Chapter 84 This Price They Had to Pay Emily was moved. All these years, it was Vivian who had been helping them, not caring about anything
in return. She held Vivian’s hand, her eyes a little moist. To be able to get such a good sister, her life
was worth it. Later, Vivian said goodbye to them and left. At night, Lucy felt a little uncomfortable.
The old woman was frightened, and her mood was sad, causing her heart to palpitate. She held her
chest, gasping for breath, and breathing hard. Emily supported her, her face full of anxiety and
helplessness. They came out in a hurry and did not bring Lucy’s medicine with them. She had to take
that medicine for her illness, otherwise it would not be able to be alleviated. Lucy struggled to stay
awake and said to her with difficulty, “Emily, … am fine! You do not have to worry about me.” She was
gasping for breath and still did not want her granddaughter to worry. She knew that this was an old
illness and it was easy to make mistakes if she was in a bad mood. Eating medicine would quickly
alleviate her condition. If she did not take medicine, her life would not be in danger. It was just a stuffy
feeling and palpitation. Emily was so anxious that her palms were sweating. She left behind a
sentence, “Wait for me.” With that, she ran out and headed straight for the pharmacy.
She ran downstairs and unexpectedly met Lucas.
When Lucas saw her, he was also surprised. “Doctor Armstrong, why are you here?” Tonight, he was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthere to participate in a dinner party, he hadn’t expected to meet her again. He remembered that she did
not live in this area.
Emily’s expression was very bad, but she still told him, “Something happened at my house. I live here
today.” Hearing this, Lucas frowned and asked, “What happened?”
Emily answered truthfully, “Today, my family and I went out. Then, my house was broken in and
smashed. The lock was broken and everything was ruined. There was
no way to live there now, but there was nothing missing. It was not a theft.”
She wanted to go to the pharmacy first, but she guessed that her grandmother was still well. Moreover,
he might be able to help in this matter, so she went on.
After hearing this, Lucas frowned. It was obvious that something was wrong. “What do you think? No
matter how old the community is, there is still a basic security system. It is impossible to let people
break in so easily. Is it Charles Johnson again?” They obviously were on the same page. Emily nodded
and replied, “I think so too, but I don’t have evidence.”
She sighed and looked at him worriedly. Lucas thought about it and decided to tell her. “To tell you the
truth, Charles Johnson came to me yesterday. He wanted to cooperate with me and provide me with
the convenience of work. He asked me to let Mia go.”
Some things were classified by the company, so he could not tell them too much in detail.
Emily was a little surprised and looked at him. “What about you? Did you promise him?”
Lucas told her straightforwardly, “I did have the intention to sign an agreement with him.”
After all, it would be a waste not to make such a big profit. When Emily heard this, a struggle flashed
through her eyes. She bit her lips and said with some difficulty, “Can I ask you something? As long as
you promise me, I will not charge you for the follow-up treatment.” Lucas was stunned. He nodded and
said in a low voice, “Just say it.” Emily looked away and her face turned cold. “Although I don’t have
any evidence, it is very likely that they did it. I want to use this chance to take back some things that
originally belonged to me from Armstrong family.” She clenched her fists and opened her scar. “Back
then, Armstrong family used my scandal to drive me out. After my mother died, they took the shares
under my mother’s name and secretly changed the ownership. Now, I want all of them to spit it out,
including the real estate.” Her gaze suddenly became sharp. Lucas narrowed his eyes and looked at
her with interest. “So, what do you want to do?”
Emily looked at him and explained, “If they had always been quiet and minded their own business, I
would have let it go. But now, they have attacked my child and forced
our family to be homeless. They have to pay the price!” She looked determined and firm. The things
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe had decided would not be easily changed. Armstrong family and Johnson family had offended her
again and again. She could not live it down.
When necessary, she would definitely retaliate.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Lucas, saying, “With the Greens Group’s ability, you will
definitely be able to do it, right?” She was betting that Lucas would agree to her request for his body.
Lucas looked at her and asked in a certain tone, “If I don’t agree, you are not going to treat me in the
future, right?”
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze a little complicated.
Emily gritted her teeth and answered bluntly, “Yes!” She answered firmly, without any room for
negotiation. She sighed and softened her tone. “But I hope you can agree. I don’t want to go to that
step with you.” Since they met, Mr. Greens had always shown a good character. If she made things
difficult for him because of this, she would feel somewhat regretful. Lucas looked at her deeply and
responded faintly, “Me too. I will help you with this matter.”
Emily breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you.” He still agreed.
