Chapter 116

Chapter 116 No One Was Allowed to Snatch Him Away Feeling Chase Smith’s gaze, Emily was obviously a little embarrassed. Did she disturb something? Hiding the thoughts in her eyes, she nodded at Chase Smith, then followedLucas 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 hadnever seen a woman appear by his side. Although it was just a few words… She clearly saw that Lucas’ attitude towards that woman was completely different from his attitudetowards 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. “Assistant Mason,” Chase Smith hurriedly called out. Mason noddedand said, “Miss Smith, what’s wrong?” “Is the lady just now a client of Lucas’ company?” Chase Smithasked directly. “No.” Mason shook his head. “Then who is she? Why is she in the company?” ChaseSmith asked one question after another. Her eyes were anxious and obviously nervous. She stared atMason, as if waiting for his answer. Mason’s expression was cold as he said in a formal manner, “I’msorry, Miss Smith. This is the president’s matter. It’s not convenient for us to reveal it.” Seeing that shecould not get any useful information, Chase Smith could only give up. The corners of her lips curled up,and her smile was somewhat forced. “Alright, then I’ll be leaving first. I’ll come back another day.” Withthat, she left directly. Back in the car, Chase Smith’s 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. “Miss,” the man’s voice camefrom the other side of the line. Chase Smith hummed softly and her eyes darkened. She said coldly,“Check the identity of the woman who has been close to Lucas recently.” The man who spoke wascalled Xiao Li. He had been by Chase Smith’s side for a period of time.

The last time, it was he who followed Lucas. After hearing the instructions, Xiao Li immediatelyaccepted the order and replied, “Yes, Miss.” After hanging up the phone, Chase Smith’s face turned even darker, and her eyes seemed to bepoisoned. 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 didn’t avoid it andasked with a smile, “Mr. Greens, the young lady just now seemed to be familiar with you? Wouldn’t it bebad if we just came over to eat and left her alone there?” Thinking of the woman’s eyes just now, Emily felt a little strange. Lucas flipped through the menu andreplied, “We are not very familiar with each other.” Then, as if he was explaining, he added, “Our two families are old friends, and we have always been incontact with each other in business. Recently, she just happened to be home, so t work we have somecontact.” 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 highlylikely that her interest in him was not reciprocated. “See if there’s anything you want to eat.” Lucashanded the menu to Emily and pointed at a few dishes. “These are all not bad. Let’s try them all.”“Alright, let’s try them then.” Emily looked over. The waiter served the dishes, and in an instant, Emily’staste buds couldn’t help but be aroused. These dishes looked and smelled good. Emily picked up the chopsticks. “I won’t be polite. I’lltry it first.” The next second, the fragrance of the dishes spread in her mouth. “Delicious,” she said withsurprise in her eyes. Looking at the little woman, Lucas couldn’t help but smile, “Eat more if it’sdelicious.” During the meal, Lucas seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, “By the way,are you sure you can handle the remaining problems on Armstrong family’s side?” Thinking back to Armstrong family’s annoying appearance, Lucas subconsciously felt a little worried. “Ifthere is something you can’t handle, you can tell me.” “Thank you, Mr. Greens. It’s fine. I can handle it.”

Emily smiled gently. Lucas had already helped her a lot. She didn’t want to owe him anymore. Althoughshe said this, Emily was also very clear in her heart. She knew that Armstrong family’s people would not spit out the shares so quickly. As for the specificsituation, she would have to wait until Lu Shizhou had investigated it thoroughly before she could makea decision. For those people who loved money as much as their lives to give up the shares, it wassimply taking their lives. “Alright.” Hearing this, Lucas nodded. After dinner, Lucas got up and the two ofthem walked out the door. “Doctor Armstrong, do you want to go home now or go to the villa to take alook?” Emily thought for a moment and said, “I still have to go to the villa to take a look. The newlyplanted medicinal herbs need to be carefully protected. If something goes wrong, it will betroublesome.”
