Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1813

"What?"

Joseph struggled to avoid Lucas's gaze. Although he kept strong and calm, the frequency with which he drank water nevertheless made it clear that he was a little nervous.

Lucas walked over step by step, looked at Joseph, and took the cup from his hand. He looked Joseph straight in the eye and asked, "Why are you doing this? Do you know the man who came to steal the kidney?"

"Yes."

Joseph finally looked at Lucas.

There was regret and distress in his eyes, but he never avoided him again.

"Why? Give me a reason."

Lucas didn't think Joseph would be a terrorist, much less help an outsider to harm his own family.

He was his brother. Joseph had done a lot of things over the years for his younger siblings, and even for him. He didn’t talk about it but Lucas knew all about it.

One could not be so perfect in disguise, nor could one hide for so many years. Joseph was a member of the Green Family and his affection for them was clear for all to see. If anyone had said that Joseph had colluded with the terrorists, he would not have believed them. But at this moment, he desperately needed a reason.

Joseph pushed his glasses up his nose and whispered, "I owe her my life, and I have to repay that favor. I know I shouldn't involve you and Yasmeen in my own affairs, but she begged me, and I couldn't help it."

Lucas said nothing more. He placed the glass on the table and got up to leave.

Joseph suddenly became a little uneasy.

"Lucas, you can scold me, or hit me. What do you mean by being so quiet?"

"It means nothing. I'm going to check on Yasmeen."

Lucas didn't look back or even turn around, but just walked out. But if one looked closely, he could see Lucas's body trembling slightly.

Joseph wanted to chase him out, but when he got up, he found that he had neither the position nor the face to do so.

Lucas left Joseph's office and leaned against the wall in the corridor. He suddenly felt that his strength had been drained from his body. If he hadn't held on so strongly just now, he might well have collapsed in front of Joseph.

The result was too much for him to accept or face.

What should he say if he went to see Yasmeen now?

Was he going to tell her that the kidney had been stolen by someone and that his elder brother was an accomplice?

It was Lucas's decision to operate on Yasmeen, to buy a kidney from the black market, and to restore Yasmeen to her former self. He had done his best to plan everything, but he never expected this result.

Lucas's mind was in turmoil, and he had a headache. He slid into a chair with his eyes staring in one direction, while a long hair was cupped in his hand.

It had been found on Joseph's shoulder and he had brought it out with him.

Perhaps he would be able to confirm what that person was after testing this hair. But he was a little scared.

Lucas didn't know what he was afraid of, but the feeling made him apprehensive and uneasy.

Lucas sat outside for a long time before regaining his strength. He took the hair and went to his room.

He actually had a lot of equipment here because of his work.

Lucas experimented for a while and the DNA of the hair came out. He hacked into the computer again to find the corresponding DNA and froze when he saw the person's information.

She was actually Nichole Flores, the daughter of Carlos Flores.

Lucas couldn't help but think of the time before when he had mistakenly injured the hostage.

His gun had been tampered with, and he and Nichole's brother, Ben, were in the same team.

Before, Lucas didn't want to suspect his friend. After all, they had lived and eaten together for so many years, even shared life and death together, and were friends who were ready to die for each other and could give their backs to each other when they went to war. How could such a thing happen?

But now that Nichole had come to steal the kidney, and Lucas had to think more about it.
