Chapter 84


    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 ufortable.


    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


    here 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? NoThis is from N?velDrama.Org.


    matter how old themunity 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 ssified by thepany, 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 shed


    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 exined, “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


    she 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 littleplicated.


    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.
