Chapter 362 Lost
Time passed, and Emily wandered around the ancient town for a day. She was tired and hungry However, she had yet to find a familiar building.
Seeing that it was about to rain, Emily had no choice but to find a place to hide. On the other side, Lucas and Vivian had already returned to the inn. They met in the living room and found that Emily was not there. “Mr. Greens, where is Emily?” “Is she not with you?” Lucas asked in surprise. Obviously, both of them thought that Emily was with the other party. Vivian shook her head and said, “I didn’t see Emily since I separated from you in the morning.” “Mommy didn’t get lost, did she?” Ethan frowned and asked worriedly. “I’ll give her a call,” Lucas said worriedly. However, her phone was turned off. When Vivian saw that he was frowning and his expression was not very good, she asked, “What’s wrong?” “Emily’s phone is off,”
Lucas put down his phone and answered honestly. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Maybe it’s out of battery. Let’s wait a little longer. If Emily doesn’t come back later, we’ll go out and look for her.” However, Lucas could not wait like this. He was especially worried about the heavy rain outside. “How about this, you wait for Emily here and take care of the two children. Mason and I will go out to find her.” After saying this, he walked out of the hotel without looking back. When Mason saw this, he hurriedly took the umbrella provided by the inn and chased after him. When Lucas saw him, he instructed, “Go find the patrol officers of the scenic spots and ask them to help.”
“Yes”
Mason nodded and accepted the order. At the same time, he did not forget to remind Lucas to be careful when he acted. Lucas followed the direction where Emily left during the day and searched carefully all the way
At this time, there were no longer any tourists in the ancient town, and the surrounding shops were closed.
Emily had nowhere to go and could only hide under a slightly dark eave. She squatted on the ground and looked forward with her hands on her knees. She was cold, tired, and scared. There was no other reason. The place where she was now was very remote. However, there was a dark alley next to her, like an endless abyss, which made her feel inexplicably scared. Besides the rain, there was no other sound around, which made Emily feel very uneasy, as if she was the only one in the world. Emily hugged herself tightly, and her eyes could not help but redden.
At this moment, she regretted leaving in a fit of pique with Lucas during the day. She buried her head in her arms, as if this could make her feel more at ease. After a long time, she vaguely heard the sound of shouting.
“Emily-”
With an umbrella in hand, Lucas carefully searched for Emily in the rain. The rain soaked his clothes, and he couldn’t care less. Finally, he walked forward a hundred meters and saw Emily squatting under the eaves.
Emily also saw Lucas not far away, and the tears she had been holding back suddenly fell.
When Lucas approached, he heard her cry. His heart seemed to be tightly gripped by a pair of invisible hands, and he felt very uncomfortable.
He walked forward and placed the umbrella on Emily’s head. He pulled her into his arms and comforted her, “I’m sorry, I came late.”
When these words came out, Emily completely broke through her defenses, and the emotions she had been suppressing all this time erupted.
“It’s all your fault. It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t made me angry, how could I have lost my way? How could it become like this!”
She clenched her fists and punched Lucas angrily. She cried uncontrollably as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered during this period of time.
Lucas also let her vent. Anyway, her little strength was just an itch for him. Just like this, under Lucas’s indulgence, Emily cried fiercely. When she finally calmed down, she thought of how she had thrown herself into Lucas’s arms and cried. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground and let herself get in.
However, Lucas found that the person in his arms stopped crying. He looked down and asked with concern, “Are you feeling better now?”
Emily turned her head away and pursed her lips in silence. Actually, it was also because she did not know what to say. Seeing this, Lucas thought that she was angry. He sighed and apologized again, “Alright, don’t be angry. I know what I said this morning is not right.” “Of course!”
“Although you are the father of the child, you have no reason to intervene in my social life. Is it because you are the father of the child that I do not even have the qualifications to interact with friends of the opposite sex?”
“You are right, but the important thing now is to go back first. If you have anything to say, can we talk about it when we go back?”
After he finished speaking, he took off his coat and draped it over Emily. Emily felt the residual warmth from his clothes and an unnatural expression flashed across her face. She did not say anything. Then, she stood up with the help of Lucas.
Lucas helped her tidy up her clothes.
