Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 487

Nicole was reading news on computer in her bedroom. She frowned when she heard someone knocking on the door.

"Who is it?"

"Mommy, go to the study. Hurry up! Daddy and Uncle are fighting."

Joseph started crying as he heard Nicole's voice.

Hearing what he said, Nicole threw back the covers and got out of the bed. She wrapped a coat around her shoulders and opened the door.

"Joseph? What happened?"

She was puzzled to see Joseph covered in dirt. Nicole noticed the grazes on his palm. She couldn't help but say worriedly, "Come on in. Let me give you some ointment."

"Forget about it. Mommy, go to the study now. Daddy and Uncle are fighting."

Nicole didn't know when Joseph started to call Samuel Uncle.

She was somewhat stunned, but then Nicole felt it was right.

She replied, "Alright. Don't cry. Mommy will go there now."

Nicole rushed to the study room with Joseph.

She could hear the crackling noise, but Nicole could not open the door. It seemed that it had been locked from inside.

"What's going on?"

Lucas came out of the bathroom after shower. He asked as he saw Joseph crying and Nicole knocking on the door of the study.

Nicole hurriedly said, "Lucas, go find Grandma and get the key to the study."

"Well... Alright!"

Lucas’ hair wasn’t dry yet, but he directly ran to the greenhouse.

"Grandma, Mommy asked me to take the key to the study."

Mrs. Green was watering the flowers. She was stunned by what Joseph said.

"What does she want?"

"The study room’s key. I don't know what's going on. Mommy can't open the door. And Joseph is crying outside the study."

Lucas told Mrs. Green what he saw.

Mrs. Green paused and then gave the key to Lucas.

"Give it to your mommy now. Be quick. I'll be right there."

Lucas took the key and ran away.

Mrs. Green was not quick in walking, so she could only follow behind slowly.

When Nicole got the key, she said to Lucas, "Stay here with Joseph. Don't come in."

"Okay!"

Lucas replied, but Joseph cried and said, "Mommy, I want to go into the room."

"Listen, Mommy can handle it. Just stay here!"

Nicole stroked his head and asked Lucas to pull Joseph aside.

It seemed that Lucas had touched Joseph's bruises by accident. Joseph couldn't help but cry out in pain.

"What's wrong?"

Lucas rolled up his sleeve.

"Who beat you? Tell me. I must kill him!"

Lucas got furious as he saw the bruises. Nicole was startled by his voice.

She turned around and glanced at Joseph. And her expression suddenly altered.

However, Joseph quickly put down his sleeve and said, "I'm fine. Mommy, just get into the study. Hurry up."

Seeing Joseph's anxious expression, Nicole kind of knew what had happened.

She understood why they fought.

"Lucas, take Joseph to my room."

"I'm not leaving. Mommy, I want to stay here."

Joseph was a stubborn child. He would not leave.

Lucas pouted angrily, wishing he could find someone to vent his anger.

Although Joseph was not his natural brother, he was the first friend that Joseph had after he came to the Green's. Lucas remembered what Joseph called him then.

The boy called him boss.

And what did the boss do?

Joseph was hurt under his nose.

Lucas' eyes blazed with fury as he thought of it.

Joseph looked so worried that Nicole could only ignore Lucas and directly opened the door.

Something flew out as soon as the door was opened. It directly passed by Nicole's ear, went through the corridor and fell into the living room downstairs. Finally, it smashed on the floor beside Mrs. Green's foot.

It was a tray for washing writing brushes.

The tray had a long history.

And it had been kept in the study.

Mrs. Green's face clouded over with anger.

Nicole didn't say anything and hurriedly walked into the study.

Samuel and Vincent were still fighting.

"Stop it! You are grown-ups! Don't scare the kids!"

Nicole had never seen Samuel and Vincent fight.

What happened to the brothers?
