Chapter 167 He Had No Feelings for Her Later in the evening, Peiying and Zhenting also arrived at the banquet. Another exchange of greetings. The atmosphere was getting better and better.
Peiying looked at the beautiful Chase and couldnât help but praise, âChase is really beautiful tonight. I noticed you the moment I came in.â âAuntie, you flatter me. You look very good tonight.â Chase pretended to be shy and lowered her head, but she couldnât help but look at Lucas beside her with expectation in her eyes. Unfortunately, the man never gave her a look.
Was she not beautiful enough tonight?
Why was this man not willing to look her in the eye At this moment, Chase felt an indescribable sense of defeat in his heart.
Gwen also noticed that her daughterâs mood had changed, and she knew why her daughter was worried.
She patted the back of her daughterâs hand without leaving a trace and comforted her silently.
It was also at this time that she suddenly changed the topic and smiled at Lucas, âSpeaking of which, there is something I have to apologize to Lucas on behalf of our Chase.â Hearing this, Lucas frowned. Greens family was also stunned, as if they did not expect Gwen to suddenly say this. However, before they could say anything, Gwen continued to speak to Lucas, âI know that Chase did something silly and made you unhappy. Auntie Smith hopes that you donât forget. This girl has been spoiled by me and her father since she was a child. If you are unhappy, just scold her.â. âYour Auntie Smith is right. This child has been spoiled by us. She only cares about herself when doing things. Please forgive her. She will never do such a thing again.â James also spoke up from the side. He knew that the purpose of tonightâs banquet was to ease the relationship between his daughter and Lucas. In the face of such a serious apology from the two elders, Lucas could not help but frown. As for Peiying, seeing that her son did not speak for a long time, she could not help but speak up for him.
Although what Chase Smith did was wrong, in the end, she was the future daughter-in-law that she liked. She could not let the two be so distant. âLucas, why arenât you saying anything? Itâs been so long, and you still care about that matter?â
When these words came out, Chase Smith became nervous and stared at Lucas.
Lucas naturally noticed her gaze, but he didnât intend to pay attention to it. He said indifferently, âI wonât take that matter to heart.
Itâs not a big deal.â Hearing this, not only did Chase Smith relax, but Smith familyâs parents also breathed a sigh of relief.
Because there were other guests to greet, the few of them chatted for a while and then separated.
Chase Smith followed her parents to greet the people she was familiar with. Lucas also quickly separated from his parents. To be precise, Zhenting felt that his sonâs existence had stolen the attention of his wife, so he took her to the garden. As for greeting the guests, he believed that Lucas could do it well. In fact, it was indeed the case. Lucas was rather good at this kind of job.
However, he was impatient with such social activities and quickly found a corner with fewer people. He didnât want to talk to people anymore. Gradually, those company bosses were tactful enough not to disturb him. On the other side, after Chase Smith accompanied her parents to socialize, she could not wait to leave.
âDad, Mom, I am going to look for Lucas. If you have something to do, send someone to find me.â After she finished speaking, she picked up the corner of her skirt and ran off. Looking at her leaving in a hurry, the couple shook their heads. James sighed and said, âDaughters really canât be kept when they grow up.â Although Gwen didnât say anything, she agreed with these words.
Chase Smith didnât know this. She walked to the place near Lucas and stopped. She adjusted her appearance and made sure there was no problem. Then she walked over gracefully with a glass of wine.
âLucas.â
âMiss Smith, whatâs the matter?â
Lucas frowned and said indifferently. Chase Smith didnât care. She made a toast gesture and said gracefully, âItâs nothing. I just want to apologize for what I did before. I shouldnât have done that. Iâm really sorry.â After she finished speaking, she raised her head and drank all the wine in the cup. Then, she smiled sweetly at Lucas. Unfortunately, Lucasâ expression was still indifferent, and there were no ripples in his eyes. âI canât drink. As for the past, itâs all in the past.â Although he said this, he still had no feelings for Chase Smith in his heart.
It was just that the others didnât know.
Everyone looked at the two of them standing together. The atmosphere was very harmonious. They were talking and laughing, and they began to guess.. âLooking at the interaction between the two, is the rumored marriage alliance true?â âIâm not too sure, but it should be true. Otherwise, with Mr. Greensâ temper, how could he let Miss Smith family get close?â
âIt makes sense. It seems that marriage is coming. I just donât know when Smith family and Greens family will officially announce it.â âBut if the two families are really connected by marriage, Y Cityâs sky will change.â
