Her Twin Pregnancy Turned The CEO Into A Wife Aholic

Chapter 39 His Warmth

Emily looked at William in disbelief, her face full of anger. When those words came out, William’s face

instantly turned pale. If everyone knew about that detail, then it was obvious he was selling his

daughter off!

Nobody would be on his side after knowing he had done something like that. How would the Armstrong

family establish itself in high society again after that? The surrounding people were also in an uproar!

They all looked at William, their hearts filled with suspicion.

Just now, what that elder Miss Armstrong said, could it be true?

Mia and Emma’s faces sank when they heard this.

Mia’s heart beat faster, and her palms were covered in sweat. She almost couldn’t maintain her calm

expression.

Emma and her daughter looked at each other with anxiety.

That was supposed to be a secret.

The media would definitely report on it. And then, the Armstrong family’s reputation would be ruined.

Especially Mia, she was a public figure and it would definitely impact her career. Then, not only would

they talk about her online, but maybe she would lose her job and be banned from TV.

A few clicking shutter sounds rang out, and Mia could not help but worry. In the current situation, she

couldn’t just shoo the media personnel out. She gritted her teeth and stared at Emily with hatred in her

eyes. Emily, how did you end up with the Greens family? Moreover, what was going on with this Mr.

Greens? He was clearly here to attend Mia’s wedding. Yet, he had intervened and caused her family to

lose face! She thought, at that moment, they needed someone to help the Armstrong family out of their

bind.

If the news came out, then she would just have to pay to remove the search results and suppress the

news. Charles was stunned. He turned around and looked at her, his eyes full of inquiry.

She quickly gave him a look. He understood and said naturally to Mason, “Assistant Mason, I think you

and the outside world have some misunderstandings about us. This matter is not what you think it is.

Young master Smith, although he has done some bad things in the past, he has learned his lesson and

changed his ways now. His leg is only injured and he will recover. We really arranged this marriage with

the full intent of securing Emily’s future happiness. You really shouldn’t speculate on our intentions like

that.” His words were firm and clear, completely removing the suspicion from the Armstrong family.

Mason chuckled in disbelief. This young master of the Johnson family was just lying through his teeth.

Doctor Armstrong was lucky she didn’t marry Charles, he was not the person that she had thought he

was. Emma also chimed in, “Yes, you’re acting like we’re intentionally trying to hurt Emily. We are a

family, why would we do something like that?” The whole Armstrong family presented a united front,

quickly assuming the innocent and hurt faces of the victims.

Emily watched all their faces change.

She was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. She was mentally prepared that the Armstrong family

would not do anything for her out of the goodness of their heart. But she also did not expect that it

would be like this.

If Assistant Mason had not said so, she would not know that William wanted to betroth her to such a

person!

Her eyes were filled with anger, replaced by a heavy disappointment. She did not want to stay in this

place any longer. Emily closed her eyes, looked up at Lucas, and said, “As soon as I get my mother’s

necklace, we’ll go back together. Wait for me.” The corners of her mouth curved, and her elegant smile

stunned many people. Her almond eyes were full of love, gentle and sincere. In the eyes of outsiders,

they were like a pair of lovers. Emily was smart, she understood that Lucas was helping her. His

actions made her cold heart feel a little warmer. Being stared at by those beautiful eyes, Lucas’ heart

skipped a beat. He couldn’t help but be stunned, and a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

When he came back to his senses, he nodded and said in a gentle tone, “Alright, I’ll wait for you.” He

answered like a husband, waiting for his wife to return home. She turned around and looked at William.

The warmth in her eyes disappeared, leaving only coldness. She spoke in an indifferent tone as if he

was not her biological father, but a stranger. “I will say it one last time. Give me the necklace!” She

stretched out her hand and waited impatiently for William. After today, she would definitely not have

any more contact with the Armstrong family! Lucas stood by, not saying a word. His cold gaze pierced

William, his eyes practically drilling a hole through the man. Lucas had spent many years in the

ruthless business world, and he had become a predator who could kill with one look.

His glance had a stopping power that could awe and silence a man.

William was frightened to the point of trembling. He took the necklace out of his chest pocket with

trembling hands, almost unable to hold it steadily. “I’ll give it to you right… right away!” Swallowing his

saliva, his tongue seemed to have been tied, making it difficult for him to even speak a complete

sentence.

How could he dare disobey?

Emily had found such a backer.

Even the Johnson and Armstrong families together would not be able to do anything to her now.

William did not dare look at Lucas, much less speak to him. He respectfully handed the necklace to

Emily. Emily grabbed the necklace quickly, not wanting to have any physical contact with him.

She no longer paid any attention to William. Lucas raised his eyebrows and handed her a

handkerchief. She took it with a grateful look. She quickly wiped the necklace. She did not hide her

disgust for William. She put away the necklace and smiled at him. “Let’s go.”
