Chapter 68 You Reek Of Money


    "D*nm, is this the same Henry Maynard I know who never wears anything that is not specifically


    tailored for him?"


    Lucas asked in surprise, but there was a teasing smile on his face. He was wondering why Henry didn''t


    get him to pick them up earlier since they were both fine, but it appears that he just wanted to enjoy the


    sweet rural life with Luz.


    "Do you think everyone is like you, relying on their appearance to keep up their reputation?"


    Henry rolled his eyes coldly. Lucas immediately shut his mouth. If he gets offended, he would be in


    trouble.


    After bidding farewell to the farmer''s wife and her family reluctantly, Luz followed Henry to thended


    helicopter.


    "I''ve given this family 100,000 dors aspensation for hosting you guys these couple of weeks."


    After the helicopter safely took off, Lucas said with a smile, "These people were lucky to have met


    Henry. 100,000 dors was a hefty fortune to a vige like this."


    "You reek of money." Mia covered her nose in disgust.


    "Hey, woman, when I jumped off the ne with you in my arms, why didn''t you say that I reeked of


    money then? Who was it that pressed against me like a ko bear?"


    "Lucas, you!"


    Mia was furious as soon as she heard that. This day was definitely the worst day for her.


    "If you''re going to argue, get off the helicopter."


    Henry interrupted the dispute with dissatisfaction. Mia red at Lucas. She didn''t want to jump off any


    flying vehicles again, especially with Lucas.


    They quieted down. Henry pulled Luz into his arms and pushed her head onto his shoulder. "Take a


    nap."


    "..."


    Mia and Lucas stared at the both of them in surprise,pletely forgetting their argument. It had just


    been two weeks, and the two of them...


    Luz was a little embarrassed, but she could only lie in Henry''s arms and pretend to rest with her eyes


    closed. Only in this way could she avoid the suggestive gazes.


    The helicopter stopped in the big yard of the Maynard Family mansion. As soon as she got off the


    ne, Logan leapt into her arms.

    "Mommy, I was so worried about you!"


    The little fellow looked up. He once thought that the bad guy, Henry, had taken his mommy away.


    When Luz saw her son in her arms, she began to cry. She squatted down and held his little body tightly


    in her arms. After being kidnapped by drug dealers, what she feared most was that she could no longer


    see Logan and could not apany him to grow up.


    "I will take care of you until you grow up and get married.


    "


    She reached out to tap his nose, taking deep breaths to stop herself from crying.


    "I don''t want to get married. I want to be with Mommy forever."


    The little fellow shook his head fervently, causing Henry to frown.


    "Luz, Henry, you''re finally back."


    The olddy also came over. Her face was still pale, but her eyes were bright with happiness.


    "Grandma, I''m sorry."


    Luz stood up. She had heard that her grandmother''s blood pressure had spiked several times because


    of them. Grandmother was good to her, but she repaid her by making her worried.


    "Silly girl, I just want you toe back safely."


    The olddy''s lips were trembling. During the first few days, she had hardly slept. She was afraid that


    something bad would happen to Henry and Luz.


    "Grandma, we are all fine."


    Henry took two steps forward and held her arm. His expression was calm, not at all like someone who


    had almost died.


    Maddison was trying hard to smile, but her smile looked more like a grimace. She had always hoped


    that something would happen to Henry. She had prayed every night for these two to never appear in


    front of her ever again, but it seems like God had ignored her prayers. They hade back alive.


    "Grandma has worried a lot about the two of you. You know she has high blood pressure and heart


    diseases, so don''t do this again. She''s lost a son before, she might not be able to survive a second


    time."


    She was so frustrated that sheined without thinking. The olddy red at her.


    "You b*stard, how can you say that? That son I lost was your husband!"


    Maddison was embarrassed after being scolded in public. "Mother, I was just warning them not to worry


    you again."


    At the same time, she was even more annoyed. Husband? Her husband left her and her son nothing


    when he died. Instead, he left everything to his mother. That man had never loved her!


    Maddison gritted her teeth in frustration at the thought of living under someone else''s roof for the rest of


    her life. "Just wait," she thought. "Bryce ising home soon. He''ll do something about the Maynard


    family.


    "


    "Grandma, let''s go inside."


    Luz ignored Maddison and helped the olddy into the house.


    "You''re... oh, I remember, you''re Luz''s best friends, Mia, am I right?"


    The olddy looked at Mia and took some time to recall her name.


    "Nice to meet you, Mrs Maynard. I''m Mia James. You can just call me Mia." After greeting her politely,


    Mia nced at Lucas. They had done what they came here for, so they should leave.


    "Um, Grandma, I''ve delivered Henry back to you safely. I''ll just leave now, then."


    Lucas chuckled. He really didn''t like anyone from the Maynard Family except for Henry and the old


    "Where do you think you''re going? Stay here and have lunch with us."


    "I..."


    Henry made the decision for him. "Stay for lunch."


    The servants in the kitchen began to get busy. Luz and Mia were talking to the olddy, so the little


    fellow naturally stayed with his mother.


    Henry nced at Lucas and went straight to the third floor.


    "What, you want to report your status on your mission in rekindling old love?"


    Lucas followed him upstairs. He closed the door and began to gossip with a smile. In thest seven


    years, Henry had never let go of Luz. It looks like the kidnapping really helped them in this regard,


    speeding up their love quickly.


    "What happened to the syndicate?" Henry wasn''t nning on satisfying his thirst for gossip. He did not


    forget about the people who hurt Luz.


    The helicopter we fought in crashed, everyone in it died. The ones who were shooting from below were


    arrested, but the police didn''t manage to get them to snitch out the main syndicate. It''s either these


    people are really good or the police are ipetent."


    "Tell them I will financially support the operation to catch the syndicate."
