Get you in my arms

Chapter 129 He Is On The Verge Of Breaking Down (Part Two)

Casting a glance at her, Lucas was furious. He turned to her and smiled, "I have to deal with something. Be good at home."

Sophia thought it was for business and nodded.

Lucas rushed to Chuck's villa at a bullet speed. He had an urge to kill him.

Upon seeing Lucas, Chuck was shocked. This was the first time that Lucas had come to visit his family in the past ten years. Ellie happened to come over to see Chuck. She ran to him and took his arm. "Lucas, are you here for my brother?" She thought that Lucas wanted to make up with Chuck, which made her extremely happy.

"Ellie, I have something to talk with Chuck." Caressing her head, Lucas said, "Good girl, go to the room first."

Ellie nodded and went away obediently. She opened the door of the room and peeped into it.

Chuck lit a cigarette and asked, "Why are you here?"

Lucas had no patience to make small talks.

"You have been to these cities recently. Holy Maurice, Provence, Los Angeles. What a coincidence! You have the same date with Sophia and I in honeymoon?"

"What? Is it necessary for me to tell you where I am going? " Chuck puffed a smoke at his face.

Lucas grabbed him by the collar. The cigarette hanging from the corner of his mouth fell to the ground, crunching. He stubbed it out and said, "You'd better tell me what you want to do with us?"

"Why should I tell you?" Chuck pushed away him and pulled his collar so as to cover the red birthmark on his neck. Normally, he preferred to use the collar instead of showing this weakness to others! I'm not interested in following you! " He smoothed his clothes which had been messed up by him. At this time, a piece of white gauze was exposed from his sleeve. At the sharp sight of it, Lucas shouted.

"What's wrong with your arm?"

"It's none of your business!" With a groan, Lucas pulled up his sleeves.

There was a rage in Lucas's eyes. He hit Chuck with his fist, and the latter was knocked to the ground. Lucas rushed to him again, pulled him up and slammed him against the wall. "Chuck, if you have balls, take it out on me. Sophia is innocent. If you dare hurt her one more time, I will kill you!" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Chuck spat a mouthful of blood on the ground, "Are you here to fight with me? Fine, I'll be there!" He clenched his fists and tried to hit Lucas. But the latter dodged, Chuck rushed to him again. The latter was against the table. " You are never my opponent in fighting!"

Ellie couldn't wait any longer and ran out of the room. "Lucas, Chuck, stop fighting. Let's find out the truth first. I believe that Chuck won't do such a thing."

Then Lucas let go of Chuck, but Chuck was not convinced. He still wanted to fight back, but was hugged by Ellie. "Brother, do you know that when Lucas and Sophia were on their honeymoon, someone wanted to hurt Sophia?"

Chuck sneered, "Then let's ask him whether he has owed any love affair or not."

"Brother, it's not the time for you to be angry. Why are these places you are going to are same as their honeymoon places?" Ellie let go of him and poured cold water for Lucas and Chuck to calm them down.

Chuck wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth and took a sip of water. "I don't know where they are going. I just take Melody there for fun. She told me where she wanted to go, so I took her there."

"So, it's Melody who wants to go these places?" Ellie was shocked. "Hasn't she always been mad?"

"She's not crazy. Sometimes she is a little sober. She talks to me and smiles to me." A sense of happiness spread over Chuck's face.

"How did your arm get hurt?" Lucas asked, he hoped it had nothing to do with Chuck.

"This morning, when he was pruning a flower branch in the garden, he accidentally cut his hand. It was me who bandaged it." Ellie responded.

Lifting up his sleeves, Lucas saw that the gauze was still bleeding. Apparently, the wound was fresh.

"You see it clearly?" Chuck pulled down his sleeves and sneered, "You have owed so many love affairs. You have to pay them back sooner or later."

"Come on, Chuck. We all know what kind of person Lucas is. It's obvious that those girls have one- sided crush on each other and want to chase the man they love. However, t turned that his fault and all the people thought he was a playboy." With a pout, Ellie took out a can of frozen juice from the fridge, opened it and took a sip. "Brother, let me tell you. If you know who wants to hurt Sophia, you will be scared."

"I didn't do bad things, so I won't be afraid."

Ellie rolled her eyes at him and whispered in his ear, "It's Joyce!"

He was startled and jumped up from the sofa as if he was really frightened. "That's impossible. Joyce is dead!"

"Are you frightened?" Ellie laughed with her mouth covered. "Thriller, huh? I'm going to take this topic for a thriller."

There was a muscle on Chuck's face that was throbbing violently. Lucas looked at him deeply, reading the subtle reaction.

At this moment, the door of another room was opened. Melody came out from the room controlled by a wheelchair. Her eyes fell on Lucas. Her vacant eyes suddenly lit up. "Lucas? Lucas, is that you? "

Lucas looked at her. He was not sure if she was sober or mad, but Chuck ran to her in surprise and held her shoulder. "Melody, you wake up again, right?"

Frowning, Melody murmured, and Chuck loosed his hand in panic. "I'm sorry, Melody. I forgot the wound on your shoulder." "Two months have passed. Why hasn't it healed yet? Let me take you to see a doctor." Chuck said worriedly.

Smiling at him, Melody shook her head and said, "Don't worry. It's not a big deal. You forget that I have scar constitution and the wound is not easy to heal.."

An indescribable look swept across Lucas's face for a moment. He walked over and squatted in front of Melody. "Melody, I'm here to see you. Are you okay?"

She lowered her eyes. The thick eyelashes cast a melancholy shadow on her fair eyelids. "But my legs are injured and I haven't been reviewing my lessons. What should I do, Lucas?"

Her words made Chuck's heart sink, and his beautiful face suddenly darkened, even gloomier than the twilight outside the window. It turned out that she wasn't sober at all. She was just bluffing.

With a smile, Lucas caressed her head, "Don't worry. I'll help you with your homework."

"Yes." She nodded and forced a smile which looked so innocent and pure.

Standing up and walking behind her, Lucas fixed his eyes on her shoulder and asked, "Melody, is your shoulder hurt? Let me help you with the medicine, okay?"

"No way!" "I don't want you to see me in such an ugly place." said Melody, hurriedly grabbing her collar

"Melody, it's just a wound. It will recover in a few days. It won't be ugly." Lucas came to her and smiled gently.

"No! No! Please don't!" Covering her ears, Melody shook her head and screamed wildly.

Chuck pushed away Lucas and held Melody in his arms. "It's okay, Melody. You're fine..." He murmured, constantly touching her head to calm her down.

Looking at them, Ellie was very sad. She felt that it was not worth it for Chuck. He was destined to live for Melody, but what he had done for more than ten years did not get her heart in return. Even if she was mad now, the one she kept thinking was her dear Lucas.
