Ex-husband's Sweet Trap novel Chapter 69

Henry put his hands in his pockets with a determined look.

"Henry, it might be better to just let this go. There's no need to get involved in this."

He had nothing to hide from his best friend. The incident at Gold KTV was purely an accident. Sometimes, it was better to avoid more troubles when it came to the mafia. Since Luz had come back safe and sound, there was no need to continue investigating this matter.

"I can't just let it go. If it's not convenient for you to show up, I'll talk to them directly."

Henry frowned. If it weren't for their good luck, they would have died.

"There's nothing inconvenient for me. I'm just worried that if you continue to investigate them, they'll do something desperate. Henry, this group is not an ordinary syndicate." A group that can lead the police on a wild goose chase for so many years couldn't be easy to deal with.

"Then let them be desperate."

Without any room for negotiation, Henry said word by word from his thin, sharp lips. Lucas spread out his hands and said, "Okay, I will contact them."

"Now, let's talk about the progress of your relationship. Did you..."

Lucas not only winked at him but also gave him an ambiguous smile. When a man and a woman were alone in a rural forest, there were only so many things that could happen.

Henry's face darkened slightly. He wanted something to happen.

"Really? Looks like you're destined to be wrapped around her finger." It was a waste of such a good opportunity.

Henry glared at him coldly. Lucas covered his mouth with his hand and said, "Let me see if the food is ready. I came to pick you up early in the morning. I'm starving."

He ran for her life and went downstairs. The food had been served on the table.

"Lucas, you came down just in time. I was just about to call you. Where's Henry?" The old lady couldn't hide the happiness on her face. She was happy as long as her family came back safely.

"He'll come down soon. Grandma, I'm going to eat more today. I'm absolutely starving."

"Okay, okay, okay, eat more."

After Lucas finished his act in front of the old lady, Henry came down from upstairs and saw the table full of food. The old lady couldn't help but feel a little emotional. "It's been a long time since our family was so lively."

Ever since Henry's father passed away, the house had become cold.

"Grandma, if you want to be lively, I'll ask Lucas to come over for a few more meals in the future.

"

Henry held her hand, which was already showing signs of aging. In the past seven years, he had little time to accompany her.

"No problem, grandma. I've always liked to come to your place to eat for free since I was a child."

Lucas immediately cooperated with him and amused the old lady easily.

"You're such a sweet talker. I don't know which girl will be deceived by your glib tongue in the future." The old lady's eyes fell on Mia's face as she spoke. "I think this girl is good."

"..."

Mia instantly felt embarrassed. She would be willing to sacrifice herself for the sake of amusing the old lady, but not in this situation. She wasn't blind enough to get together with a scumbag.

"Grandma, let's eat."

Luz quickly changed the topic for her best friend. The old lady picked up a glass filled with juice and said, "I'm really happy today. Let's have a toast."
