Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 427

Lucas frowned slightly.

Nicole finally sleeps peacefully. He didn't want Mommy to be woken up by her phone.

He hurriedly picked up the phone and wanted to mute it, but he recognized the number at once. It was from the Don family.

Lucas certainly knew about the Don family. Seeing they were still harassing Mommy, Lucas’ brow furrowed even deeper.

He took the phone and crept to the bathroom. Then, he answered it and Viola's voice came from the other side immediately,

"Nicole. If you don't want your daughter to die, you'd better listen to me. I'll wait for you in Nancy Park at 1030 in the morning. Do not bring anyone with you. You must come alone. If you're late, I can't guarantee what will happen to your daughter."

After saying that, Viola hung up the phone.

Lucas’ expression immediately changed.

Zoe was in Viola's hands?

How could that be?

He quickly opened the door, only to find that it was locked from the inside.

Lucas did not have the habit of locking the door. Looking at Nicole who was still asleep on the bed, he couldn't help but ponder.

Last time, Samuel came to sleep with him, and now Mommy also came to sleep with him. Could it be that they were having some kind of spat?

Although Lucas was young, he was smart.

He opened the door and saw that Samuel looked a little haggard and tossed on the sofa in the living room. He thought his guess was correct.

They were really having a spat!

...

Lucas sighed and walked up to Samuel. He looked him up and down. The disdainful gaze annoyed Samuel a lot.

"I'm in a bad mood right now. You'd better leave me alone."

Samuel's voice was hoarse. It was obvious that he had not slept well all night. His beard had also grown, but he didn't have the mood to take care of himself.

Lucas ignored Samuel's irritability and sat down beside him.

"Did you quarrel with Mommy?"

"Nonsense! Will I quarrel with your mommy?"

Samuel insisted stubbornly.

However, Lucas smiled and said, "Really?"

"No! Go and mind your own business!"

Samuel felt that he did not have any authority in front of this son. This brat was not afraid of him at all. He missed the way Joseph called him daddy back then. He still had the authority and satisfaction of being a daddy.

Seeing Samuel acting like this, Lucas coughed and said, "Alright, I'll go. But if Mommy ignores you later, don't blame me for not helping you."

As he spoke, he wanted to get up, but was grabbed by Samuel.

"Is your mommy awake?"

He was somewhat nervous.

"Not yet. But she'll wake up eventually, won't she?"

Hearing what Lucas said, Samuel frowned tightly.

Yeah, she would wake up.

After Nicole had an entire night to think about it, he had no idea what she would do to him.

"Did your mommy say anything to you last night?"

"What do you want to ask me?"

Lucas looked at him with slanted eyes, similar to his. Now they were shining with wisdom.

"Forget it. You don't understand."

Samuel let go of Lucas and became even more irritated.

Seeing him like this, Lucas whispered, "I don't understand why you adults will quarrel with each other, but Mommy treats you well. You must have done something to make her unhappy, right? It has something to do with Zoe?"

"What can you possibly know? You are just a kid."

Samuel sighed. He felt his IQ had declined, talking about it to a kid this age. But he had no one to talk to. All of his annoyance stuck in his heart.

"There's a lot that I don't know. But I do know that someone is threatening Mommy and using Zoe as a bait. So, Samuel, where did you take Zoe?"

Hearing Lucas’ words, Samuel suddenly paused.

"What did you say?"

"Just listen."

Lucas already recorded the call. Now he replayed it to Samuel, whose brow furrowed even deeper.

He immediately called Jacob.

"Where's Zoe?"

"Miss Zoe is still resting. What's wrong?"

Jacob was dumbfounded by Samuel's question. He looked at Zoe who was still sleeping beside him and couldn't help but ask.

"Take a picture for me. No! Bring Zoe over directly!"

Samuel started to become uneasy.

Hearing Samuel's words, Jacob hurriedly woke Zoe up.

"What's the matter?"

Zoe rubbed her big sleepy eyes and yawned as she looked at Jacob.

Jacob smiled and said, "Zoe, be good. Shall we go find Mommy and Daddy?"

"But I haven't eaten breakfast yet. You promised to take me to eat pineapple buns this morning."

Zoe did not know how long she had worried Nicole, nor did she know how much trouble she had caused. Now, her mind was full of food.

Jacob smiled and said, "Alright, I'll buy you pineapple buns when I see Daddy and Mommy, okay? Mommy misses you now."

"Alright, but we need to make a pinky swear so that you can’t' lie to me!"

In order to eat the food she liked, Zoe was really serious.

Jacob looked at Zoe's extended pinky and couldn't help but laugh. If only he had such a daughter.
