'Mom and Corinne wouldn't have left home and suffered such a hard life if it hadn't been for those crappy things Dad did back then!' thought Lucas to himself.

Lucas comforted his grandparents, but his tone was a tad sarcastic when he said, "Dad has been living well for the past few years, so it makes no sense he'll suddenly want to take his life. So don't worry. I promise I'll get him home safely."

After saying this, Lucas turned to thank the two police officers, then walked upstairs calmly.

Beatrice and Cedric looked at each other with shame in their eyes when they saw such indifference in Lucas' attitude.

The two of them drove away Lucas' mother years ago, and although Lucas never said anything about it, they knew he never forgave them for that.
