Chapter 550 There Was Another Scheme
Not long after, the restaurant waiter served the dishes. “I wish everyone a pleasant meal.” After saying that, the waiter left the
room. Seeing this, Elder Wen greeted, “Since all the dishes are served, let’s eat.” Hearing this, Emily and Mr. Hawking were no
longer beholden to formalities and began to eat with chopsticks. For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was quite pleasant.
Elder Wen and Mr. Hawking talked. Wen Jinyi also found a topic to chat with Emily. Only Wen Jiahan sat silently by the side, as if
she had been forgotten. Wen Jiahan looked at the happy scene in front of her, and a trace of hatred flashed in the depths of her
eyes. However, she did not show it on her face. Instead, the corners of her mouth curled into a smile. She picked up the wine
glass next to her and made a toast to Emily. “Sister Emily, I propose a toast to you. I hope that we can abandon the past and
become friends.” Hearing this, Emily frowned and looked at Wen Jiahan. Her intuition told her that something was amiss.
Moreover, she could not believe that this woman would change for the better. Looking at Emily who was silent for a long time, a
dark light flashed in Wen Jiahan’s bright eyes. “Sister Emily, don’t you want to be friends with me?” She looked over with a face
full of grievances. Then, she said sadly, “I know that what I did before was too much. But now, I have really changed my mind. I
want to get along well with you. Can’t you give me a chance?” When Emily heard this, she felt extremely disgusted. However,
she was in the way of the two old men, so it was not good for her to refuse directly. In the end, she reluctantly pulled her lips and
said coldly, “I shall drink this glass of wine. As for the rest, I prefer to let nature take its course.”
The implication was that she did not want to become friends with Wen Jiahan.
But Wen Jiahan seemed to not have heard it. She watched as Emily drank the wine, and her face immediately revealed a happy
smile.
“Since you drank this glass of wine, then we are friends.” After she finished speaking, she moved the chair towards Emily. She
held Emily’s arm like a good sister and said with a smile, “Sister Emily, I heard that Y City has a lot of fun places here.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to come over and have a good time. I wonder if you have time in the future. I want to invite you
to play together.” Emily looked at the woman beside her and felt uncomfortable.
She pulled her hand out of Wen Jiahan’s arms and moved two steps to the side. She declined, “Thank you for your invitation,
Miss Wen. But I may not have much time.” “Are you so busy?” Wen Jiahan looked at her in disbelief. Emily nodded. “I’m very
busy. I usually have to deal with medicinal herbs. I also have to go to the medicinal field to take care of the medicinal herbs. If
there is a patient, I have to see a doctor. I also need to take care of the old lady at home. So if Miss Wen wants to play, you
should find someone else.” Hearing this, Wen Jiahan felt that it was just an excuse for Emily to reject her. But before she could
say anything, Mr. Hawking spoke up. “Wen Jiahan, if you want to play, let your cousin take you there. Since Ms. Armstrong said
that she has no time, don’t bother her.” “... Got it.” Wen Jiahan said in disappointment. In fact, she had a purpose in looking for
Emily to play. Yes, she had not given up on Lucas.
Moreover, she swore that she would snatch Lucas from Emily. Even if she could not, she wanted to disgust them to the point that
Emily could not be with Lucas.
Why was it that she was hated by everyone, but that slut, Emily, could finally get
together with Lucas?
She was unwilling.
However, she also understood that she could not brazenly inquire about Lucas right now, which was why she thought of getting
close to Emily. But now it seemed that Emily’s guard against her was not ordinary. It seemed that it was impossible to get news
of Lucas from Emily. It didn’t matter. She could investigate it herself. Emily didn’t know about this. She saw that Wen Jiahan had
calmed down and heaved a sigh of relief.
After dinner later, Elder Wen still wanted to continue.
Emily didn’t want to continue. She declined, “I’m sorry, Elder Wen. I have to go back
There are still many things waiting for me at home.” Hearing this, Elder Wen felt sorry, but he didn’t force her. “Well, I’ll ask Jinyi
to send you back.” “No need, Young Master Wen. Someone is here to pick me up.” Emily refused again. When Elder Wen heard
this, he smiled and said, “It must be Mr. Greens.” “Yes, he is already outside.” Emily nodded with a smile. “Since that’s the case,
let’s go out together. I can say hello to Mr. Greens.” After that, he motioned for Wen Jinyi to come and help him. After a while, the
group of people walked out of the restaurant and saw Lucas standing upright on the street in a black suit. “Lucas.” Emily jogged
over. When Lucas saw her, his cold face instantly softened. He held her hand and said gently, “Are you full?” “I’m full. Have you
eaten?” Emily looked over with concern. “Yes, Mason ordered takeout.” Lucas nodded. While the two were talking, Elder Wen
and Mr. Hawking also walked over. “Mr. Greens, long time no see.” Elder Wen took the initiative to greet him.
Wen Jinyi also nodded and called out to Mr. Greens.
