Chapter 196

Chapter 196 Intention When Lucas heard this, he glanced at her coldly and said in a distant and cold voice, “How can Itrouble Miss Smith?” “How can that be? It’s not troublesome at all.” Chase Smith acted as if she did not hear the determination in Lucas’ words. She held her wine glassand leaned over. She looked up at the handsome man in front of her. The infatuation in her eyes wasnot concealed at all. At the same time, her beautiful figure was also visible to Lucas. Today, when shelearned that Lucas would also come to the birthday banquet, she specially asked the stylist to dressherself up as a sexy stunner. As the saying goes, men are all visual animals. She did not believe thatLucas could remain indifferent in the face of such a beauty Thinking of this, Chase Smith blinked hereyes and looked at Lucas. Her red lips parted slightly, and with a charming voice, she said, “Moreover, Iquite like it when you trouble me.” As she spoke, she originally wanted to put her other hand on Lucas’ chest. Unexpectedly, just as shemoved, she was grabbed by Lucas’ wrist. “Miss Smith, I hope you can behave yourself.” Lucas wasobviously indifferent to Chase Smith’s seduction. He released his hand and took a step back, keepingthe distance between the two of them. He said expressionlessly, “Also, I don’t like to trouble others.Excuse me.” After saying this, he turned around and greeted the people he knew. Chase Smith sawthat the man did not give her any face and turned to leave. Her heart was both angry and bitter!Obviously, in Lucas’ eyes, she was just nobody. It was also at this moment that she finally felt that thehope of her being with Lucas was becoming increasingly uncertain. For a moment, her expressioncouldn’t help but become downcast. Why, why!? She had abandoned her self-esteem to pursue him,but Lucas was still unwilling to look at her. Could it be that she could not compare to a woman who hadgiven birth? Little did she know that the scene just now was seen by Peiying not far away. She couldsee that her son had no feelings for Chase Smith. Because of this, she frowned. Chase Smith was the daughter-in-law that she liked. She did not wanther daughter-in-law to be an ordinary person in the future! Thinking of her son’s special treatment ofDoctor Armstrong, Peiying felt that she should go and have a good chat with Doctor Armstrong. “Sorry,

I need to go to the bathroom.” Peiying said apologetically and turned to leave. She went directly to the second floor and came to thedoor of the study. In fact, the door was not tightly closed, revealing a gap, and the picture inside couldbe clearly seen.

Emily was sitting on the sofa, looking seriously at the medical book in her hand. There was also apaper and pen on the coffee table in front of her, making it convenient for her to take notes. The white light shone on her body, imperceptibly adding a halo to her, making her look more quiet andgentle. At this moment, Emily was immersed in the world of medical books and did not notice thatsomeone had come in. “Doctor Armstrong.” Peiying interrupted Emily. Emily also heard this voice and realized that someone had come. She lookedup in surprise and saw that Peiying had walked up to her at some point in time. She quickly stood upand greeted her politely, “Mrs. Greens.” Seeing this, Peiying did not have much malice on her face. Shenodded lightly and gestured for Emily to sit down. Then, she sat opposite Emily. Emily blinked her eyes. She was not stupid. She clearly saw that Peiying had come specially to replaceher, so she took the initiative to ask. “Does Mrs. Greens have something to say to me?” “There are indeed some things that I want to talk to Doctor Armstrong about.” Peiying nodded and admitted. At the same time, she looked at Emily without leaving a trace. It could not be denied that this Doctor Armstrong in front of her was indeed very outstanding, butunfortunately, she had no status and was the mother of two children. Just based on this point, she could not let her son take the wrong path! Emily did not know this and looked at Peiying with some confusion. After all, she did not have much interaction with this Mrs. Greens and did not know what Mrs. Greenswanted to talk to her about. Although she did not understand, she still nodded and whispered, “Please speak, Mrs. Greens.”

“I am very grateful to Doctor Armstrong for treating our Lucas. However, both of you are unmarriedafter all. If you get too close, you will inevitably be criticized. So for the sake of both sides, I hope thatDoctor Armstrong can keep a good distance from our Lucas.” Peiying tactfully stated her purpose. Emily, however, was stunned. She also understood the meaning ofthis Mrs. Greens coming over She immediately frowned and looked over with some disapproval. “Did Mrs. Greens misunderstandsomething?” Hearing this, Peiying did not deny it. She felt that it was better to make things clear for some things. “Just take it as a misunderstanding, but I still hope that Doctor Armstrong will listen to me, so as not tocause unnecessary trouble for each other.” After hearing these words, Emily almost laughed in anger.She pursed her lips, looked over with a serious face, and said in a deep voice, “Sorry, Mrs. Greens,forgive me for not agreeing to your request. First of all, I have to treat Mr. Greens often, and it isimpossible to keep a distance. Secondly, Mr. Greens and I are only friends. I don’t think that I havedone anything that makes people misunderstand. In the end, I don’t have that kind of intention towardsMr. Greens.”
