Chapter 199 Heart Ached Terribly
However, even though everyone was shocked, there was nothing they could do. In the end, they could
only watch as the two old men ignored them and left with Emily. Armstrong family’s couple had never
been so humiliated before. They were so angry that their faces turned green. Charles Johnson and his
family were also silent for a long time. Emily did not know about this. After she was pulled away by Mr.
Hawking and Elder Meng, she did not leave immediately. Instead, she was taken to the study room and
forced to open for business to discuss medicine. Looking at the two elders who were in high spirits, she
felt as if her head was about to explode.
“Senior Huo, Senior Meng, I actually don’t know much either,” She said modestly, hoping that the two
elders would let her go. Unexpectedly, Mr. Hawking chuckled, “It doesn’t matter. If you don’t know, we
will teach you. We will discuss it.” Although he said that, the old fox still slyly snatched two medicinal
prescriptions from Emily. Looking at Mr. Hawking, who was holding the medicinal prescription of the
legendary treasure, Emily was full of helplessness and frustration. Sure enough, she was defenseless
in front of the old fox.
At this time, Elder Meng changed the topic. Thinking of the farce in the banquet hall just now, he asked
with concern, “Ms. Armstrong, I heard that you have two children. Are you married?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Mr. Hawking, who was admiring the prescription next to him,
immediately became alert. “Elder Meng, what do you want to do with this? I tell you, don’t think about
Ms. Armstrong!”
Listening to Mr. Hawking’s protection, Emily felt a warm feeling in her heart. She turned to look at Old
Meng and did not hide her situation. “I am not married, but I have two children. Although I have a child
out of wedlock, I do not regret it at all. My children are my pride!” In the end, her eyes were firm and her
whole body was full of maternal radiance. When Old Meng saw this, he actually did not look down on
the girl. After all, everyone had their own life and choices,
However, when he thought about Armstrong family, who claimed to be Emily’s family, he could not help
but feel a little distressed. Obviously, Emily did not have a good relationship with her family. “It must be
very hard to be a single mother.” “In the beginning, it was indeed very hard, but now I feel that my
suffering has come to an end. The children are very sensible and considerate to me.”
Emily replied with a smile. She did not feel that she was having a hard time now. Elder Meng nodded.
Then the three of them chatted for a while, and Emily proposed to leave again. This time, the two
elders did not try to persuade her to stay and let her go with satisfaction After Emily went downstairs,
she went to say goodbye to Lucas. No matter what, she had been taken care of by him a lot tonight. It
was too rude to leave without saying goodbye. Unexpectedly, after knowing her purpose, Lucas took
the initiative to say, “I’ll send you back.” “There’s no need. I’ll just call a cab back.” Due to Mrs. Greens’
words tonight, Emily subconsciously wanted to keep a distance and refused.
However, Lucas insisted, “At this time, it’s not easy to get a taxi nearby. Moreover, you are a girl and
you are dressed so beautifully. It’s not safe to take a taxi back. You don’t want Sofia and Ethan to
worry, right?” When it came to this, Emily could not refuse at all and had to agree. On the way back,
Lucas looked at the silent Emily and was inexplicably a little unaccustomed.
He took the initiative to find a topic and asked, “I saw that you had a good chat with Old Master Meng
and Mr. Hawking. What were you talking about?”
Hearing this, Emily did not feel that there was anything to hide, so she just said it directly. “We were just
discussing medical skills.” As she spoke, she thought of how she had been tricked by Mr. Hawking
again and could not help but laugh. “What are you laughing about?” Lucas asked curiously again. “I’m
laughing at Senior Hawking. What a cunning man.” Emily didn’t hide anything and told him about how
Mr. Hawking tricked her to give away the formula.
When Lucas heard this, he couldn’t help but smile and ridicule, “This old man is really something. He
wasn’t like this in the past.”
“Is that so? Then what was Mr. Hawking like in the past?” Emily looked over with a face full of curiosity.
Her black eyes were as bright as stars, extremely beautiful. Seeing such a cute and lively woman,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucas’ eyes flickered, and he began to talk about the interesting things that happened to Mr. Hawking
in the past. On the road, a black car drove slowly, and light laughter like silver bells came out of the car
from time to time. Later, she returned to the gate of the community.
Emily got out of the car in a good mood. She politely invited him to sit for a while.
After all, she felt that Lucas might not agree. Unexpectedly, after she asked, Lucas looked at the time
and found that it was not too late. It was only nine o’clock. The two little ones might not have rested yet,
so he agreed. “Okay, then I’ll trouble you for a while.”. “No, no trouble at all.” Emily was stunned for a
moment. She felt like she walked into her own trap, but she still brought Lucas upstairs. When the two
entered the room, they saw the two little ones lying on the sofa in cute pajamas, leaning against each
other, sleepy on the sofa, but with their eyes wide open.
“You look so sleepy. Why don’t you sleep in the room?” When Emily saw the two of them, her heart
ached. When Sofia heard the sound, she looked up in a daze and saw that Lucas was also there. She
immediately stretched out her hand and said in a soft and cute voice, “Lucas, hug me.”
This made Lucas’ heart soften. He directly walked over and gently bent down to pick her up.
The little girl also leaned on his shoulder and did not move.
