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 and
began explaining what had happened. “Emily, I was playing with the children just now and these people
just 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 give
her 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.” She
frowned and turned to look at Lucas, her tone full of anger. “Why didn’t you tell us in advance that you
were 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 here
rashly.” Vivian was taken aback by the sudden change in the power dynamic. “What’s going on?” She
poked her best friend. “It’s okay. They are here for me. They mean no harm. My grandmother is at Aunt
Zhang’s house downstairs. You take Ethan and Sofia down to join them. I will go later and explain
everything.” Emily explained. They came in such a hurry. Perhaps there was another issue with Young
Master Greens’ body. Ethan hugged her waist and said, “Mommy, I won’t leave. I will stay here with
you.” Knowing that her son was worried about her, Emily’s heart softened and she agreed since he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwouldn’t be any trouble. Seeing this, Sofia refused to leave as well. “I also want to accompany
Mommy.” Although Vivian was a little confused, she hesitated for a moment and nodded. She went
downstairs alone. Emily led the two children to Lucas and asked, “Why are you in such a hurry? What
happened?” Mason said, “When Young Master Greens woke up this morning, his chest was a little
painful. 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 off
his 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’s
normal for him to have pain in his chest.” Mason and Lucas heaved a sigh of relief. Lucas’ face was
cold, and there was no sign of sadness or joy. Emily instructed, “In his current situation, it’s best for him
to take good care of himself and not be too busy. No matter what his health is like, if he’s overtired it
will impede my treatment.” So it seemed that his trip abroad would have to wait. According to her
treatment plan, he also had to come in for fixed sessions. If they kept doing this and changed the
schedule, it would disrupt her treatment process. Lucas finally opened his mouth and said, “It’s just this
time. In the future, I will adjust my schedule to work around your treatment plan.” Emily frowned and
glanced 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 take
it 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’t
see anywhere that looked like one. Emily was stunned by the question. Only then did she remember
that there was no treatment room at home. When she had asked them to come over for treatment, she
had forgotten about this. She bit her lip. The sofa was too small for her to be able to perform
acupuncture 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 treatment
room.
She looked at the two children. The bed they slept on was a bunk bed. The bed was too small, so
obviously not that. The only suitable place was her own room. She was a little embarrassed to treat a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmman in her own bedroom, but this was the only option. She was a doctor now, so it was fine. After
pondering 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 her
into 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 light
tone. His nose was filled with the unique fragrance of a woman, different from the pungent smell of
chemical perfume. It was light and very fragrant. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “Don’t tell
me 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 on
your upper body today.” She also wanted to use this acupuncture session to observe the tattoo on his
chest. Before she could get a good look, Lucas had already taken off his shirt and laid face down on
the bed, revealing his bare back. She was a little disappointed that she could not see his tattoo.
