Chapter 130

Chapter 130 I Am Worried About You “Alright, I’ll be right there!” Emily quickly nodded. She only heaved a sigh of relief after hanging up.Fortunately, Sofia was fine! “Mrs, is there any news about Sofia?” Emily nodded. After briefly explainingthe situation to the teacher, she left with Ethan. Over here. After hanging up the phone, Lucas looked at the girl who was sitting in front of him andshaking her short legs, a helpless expression on his face. He had been in the fierce business world forso many years, he had dealt with many big and small tricky incidents. When he met this little girl, hewas still helpless. He reached out and rubbed his eyebrows. “I have already called your mommy. She will be here soon.”Sofia blinked her big eyes and said with a smile, “Thank you, Lucas.” After chatting with this little girl fora while, Lucas had a rough understanding of the situation. This little girl wanted to invite him to be her daddy for a day. At that, Lucas did not seem to feel any aversion. Anyway, he liked these two little guys very much. Itwas just a favor, nothing would actually happen. However, what shocked him was that Sofia actuallyhad so much courage! Running out of kindergarten alone to replace him… By just thinking about it, he stillfelt a bit dangerous and scared. Lucas put on a poker face and pretended to be unhappy. “Forget it thistime. Don’t run out like this again next time, okay?”

“When I called your mother just now, she and the teacher were anxious! How worried was your motherwhen you were missing, do you know?” Hearing this, Sofia pouted as if she had realized their mistake.“Uncle, I know I was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again next time.” She lowered her eyes. Seeing how obedient Sofia was, Lucas nodded. He reached out and patted Sofia’s little head. “That’s more like it. If you know your mistake, change it.You’re still a good child!” “But, when your mother comes later, you have to apologize to her properly.”“Uncle, I know,” Sofia nodded obediently. She had indeed worried her mother when she ran out thistime. As Sofia was so cooperative, Lucas did not say anything else. He took some pastries and placedthem in front of Sofia, saying, “Eat it.” About half an hour later, Emily brought Ethan in from outside.

Because she was too anxious, she did not bother to knock on the door. “Sofia!” As soon as she walked in, Emily angrily pulled Sofia over, regardless of whether there was anyonethere or not, and directly slapped her on the butt twice. Emily panted heavily. Due to nervousness, herforehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat. “You little brat, how dare you run around randomly?”“Do you know how anxious Mommy was when I received the teacher’s call?” Emily rarely hit children.This time, she was really scared to death. Sofia did not dare to cry. She bit her lips, looking wronged,and said in a childish voice, “Mommy, I know I was wrong!” She held back her tears and apologizedobediently. Emily was so angry that she kept glaring at the girl. Her chest heaved up and down, and hereyes turned even redder. The anger in her stomach instantly vanished after hearing Sofia’s apology.What replaced it was lingering fear and worry. She lowered her eyes and hid the tears welling up. Emilyreached out and hugged Sofia. She choked and said, “Do you know how worried Mommy and Brotherwere about you?” “Brother even cried when he looked for you this afternoon, do you know?” Hearing this, Sofia felt even more guilty. She curled her lips and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.“Brother, Mommy, I’m sorry! It’s Sofia’s fault this time. I made you worry.” Ethan stood at the side,looking like a sensible little adult. He reached out and patted Sofia on the head. “Remember to tell brother where you is going next time. No matter where you go, brother willaccompany you. Don’t run around, okay?” “I know, brother.” Sofia nodded obediently. Lucas stood atthe side and quietly watched everything in front of him. For some reason, he felt warm. A different kind of warmth flowed from the bottom of his heart. Perhaps, this was the feeling of home. “Alright, the child has been found. Don’t be angry, Doctor Armstrong,” he said with a smile. Hearing theman’s voice, Emily finally reacted. She was still in Lucas’ office! She reached out and wiped the tearsfrom the corners of her eyes. She smiled apologetically. “Sorry, Mr. Greens.” All along, she rarely

showed this kind of appearance in front of outsiders. Today, in front of Lucas, she really lost hercomposure. Then, she clenched the palms of the two little guys and said to Lucas, “I’m really sorry forwhat happened today. I’ve caused you trouble again.” She didn’t even know how many times this hadhappened. Ever since she met Lucas, she seemed to have been causing trouble for this man. “It’s no trouble.” Lucas didn’t seem to mind.
