Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1810

Yasmeen was entirely stunned. She stared at the magnified handsome face in front of her with her eyes opened. She felt it was dreamy and could not distinguish if this was real.

Even if Lucas was really mentally strong, he was also a little embarrassed to be looked at by her like that.

“Close your eyes.”

His voice was hoarse and his eyes were with a hint of lust.

Yasmeen suddenly felt that her heartbeat was a little out of control. She hurriedly closed her eyes and felt Lucas’s slightly cool thin lips that were covering hers again and then twisting and entangling.

The temperature in the room skyrocketed to the boiling point at once. Yasmeen even thought she would drown in the tenderness but at the most critical point, there was a gunfire sound outside.

Lucas and Yasmeen were stunned. Almost subconsciously, Yasmeen jumped off Lucas’s lap and turned around to get Lucas’s jacket. She then said while walking, “Be careful. I’ll wait for you here to come back.”

Seeing this scene, Lucas froze.

It was as if she had rehearsed this action countless times and an instinct had been formed in her body as if she was ready for Lucas to go on a mission at any time. This deeply stung Lucas’s heart.

Lucas’s throat was a bit sore. He held Yasmeen’s hand and spoke in a low voice, “Yasmeen, I’ve retired from the military. I’m just an ordinary businessman now.”

Once, Lucas used to be proud as a soldier.

He had never thought about how much his family would be worried about him when we went on missions because Samuel and Nicole never showed it in front of him. All his family members supported and encouraged him with his ambitions.

He had never seen how was his family worried about him, but now from Yasmeen’s subconscious actions, he apparently saw a woman who loved him was nervous at all times and was worried about him due to his ambitions, yet arranged her life and lifestyle according to his liking.

Lucas was touched.

Realization dawned on Yasmeen after she heard Lucas say so. She could not help but feel a little embarrassed.

She knew since she was young that Lucas aspired to be a soldier to protect the country. So, she had always demanded herself with the responsibilities of a soldier’s standard wife.

Although she was not in a relationship with Lucas, whenever she heard an unexpected major accident, she would put herself in the shoes and then imagine what should she do if Lucas was in front of her. Was it to stop or obey him?

Later she learnt that she should support. She should respect his faith and ambition and always be ready for it.

Now this kind of responsibility and idea had long been marrow-deep so that she was constantly able to react accordingly whenever she faced any unexpected situation. It formed an instinct over time.

Now, this instinct was shown for the first time but when Yasmeen heard that Lucas had retired from the military, she was not actually used to it for a moment.

But, she thought of Lucas’s feelings rapidly.

Upon having been demanding herself with the responsibility of a soldier’s wife, she was not used to it, so would not Lucas, who had always taken it as his duty to protect his country also feel sad and was not used to it?

Yasmeen hurriedly said, “This is the Military Hospital of Capital City and Michele is still here. The sound of gunfire is very close, it must be nearby. Do you want to go over and take a look?”

“I’m a wounded person and also a businessman. There are soldiers and police outside. I don’t need to do so.”

Lucas pulled Yasmeen into his arms.

For the first time, he did not rush out after hearing the gunshots. It was also the first time that he truly realized how much he had made the people close to him worried about him because of his ambition and faith.

A large part of his merit badge came from the support of his loved ones and the understanding of his lover. At this moment, the disappointment of retirement from the military was completely replaced with his heartache for Yasmeen. There was also a hint of heartache and sadness.

“Yasmeen, I love you.”

When these words were uttered, Yasmeen was instantaneously shocked.
