Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 104

Seeing that Luke clearly had the intention but finally decided to give up, Mrs. Chase could not help but poke him in the head. "It’s because you're too apprehensive and timid that you always miss your chance with Syd."

"How can you blame me for that?" Luke was a little aggrieved.

Mrs. Chase rolled her eyes at him. "Of course, you're to blame. If you had pursued Syd boldly back then, she might have accepted you."

"It's not that simple." Luke smiled bitterly. "Not all girls can accept a male best friend as their boyfriend."

"But if you've never asked, how would you know she can't accept it?" Mrs. Chase's lips tugged.

Luke choked for a moment.

Mrs. Chase waved her hand in annoyance. "Alright, alright. Hurry up and go out. You're standing in the way here. I get annoyed just looking at you."

"You were the one who told me to come." Luke widened his eyes at her.

Mrs. Chase ignored him and pushed him out of the kitchen.

"That boy is hopeless. He's afraid of everything! What a disappointment!" Mrs. Chase shook her head helplessly. "It seems like I’ll have to step in as a

mother and help create opportunities for him."

At that thought, Mrs. Chase took out her phone and dialed a number. "Hello, Mr. Clarke? I heard that you own an equestrian park?"

"Yes. What's the matter?" A bright, middle-aged male voice sounded over the phone.

Mrs. Chase smiled. "Lend it to me for the weekend. I'm going to matchmake my son with my future daughter-in-law."

She planned to trick Luke and Syd to go horseback riding for two days and then arrange for some small scares and excitement for the two.

Then, perhaps their relationship would grow by leaps and bounds.

However, Mr. Clarke smiled apologetically. "I'm afraid I can't do that. Someone has already made a reservation."

Unhappy, Mrs. Chase furrowed her brows.

Who could be so inconsiderate?

How could they act ahead of her?

"How many people are there?" Mrs. Chase asked.

Mr. Clarke chuckled and replied, "Two. It seems like they're also there to cultivate their feelings."

"Only two?" Mrs. Chase's eyes lit up. "How about this? You talk to them and tell them that you have two more people going there for the weekend. I promise that my son and future daughter-in-law won't disturb them."

"Um..." Mr. Clarke was put in a tough spot.

Mrs. Chase planted her hands on her hips. "Clarke, have you forgotten how I once helped you?"

Mr. Clarke's smile suddenly brightened up. "Okay, okay. I'll put down my ego and talk to them, okay?"

"That's more like it." Mrs. Chase hung up the phone satisfyingly and then called Sydney and Luke for dinner.

After dinner, Sydney touched her bulging stomach and sat down on the sofa to digest the food. "Aunty, your cooking is as good as ever."

Mrs. Chase's eyes curved as she smiled. "Since you think my cooking is good, come back with Luke more often in the future. I'll cook for you whenever."

"Okay." Sydney nodded. "I’ll take you up on your offer."

"Great! I love cooking, but Luke and Mr. Chase are always away, so there's no one to eat my cooking." Mrs. Chase complained.

Luke, who was peeling an apple, rolled his eyes when he heard her. "Mom, what nonsense are you saying? You're the one who keeps going on shopping trips and doesn't have time to cook. Why are you blaming Dad and me?"

"Be quiet, you little brat. Do you want a beating?" Mrs. Chase huffed and swung her fist.

Luke stopped peeling the apple and quickly jumped away.

While dodging, his mouth continued to mock, "Can't hit me. Can't hit me!"

Sydney watched the mother and son fighting and held her stomach in laughter.

The atmosphere in the living room was warm and happy.

Soon, it was dark.

Sydney looked at the time. Seeing that it was almost 8 p.m., she said her goodbyes.

Mrs. Chase wanted to make her stay the night, but Sydney refused.

"Luke, send Syd back." Mrs. Chase gave Luke a push.
