Chapter 87
"Why do you come here?" Emily frowned and turned to leave.
The person who had brought her in earlier stopped her and said, "Miss Johnson, since you're here, let's talk! Mr. Wright really wants to buy your car."
"Humph, even if he wants to buy it, I won't sell it to him," said Emily coldly.
The man frowned and looked at Lucas with an embarrassed expression. Lucas waved to let him go and he immediately excused himself. Emily didn't notice that he left hurriedly and closed the door.
She would like to pull open the door but failed. Then she turned to Lucas angrily, "Lucas, you even have the door locked. What do you really want?"
She was not afraid of Lucas. After all, they had known each other for so long, and she knew him well. She was just angry because he had her tricked to get here.
"Emily, don't be angry.” Lucas quickly said.
Emily said angrily, "Don't call me like that. It sounds disgusting to me." An embarrassed look flashed across Lucas's face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay. I just want to talk to you. We used to love each other so much. Even after we broke up, don't we even have a chance to sit down and talk peacefully?”
Emily sneered, "l used to want to sit down and talk to you peacefully, but have you given me a chance? But you want to talk to me now. What on earth do you want to talk about?"
“I'm sorry. I know it's all my fault...”
"Well, don't say that at this time. Both of us have married. And we were over long ago.” Emily interrupted.
Lucas had a miserable expression on his face. It seemed Emily's cold words had hurt him a lot.
Emily frowned fiercely, pursed her lips and said, "This is the last time. If you have anything to say, just make it clear today! After that, we will never see each other again. Even if we meet accidentally, we shall ignore each other.”
"Thank you, Emily.” When Lucas heard that she was willing to talk to him, he immediately smiled with joy.
He politely pulled out her chair and placed her favorite dishes in front of her, "These are all your favorites. I hope your taste hasn't changed after such a long time."
Emily sat expressionlessly and had no appetite to eat. She said coldly, "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Lucas lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm regretful now..."
"Stop saying these words. There's no point in saying them.” Emily interrupted him again.
Lucas smiled bitterly, "You're still the same without changes and you still have a clear sense of gratitude and resentment. With your personality, I really can't imagine how you get along with my Youngest Uncle. My Youngest Uncle was the first son of my grandfather in later life, so he is highly valued. He has always been bossy and arrogant. Furthermore, he doesn't even bother to show hypocrisy to people and things he didn't like. Meanwhile, he likes to give orders, disses people and makes them heartbroken. I'm wondering who is the bossy one and who is the obedient one in your marriage. *
"Do you really know her? I don't think he's as bad as you say." Emily frowned and was a little unhappy.
"Isn't he?" Lucas smiled bitterly.
Emily thought for a moment. Although Franklin didn't know how to sweet-talk, it was normal for him because she was not his sweetheart. Sometimes he would say harsh words, but he didn't do it for no reason. Overall, Franklin treated her well. Now that Lucas had said that he was so bad, her impression of Lucas became even worse.
"You don't have to worry about how I get along with him. You'd better take care of your affairs with Iris.” Emily said angrily.
Lucas smiled bitterly and said, "Iris and I... I want to divorce her, but she doesn't agree.”
"Divorce? Why? You haven't been married for long," Emily said in surprise.
"The last time she miscarried and actually she did it on purpose. And I knew about it." Lucas said slowly.
Emily pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
It seemed that Lucas knew that Iris's baby was not his. No wonder he wanted a divorce. After all, she was with Lucas, but she didn't cherish him and she even was still fooling around with others.
"You knew it! Did uncle tell you? It seemed that he was really kind to you. He investigated it thoroughly for fear that you would feel guilty. He let Jason give the information to me, and I didn't expect it to be like this." Lucas smiled bitterly.
"Ah, he still gave it to you?" Emily was surprised.
Last time Franklin said he didn't care about someone else's wife. She thought he wouldn't tell Lucas about it.
"I think it's because Iris trapped you on purpose to avenge you!" Lucas said.
Emily was taken aback and her cheeks slightly flushed. She could not help but lower her head with mixed feelings.
Lucas said again. "Actually, he's really good to you. At least, you're very important to him."
"Come on, you don't have to worry about me. You want to divorce Iris? Have you talked?” Emily quickly blushed and changed the topic.
Lucas sneered, "How could she agree? She just got married to me and signed a prenuptial agreement. How could she let me go easily? Besides, the child was gone and she got shares from a new company and a position as well. If we divorce, the company will be divided into several parts. It wouldn't be a big loss to me, but it wouldn't be good for our family.”
"So you came to me for what?"
He was not about to ask her to persuade Iris to divorce him, was he? But he knew clearly about her relationship with Iris. They were so hostile to each other that she would never persuade Iris to do anything. "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to persuade her." Lucas seemed to have guessed her worry and said quickly.
Emily could not help but heave a sigh of relief, "That's good. I really can't help you if you let me persuade her. You know, even though we are sisters, we are not close at all. Our relationship is poor than strangers.”
"I must divorce.” Lucas said, "This woman is really vicious. Actually, I met you today to remind you to be careful of her later. I didn't know if you still remembered the last time Lily splashed ink to you? In fact, she's part of it."
"Ah? Was it related to Iris?" Emily was surprised.
Lucas said, "Yes, Lily had been warned by my uncle and didn't dare to make trouble for you. But after she met Ivy, Ivy introduced Lily to Mrs. Brent, so Lily got the courage again that to you because they backed her up.”
"So it was Ivy!" Emily sneered.
No wonder Franklin said that Lily didn't dare to do anything to her. Later he said that there was someone behind her, but he didn't say who it was. It was Ivy. He just didn't want to tell her about Ivy's behavior. But she didn't understand that since Ivy was so innocent and kind to her, how could Ivy do that to her? Why she was that hypocritical?
