Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 715

"Lucas!"

Nicole shouted aloud.

Lucas turned around and saw Nicole running towards him quickly, feeling a little puzzled.

"Mommy, slow down, or you'll fall."

Lucas hurried to walk up to her.

Nicole pulled Lucas behind her and vigilantly looked at the jeep in front of her. "Who are you? What are you doing here?" she asked.

It was a young man. Seeing how Nicole protected Lucas, he was confused and then explained hastily, "Don't mistake it, I'm just here to take a look."

"What do you want to look at? It is already a deserted old house. What's there to see?"

Nicole didn't relax her vigilance.

The man smiled apologetically and said, "I know that, but I just want to come back and have a look at it. I heard from my parents as a kid that this was their hometown. Now that so many years have passed, I want to come back and see what the place where my parents grew up is like."

"Your parents?"

Nicole was stunned for a moment.

Wasn't it that everyone here died in that accident?

Why would anyone survive?

"Yes. My parents left the town at the age of eighteen and joined the army. When they considered coming back again, this place no longer exists."

The man got out of the car and stood on the land with a sad expression.

Only then did Nicole react.

It seemed that there were still people from that town alive.

"Do you remember your grandfather's name?"

"His name is Hugh Harper."

Hearing this, Nicole paused.

While going through the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall, she did see the name.

"We've bought this place and it'll be a private land. Since you're here, go and take a look. My husband is cleaning up the ancestral hall. He's going to rebuild it."

"Rebuild it?"

The man was a little surprised, but quickly became happy.

"Madam, my name is Trevin Harper. Can I bring back my parents' memorial tablets and set them here? Don't worry, I'll try my best to pay you no matter how much it costs. After all, this is my parents' hometown, and I want them to rest in the place they belong to."

Trevin looked at Nicole sincerely.

Nicole thought for a while and said to him, "Go ask my husband. His mother is also from this town. She has been away for many years and now has passed away. My husband intends to help her return to her hometown."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Trevin happily followed Nicole and Lucas to the ancestral hall.

Along the way, Nicole held Lucas' hand tightly, seeming to fear that he would get lost.

Lucas felt Nicole's tension and followed her quietly.

After arriving at the ancestral hall, Samuel was still cleaning up.

Trevin saw that the ancestral hall had collapsed, but all the tablets were neatly placed aside. His eyes went moist.

"Samuel, I have something to tell you."

Nicole repeated what Trevin said to her.

Samuel looked at him and whispered, "If you're a member of the Harper family, hurry up and work."

"Huh? Well, okay."

Trevin did not react at first, but he quickly started the repair work after realizing what Samuel meant.

Seeing that Samuel was full of energy, Nicole did not want to stop him and then brought Lucas back to the restaurant.

Nicole wondered why Blair would follow them here.

"Why are you here?"

"Why am I here? Are you and Samuel trying to give me a hard time? You both need to get acupuncture treatment, but you actually left without my permission. So you don't want to live, do you? I'm just asking for trouble, leaving my wife and child to look for you."

Blair said angrily.

Nicole said embarrassedly, "You also know about Samuel. Besides, he can't get past what happened to Zama. He won't be happy unless he clears everything up."

"But you can't disregard your lives. Let me tell you, I won't come if it's someone else. Gabrielle is pregnant, so I can't let anything happen to her."

"What? You said Gabrielle is pregnant? But isn't it that she can't..."

Nicole interrupted him.

Blair waved his hand carelessly and said, "I know what you want to say. Gabrielle can't bear children because of me. I also thought that I won't have a child in this lifetime. However, God have mercy on me. Plus the luck Hedy brought to us, this morning the test results showed that Gabrielle is pregnant. So you and Samuel had better do what I tell you and get cured as soon as possible. I need to go back to keep my wife company."

Blair said with a happy smile on his face.

Nicole was also happy for them.

Lucas smiled and said, "Is Hedy going to have a baby brother or sister?"

"Yes."

"Mommy, when are you going to give Zoe and me a little brother or sister?"

Lucas' question left Nicole at a loss for words.

Could she have another child in her life?

This reminded Nicole of Zama. Everything was over, but she did not know how to face her.

"You already have a sister. That's enough."

"But I still want a younger brother! That would be better."

Hearing this, Nicole felt a little sad.

Blair hurried to say, "Alright, you can't be that greedy! After Auntie Gabrielle has a baby, you have to help us take care of it, okay?"

"Absolutely!"

Lucas looked happy.

Nicole looked at Blair gratefully, and then began to get acupuncture treatment.

Samuel and Trevin had been working for a while. They felt tired and sat together for a rest.

"Why do you want to go back to the town?"
