Chapter 344: Chapter 347

Chapter 347 Why Are You Avoiding Me Emily was very reluctant to invite Lucas to dinner at home. However, she could not persuade her grandmother, so she could only send a message to Lucas sullenly. “Mr. Greens, my grandmother said that she wanted to invite you to dinner at home tonight to thank you for your help last night.” || When Lucas received the news, he was in a meeting. He rubbed the screen of his phone. His originally cold and dark facial features gradually softened. The corners of his lips also rose. Obviously, he was in a good mood.

When the executives present saw this, they all heaved a sigh of relief. Although they did not know who sent their president a message, they were grateful to that person for being able to appease the violent president. That night, Lucas brought the toys he had bought for the two little ones to the Armstrong family’s apartment. When they arrived, Emily was cooking in the kitchen.

Lucas said hello and accompanied the two little ones to play in the living room.

The laughter of joy came from the living room to the kitchen from time to time. When Emily listened, her mood was very complicated and she was often distracted. She did not know what choice she should make in this matter. Just as her thoughts drifted away, her finger was suddenly cut.

“Ah-”

She cried out in pain, and the kitchen knife in her hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

When Lucas heard the sound in the living room, he immediately rushed into the kitchen worriedly As soon as he entered, he saw Emily’s bleeding finger. His eyes were full of heartache. “Why were you so careless?” As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed Emily’s wrist. He naturally put Emily’s injured finger into his mouth and shouted. That warm and humid touch directly stunned Emily. She looked at Lucas with dull eyes. Obviously, she did not expect Lucas to do this. Fortunately, it did not take long for her to regain her senses, and she wanted to pull her hand out, but she found that she could not. “Well, I am fine now.” Emily said with a complicated look in her eyes. The implication was to make Lucas release it. Lucas naturally understood and slowly let go of Emily. At this time, the fingers that he had kissed stopped bleeding. Seeing this, Emily softly thanked him, “Thank you. Everything is fine here. Mr. Greens, go out.” As she spoke, she picked up the kitchen knife that had fallen on the ground and did not look at Lucas.

Lucas naturally noticed that the woman was distancing herself. His eyes narrowed slightly and his expression was secretive.

Originally, he thought that Emily had returned to normal so she had taken the initiative to invite him over to eat. But now it seemed that he had thought wrongly. This woman, for some unknown reason, was now avoiding him! Emily did not realize that.

She put the kitchen knife on the chopping board and turned to look for the medicine box for a plaster.

However, just as she took two steps, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone. Without waiting for her to struggle, Lucas’ low and displeased voice sounded in her ears.

“Come with me!”

With that, Lucas pulled Emily towards the door. “Lucas, what are you doing? Let me go!” Emily reacted and struggled.

“Let’s talk!”

Lucas turned around and said lightly, then continued to pull Emily away. In the living room, Lucy and the two little ones only saw the two of them disappear at the door, and only then did they react. “Brother, is uncle bullying Mommy?” “Are we going to help Mommy?” Sofia looked over with a conflicted expression.

When Ethan heard this, he frowned, not knowing what to do.

“Why don’t we follow them and take a look?”

He asked hesitantly. Just as the two little ones were about to chase after them, Lucy quickly reached out and grabbed them. “Great-grandma, what are you pulling us for? The two little ones turned around in confusion.

Lucy looked at them and said gently, “Don’t disturb them. Let’s go cook. When they finish talking later, we can eat.” As she spoke, the old lady looked in the direction of the door with a worried look in her eyes.

She hoped that the conversation between the two children would go smoothly. However, things did not go as she wished. Emily followed Lucas to the safe passage with no one around and finally broke free from the man’s control. “I want to go back!” After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. But how could Lucas allow it? He stepped in front of Emily and said with a heavy expression, “Give me a few minutes. Let’s talk.” Seeing such a man, Emily became more panicked and nervous. “I don’t want to talk, and there is nothing to talk about. Let me go.” Lucas looked at the little woman who turned her head away and did not dare to look at him. His eyes became darker. “Why don’t you dare to look at me and talk? Do you have something to hide?” “Why wouldn’t I dare to look at you? Don’t talk nonsense!” Emily glared at him as if she was a cat that had been stepped on its tail.

“Alright, then tell me, why are you avoiding me? Did something happen or did someone say something?” Lucas looked straight into Emily’s eyes and clutched her shoulders tightly, not allowing the little woman in front of him to escape. Hearing this, and then looking at the man’s expression that looked innocent, Emily felt a surge of anger from the bottom of her heart.
