Chapter 380 It Was Young Madam Greensâ Responsibility Emily and the others enjoyed the meal in harmony. The happiest person was Peiying. If Zhenting had not called, she would not have been willing to go back. After a simple farewell, Emily sent Peiying downstairs. On the way, she still couldnât hold back and asked, âMrs. Greens, it might be a little presumptuous of me to ask this, but I still want to ask, how is Mr. Greensâ situation abroad?â Hearing this, Peiying turned her head to look at her. âI thought you wouldnât ask.â As she spoke, she couldnât help but stop in her tracks. With a complicated look in her eyes, she said, âYou know why I didnât agree with you being together with Lucas before. Because your birth is simply unable to help Lucas. For example, if you were the daughter of a certain powerful family, the things that Lucas encountered would be easily resolved, and he wouldnât be facing these things alone outside right now.â When these words came out, Emilyâs expression froze, and her heart was constantly surging with emotions. It was very uncomfortable. But before she could say anything, Mrs. Greens suddenly changed the topic and sighed. âAlthough his father and I donât think well of you, you are still...â Originally, Peiying wanted to say that she was the childrenâs mother, but when she thought about it, her son had not told Emily about it, so she swallowed her words back and changed it to, âLucas has taken a fancy to you and is determined. For you, he almost abandoned his parents.â Hearing this, it would be a lie to say that Emily was unhappy.
Peiying also saw it and felt a little sad. âAlthough we wonât force Lucas, we wonât easily agree to this unless Doctor Armstrong proves to us that you can take the responsibility of Young Madam of Greens family.â Emily was stunned and surprised when she saw Mrs. Greensâ sharp gaze. She never expected that Mrs. Greens would make such a request. However, she was not even a boyfriend or girlfriend with Lucas now. She did not know how to answer this. Moreover, she also felt a little guilty in her heart.
She did not forget how she had retorted that she had nothing to do with Lucas.
Just as she was embarrassed and at a loss, a black car stopped at the gate of the community.
Zhenting came down from the top and saw that Emily and Peiying were at the gate. He could not help but be disappointed and asked, âWhere are the two children?â âThe two children are doing homework at home.â
Peiying did not wait for Emily to answer and took the initiative to speak. Then she said goodbye to Emily, âDoctor Armstrong, good night.â âGood night.â Emily nodded to bid farewell. Seeing the two cars gradually disappear into the streets, she breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart became heavy. Obviously, what Mrs. Greens said just now still affected her, making her not know what to do.
However, when she thought about it again, she and Lucas were not even a couple yet. It was obviously useless to think about this. Because of this, she quickly threw this matter to the back of her mind. Or it could be said that she had consciously forgotten it.
In New York. After three days of investigation, Mason finally found the culprit behind the collapse of the gold mine. âAlthough the scene of the accident was a blind spot in the surveillance cameras, after multiple investigations and inquiries, we have locked onto a suspect, Harold.â Mason reported to Lucas respectfully, âThis is a patrol on the mine. Several days before the incident, someone often saw him wandering around the place where the accident happened. And the most suspicious thing is that this person is good at gambling. After work every day, he would gamble. But during those days, he did not go to the casino. At the same time, he was secretly transferring his property and handling the immigration procedures.â Lucasâs face went terribly cold.
âSince you have found the person, go catch him. After you find out who is behind this, send him to the police station.â Lucas ordered in a low voice, then narrowed his eyes and looked back. âAs for Zhenhong, itâs time to close the net. Send the order to suppress the stock and business of Zhenhong Group.â Mason nodded in agreement and turned to instruct the people below.
That night, Harold, who was about to run away, was captured and brought back by Mason.
Lucas did not participate in the interrogation. Instead, he gave full authority to Mason. As for him, he was in charge of the counterattack against the Zhenhong Group. Moreover, he did not use any tricks, but directly used an open scheme to declare war on the Zhenhong Group. When Y Cityâs wealthy businessmen learned of this news, they were all shocked by Lucasâ iron-
blooded methods. In less than a day, the Zhenhong Group lost hundreds of millions, and it was still ongoing. In the office, Ruan Xun heard his assistant report the situation of the company. His face was terribly gloomy. He was about the same age as Lucas, but his temperament and appearance were worlds apart.
If one were to describe Lucas as a noble son, then he would be an unremarkable commoner. It was only because of his good luck that he had such a noble status.
âAre you all trash? You canât even win over our clients of so many years. What use do I have for you?â
