Chapter 380 It Was Young Madam Greens’ Responsibility
Emily and the others enjoyed the meal in harmony. The happiest person was Peiying. If Zhenting had not called, she
would not have been willing to go back. After a simple farewell, Emily sent Peiying downstairs. On the way, she still
couldn’t hold back and asked, “Mrs. Greens, it might be a little presumptuous of me to ask this, but I still want to
ask, how is Mr. Greens’ situation abroad?” Hearing this, Peiying turned her head to look at her. “I thought you
wouldn’t ask.” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. With a complicated look in her eyes, she said,
“You know why I didn’t agree with you being together with Lucas before. Because your birth is simply unable to help
Lucas. For example, if you were the daughter of a certain powerful family, the things that Lucas encountered would
be easily resolved, and he wouldn’t be facing these things alone outside right now.” When these words came out,
Emily’s expression froze, and her heart was constantly surging with emotions. It was very uncomfortable. But
before she could say anything, Mrs. Greens suddenly changed the topic and sighed. “Although his father and I don’t
think well of you, you are still…” Originally, Peiying wanted to say that she was the children’s mother, but when she

has taken a fancy to you and is determined. For you, he almost abandoned his parents.” Hearing this, it would be a
lie to say that Emily was unhappy.
Peiying also saw it and felt a little sad. “Although we won’t force Lucas, we won’t easily agree to this unless Doctor
Armstrong proves to us that you can take the responsibility of Young Madam of Greens family.” Emily was stunned
and surprised when she saw Mrs. Greens’ sharp gaze. She never expected that Mrs. Greens would make such a
request. However, she was not even a boyfriend or girlfriend with Lucas now. She did not know how to answer this.
Moreover, she also felt a little guilty in her heart. She did not forget how she had retorted that she had nothing to
do with Lucas.
Just as she was embarrassed and at a loss, a black car stopped at the gate of the community.
Zhenting came down from the top and saw that Emily and Peiying were at the gate. He could not help but be
disappointed and asked, “Where are the two children?” “The two children are doing homework at home.”
Peiying did not wait for Emily to answer and took the initiative to speak. Then she said goodbye to Emily, “Doctor
Armstrong, good night.” “Good night.” Emily nodded to bid farewell. Seeing the two cars gradually disappear into
the streets, she breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart became heavy. Obviously, what Mrs. Greens said just now
still affected her, making her not know what to do.
However, when she thought about it again, she and Lucas were not even a couple yet. It was obviously useless to
think about this. Because of this, she quickly threw this matter to the back of her mind. Or it could be said that she
had consciously forgotten it.
In New York. After three days of investigation, Mason finally found the culprit behind the collapse of the gold mine.
“Although the scene of the accident was a blind spot in the surveillance cameras, after multiple investigations and
inquiries, we have locked onto a suspect, Harold.” Mason reported to Lucas respectfully, “This is a patrol on the
mine. Several days before the incident, someone often saw him wandering around the place where the accident
happened. And the most suspicious thing is that this person is good at gambling. After work every day, he would
gamble. But during those days, he did not go to the casino. At the same time, he was secretly transferring his
property and handling the immigration procedures.” Lucas’s face went terribly cold. “Since you have found the
person, go catch him. After you find out who is behind this, send him to the police station.” Lucas ordered in a low

voice, then narrowed his eyes and looked back. “As for Zhenhong, it’s time to close the net. Send the order to
suppress the stock and business of Zhenhong Group.” Mason nodded in agreement and turned to instruct the
people below.
That night, Harold, who was about to run away, was captured and brought back by Mason.
Lucas did not participate in the interrogation. Instead, he gave full authority to Mason. As for him, he was in charge
of the counterattack against the Zhenhong Group. Moreover, he did not use any tricks, but directly used an open
scheme to declare war on the Zhenhong Group. When Y City’s wealthy businessmen learned of this news, they
were all shocked by Lucas’ iron-blooded methods. In less than a day, the Zhenhong Group lost hundreds of millions,
and it was still ongoing. In the office, Ruan Xun heard his assistant report the situation of the company. His face was
terribly gloomy. He was about the same age as Lucas, but his temperament and appearance were worlds apart.
If one were to describe Lucas as a noble son, then he would be an unremarkable commoner. It was only because of
his good luck that he had such a noble status.
“Are you all trash? You can’t even win over our clients of so many years. What use do I have for you?”
