Chapter 924 Where Is Luke?
Chapter 924 Where Is Luke?
Mr. Chase noticed that Julien felt unwell.
Mr. Chase looked in the direction where Julien looked and saw Julien's left arm. Immediately, Mr. Chase remembered his wife's words. His wife told him that Julien's arm was broken when he was saving Sydney.
'At that time, I thought that my wife was joking.
'It's because I couldn't imagine what had happened to Sydney that Julien's arm was even broken when he was saving her.
'However, it seems that what my wife said is true.'
"Julien, your arm hasn't recovered. Give these things to me." After Mr. Chase finished speaking, he reached out his hands and took the things from Julien's left hand.
As soon as Mr. Chase took the things, he felt that they were very heavy. He asked in surprise, "What are the things inside?"
Julien moved his left arm and said, "Leaf says that you like to drink wine and collect wine. I have several bottles of good wine, so I take them here for you."
Now nothing was in Julien's left hand, so the pain in his left arm gradually disappeared.
Mr. Chase's eyes lit up when he heard that the things in his hands were wine. "Wine. It's good... good."
He said with a bright smile on his face.
Obviously, he really liked wine very much.
Seeing that, Julien chuckled. "It's great that you like it."
Mr. Chase said, "I like it very much."
Although he didn't see what kind of wine it was, it wouldn't be bad because it was from Julien.
Maybe it was even better than his wine collection.
The more he thought about it, the happier he was. He became more enthusiastic, raised his hand and invited Julien to go in. "Alright, Julien, let's go. They went in a long time ago."
"OK, Uncle." Julien nodded slightly and followed Mr. Chase to walk into the villa.
In the living room of the villa, Sydney and Mrs. Chase sat together. Mrs. Chase kindly held Sydney's hand and put it on her lap. They were chatting.
When they chatted about something happy, both smiled.
Sydney smiled so happily that her eyes were shining as if stars were in her eyes. Seeing that, Julien also smiled.
"Julien, have a seat please." As soon as Mr. Chase put down the bags in his hands, he invited Julien to have a seat.
Julien nodded. After he sat down, he noticed that Mr. Chase was going to pour a cup of coffee for him. He said, "Uncle, just leave it to me."
Mr. Chase was Julien's future "father-in-law," and this was the first time Julien visited the Chases. This was a good opportunity for Julien to leave a good impression.
Hearing that, Mr. Chase paused, but soon, he reacted. They were at his home, not in the business. He was Julien's future "father-in-law."
Thus, it was reasonable that Julien offered to help out.
Mr. Chase withdrew his hand from the coffee pot and smiled embarrassingly. "I haven't got used to it."
Julien smiled, "It doesn't matter."
He took the coffee pot, stood up, and poured four cups of coffee. Then he handed the first cup of coffee to Mr. Chase and the second cup of coffee to Mrs. Chase.
Seeing Julien handing the coffee to him, Mr. Chase took it from Julien's hands and felt flattered in his heart.
'Oh, my God. The president of the Flint Corporation pours the coffee for me personally. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
'In the whole Port City, except for Old Madam Flint and Syd, I may be the third one who has received this honor.
'My wife is the fourth one.'
Compared to Mr. Chase, Mrs. Chase was calmer and didn't think so much as Mr. Chase.
She just felt satisfied that Julien poured coffee for them.
Julien was willing to pour coffee for elders. He was qualified to be Sydney's husband.
Mrs. Chase took a sip of coffee and stood up. "It's time for dinner. I would like to go to the kitchen to see how many dishes haven't been prepared."
"Aunt, I would like to go with you." Sydney also stood up. Then she looked at Julien. "Julien, just have a chat with my uncle here."
"OK." Julien agreed with a smile.
Sydney followed Mrs. Chase to go to the kitchen.
When they arrived at the kitchen, the chef was busy cooking.
Mrs. Chase checked the dishes and nodded. "Only two dishes are unprepared. We will have dinner soon."
Sydney glanced at the kitchen countertop. There were various dishes on it. She couldn't help but marvel, "There are so many dishes. Almost all of them are my favorites."
Mrs. Chase held Sydney's hand and smiled kindly. "Of course, these dishes are all your favorites. It's rare for you to come here. Naturally, I need to prepare your favorite dishes for you."
"It's so kind of you." Sydney hugged Mrs. Chase's waist, leaned against her shoulder and acted cute.
Mrs. Chase patted her head with a smile. "Why do you still like to act cute like a kid?"
Sydney replied with a smile, "In your eyes, I'm always a kid."
Mrs. Chase stroked her head gently. "That's it. No matter how old you're, you're always a kid in my eyes. You're the kid that I like the most."
They chatted intimately.
After a while, Sydney thought of something suddenly. She stood up straight. "By the way, where is Luke?"
Sydney suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Luke since she arrived here.
'Where is Luke?'
Hearing Sydney's question, Mrs. Chase snorted. "He said that he was busy with work in the company. He didn't come back."
"Is Chase Corporation very busy recently?" Sydney looked at Mrs. Chase and said, "But I haven't heard about it."
Skylight Corporation cooperated with Chase Corporation.
If Chase Corporation was busy, Sydney would know about it.
Mrs. Chase curled her lips. "Chase Corporation isn't busy at all. Besides, Luke's father is still in office. He is the chairman and busier than Luke. Even he has come home. Obviously, Luke isn't busy at all."
"So Luke didn't come back on the pretext that he was busy?" Sydney blinked.
Mrs. Chase nodded. "You're right."
"Why?" Sydney felt confused.
Mrs. Chase fell silent and looked at Sydney.
From Mrs. Chase's gaze, Sydney suddenly got to know the reason and widened her eyes slightly. "Is it... because of me?"
Mrs. Chase sighed and nodded slowly. "You have known that Luke likes you. Although he says that he will give up on you, it won't be so quick and will be very difficult. At least, Luke still has feelings for you. You come here with Julien. Of course, he is unwilling to show up here. He is afraid that he will feel sad when he sees how intimate you and Julien are, so he chooses not to come back."
Hearing that, Sydney felt guilty immediately. "I'm sorry... I"
"Don't be like that, Syd." Mrs. Chase interrupted her. "I know what you want to say. You think that he doesn't come back because you refused him. You think that it's all your fault, so you feel guilty, right?"
Sydney looked at Mrs. Chase and nodded. "You're right."
Mrs. Chase smiled. "Silly girl, how can it be your fault? You have done nothing wrong. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness. Luke likes you, but it doesn't mean that you need to love him and accept him. Thus, you have done nothing wrong to refuse him."
"But Luke feels sad because of me." Sydney bit her lip.
Mrs. Chase stroked Sydney's head with a smile. "It's normal for him to feel sad to be refused by you. If he doesn't feel sad, it means that he doesn't like you. He likes you. It's his own business and has nothing to do with you. Of course, he needs to take the consequences for his feelings for you after you refused him."
