Chapter 334 It Relied on Her Own Efforts
After sending her father away with great difficulty, Chase Smith could not suppress the anger in her heart no
matter what. “Emily, you deserve to die!”
In her opinion, Emily must have said something to Lucas that made Lucas so persistent. Of course, what made her
most angry was that after so long, Lucas and Emily were still together! Could it be that even the elders of the
Greens family could not stop the two of them from being together? Thinking of this, she could not help but call her
mother. “Mommy, why have Lucas and Emily not separated yet, and Lucas even had the energy to come and
trouble me!”
“What? What happened?” Mrs. Smith heard the anger in her daughter’s words and immediately asked with
concern.
Chase Smith told her about how Lucas had arranged for people to go to the company to claim the money. As
expected, Mrs. Smith’s face did not look any better after listening to it. This action of Lucas was clearly slapping
their Smith family in the face. Thinking of this, she said in a deep voice, “I understand. I will visit your Auntie Edward
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin a while.” After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone and asked the butler to prepare the car.
However, on Chase Smith’s side, perhaps because she was worried, she called her assistant and told her to
investigate Peiying Edward’s recent schedule.
Later, Mrs. Smith arrived at the Greens family’s old house. As soon as she entered the gate, she found the change
in the old house. After entering the old house, the first thing she saw was the garden Peiying was most proud of.
The expensive flowers and trees inside had all been planted by her.
Now, the garden had become a grassland, and there was a small family amusement park built on it, filled with
children’s toys.
When Mrs. Smith saw this, she had a bad feeling in her heart.
In fact, this premonition was verified after she communicated with Peiying. –
“I haven’t been here for a while. I see that your house has changed a lot. By the way, what happened to your
flowers?” Mrs. Smith pretended to chat indifferently. Peiying smiled and said, “I moved my flowers to the back.”
“Why did you suddenly move them?” Mrs. Smith asked. Then she joked, “You’ve changed the garden into a family
amusement park. What’s going on?” In fact, she wanted to ask if Peiying wanted to be a stepgrandmother. Peiying
also understood what she meant, but she did not intend to tell the truth. No matter how good their relationship was,
this was the Greens family’s private matter.
Moreover, she was not at ease to let Chase Smith know about this matter.
“I just made some preparations in advance,”
Peiying answered perfunctorily. Mrs. Smith didn’t believe it at all. She probed again, “Even if you made preparations
in advance, it wouldn’t have to be so early, right?”
Hearing her persistent words, the smile on Peiying’s mouth faded a little. * In her opinion, Mrs. Smith was a little out
of line.
“This is my home. I can arrange it in whatever way I want. Why must there be a reason?” “… Hehe, I was just
joking.” Mrs. Smith finally noticed Peiying’s displeasure and smiled awkwardly. Peiying glanced at her. In fact, she
was very clear about her purpose in coming here. She simply said it directly, “I know why you came here. Chase
wants to marry into our family. That can only rely on her own efforts. I can’t interfere.” As soon as she said this, the
smile on Mrs. Smith’s face froze. She naturally could tell that Peiying was warning her. In the end, in order not to
make Peiying dislike her, she suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and changed the topic, talking about the
gossip in the circle. Peiying also eased up. However, the harmonious atmosphere was still destroyed.
Not long after, Mrs. Smith took the initiative to leave. Peiying let the butler send her away. And Emily did not know
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmabout these things. After working in the herbal field for half a day, she finally managed to collect all the mature
medicinal materials and put them away before it was dark. Lucas looked at Emily who looked tired. His eyes showed
his heartache. He stepped forward to take the tools in her hand and said softly, “Dinner is ready. Go wash your
hands first.”
“Okay, thank you, Mr. Greens.” Emily nodded without any politeness. After that, she took Lucy to wash up and then
returned to the dining room. The two little ones felt sorry for Emily and Great-Grandma, who had been busy all
afternoon and kept picking up food for them. The atmosphere in the dining room was very harmonious and warm.
After the meal, Lucas wanted to let Emily stay for a night and go back tomorrow morning. However, he was
rejected by Emily. Although her relationship with Lucas had changed during this period of time, Peiying’s arrival
today made her realize a problem. Her current relationship with Lucas was still that of a doctor and a patient.
Before certain things were confirmed, it was better to maintain a safe distance. Just like what her grandmother had
said, she could not allow history to repeat itself.
