Get you in my arms
Chapter 66 Being Promoted To Executive Director

The words stabbed right into John's heart. He was about to lose everything. He couldn't stand still and do nothing.

"What can you do?" He glanced at her disdainfully.

"You will know now." "I heard that you're going to have the surgery the day after tomorrow?"

"When my eyes recover, I will be able to compete with Lucas." Said John, gritting her teeth.

"No, no, no!" "If your eyes wake up, there's no way you can get out of here."

"How could a blind man fight against him?" John tried to open his eyes.

"Think about it. If your eyes get better, her gratitude and guilt to you will disappear, and she can go back to Lucas without any qualms of conscience. What else do you want to play?" Hearing that, Maggie stood up and walked back and forth.

"I will never be blind! I have to get my eyes well. Otherwise, I can only be a burden to her. How can I take care of her and protect her?" He had had enough of these days, blind or short-lived.

"I don't mean to make you blind." Maggie whispered in his ear. Then she smiled wickedly and said, "if you do as I say, I'm sure that Sophia won't be able to leave you. By that time, you provoke them again, and she and Lucas will be done."

John didn't say anything, but in his heart he agreed with Maggie's plan.

Soon after Maggie left, Sophia came.

"Did you have fun on the weekend?" John asked sourly.

"Not bad," "Can you guess who I bumped into?" She shrugged.

"Who?"

"Wendy?"

"Is that the guy who made you drop out of school?"

"Yes, so many years have passed, but I didn't expect that she still hates me!" She sighed.

"You fought again?" John was shocked.

"No, I didn't. Do you think I am still as impulsive as I was in my childhood?" She rolled her eyes at him and picked up a pear to peel.

"That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief and changed the topic. "How are you and Lucas going now?"

"John, you misunderstood what happened to the X Group. All those things were done by his subordinate and had nothing to do with him. And the mysterious businessman who invested 200 million dollars in the X Group was actually Lucas." She spoke slowly, but John didn't listen to a single word of her. He firmly believed, or rather believed that Lucas was an unscrupulous person who took advantage of the situation to take his beloved.

"Sophia, you've changed a lot. You are almost going to lose your judgment because of Lucas." He frowned.

"John, I am telling the truth." She was somewhat helpless.

"I don't want to hear it." John covered his ears, looking like a child.

"Okay, I won't say anything more. Just eat the pear," She sighed slightly and put a piece of pear into his mouth.

On the day of the surgery, Lucas also came. The doctor said the surgery was successful and all the extravasated blood was clear. John's visual nerve was not damaged and he should be able to see the light after he woke up.

Taking a long sigh of relief, she bought a bottle of champagne, planning to celebrate him waking up.

Unexpectedly, after John opened his eyes, he told them that he could only see the light and blurry shadow, and his eyesight degenerated seriously.

Experts were also confused. They thoroughly checked the illness, but still did not replace the cause of it.

Desperate and agitated, John continued, "tell me now! Is this the only way to cure my eyes? I can't see anything! There is no difference between a blind person!"

"Don't worry, John. We have so many experts. We will replace out the problem," She was very sad. If his eyes were not good, how could she be relieved and how could she enjoy her happiness alone? "Sophia, you can go now. Don't come here again. I am a blind woman and I will be your burden. I can no longer protect you!" He grabbed his head in pain and scratched his messy black hair hard. She rushed to him, held his hand, and burst into tears. "John, I won't go anywhere. I'll always be with you. If your eyes are really blind, I'll be your eyes, and take care of you for a lifetime."

She almost forgot that Lucas was standing behind her. His heart was hit hard. He walked up stiffly and held her. "Sophia, calm down. I will replace a better doctor for him. I will cure his eyes." Hearing this, John became more agitated. "Don't shed crocodile tears here! You are dying to cure me!"

Lucas didn't say anything. But he had to put up with that. After all, John was still a patient and Lucas didn't want to stimulate him, There was no way for Sophia to speak for Lucas. The more she said, the more exactly she would do. And John's need was comfort and encouragement.

She thought that after a few days of rest, John would calm down. Unexpectedly, he was even more out of control and clamored to leave the hospital. The Xu couple had no choice but to complete the discharging formalities for him and let him go home for recuperation.

As soon as she got off work, she headed to the Xu's house. Because of her absence, John refused to eat anything. She didn't return home until John fell asleep. It was past 12 o'clock every day when she arrived home. She went directly to bed after taking a shower.

After tolerating for a month, he was not happy at all. The quality of the "couple" life was badly affected. They had to replace a way to deal with it.

On Monday, when Sophia went to work, Lucas asked her to come to his office.

"What do you want, boss?" She smiled and looked like a crescent moon.

He leaned against the chair and looked serious, which made him look like a business man. "Sophia, I got a chance to practice yourself. Would you like to have a try?"

"Yes, of course!" She was delighted and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

"Don't promise me so soon. You can see it first." He handed a pile of documents on the table to her.

She opened it and was startled, "bri

"This is the new armored high-grade office building that has been newly developed by MH Real Estate Company. I want you to be the executive director of the company." Lucas said slowly. "Executive director?" She was shocked. This position was not low!

"Are you confident?" He looked at her, with his eyes flickering.

"No," she replied honestly in her heart! But after she spoke out, she began to be polite, "I have never engaged in real estate industry, why do you suddenly give me such a big title? I'm afraid it's difficult to convince the public."

"Aren't you always studying real estate development and business?" He smiled.

"How do you know?" She was stunned. This guy really had magic power! She was indeed determined to invest in the real estate industry, in order to defeat Sam who had abandoned her and her mother. "You are my wife. Of course I should pay attention to your affairs." He threw up his hands and said, "now we can just test what you have learned."

"Practice is different from reality. There is a huge difference between theory and practice." She pouted.

"Don't worry. I will teach you." He reassured her.

She believed that she could trust Lucas as long as he taught her by himself?
