Chapter 424 It Was Pretty Good Now As her thoughts wandered, Emily walked in front of Lucas, but she did not dare to look directly at the man in front of her. âLie down. I will apply the medicine for you.â âJust apply the medicine like this.â
Lucas did not want to lie down.
The reason why he said that was because he was sitting and applying medicine. It was like he was holding Emily in his arms.
Emily did not notice his thoughts. In the end, she did not force him. She could only bend down and apply medicine for him. This action also made the two of them get very close. Lucas looked at the serious little woman in front of him, his eyes deep.
Especially when he felt a warm touch on his chest, it made him have an impulse to hug the little woman in front of him. However, he did not do so in the end and restrained himself. He was very clear that Emily might not say anything when he was joking and occasionally crossed the line once or twice, but once he advanced and revealed his thoughts, this little woman would definitely avoid him. Emily did not think too much about it. Because once she got focused on her job, she would become very serious and have no distracting thoughts. After a group of people, she finished applying medicine to Lucas and bandaged him again. Then she straightened up, took a step back, and said, âOkay, you have a good rest. I will call you when we have dinner later.â âOkay.â
Lucas nodded and lay down on the bed. Seeing this, Emily turned and left the room.
The next morning, Emily was a little worried about Lucasâ injury. She got up early and came to Lucasâ room. âMr. Greens, are you awake?â âCome in.â Lucasâ slightly hoarse voice came out of the phone. Emily pushed the door open and saw the man sitting by the edge of the bed in a bathrobe. Seeing her, Lucas asked, âWhy did you come here?â âI came to see your wound.â Emily said. âIâm fine now, you donât have to worry,â Lucas said with a smile. Even so, Emily still insisted on checking it out.
There was no other way. Lucas could only take off his bathrobe and reveal his strong chest.
Emily leaned closer to check and found that the wound had already scabbed and there were no signs of infection around. She was relieved. âRest at home today, lest your wound opens up again.â As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. Although Lucas knew that she was doing this for her own good, he still shook his head and refused. âIt doesnât matter. Besides, we promised Ethan that we would go to Huanqiu Cinema today. If it were canceled, the little fellow wouldnât be happy.â Emily frowned, thinking that Lucas spoiled the two children too much. But before she could say anything, the manâs pleasant voice rang in her ears again. âAnd I donât want the little fellow to think that Iâm biased.â Speak of the devil... The two little ones poked their heads in from outside the door. Originally, they had come to see if their uncle was up, but they had not expected to find that their mother was also there. Moreover, she was so close to their uncle, and it seemed like they were kissing. âMommy, Uncle, are you two kissing?â Sofia immediately looked at the two of them with bright eyes. As soon as she said this, her brother covered her mouth and said, âIdiot, what are you talking about? Arenât you disturbing Mommy and Uncle?â
Ethan covered the little girlâs mouth and pulled her out of the room. He did not forget to laugh at the two adults in the room.
âMommy, Uncle, you can continue. I will come back later with my sister.â Emily and Lucas watched the two children leave the room and close the door thoughtfully. They didnât know whether to laugh or cry. Especially Emily, who was angrily shy. âWell, the child doesnât know the situation. Nonsense, donât mind it.â âWhat if I mind?â
Lucas looked up, his eyes deep, as if he wanted to suck someone in. Emily looked at him, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. She didnât dare to look at the man in front of her. Her eyes drifted, and she changed the topic, âDidnât you say you wanted to accompany Ethan to Huanqiu Cinema? Then get up quickly, Iâll go downstairs to see if breakfast is ready!â After saying this, she turned around and wanted to run. However, just as she took a step, her wrist was grabbed, and the manâs deep voice sounded in her ear. âWhat I said to you before was serious. I wonât force you, but I hope you can seriously consider it. After all, escaping is not a solution.â Although these words had no rhyme or reason, Emily inexplicably knew what Lucas meant. But she didnât want to think about it at all. She pursed her lips and forcefully broke away from Lucasâ hand. She took two steps forward, but she couldnât help but stop again. She turned her back to Lucas with a secretive expression. Seeing this, Lucas didnât urge her and just quietly looked at her. Emily sensed something and did not look back. She took a deep breath and said slowly, âBesides, the relationship between you and me is not as simple as it was in the past. There are still many things between us. In fact, it is quite good. I donât want to change for the time being.â After saying this, she walked out of the room without looking back.
