Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

"I mean, as an aunt, I haven't bought a gift for my nephew yet."

Melissa grabbed Lucas and covered his mouth, then pulling him out.

"I'll take him out and buy a present for him."

As Melissa was speaking, she dragged Lucas out.

Lucas looked a little impatient and he directly stopped her.

"Stop."

Before Melissa could understand what was going on, Lucas had pressed her onto the door frame by his catching and grappling skills.

"I forgot to tell you not to touch me."

Lucas directly pushed her away and then cast a look at Nicole, saying, "Excuse me, Mommy. I'm going to pack my things. Grandpa Mark is coming soon."

"Alright. Aren’t you going to eat anything?"

"Nope. Grandpa Mark said we would eat in the military area."

Lucas glanced at Dad Bush with a meaningful look in his eyes.

Dad Bush's face was red, but no one knew it was because of anger or embarrassment.

"Well, Nicole, have the clothes been prepared? Hurry and get Melissa changed. Mr. Seuss doesn’t have much time, so we can’t be late."

Dad Bush wished he could leave right this second, but he had to wait for Melissa.

Nicole did not know why Dad Bush went red, but she guessed it should have something to do with Melissa, judged from how she treated Lucas earlier.

However, Nicole could no longer care about so much now.

She handed the clothes in her hand to Melissa.

It was a plain and delicate dress, the latest style of this year.

Melissa once saw this dress in a magazine, but she couldn't afford it. Now receiving it from Nicole, she felt pleased but also a bit jealous.

If she had grown up in the Bush family from the beginning, perhaps all of these would have belonged to her now.

Melissa took the dress and went back to her room without thanking Nicole.

When there were only Dad Bush and Nicole in the living room, he felt extremely embarrassed.

"Nicole, I'm sorry to bother you. Melissa has a bad temper, since she grew up in an orphanage and was always bullied there. Please don't mind her bad temper."

"Of course not."

Nicole nodded in agreement.

She really wanted to give Dad Bush the painting, but she was afraid that it would hurt his feelings if she did it now.
