious and obviously nervous. She stared at Mason, as if waiting for his answer. Masonâs expression was cold as he said in a formal manner, âIâm sorry, Miss Smith. This is the presidentâs matter. Itâs not convenient for us to reveal it.â Seeing that she could not get any useful information, Chase Smith could only give up. The corners of her lips curled up, and her smile was somewhat forced. âAlright, then Iâll be leaving first. Iâll come back another day.â With that, she left directly. Back in the car, Chase Smithâs face instantly sank.
Her strong sixth sense told her that the woman just now was not that simple!
Without thinking, she took out her phone and dialed a string of numbers. âMiss,â the manâs voice came from the other side of the line. Chase Smith hummed softly and her eyes darkened. She said coldly, âCheck the identity of the woman who has been close to Lucas recently.â The man who spoke was called Xiao Li. He had been by Chase Smithâs side for a period of time.
The last time, it was he who followed Lucas. After hearing the instructions, Xiao Li immediately accepted the order and replied, âYes, Miss.â
After hanging up the phone, Chase Smithâs face turned even darker, and her eyes seemed to be poisoned.
She would never allow anyone to snatch him away.
Over here.
Lucas and Emily had already arrived at the dining room. Sitting in the seat, Emily didnât avoid it and asked with a smile, âMr.
Greens, the young lady just now seemed to be familiar with you? Wouldnât it be bad if we just came over to eat and left her alone there?â
Thinking of the womanâs eyes just now, Emily felt a little strange. Lucas flipped through the menu and replied, âWe are not very familiar with each other.â
Then, as if he was explaining, he added, âOur two families are old friends, and we have always been in contact with each other in business. Recently, she just happened to be home, so t work we have some contact.â
After listening, Emily just nodded and did not ask any more questions. Although Lucas did not say it, she could also see it. The way that woman looked at Lucas was not so simple. Now it seemed highly likely that her interest in him was not reciprocated.
âSee if thereâs anything you want to eat.â Lucas handed the menu to Emily and pointed at a few dishes. âThese are all not bad.
Letâs try them all.â âAlright, letâs try them then.â Emily looked over. The waiter served the dishes, and in an instant, Emilyâs taste buds couldnât help but be aroused. These dishes looked and smelled good. Emily picked up the chopsticks. âI wonât be polite. Iâll try it first.â The next second, the fragrance of the dishes spread in her mouth. âDelicious,â she said with surprise in her eyes. Looking at the little woman, Lucas couldnât help but smile, âEat more if itâs delicious.â During the meal, Lucas seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, âBy the way, are you sure you can handle the remaining problems on Armstrong familyâs side?â
Thinking back to Armstrong familyâs annoying appearance, Lucas subconsciously felt a little worried. âIf there is something you canât handle, you can tell me.â âThank you, Mr. Greens. Itâs fine. I can handle it.â Emily smiled gently. Lucas had already helped her a lot. She didnât want to owe him anymore. Although she said this, Emily was also very clear in her heart.
She knew that Armstrong familyâs people would not spit out the shares so quickly. As for the specific situation, she would have to wait until Lu Shizhou had investigated it thoroughly before she could make a decision. For those people who loved money as much as their lives to give up the shares, it was simply taking their lives. âAlright.â Hearing this, Lucas nodded. After dinner, Lucas got up and the two of them walked out the door. âDoctor Armstrong, do you want to go home now or go to the villa to take a look?â Emily thought for a moment and said, âI still have to go to the villa to take a look. The newly planted medicinal herbs need to be carefully protected. If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome.â
