Casting a glance at her, Lucas was furious. He turned to her and smiled, "I have to deal with something. Be good at home."
Sophia thought it was for business and nodded.
Lucas rushed to Chuck's villa at a bullet speed. He had an urge to kill him.
Upon seeing Lucas, Chuck was shocked. This was the first time that Lucas had come to visit his family in the past ten years. Ellie happened to come over to see Chuck. She ran to him and took his arm. "Lucas, are you here for my brother?" She thought that Lucas wanted to make up with Chuck, which made her extremely happy.
"Ellie, I have something to talk with Chuck." Caressing her head, Lucas said, "Good girl, go to the room first."
Ellie nodded and went away obediently. She opened the door of the room and peeped into it.
Chuck lit a cigarette and asked, "Why are you here?"
Lucas had no patience to make small talks.
"You have been to these cities recently. Holy Maurice, Provence, Los Angeles. What a coincidence! You have the same date with Sophia and I in honeymoon?"
"What? Is it necessary for me to tell you where I am going? " Chuck puffed a smoke at his face.
Lucas grabbed him by the collar. The cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth fell to the ground, crunching. He stubbed it out and said, "You'd better tell me what you want to do with us?"
"Why should I tell you?" Chuck pushed away him and pulled his collar so as to cover the red birthmark on his neck. Normally, he preferred to use the collar instead of showing this weakness to others! I'm not interested in following you! " He smoothed his clothes which had been messed up by him. At this time, a piece of white gauze was exposed from his sleeve. At the sharp sight of it, Lucas shouted.
"What's wrong with your arm?"
"It's none of your business!" With a groan, Lucas pulled up his sleeves.
There was a rage in Lucas's eyes. He hit Chuck with his fist, and the latter was knocked to the ground. Lucas rushed to him again, pulled him up and slammed him against the wall. "Chuck, if you have balls, take it out on me. Sophia is innocent. If you dare hurt her one more time, I will kill you!"
Chuck spat a mouthful of blood on the ground, "Are you here to fight with me? Fine, I'll be there!" He clenched his fists and tried to hit Lucas. But the latter dodged, Chuck rushed to him again. The latter was against the table. " You are never my opponent in fighting!"
Ellie couldn't wait any longer and ran out of the room. "Lucas, Chuck, stop fighting. Let's find out the truth first. I believe that Chuck won't do such a thing."
Then Lucas let go of Chuck, but Chuck was not convinced. He still wanted to fight back, but was hugged by Ellie. "Brother, do you know that when Lucas and Sophia were on their honeymoon, someone wanted to hurt Sophia?"
Chuck sneered, "Then let's ask him whether he has owed any love affair or not."
"Brother, it's not the time for you to be angry. Why are these places you are going to are same as their honeymoon places?" Ellie let go of him and poured cold water for Lucas and Chuck to calm them down.
Chuck wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth and took a sip of water. "I don't know where they are going. I just take Melody there for fun. She told me where she wanted to go, so I took her there."
"So, it's Melody who wants to go these places?" Ellie was shocked. "Hasn't she always been mad?"
"She's not crazy. Sometimes she is a little sober. She talks to me and smiles to me." A sense of happiness spread over Chuck's face.
"How did your arm get hurt?" Lucas asked, he hoped it had nothing to do with Chuck.
