Chapter 153 They Were Obedient By the time they returned, it was already dark. “This is the dinner I ordered someone to pack up for you
and grandma.” As he spoke, Lucas handed over the food box in his hand. . Seeing this, Emily felt a
warm feeling in his heart. “Thank you.” She thanked him and accepted it. She did not expect this man
to be so attentive. That night, she and her mother were busy cleaning up the herb field and had indeed
not eaten yet. Lucy also thanked him from the side. “We’ve troubled Mr. Greens to look after Ethan and
Sofia for us.” “They were very obedient.” Lucas looked over with a faint smile. At this time, the two little
ones hugged Great-Grandma and Mommy respectively. Their voices were soft and lovely as they
talked about the details of their dinner with Lucas at night.
Especially Sofia, who was like Lucas’ little fangirl, said all kinds of praises. “Mommy, Lucas is so good.
He took care of both of us well.”. “Brother and I are so full. And Lucas also bought a cake for Sofia. It’s
delicious.” Ethan also nodded and echoed.
TOUS.
Although he did not speak as much as his sister, the meaning was the same.
Lucas raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect that the two little ones would only praise him like this, but
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe felt very comfortable in his heart. He felt that he didn’t dote on these two children for nothing. Emily
also didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Just like this, after a few jokes, Lucas asked about the herb
field’s situation. “Have you finished cleaning up over there?” “Not yet. It’s dark and I can’t see the herbs
clearly. I plan to deal with the rest tomorrow.” Emily shook her head and the smile on her face
disappeared. Her face looked very serious.
“I’ll send a few people to help you tomorrow,” Lucas said subconsciously, feeling a little distressed.
Hearing this, Emily instinctively wanted to refuse.
After all, she had already troubled Lucas a lot of things. She felt that she could still handle this matter
properly. And her thoughts were not hidden from Lucas. “You don’t have to feel burdened. Just treat it
as me doing this for the sake of those precious medicinal herbs,” Lucas interrupted before she could
speak. Hearing this, Emily could no longer refuse. “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Greens.” She looked
over gratefully. On the other hand, when Ethan heard the conversation between the two, he was
sensitive to the fact that something that he did not know happened at home. “Mommy, what happened
to the herb field?” The little fellow frowned slightly and looked over with worry in his eyes. Sofia also
looked over worriedly. Seeing this, Emily did not want the two little ones to worry, so she hid it and told
a white lie, “The herb field is fine. It is just that the precious herbs that Mommy cultivated before failed
again. I’m just a little sad.” “So that’s how it is. Mommy, don’t be sad. You can definitely do it next time.”
Sofia held Emily’s hand and comforted her. That soft baby voice was simply enough to make one’s
heart melt. Ethan also persuaded from the side, “Sister is right. Mommy can treat it as accumulating
experience.” Hearing these words, Emily only felt that the gloomy mood of the night had been healed a
lot.
Lucas was also being watched by the interaction between the mother and son. Something was
breeding in his heart. Later, when he saw that it was getting late, he took the initiative to say goodbye.
“I’ve been tired for a day. You should rest early. I’ll go first.” “You’re leaving?” Sofia was a little reluctant
and looked at Lucas with eager eyes. Lucas raised his hand and rubbed the little girl’s head. He smiled
and said, “I will see you again in the future.” Hearing this, although Sofia was very reluctant, she still
waved her little hands and said goodbye to her Lucas. When he went downstairs, Mason was already
waiting at the gate of the community.
Sitting in the car, Lucas stopped smiling, and he was expressionless.
“How is the investigation going?” He asked Mason in a deep voice. “I saw an unfamiliar footprint near
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe herbal field. Judging by its size, it should be a man’s. I have already made a copy of it. However,
there are no surveillance cameras nearby. There are no other discoveries for the time being,” Mason
replied respectfully.
When he said this, Lucas frowned.
“What about the others? Have you investigated them?” “Yes, I have sent someone to investigate the
surveillance cameras near Doctor Armstrong’s residence. I have found some clues,” “Two days ago,
there was a suspicious car parked near Doctor Armstrong’s house. It seemed to be monitoring her,”
Mason said, nodding. Lucas narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. “Have you sent
someone to investigate?” “I’ve already sent someone to investigate the car. There should be results
tomorrow morning.” Mason said truthfully. Lucas nodded, but his mind inexplicably flashed with the red
eyes of Emily in the evening, but she pretended to be strong. Although it was only the first time he went
to the herb garden, from the layout of the surroundings, he knew that the herb garden had been
damaged badly.
Thinking of this, he was silent for a moment, and then he said to Mason, “No matter what, you must
investigate this matter clearly and find out who is behind this.” “Understood.” Mason accepted the
order. In fact, even without the president’s reminder, he planned to investigate this matter thoroughiy.
After all, what that person destroyed was not only Doctor Armstrong’s herb field, but also his
president’s life-saving medicine!
