Chapter 165 Seize the Opportunity Properly When he was about to get off work at night, Lucas
received a call from her mother. “What’s the matter?” “Come to the mansion for dinner tonight. Your
father and I haven’t had dinner with you for a long time.” Peiying’s gentle voice came from the phone. It
was not easy for Lucas to refuse, so he nodded and agreed. When he arrived, dinner was not ready
yet, so he sat on the sofa in the living room with the two elders. During this time, Peiying took out an
invitation letter and handed it over. She explained, “It will be your Auntie Smith’s birthday banquet in a
few days. She asked Chase to send two invitation letters and invited you to go with her.” Looking at the
exquisite invitation letter in front of him, Lucas frowned. It was obvious that he did not want to accept it.
However, she was an elder after all. It was not good for him not to celebrate her birthday, so he nodded
and agreed. Peiying saw this and smiled with satisfaction. During this time, she took the time to go to
the side and called Chase Smith. Because she knew that Chase Smith was still waiting for her news.
Just as the call connected, she heard Chase Smith’s nervous voice from the phone. “Auntie Edwards,
has Lucas agreed to attend the birthday banquet?” “He has already agreed.” Peiying responded with a
smile. Hearing this news, Chase Smith was very happy. She clenched her fists and swore in her heart
that she must seize the opportunity this time! After dinner, Lucas did not want to stay and be a third

Emily’s house. Looking at the handsome man outside the door, Emily was very surprised. “Mr. Greens,
why are you here so late? Are you feeling unwell?” The reason why she asked this was because Emily
only thought of this possibility. Unexpectedly, Lucas shook his head and said in a low and magnetic
voice, “I’m not feeling unwell. I just came over to ask if I need treatment this weekend. I have a social
event that I can’t turn down.”
“Then you can go, but don’t drink.” It must be an important event then. Emily could only agree to let him
go. Lucas nodded.
Then, the two of them stood at the door, speechless.
Logically speaking, Emily should have invited Lucas into the room to sit, but because they were
discussing proper business, she had forgotten about this. Just when the atmosphere was a little
awkward, the two little ones heard that Lucas had come and ran out of the room one after another.
“Lucas, why are you here?” Sofia ran to Lucas with a face full of joy, her eyes flashing with a bright
light. Seeing her, Lucas became more very gentle. “Lucas has something to talk to your mommy
about.” “Have you finished talking?” Ethan hurriedly asked. “I’m done. What’s the matter?” Lucas
nodded. “It’s nothing. Do you plan to go back right away?” The little fellow continued to ask. This time,
before Lucas could answer, Sofia, who was next to him, held his hand and began to act like a spoiled
child. “I don’t want Lucas to go. Since Lucas is here, then let’s go in and have a chat. Sofia misses
Lucas.” Seeing his sister’s actions, Ethan also nodded and echoed. He looked at Lucas, his eyes full of
anticipation. “Lucas, I’ve been learning math recently. I find it very interesting, but there is something I
don’t understand. Can you please teach us?” Hearing this, and looking at the two little ones who were
looking forward to it, Lucas was unable to harden his heart and refuse, so he simply nodded in
agreement. “Alright then.” After he finished speaking, he looked towards Emily and smiled faintly.
“Looks like I’ll have to disturb you for a while.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was dragged into the room by the two little ones, leaving Emily
standing where she was and raising her eyebrows, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
There was no other reason. These two children of hers had indeed started learning math recently, but
there was nothing that they didn’t know!
It was obvious that these two little ones were saying this on purpose, wanting to stay for a while longer
with Lucas.
Lucas did not know about this. He followed the two little ones to the study room and saw the math
textbook on the table.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough it was only at the beginner level, for the two little ones, it was still a bit early to learn this.
Thinking of this, he was once again surprised by the intelligence of the two little ones. At the same
time, he asked, “Is there anything you don’t understand?” The two little ones looked at each other and
then pointed to a question. “Lucas, I don’t know much about this.” “I don’t understand this question
either.” Lucas glanced at the questions they were talking about and did not think too much about it. He
began to take a pen and began to explain in the simplest way. He was very patient.
The two little ones listened with great interest, and the intelligence they showed was also very scary.
Basically, Lucas only needed to explain everything once.
Of course, the two little ones admired Lucas more. Sofia looked over with starry eyes and praised,
“Lucas, you are so awesome. The steps you said are very simple. I understand it in a moment.” “I also
understand it now.” Ethan expressed, unwilling to fall behind. Emily, who had just come over to deliver
the fruit, heard this and could not help but raise her eyebrows and tease, “What, are the things that
Mommy said before very complicated?” Hearing this, the two little ones stuck out their tongues
playfully. “No, no. Mommy’s words are easy to understand too.” “Yes, they’re very easy to understand.”
The two little ones smiled and tried to muddle through. When Lucas heard this, he realized that the
children knew how to solve the problem all along. It was clearly an excuse to ask him to stay a little
longer.
