Chapter 151
He Really wanted to Help Her “There is no surveillance.”
Emily said in a deep voice. Then, she paused for a moment and explained, “This area is full of familiar
neighbors. Nothing happened in the past few years.” It was also because of this that she did not think
of installing surveillance. After hearing this, Lucas frowned. “This is difficult.” Emily did not speak, her
mood in a mess.
Lucas did not care. He glanced at her and then glanced at the destroyed medicine garden. He
narrowed his eyes and analyzed, “In that case, the other party must have deliberately destroyed it
when there was no one around.” Emily pursed her lips in silence, but the expression on her face
showed that she agreed with Lucas’s words. It was just that she temporarily could not think of who
would do this!
William?
Or Mia?
Emily clenched her fists, her expression grave. Looking at her not-so-happy face, Lucas did not say
anything more. Instead, he turned to Mason and instructed him a few words. “Go and take a look
around and see if there is anything suspicious.”

Mason nodded and turned to leave. Seeing this, Emily thanked Lucas gratefully, “Thank you.” “Doctor
Armstrong, you don’t have to be so polite with me.” As Lucas spoke, he looked up. His dark eyes
carried a gentleness that even he did not notice.
Emily also did not realize. At this moment, all of her attention was on the medicine garden.
Lucy looked at the ruined medicine garden, both distressed and helpless. She turned her head and
said in a choked voice, “Emily, what should we do now?” Emily bit her lower lip, and she did not know
what to do next either. Lucas also saw her helplessness and confusion and asked aloud. “Can these
medicinal herbs be saved?” Hearing this, perhaps reminded by the man’s calm voice, Emily calmed
down a little.
She looked around the herbal garden. Although it was destroyed, there were still some medicinal herbs
that were stubbornly holding on.
“Yes.”
As she spoke, she had already made her move. She entered the herbal field and began to clean up the
mess. Her heart ached as she picked up the ordinary medicinal herbs that had been uprooted from the
ground. She put the ones that were not badly damaged together.
Although these were damaged a lot, they could still be used, but the medicinal effect would not be very
good. What pained Emily the most was the rare medicinal herbs that she had cultivated with great
difficulty.
She saw that the medicinal herbs had been destroyed to the point of being almost hopeless!
In a split second, Emily could not help but feel her eyes turn red. It had to be known that in order to
cultivate these precious medicinal herbs, she had spent a lot of time and energy. Sometimes, it would
even rain in the middle of the night and she would wake up and rush to the garden. She was afraid that
the rain would hurt these precious medicinal herbs. Lucy also noticed Emily’s low mood. After all, no
one knew better than her what this medicine field meant to her granddaughter.
“Don’t be sad. We are fine. After cleaning up, I will help you plant the herbs.”
Lucy stepped forward and comforted her in a hoarse voice. Emily did not speak and nodded gently.
She took a deep breath and began to clean up the withered medicinal herbs on the ground. At the
same time, she was also somewhat glad that she had transplanted some precious medicinal herbs to
the manor at the top of the mountain in the morning. Just like this, Emily and Lucy began to clean up
the medicinal fields. The two of them carefully wrapped up the medicinal herbs that could still be used.
If it could still be transplanted, they would put it away. Looking at the busy figures of the two, Lucas also
rolled up his sleeves and carefully walked into the herb field. “I’ll help too. Doctor Armstrong, tell me
what to do?” He looked at Emily with a look of curiosity.

Emily was stunned for a moment. As if she did not expect that Lucas would take the initiative to ask for
help, a strange feeling crossed her heart, and she felt a little warm. Then she shook her head and
refused, “Thank you for your kindness, but you should not come over. Grandma and I can handle this.”
Lucas frowned and wanted to say something. But before he could say anything, Emily’s soft voice
sounded again. “I know that Mr. Greens wants to help, but some of these medicinal herbs need special
treatment to be preserved. And Mr. Greens can’t learn these methods in a short time.”
He could only leave the herb field. He looked at the old woman and young woman who were busy in
the medicinal field, and his heart was inexplicably uncomfortable. He wanted to do something. “Doctor
Armstrong, is there anything I can do?” Hearing this, Emily stopped what she was doing and turned to
look. Inadvertently, her line of sight and Lucas’ line of sight converged in the air.
Their eyes met, and she could tell from the man’s eyes that he was serious and really wanted to help
her do something.
Almost at the moment of this realization, she felt a warm feeling in her heart. After thinking for a while,
Emily did not refuse and said in a light voice, “If possible, Mr. Greens can help me pick up Ethan and
Sofia from school. Is that okay?” Her tone was so careful, and her eyes were clearly red, but she still
pretended to be strong. Lucas was very touched.
“Okay, I will pick them up.” He nodded and agreed.
