Chapter 26


    Chapter 26 Likable


    Lucas insisted, “Your mother treated my illness and was kind to me. Buying some toys for you is no


    problem at all!” Ethan still shook his head and refused to ept. Lucas praised him in his heart. This


    child was polite, humble, and not greedy at all. This Ms. Armstrong had raised such a child. Her


    parenting was quite sessful. Mason could not help but say, “Your mommy and daddy really know


    how to raise


    children.”


    It was also the first time he had seen such likable children.


    Ethan frowned, obviously unhappy. “We don’t have a daddy, only Mommy and great-grandmother.” His


    voice was also unhappy, apparently offended. Lucas and Mason were stunned. They seemed to have


    mentioned something that should not be mentioned.


    Speaking of which, they had not seen any sign of a father since they came in. They had met Ms.


    Armstrong twice before, and she was alone both times.


    They guessed she was probably divorced.


    “Kiddo, I’m sorry. Uncle did not mean it that way.”


    Mason apologized sincerely. He had no intention of hurting Ethan. Although it was a single-parent


    household, these two children were very outstanding. Ethan did not mind. “It’s okay. I have epted it.


    Although I don’t have a daddy, I am the man of the house. I will protect this family.” He spoke very


    seriously, his eyes filled with determination. He was the only man in this family. In the future, he had to


    protect his great-grandmother, mommy, and sister. Lucas and Mason were speechless, only looking at


    him fixedly. Such a young child had such great ambitions. Ethan was not embarrassed. He yed by


    himself quietly and the room was silent. On the other side, Emily and Sofia had already arrived at the


    medicine shop. The so-called ‘medicine shop’ was actually a small warehouse downstairs and the


    medicinal herbs she had nted were all ced inside.


    The temperature here was low and was very suitable for storing medicinal herbs. “Emily, look here!”


    Vivian’s energetic voice came. Emily looked up and saw her best friend, supporting her grandmother,


    walking over. “Why are you here?”


    She was a little surprised. Shouldn’t they be at Aunt Zhang’s house? “We wanted toe out for a


    walk, but we happened to bump into you. Alright, we were just about to look for you. We were afraid


    that something might have happened.” Vivian walked over and asked her curiously, “Emily, where did


    those peoplee from?”


    Lucy was also half curious and half worried. “Let’s go in and talk.”


    The three of them entered the medicine shop and sat down. Emily smiled and exined to them what


    had happened. “He is my creditor and my patient. When I was driving on the road, I identally hit


    their car and negotiated to pay the 100,000 yuan damages in installments. Later, I went to Mr.


    Hawking’s clinic to do business and happened to meet them there. That guy was not feeling well, so I


    helped to treat him. The money I owed them will be deducted from the treatment fee. He was not


    feeling well today, so he came to me.”


    The two of them understood the whole story and breathed a sigh of relief. “Since this group of people


    did note to cause trouble for us, that’s great. My heart is in a mess.”


    Grandma smiled. She knew that her granddaughter had always been reliable. How could she get into


    trouble with debtors or gangsters? Emily soothed her. “Grandma, nothing will happen to me.” “So that’s


    what happened. I was scared to death. I thought he was a loan shark. But that man is really handsome!


    It’s the first time I’ve seen such a handsome man.”


    Vivian had a longing look on her face, regretting that she had only been focused on fear just now and


    had not gotten a better look.


    Emilyughed at her. “You are a love-struck fool.” Holding her hand, Sofia looked up at her. “Mommy, I


    also think that uncle is very good-looking.” She could not help butugh. Lucas was naturally


    handsome.


    However, what did it have to do with her?


    She estimated that it had been almost half an hour. She packed up the medicine, supported Grandma,


    and the group went back.


    “Mommy, it’s about time.” Ethan said..


    Emily went forward and pulled out the needles one by one. “Get up.” Lucas was covered in sweat and


    got up to get dressed. She was careful and secretly nced over, wanting to see the tattoo on his


    chest. However, Lucas always had his back to her as he got dressed. She couldn’t see anything on his


    chest at all. Emily was very anxious, if only she had x-ray vision at that very moment! He had already


    put on his clothes and was about to look back when she hurriedly looked away. If she was found out,


    she would have no way to exin herself.


    She was somewhat regretful. Fortunately, there were still more chances in the future. He wille for


    acupuncture again. I’ll get a good look at it someday’, she silentlyforted herself. “Ms. Armstrong,


    what is this?” Mason took a look at the medicine in her hand and asked her for her instructions. “It’s


    traditional herbal medicine. Simmer it and take it after three times a day after meals.”


    She handed the medicine in her left hand to Lucas and looked at the medicine in her right hand.


    “There is also this one. It is a medicated bath you must take every day. Soak in it for half an hour


    before going to bed at night, and it can alleviate the pain in your body.” Lucas took the medicine and


    asked her, “How much is it in total?” “A total of 50,000 yuan. Cash or transfer?” Emily replied calmly.
