Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Actually, Joseph did not sleep well.

He had gone through so much that he had trouble falling asleep.

After Nicole left, Joseph woke up and subconsciously got up. He was stunned as he saw Lucas sitting beside the bed.

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm afraid that you'll fall asleep."

Lucas whispered, then stood up and poured a glass of water for Joseph.

Joseph was surprised.

He was used to do such little things before, and Lucas never did it. It was a bit awkward to see Lucas being so gentle.

"Take it!"

When Lucas saw Joseph looking at him blankly, he thought that Joseph was beaten dumb.

Joseph took the glass and smiled.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing. I just feel that it's good to have you at home."

Lucas was speechless.

He walked to the door and opened it to take a look. Nicole and the others were talking downstairs. No one looked upstairs. He closed the door and locked it. Then, he came back to sit beside Joseph.

Joseph was puzzled.

"What are you doing?"

"I want to tell you something."

Lucas' mysterious expression aroused Joseph's curiosity.

"What?"

Lucas looked at him as if considering whether to tell him or not. Joseph got impatient as he waited.

"What exactly are you going to say?"

"Let's run away from home."

Joseph was startled.

"Running away from home? Are you serious?"

"Keep your voice down!"

Lucas hurriedly covered Joseph's mouth and whispered, "Do you still want to stay here? Look at your injuries. Grandma and my daddy are protecting you now, but Uncle Vincent is your father. If he wants to take you away, what can we do? I can't stop him, right? But you'll suffer again if you go with him."

Joseph frowned.

"But he's my daddy. I have to listen to him. Besides, he did everything for my own sake. People said that Daddy beats me because he is too concerned about my future."

"Nonsense! We can teach ourselves! Remember the coach? We did a good job without him, didn't we? Your daddy is crazy. If you stay with him, you'll be beaten to death. And I will lose my only brother."

Joseph didn't reply.

To be honest, he didn't want to go back to the base with Vincent.
