Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1551

“What’s that supposed to mean? Who are you going to punish?”

Morty came up.

Samuel frowned and grunted, “That’s my son, not yours! Even if he were, make him behave himself! Ask him what he did!”

Ignoring Samuel’s wrath, Morty went straight forward to ask Lucas, “Tell me what happened.”

Morty said that calmly, but Lucas still kept his mouth shut. He went towards the mansion. Thinking that this mansion actually belonged to Yasmeen’s father, he stopped at the gate. He turned around and asked Nicole, “Can I find another place to be grounded?”

Nicole realized that she came here in order to pick up his son and then this got in the way.

“Go and wait in the car. I have something to say to Uncle Morty.”

Lucas did what she said.

Michele was upset seeing him like that.

“Daddy, the thing is...”

Michele explained what happened.

Morty kept frowning. He looked at Nicole and Samuel and asked, “You called Lucas a jerk?!”

“So what? You want us to praise him for what he’s done?”

Samuel was still mad thinking about what he had done to Yasmeen and Lucas didn’t even admit he was wrong. Samuel hit her by mistake and now they had to see William in person.

Morty glanced at Nicole, “And Mrs. Green thinks so?”

Nicole didn’t answer but she seemed to agree with her husband that Lucas was wrong.

Morty laughed suddenly, “You guys are so busy putting your hands on each other that you have degenerate into cavemen, aren’t you?”

That was pretty harsh.

Even though he was smiling, Nicole, Samuel and Michele could all sense his anger.

Samuel quickly stepped in front of Nicole.

“If you are mad, you can just yell at me. Leave my wife alone. I know you like Lucas but he is our son. We have the right to teach him what is right and what is wrong.”

“You have the right to teach him a lesson.”

Morty’s chest started to feel tight.

He lit a cigarette. Even though Nicole hated the smell of smoke, Samuel didn’t do anything to Morty and just said in a cold tone, “Better keep your distance before you do that. You’ve got a wife and a kid and you’re still smoking? You’re a dad now!”

Morty was stunned and automatically turned to Michele.

Michele said hastily, “It’s okay, daddy, I wouldn’t mind.”

She looked up at him and giggled happily. He instantly felt something in his heart.

He put out the cigarette and apologized, “My mistake. Michele, you’re still too young and second-hand smoking is bad for you. I won’t smoke in front of you and your mommy again.”

His words made Michele’s eyes wet.

Indeed, he treated her like she was the most precious thing in the world, unlike Dylan.

Morty asked, “You think Lucas is a genius and low-maintenance so you can treat him like an adult now?”

“What do you mean?”

Hearing that, Samuel was still frowning. But Nicole finally saw what the reason was.

She suddenly realized that Lucas was only 7 years old, not 17.

If he did that when he was 17, then of course he would be a jerk. But now he was just a 7-year-old child and he only did things out of instincts.

When Yasmeen and Lucas first met, things didn’t go pretty well.

Lucas was forced to fight her and Yasmeen even saw him naked. No child would bear such kind of things. It was reasonable that he held grudges. Now they met again and Michele was in such a hurry that Lucas thought she came for a fight. It was completely normal for him to protect Michele and said mean things to Yasmeen.

But what did Nicole and Samuel do?

They saw this incident from the perspective of adults. It was truly unfair to Lucas.

Lucas never caused any trouble for them before and they subconsciously thought Lucas was mature enough to handle anything, including this situation.

Nicole thought of the look on Lucas’s face and hurried to the car.

“Nicole.”

Samuel was a little surprised. Morty chuckled and said, “Mrs. Green seems much smarter than you.”

“Get lost.”

After that, Samuel followed her.

Lucas was sitting in the car alone, looking depressed.

When Nicole opened the car door, he quickly glanced and then looked away.
