Chapter 17 Could Not Compare to Her
Mr. Hawking and Emily went to the conference room to talk in detail. Mason and Lucas did not leave
and just sat in the lounge to wait for them. After about half an hour, they returned. “Grandpa Hawking,
how is it?” Lucas asked. Mr. Hawking nodded, brimming with excitement. “I’ve seen the plan. We will
try it for a month first.” Lucas and the others did not understand medical matters, and Mr. Hawking
couldn’t explain further without going into professional medical details. When he said this, there
seemed to be some disbelief in his eyes. Lucas sensed his doubt and was puzzled. His searching gaze
landed on Emily. He did not know what they had discussed to make Grandpa Hawking reveal such an
expression. However, since Grandpa Hawking had agreed, it seemed that the plan was not an issue.
Since both sides were satisfied, then they could talk about the details of their cooperation.
“Ms. Armstrong, sit over here. Let’s talk about the specifics of our deal.” Mason adjusted his glasses,
shifting into a mature and steady aura of business.

“I don’t have any requirements. Just cooperate with the treatment.”
The price was settled and the treatment time was set.
Mason thought about it and mentioned the location of the treatment. “Will Ms. Armstrong come to the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGreens Residence to treat our young master in the future, or?” If she could go to the Greens
Residence for treatment, it would naturally be the best choice.
Emily shook her head. She looked at Lucas and her almond eyes met with his deep and sharp eagle
eyes. “Young Master Greens, I still have a family to take care of. I can’t leave my medicine garden, so it
is not convenient for me to come to you. You’ll have to come to me for your treatment.”
Mason and Lucas looked at each other with complicated expressions.
A person like Young Master Greens who could move heaven and earth was now beholden to the
whims of this young girl. They were completely at her mercy.
If she could cure him, all of this was worth it.
It was just a visit to her home, why not?
Mason agreed immediately. Emily briefly explained the treatment plan and medicine
to them. They had no objection. The matter was settled. She said goodbye to them and finished the
business with Mr. Hawking as well. She was about to leave when Mason stopped her.
“Ms. Armstrong, we have another request here. Young Master Greens has a special identity, and his
illness must be kept confidential. I hope you can respect that.”
Emily agreed and turned to leave.
On the way back, she wondered if she had been too impulsive to agree so readily, and establish a
connection with this rich and powerful Young Master Greens.
Just because she saw a tattoo on his chest? If he was not the person she wanted to find, wasn’t this all
a waste of time? However, after thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with it. The remuneration
they paid her was very high. In the future, she would no longer have to worry about money
Thinking of this, she smiled and her footsteps became lighter. There were still people waiting for her at
home.
She reached her apartment block, her home was on the 4th floor. This was an old building. The
facilities were dated and there was no elevator so they had to take the stairs. “Who told you to come…”
She walked to the second floor and heard some people arguing. It was very noisy. She stopped in her
tracks. The soundproofing of this building was not good, so it was possible that some family was
quarreling. She shrugged and went upstairs. “Get out of here. You are not welcome here!” When she
reached the fourth floor, the sounds of arguing became clearer and clearer. Only then did she realize
that this furious roar was from her grandmother. Was the dispute happening in her own family? She felt
a rush of cold. “Why are you so agitated? I just came to send an invitation letter to my sister. Although
she was kicked out of the house, she’s still the Armstrong family’s flesh and blood. Charles and I are
going to get married. As a younger sister, shouldn’t one invite her sister?”
A sarcastic and sharp female voice came from inside the door, the pride was evident in her voice. It
stabbed into Emily, who clenched her fists as she felt her anger rise. She could not forget this person’s
voice. It was her stepsister, Mia,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEmily’s face darkened, and she pushed open the door and entered. “Mia, this is not your Armstrong
residence. You’re not welcome in my home. Get out of here!” She glared angrily at Mia, so angry that
her body trembled slightly, and her voice was
cold.
“Oh, Emily you’re back?” Mia turned her head when she heard the voice and their eyes met. Mia was
dressed in a revealing fashion, and Emily vaguely remembered that it was a new design from some
known designer.
Mia had on stilettos which showed her toes that were covered in red nail polish, her hair was done in a
complicated style and a braid fell over her shoulder. She looked powerful and beautiful. Her pretty face
was covered with heavy makeup, and the whole room was filled with the heavy smell of perfume on her
body. Compared to Mia, Emily’s long hair draped down over her shoulders and she was dressed in a
plain Mori-style long dress. She looked gentle and down-to-earth. Emily’s brown almond eyes rippled
with emotion, her lips were cherry red, and the tip of her delicate nose turned up slightly. Her face was
small, and her light makeup made her facial features more delicate and charming. Mia angrily found
that in terms of facial features, Emily was indeed more stunning than her. And maybe even her natural
aura was inferior to Emily’s?
