Chapter 281

Seeing Emily’s expression soften, Lucas let out a sigh of relief and quickly snuck in from the doorway.

He set the flowers and fruit on the table, about to call her, but when he caught Emily’s cold look, the word stuck in his throat. “How are you feeling? Any better?” he asked instead.

Emily wasn’t interested in small talk. “What do you want?” she asked bluntly.

In the past, Lucas would’ve totally lost his temper at her attitude.

But lately, for some reason, he always felt a bit uneasy around Emily, and his attitude softened a lot, almost like things were before Lydia came back to the Bennett Family.

Knowing Emily was impatient, he didn’t beat around the bush. “Grandpa’s funeral is tomorrow. Dad asked me to remind you to be there.

“Andrew thinks there’ll be a lot of reporters outside the villa tomorrow, so it’s best if you leave with everyone from the Bennett Family.”

“Even though the whole photo thing has been dealt with, people are still talking. Andrew wants to clear things up at the funeral, and it’ll be easier to handle if you’re there,” he explained.

Even though she knew Charles was gone, hearing the funeral still made Emily’s heart tremble; she couldn’t help but feel a pang inside.

Emily had to go to the funeral. She didn’t want Charles’s name to be tarnished when he left this world, so she didn’t turn down the Bennett Family’s arrangements. “I’ll come back to the Bennett Family tonight,” she said.

As she spoke, she didn’t even look at Lucas; her attitude made it obvious he wasn’t welcome here.
