Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 711

Zama looked up and saw Lucas standing in front of her with a gentle look on his face.

"Stop crying. You're an adult, so you should be tough. Just set an example for me."

"Lucas!"

Blair wanted to pull Lucas back, but was stopped by him.

"Uncle Blair, she won't hurt me."

"How do you know? She's a vicious woman. You can't get close to her. If something happens to you, how should I explain it to your mother? Come over!"

Lucas was still a child, so he might be fooled by Zama. However, Blair was cautious.

Lucas shook his head with a smile and looked at Zama with open arms, "Didn't you want to hug me?"

Hearing this, Zama was excited.

She stepped up and tightly held Lucas in her arms.

"Thank you, Lucas. Thank you."

She had never felt that a hug could be so warm and touching.

In the meantime, Blair kept a worried eye on her every move.

Lucas gently patted Zama's back and whispered, "Thank you for your offer to save my mommy and daddy. Although I decided not to forgive you for those bad things that you've done before, I'm grateful to you for having cured my parents. It's because of you that I can have a happy family. My teacher has said that people are not infallible. As long as one truly repents and corrects his mistake, he is still a good child. So I can forgive you for what you've done to me, but you can't hurt my family anymore."

"Alright!"

Zama cried bitterly, almost out of breath.

Even a four-year-old child knew that one should correct his mistakes. Why did she come around to this in her old age?

How could she be less mature than a child?

She clasped Lucas in her arms.

This was her grandson!

If she hadn't taken her revenge crazily, she could have been able to spend quality time with her grandson now.

However, she destroyed all of this. She ruined her chance to have happiness.

Lucas uttered when he saw that Zama was crying pathetically.

"Mommy said you suffered from a disease, a serious one. I don't know if you can cure yourself, but I want you to stop hurting my parents. My mommy suffered a lot in this life, so I want you to be nice to her. Just as the saying goes, women shouldn't make things difficult for women."

Zama hastily nodded.

She didn't want to let go of Lucas, not in the slightest.

This was the first time she thought that Lucas was so sensible and cute. She really felt sorry for him.

If it wasn't for her, he could have had a wonderful childhood and a happy family. But she caused her grandchildren to go through a hard time.

She really cherished this moment and hoped that time could stop here. However, she knew this was her extravagant hope.

She finally released him.

Lucas reached out and gently dried her tears.

His little hands were so soft and warm.

Zama's heart completely melted.

'Why didn't I cherish all of this before?'

"I have to go. Mommy is waiting for me outside."

Though reluctant, Zama had to let him go, for she had no reason to keep him.

"Take it. It will be useful when you grow up."

Zama took out a ring and handed it to Lucas.

"What is this?"

"A small gift for you. I know that you don't treat me as your grandmother, which I deserve. I'm really not qualified as your grandmother. But now my life is almost over. I want to leave something for you. Zoe is weak, you, as her brother, should protect her well."

"Thank you."

Lucas put the ring carved in ancient patterns into his pocket and then walked out with Blair.

"Lucas!"

Zama looked at his back and couldn't help but shout.

Lucas turned around and looked at the crying old woman, saying with a smile, "Grandma, goodbye."

Zama was shocked.

What did he call her?

What did Lucas call her just now?

Grandma?

She had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

She finally heard Lucas call her grandmother.

Zama was in seventh heaven now. She wanted to hear Lucas call her grandma again, but he already walked out of the reception room.

She sat on the chair and wept bitterly with her face buried in her hands.

After Lucas came out, Blair said coldly, "Lucas, how dared you take her gift? Aren't you afraid that she will hurt you?"

"No."

Lucas said with a smile, "Eyes won't lie. I can sense that she really likes me. Uncle Blair, don't tell my mom that she gave me a gift and I called her grandma."

"You actually dared to lie to your mommy now?"

Blair flicked Lucas’ head with his finger.

Lucas scratched his head and said, "I just don't want her to worry about me, because she doesn't trust Grandma Zama."

Blair felt that Lucas was an unusual boy.

"Don't you hate her for what she did?"

"Of course I do. But she saved mommy and Samuel. It means that she is chastened. We should give her a chance to turn over a new leaf."

Blair was surprised.

Adults were complicated and their feelings would be influenced by many factors, while children were demonstrative and showed directly whether they loved or hated you.

Kids were simple.
