Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1005

Lucas suddenly realized a problem.

Why was Mommy's belly flat now?

His heart skipped a beat.

He had kept chatting and joking with Mommy just now and actually forgot such an important thing that the baby should be big enough to make Mommy's belly look conspicuous now.

But Mommy's belly was flat, and she didn't seem to be pregnant at all. Was there anything wrong with the baby during his absence?

Lucas went back to search for Mommy's information on the Internet again but couldn't find anything valuable.

Nicole's miscarriage did not cause any disturbance on the Internet, let alone leave any trace.

Lucas frowned and went to Mark's office.

"I want a vacation."

Mark was slightly stunned.

"I've asked the guards to escort your mom away. But what the hell do you want a vacation in such an important period during which your team's research project is about to get approved? You, as the leader of the team, actually quit now? Do you know the consequence?"

"I quit! I am not the only officer in the army, but I am the only son of Mommy. How can I stay in the army and ignore her? What do you want her to do? Samuel should be in the police station now, right? If he can't come out, the other people may be against her. If anything happens to her, who can bear the responsibility? Grandpa Mark, can you?"

Although Lucas was young, he still spoke with confidence.

Mark frowned slightly.

"I remember that the system of the army is a separate system. Did you hack the system again and investigate some information?"

Lucas did not answer, seeming to admit.

Mark sighed and softened his tone.

"Lucas, I know you're worried about your mom, and I'm worried, too. She's not just your mom, but also my niece. But you have to believe me, and we will solve the problems properly. Don't worry. Now that you are no longer a child, you are a military officer and you have to shoulder the responsibility. Since you have chosen to be a military officer, you should know that the national interest outweighs everything else. Most of the time, you should give up some interests of your small family for the interests of the rest in the country. Jason and your great-grandfather will also come to help your mom. Besides, do you think your daddy is that useless? He is the man who is framed by someone and obediently goes to the police station for investigation? When does he become such a useless man?"

More concerns would lead to more troubles. Lucas was too anxious to think about the thing rationally under such a circumstance.

Now that he heard what Mark said, he was stunned.

Although Samuel had failed to protect Mommy a few times, it was still the first time he had been so useless.

Lucas understood what Mark meant. Perhaps this was a trap set by Samuel, but he was still worried.

"Mommy..."

"Don't worry, your great-grandfather has arranged for someone to protect her. You won't be able to help even if you go back now. Not all bad people will commit high-tech crimes, so you, a high-tech talent, is unable to help with that, and even you may have an opposite effect. You'd better stay in the army and do your research."

Mark had clarified the matter so clearly now. If Lucas didn't know what to do, he would be sorry for his military uniform.

He lowered his eyes and did not say anything. He was thinking about whether he should continue to stay in the military region.

Nicole did not know that Lucas had a man-to-man conversation with Mark because of her. After she was sent out by the guards, she was directly sent back in a military vehicle.

On the way, Nicole received a phone call from Lillian.

"Nicole, are you coming back for dinner tonight?"

Nicole paused slightly and asked, "Ms. Lillian, are you going to make me something delicious?"

"You are too polite. You have suffered so much, and I want to make some delicious food for you to show my concern. Have you eaten at your grandfather's house for lunch? I know that you keep a close tie with your grandfather, but no matter what, you are still a granddaughter. It's not good to disturb Mr. Shaw too often. I have cleaned up your room. Petty misses you, too. You know that she is pregnant now, and she'll be happier if you come back to keep her company. "

In such case, if Nicole still refused, Lillian would know her intention.

But Nicole snorted coldly in her heart.

What did Lillian mean that she was only a granddaughter?

Lillian wanted to estrange her grandfather and her?

"Alright, I want the Duck Soup."

Nicole ordered as usual.

"Okay, I'll go prepare in the afternoon."

With that, Lillian chatted with Nicole for a while before hanging up.

Nicole seemed to be sullen.

Others might have thought that they were intimate mother and daughter, but if it wasn't for Edwin's reminder and the matter related to Samuel, she wouldn't have suspected Lillian.

This woman was really good at disguising herself.

The guard didn't say anything. He was called by Mark to send Nicole back to the military compound.

Just as the car was about to arrive at Edwin's house, Nicole's phone suddenly rang again.

She lowered her head slightly and took a look. It was an unfamiliar telephone number.

Who was it?

After she returned to the Seapolis City, Nicole felt that there were more troubles. It seemed that the manipulators hiding in the shadows were really starting to stir.

She calmly got through the call.

"I'm Nicole. Who is it?"
