Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 159

“This is an order for the entire Seapolis City. No matter what the price we have to pay, we must find Zama!”

Once Zama was found, they would be able to find out where Lucas was at and maybe even Nicole as well.

Everything seemed to be related to Zama.

It was very likely that Zama was the one who caused Petty to disappear, protected Riley well, and caused Lucas to disappear.

Samuel felt terrified.

She was just an old servant, yet she had such a powerful network, couldn't be found when the three big families searched together, and was able to transport people right under their watch.

Was it because he was too incompetent or because Zama was too powerful?

Jason and Tim also heard the news and rushed to the Green Family.

This time, Samuel didn't hide anything from them and told them about Zama.

Jason's face was cold but didn't say anything. He turned around and went to search. However, Tim grabbed Samuel by the collar. “If anything happens to her, you'll have to deal with me.”

“If something really happened to her, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.”

Samuel said coldly.

Tim let go of him, turned around and left.

While everyone went crazy looking for Zama, Lucas and Joseph were locked in a small room. Joseph called out to Lucas in sniffles and sobs. “Boss, you can't die. What am I going to do if you die?”

“Shut up!”

Lucas had a headache because of Joseph making a racket. He spoke weakly.

Seeing that he was awake, Joseph immediately continued in a happy tone. “Boss, are you awake? Are you not going to die?”

“Do you want me to die that badly?”

Lucas moved his shoulders and felt that he didn't have any strength at all. It seemed that the anesthetic wasn't out of his system yet.

He looked at the hole on his wrist that was left by the needle. Excessive blood loss made him appear particularly weak.

“Boss, would you like to drink water? I'll get you some water to drink.”

Joseph ran out quickly, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to Lucas.

He wasn't big, so it was difficult for him to support Lucas, but he didn’t give up.

Water from the cup spilled on the back of Joseph's hand, but he didn't care at all.

Seeing what Joseph was doing, Lucas whispered. “Find a straw. It'll be more convenient.”

“Okay.”

Joseph followed Lucas’ instruction and ran to find a straw.

Fortunately, there were straws in the room.

Joseph brought the straw over, put it in the cup, and handed the cup to Lucas.

Lucas was really hungry that he felt like he was seeing stars. He didn't know if it was because of excessive blood loss or because of hunger.

He drank some water and felt better.

“Do you want something to eat? I've hid something for you here.” Joseph asked quickly.

After speaking, he took out a hamburger from his sleeve and handed it to Lucas.

Lucas was really hungry.

He grabbed it and took a big bite. From the corner of his eye, he saw Joseph salivating, obviously also very hungry.

Lucas paused, split the burger, and gave it half to Joseph.

“Here!”

“I'm not eating! You have lost so much blood, so your body must be very weak. I’m quite fat, so it’s okay. Besides, my mommy will prepare food for

me!”

Joseph shut up immediately after speaking.

“Boss, I'm sorry.”

He lowered his head and was about to cry.

Lucas knew that Joseph was apologizing for what Riley did to him, but he didn't blame Joseph.

“It has nothing to do with you. Why are you apologizing? Hurry up and eat. If you have enough strength to run out after eating, then run out as soon as possible. Once you are out, call the old man and ask him to save me. This is what you should do if you want to be kind to me.”

Lucas’ words made Joseph hesitate.

“Can I really?”

“Of course, you are her son, so she won't do anything to you. If you find the chance to escape, I will be saved.”

Lucas smiled and handed half of the burger to Joseph.

Joseph took it, but did not eat, and spoke sadly. “Why do you think my mommy is so bad? How could she do that to you? Auntie is so kind to me, why can't she treat you like auntie?”

“Not everyone is as kind as my mommy.”

When Lucas talked about Nicole, tears flickered in his eyes.

“Joseph.”

“Yes?”

“I miss my mommy.”

Lucas leaned on Joseph's shoulder. Although Joseph's shoulders were still narrow and small, Lucas didn't feel lonely anymore.

Compared to the last time he was kidnapped, he had Joseph by his side this time, so he had a little more courage.

Joseph's tears already rolled down.

“I miss auntie too. I don't want mommy anymore, she's bad! She's a bad woman!”
