Chapter 23

Chapter 23 No Need to Take It off Emily’s expression changed and she felt a little helpless. Vivian did not notice the change in Emily andbegan explaining what had happened. “Emily, I was playing with the children just now and these peoplejust barged in a scared us half to death.” She leaned close to Emily and whispered, “Don’t be afraid. If they try anything, we will call the police.”Ethan and Sofia also grabbed Emily’s fingers. Their expressions were firm, as if they wanted to giveher courage. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. She patted the children on the back and said,“Mommy is fine. Don’t be afraid.” She then said to Vivian, “It’s fine. They won’t do anything stupid.” Shefrowned and turned to look at Lucas, her tone full of anger. “Why didn’t you tell us in advance that youwere coming? Look at you, you scared my family.” Mason said awkwardly, “I’m sorry for scaring Ms.Armstrong’s family. We didn’t do it on purpose. The situation is really urgent today, so we came hererashly.” Vivian was taken aback by the sudden change in the power dynamic. “What’s going on?” Shepoked her best friend. “It’s okay. They are here for me. They mean no harm. My grandmother is at AuntZhang’s house downstairs. You take Ethan and Sofia down to join them. I will go later and explaineverything.” Emily explained. They came in such a hurry. Perhaps there was another issue with YoungMaster Greens’ body. Ethan hugged her waist and said, “Mommy, I won’t leave. I will stay here withyou.” Knowing that her son was worried about her, Emily’s heart softened and she agreed since hewouldn’t be any trouble. Seeing this, Sofia refused to leave as well. “I also want to accompanyMommy.” Although Vivian was a little confused, she hesitated for a moment and nodded. She wentdownstairs alone. Emily led the two children to Lucas and asked, “Why are you in such a hurry? Whathappened?” Mason said, “When Young Master Greens woke up this morning, his chest was a littlepainful. In a few days, Young Master Greens will be going abroad for a business trip. We were worried that… his physical condition might affect those plans, so we rushed over.” When she heard this, she understood.

“Young Master Greens, reach out and let me take your pulse.” Lucas raised his eyebrows and took offhis watch. He reached out his wrist.

She checked his pulse. His pulse was stable, but it was a little shaky. “Ms. Armstrong, how is it?”Mason asked nervously. She glanced at him and replied, “Young Master Greens’ body is weak now. It’snormal for him to have pain in his chest.” Mason and Lucas heaved a sigh of relief. Lucas’ face wascold, and there was no sign of sadness or joy. Emily instructed, “In his current situation, it’s best for himto take good care of himself and not be too busy. No matter what his health is like, if he’s overtired itwill impede my treatment.” So it seemed that his trip abroad would have to wait. According to hertreatment plan, he also had to come in for fixed sessions. If they kept doing this and changed theschedule, it would disrupt her treatment process. Lucas finally opened his mouth and said, “It’s just thistime. In the future, I will adjust my schedule to work around your treatment plan.” Emily frowned andglanced at him. She thought about it carefully and decided she was still unsure about his current status.“Today, I will give you another acupuncture session. I will prescribe some medicine for you, please takeit according to my instruction. Take it three times a day until you finish it all. After returning to China,come here and give I’ll give you another acupuncture session.” Lucas pursed his lips. “Thank you.” Then he asked, “Ms. Armstrong, is there a treatment room here?” This place wasn’t big and he couldn’tsee anywhere that looked like one. Emily was stunned by the question. Only then did she rememberthat there was no treatment room at home. When she had asked them to come over for treatment, shehad forgotten about this. She bit her lip. The sofa was too small for her to be able to performacupuncture in the living room There was only the bedrooms. Grandma was not in good health. It was obviously inappropriate to use her bedroom as a treatmentroom. She looked at the two children. The bed they slept on was a bunk bed. The bed was too small, soobviously not that. The only suitable place was her own room. She was a little embarrassed to treat aman in her own bedroom, but this was the only option. She was a doctor now, so it was fine. Afterpondering for a moment, she said to Lucas, “Let’s go to my room.”

Lucas’ body stiffened. He was somewhat uncomfortable, but he still remained silent and followed herinto the room. Mason, Ethan, and Sofia followed closely behind. After entering, Lucas sized up the room. It was clean and tidy, and the decor was very stylish. The simple furnishings created a warm feeling.“Lie on the bed and take off your clothes.” She closed the door, put down her bag, and said in a lighttone. His nose was filled with the unique fragrance of a woman, different from the pungent smell ofchemical perfume. It was light and very fragrant. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “Don’t tellme you want me to take off my pants again?” Mason had told him about what had happened before. Emily smiled awkwardly and said, “No need. Take off your shirt only, I’m only going to be working onyour upper body today.” She also wanted to use this acupuncture session to observe the tattoo on hischest. Before she could get a good look, Lucas had already taken off his shirt and laid face down onthe bed, revealing his bare back. She was a little disappointed that she could not see his tattoo.
