Chapter 3
705 Words
A city.
It was already night time when Lucas Han picked up Erin and Earl from the airport.
"Erin, Earl, you guys are finally here!"
Lucas was so excited that his hands were shaking. He almost ran over to give the big boss a hand.
Erin put the hands in her pant pockets and said lightly, "Uncle Lucas is being so polite."
"No, no, no, It's fine. I'll be entrusting you to deal with that thorny problem of mine."
Lucas went ahead and personally opened the car door for Erin. His subordinate was dumbfounded as he watched.
Who was this lady who was commanding such respect from Boss Han?
They looked like kids. She was to handle the problem that even Boss Han found difficult to deal with?
Erin nodded to Lucas Han,"Relax."
She turned around and took Earl into the car.
...
Lucas Han lived in a bungalow in the city centre. The tall metal gate was imposing.
The helper opened the door.
"We're here." Lucas personally went and opened the car door of them again and showed them the way.
Earl followed them carrying a black oversized bag. He looked so pitiful as though he were being abused. Erin paid him no mind, languidly playing a game on her phone.
Lucas couldn't bear watching him." Earl, do you want me to carry the bag for you?"
Earl waved his hand and proudly said, "No, it's my pleasure to help my sister."
Lucas looked at Erin who didn't turn back and his lips twitched.
Earl pulled on the strap of the bag and followed them into the house.
The living room.
Lucas's wife, Dacia Han, sat on the sofa. When she saw the group coming in, she got up to receive them.
"You're back," Dacia got up and removed Lucas's jacket and greeted Erin with an unnatural expression, "Erin."
Erin looked up from her cell phone screen and smiled, "Madam Han."
Even though she has such a fine looking girl, she gave off bad vibes.
The slight curve in the corner of her lips was pretty, there was cold ruthlessness about it.
Dacia had looked into Erin's profile. She was a delinquent who got into fights and truancy was completely normal for her.
The only thing that was presentable about here were her delicate features.
She just couldn't wrap here head around why her husband would want to be associated with such a person! He even let her into the house!
What would they do if she were to be a bad influence to Wendy and Will!
Lucas didn't notice the displeasure behind Dacia's eyes. He unbuttoned his cuffs, rolled them up and said, " Erin, it's late. You and Earl should rest. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
Erin gave an absent-minded response in acknowledgement as she dealt a head shot to her opponent in the game.
...
The guest room on the third floor was large.
It seemed like the room had been prepared with great care. Anything they needed was available. Earl was young.
Lucas had placed two beds in the room since it would be convenient for the sister to take care of the brother.
He showed them the way yo himself and said, " If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. Just tell me ok?"
When Erin was done playing her game , she threw her cellphone onto the bed and asked, "When will things be arranged for Earl?"
"Ah! What things?" Earl asked confusedly
Lucas ruffled the boys curly hair and said. "He's too young so the procedures we'll take sometime. It will take roughly two days."
Seeing that no one was feeling him in, he couldn't be bothered to ask again thus he kicked his feet up and started playing a game on his phone.
"Alright, once you have settled it we can then talk bussiness." answered Erin.
Lucas hissed, " Hey! Erin that's too cold. Do you think Uncle Lucas would lie to you?"
Erin turned away emotionless, and took the computer from her bag and played it on the table.
She pulled out a chair and sat down with her legs propped up like a boss.
Earl probably learnt it from her.
