Chapter 157 Appreciation of Her Hearing Charles Johnson’s words, Emily couldn’t help but sneer. “Do you think it’s only money? What she did was reprehensible. Let me tell you, you have to pay for the medicinal herbs. And she is also going to the police station!” In the end, she looked at Mia with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice, “If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price!” Seeing this, Mia was extremely resentful, but she could not refute. Seeing that Emily was about to call the police, she couldn’t care about anything else and rushed over. “You can’t call the police. Give me the phone!” Her reputation was already bad. If she entered the police station again and there was a scandal, she would have no face to go out and see people in the future! Unfortunately, she missed.
Emily had long been prepared for Mia to snatch her phone, so she immediately dodged it. She looked at Mia, who was staggering on the ground, and said condescendingly, “Do you think you’ll be fine after snatching my phone? My phone has an automatic backup cloud disk function, and the recording is already saved! You can take the phone and burn it and it won’t change a thing!” After hearing this, Mia stood up from the ground, and her expression was extremely ugly. Charles Johnson’s expression wasn’t any better. He and Mia were already married now. Whatever she had to suffer, he had to also. Looking at the domineering Emily in front of him, he frowned and said in a deep voice, “How did you become like this now? Be forgiving! We have agreed to compensate!” As soon as he said this, Emily sneered, full of sarcasm. “Charles Johnson, when did you become so forgiving!? Why don’t you ask her? If she had something on me, would she let me go?”. Charles Johnson was stunned and left with a grimace. Emily snorted lightly, “If I am shown respect, I will pay respect. If I am hurt, then an eye for an eye.” When she said this, she paused and swept her cold eyes over Mia. “Also, don’t always stand on the moral high ground to criticize me. If you have the time, you should take care of your wife!” About ten minutes later, two policemen came to the villa. They looked around at Emily and the others and recognized them.

“Mr. Greens, you are here too.” Seeing Lucas, the two policemen showed friendly smiles and took the initiative to greet him. There was no other reason. The Greens Group had always been Y City’s major taxpayer and also an advanced enterprise. Therefore, the police were showing him repsect. Lucas nodded and said indifferently, “This friend of mine has been wronged. I hope that you guys can give her justice.” “Of course.” One of the older policemen nodded, then turned to look at Emily and asked, “Miss, what happened?” “It’s like this. This woman maliciously ordered a man to destroy my herb field. This is the evidence!” Emily said and took out the recording from before. After the police heard this, the evidence was conclusive, and Lucas was still watching from the side, so they immediately prepared to take Mia away. Mia did not dare to struggle, but she was also unwilling. She stared at Emily with gloomy eyes and gnashed her teeth. “Just you wait!” Unexpectedly, Emily directly complained to the two police officers. “She is still threatening me. Mr. Policeman, did you hear that?” The two policemen frowned. Seeing this, Charles Johnson quickly scolded Mia, “Don’t talk nonsense!” Mia looked at him, feeling wronged, but she did not dare to say anything. In the end, she was taken away by the police. After settling this matter, Emily and Lucas did not stay any longer and followed the police. On the way back, Lucas thought of the scene he had just seen and could not help but laugh. When Emily heard the voice, she looked over in confusion. Her eyes seemed to be asking something. Lucas smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so brave and resourceful.” “I’m not that stupid, am I?” Emily laughed. Then she adjusted her sitting posture and found a comfortable position. She continued slowly, “Do you think I was impulsive?” Lucas did not speak, but the expression on his face helped him answer. Emily choked. She snorted, “I was definitely prepared. And I know my stepsister. She’s just a brainless person. She can be tricked easily.” Lucas nodded and then changed the topic. “I’ll get the lawyer to help you with this matter. The compensation you will get will definitely be enough.” “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Greens.” Emily did not refuse. After all, Lawyer Jin from last time was indeed very useful and saved her a lot of trouble. On the other hand, when Lucas heard her polite thanks, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
“You don’t have to be so polite.” “Huh?” Emily did not react and blinked her eyes to look over. Seeing this, Lucas smiled faintly and said in a low voice, “What I mean is, you don’t · have to thank me. I am doing this for myself. About half of those medicinal herbs, I should be using them.” Hearing this, Emily reacted and felt that this statement was quite right, so she did not stand on ceremony. When they returned home later, Lucy saw the two of them return and immediately went up to them with concern. “How is it? Has the matter been resolved?” “It has been resolved. Grandma, don’t worry.” Emily smiled and comforted her.
