Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 1718 I Don’t Want to See You

A trace of panic flashed through Yasmeen’s eyes, but shortly she covered it. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“What are you talking about, Lucas?”

“Stop pretending. Yasmeen, I thought you’ve changed better in the past years. It turned out it was just

my illusion. You are still the arrogant, willful daughter from the Shaw family without caring about others’

feelings, aren’t you?”

Lucas shook off Yasmeen, feeling a slight pang in his heart.

In the past several years, Yasmeen had been graceful and gentle. She treated others with good

manners and was exceptionally hard-working. For the sake of the Green and the Bradford families, he

had to take care of her after she came here to study.

In the beginning, Lucas refused to do so. Later, he found that they could get along well, and he

gradually had a crush on her. After all, they had a lot of hobbies in common. However, he kept

wondering why she had appeared in the place where he carried on his mission.

An ordinary person wouldn’t be able to get up there.

Lucas didn’t want to wonder if Yasmeen had anything to do with that terrorist because he wouldn’t be

able to face that hostage as soon as he thought about it.

He was highly shocked, so he was entirely focused on Yasmeen, who showed up on the scene all of a

sudden.

Lucas recalled what he was thinking at that time.

He was worried that Yasmeen would be found by others.

Hence, he hadn’t heard clearly what the kidnapper said. When Yasmeen was almost exposed in his

colleagues’ sight, he pulled the trigger in a hurry. Since he wasn’t concentrated, he didn’t calculate the

distance and the wind direction accurately, so the kidnapper grabbed the hostage to block his bullet in

a panic.

The hostage was only twenty-three years old.

Due to his absent mind, his bullet went through the hostage’s womb. She wouldn’t become a mother all

her life.

That was the first time in his career that he missed the target. However, it ruined a girl’s life.

Lucas didn’t deny his mistake. Probably, God also wanted to blame him, so the kidnapper threw a

bomb at him. He dodged it, but his eardrums were injured. Now he was deaf.

Since he woke up until now, he kept wondering why Yasmeen had shown up there.

Yasmeen had a particular identity. She should know what consequences there would be when she was

found at the scene. Any clear thinking person would avoid it. Besides, the scene was already

surrounded by the military force and the police. No one else could enter, but Yasmeen had entered.

He had known her for so many years, so Lucas didn’t think he had mistaken her.

Moreover, the trace of panic in Yasmeen’s eyes just now also took away the last hope in his heart.

“What’s your relationship with that terrorist?” Lucas asked.

He gazed at Yasmeen without a blink, hoping to find some clues from her expression and eyes.

The aggressive aura emanated from him made Yasmeen feel so hard to breathe. Sweat oozed in her

palms. However, she bit her bottom lip without uttering any word.

She knew that she had harmed him.

When he pulled the trigger, she knew that she had made the trouble to Lucas.

She didn’t want to cause such a problem, but...

“Tell me. What’s your relationship with him?”

Lucas suddenly grabbed her shoulders. His gorgeous eyes were reddish, looking so horrible.

His fingers were like iron hooks, and they sank into Yasmeen’s flesh. The pain made her pale, but she

still didn’t utter any sound. Lucas increased his strength, and she could feel how much he wished to

crush her bones.

She fully understood how he was feeling now.

Lucas was a soldier of Country Z. However, she had appeared at the kidnapping scene, which made

him injure the hostage from his country. Since she was a foreigner, Yasmeen guessed that Lucas

would think of himself as her accomplice.

It was against the loyalty to his faith and conscience.

However...

Yasmeen felt a pain in her swollen eyes, but she tried her best to hold back her tears. Looking at

Lucas’s angry face, she said slowly, “I’ll take the initiative and tell your boss directly. I’ll tell him I have

made you absent-minded. No worries. I won’t let them punish you. I...”

“Do you think I will care about the punishment? Yasmeen, don’t you fucking know what on earth I care

about?”

Since Yasmeen spoke quite slowly, Lucas could understand her very well. He felt more upset.

Suddenly, he released Yasmeen as if all his strength had been pulled out. He put away all his mood

and emanated a cold and aloof aura. At this moment, Yasmeen felt that he was too far away from her.

“Lucas...” she called him.

“Get out! I don’t want to see you again. Just leave me alone! If you don’t want to tell me your

relationship with the kidnapper, you’d better keep it secret forever without telling anyone.”

Lucas clenched his fists. His palms were bleeding because of the sunk nails, but he didn’t care about it.

Looking at him, Yasmeen felt that they had returned to the first time they got to know each other. In the

past several years, their harmony seemed to be an illusion, which caused a sharp pang in her heart.

“I have reasons, Lucas. May I tell you another day? Please don’t send me away. You need someone to

take care of you now. Lucas, please!”

Yasmeen subconsciously wanted to take his arm, but Lucas shook her hands off. He stared daggers at

Yasmeen. Those sweet moments between them seemed to vanish instantly. Right then, Lucas looked

at her as if he was looking at a stranger.

“Get out of here!”

He pushed Yasmeen away and walked to the bathroom, locking the door from the inside.

Yasmeen bit her bottom lip, tears welling up in her eyes.

Why she had appeared there was confidential.

She knew as long as she would tell Lucas about it, they could be reconciled, but she couldn’t.

Yasmeen had never hated her identity before, but at this moment, she hated it to the core as she was

from another country.

She knew she was losing Lucas.

She was so reluctant.

She had a crush on him at first sight when she was a child. Finally, they had forgotten grudges between

them and would confess love to each other soon. She didn’t expect this matter would happen.

Yasmeen bit her bottom lip, shedding tears.

On the other hand, Lucas opened the three-dimension computer on his wrist when hiding in the

bathroom. He located the surveillance video of his mission immediately.

Yasmeen’s entire face wasn’t shown in the video clip. Instead, her figure flashed through the camera.

However, her figure would attract the military force’s attention and cause an investigation.

Based on his faith, Lucas knew what he should do was correct. However, thinking about Yasmeen

outside, he did something against his faith for the very first time in his life.

He typed something on the keyboard, and her figure disappeared on the video without any trace.

At this moment, he chose to protect Yasmeen.

Lucas had never expected that he would have done it.
