Lucus didn’t care about how Tanner and Eaton felt. He directly took Yasmeen’s hand and said, “Let’s
go to my room and have a look.”
“Okay.”
Although Yasmeen had sneaked into Lucus’s room many times before, and also allowed by Nicole, this
time Lucus personally invited her to his room. Yasmeen felt something different and also a little shy and
excited.
Lucus ignored Tanner and Eaton and took Yasmeen to go upstairs. While walking, he said to Nicole,
“Mom, my dad wants to take you out for a trip. If you see someone more handsome than my dad, you
can hook up. That’s okay. Your son will always support you.”
“Fuck off!”
Nicole laughed out and scolded him, but was somewhat relieved.
Now, Lucus went steady with Yasmeen. Joseph would also be engaged. She couldn’t imagine that she
and Samuel were getting old.
Since she made peace with Samuel, she felt time passed so quickly. It seems that her sons had grown
up and she and Samuel were getting old in the twinkling of an eye.
Nicole felt a little grieved, and also relieved.
When Samuel came out, he saw Nicole staring in the direction of the corridor with a vacant look, and
immediately understood Nicole’s mood.
He took a step forward and grabbed Nicole’s shoulders and then whispered, “Our children have their
own lives to live. It’s so good that they all have their lifelong companions now. In the future, we can set
our minds at rest. We can go to travel all over the world.”
“Okay.”
Nicole smiled to her heart’s content.
Samuel already had some white hair on his temples.
Nicole fondled his cheek and said in a low voice, “Lucus, I want to eat shrimp.”
Samuel originally thought Nicole would say something sentimental. He didn’t expect Nicole would talk
about the hustle and bustle of normal daily life with him at this moment.
“Okay, the kids are all back today. I’ll cook the shrimp for you.”
“I’ll give you a hand.”
Nicole was instantly very happy.
They went to the kitchen.
Joseph went back to his room and start to work on his scientific research project. He didn’t feel happy
about getting engaged at all.
After Lucus returned to the room with Yasmeen, he pressed her on the wall and closed the door with
his foot.
Yasmeen was a little flustered by what Lucus had done.
“What are you doing?”
This posture really made her feel very frightened, but she also kind of looked forward to what would
happen next.
Yasmeen blinked her eyes and the corners of her lips rose slightly.
“Lucus, you want to do that, right? Come on! I’m ready!”
Yasmeen lifted her chin and squared her shoulders. Her body was so close to Lucus’s.
That touch made Lucus lost in wild and fanciful thoughts.
His voice suddenly became a little low and deep.
“You’re so bold now. Are you going to try premarital sex?”
“What!”
Even if Yasmeen was bold and had strong psychological quality, she was frightened by Lucus’s words.
Seeing her like this, Lucus couldn’t help but say mockingly, “Are you afraid?”
Yasmeen really wanted to gain the initiative, but unfortunately, her physical strength and skills were not
as good as his.
That damped her spirits.
“What the hell do you want? If you don’t want to do it, just fuck off!”
Yasmeen tried to push Lucus away, but she didn’t manage it.
Lucus just looked at her without saying anything. It seemed that he was waiting for something.
“Did you forget something?”
“What do you mean?”
Yasmeen was a little confused, but then recalled that she had promised Lucus to tell him something
after she came back.
The ambiguous atmosphere immediately disappeared. On the contrary, there was a dignified and
repressive atmosphere over them, which made them even suffocate.
“Can you let go of me? I want to go to the bathroom.”
Yasmeen was a little nervous.
Lucus looked at her as if trying to figure out what she was thinking about. Finally, he let go of her and
said faintly, “If you don’t want or feel embarrassed to tell me, then just forget it. I just want you to be by
my side.”
Was that enough?
Yasmeen did not expect Lucus would say these to her.
Was it because she fell in love with him first?
So, she regarded everything about her and Lucus as very important. If he kept something from her, she
may not be able to ignore it or give him absolute privacy and freedom.
Yasmeen suddenly felt herself a little fussy.
She didn’t know what she wanted Lucus to do, but she just felt very wronged and uncomfortable at that
moment.
“It’s okay. I’ll go to the bathroom first. I’ll talk to you later.”
“Okay.”
Lucus didn’t say anything.
After Yasmeen went into the bathroom, Lucus directly opened the computer and asked Jaydon to send
over some bills of the Green Group, so he could have a look in advance.
Jaydon was Lucus’s special assistant. After Lucus took over the company, he also needed to join the
company.
Yasmeen locked herself in the bathroom and wanted to recall when she first met Julian.
Oh, yes! It was six months ago.
At that time, Lucus had just returned from the battlefield. Because he was badly injured, he had been
rescued in the rescue room for a long time.
Lucus and Nicole were very anxious, so was Yasmeen. But because of her identity and her relationship
with Lucus, no matter how nervous she was, she could not enter the military hospital to see him.
Yasmeen really had no choice.
That was the first time that Julian approached her and told her that he had a way to send her to the
hospital.
At that time, Yasmeen agreed without any hesitation.
Julian was really something. He could send her in without anyone noticing it.
When Yasmeen saw Lucus, she couldn’t even stand there.
Lucus of dignified bearing was lying there like a rag doll. It was said that the bullet had penetrated his
lumbar spine and injured his kidney.
Lucus needed a kidney transplant, but there was no kidney source in an emergency. If no suitable
kidney can be found, Lucus’s life would be in danger.
Luckily, her kidney was a good match for Lucus’s. That was the first time Yasmeen signed a donation
letter behind her family’s back and wanted everyone to keep her situation a secret.
Yasmeen was pushed into the operating room with Lucus. She felt that all the panic and uncertainty
about the future at that moment were not so terrible because that person was Lucus. However, she
never thought that Julian had made use of the readily exploitable loopholes just because of her
donation.
