Seeing this, Lucas sighed and shook his head.
"Mommy, you should call his family quickly. I'm afraid that we'll have to call a doctor for him later. Don't
you see that Samuel had put on his angry face?"
Nicole paused for a moment when hearing this.
She looked at Lucas and found that Joseph was also looking at her. He looked sympathetic about
Booth.
So, both Lucas and Joseph could tell that Booth would definitely be beaten up today?
And they didn't stop him!
Nicole knew Lucas very well and she understood why he didn't help Booth. But Joseph lived with Booth
for more than a month. Although he was a little autistic, Nicole thought that he could still feel the
outside world. Why did he just let Booth, who didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, provoke
Samuel?
Nicole looked at them helplessly. It was too late to call Olivia now. She could only make a gesture to
Lucas that she was gonna leave for a while.
Lucas said, "Mommy, the more you care about Uncle Booth, the angrier Samuel will be, and the more
likely Uncle Booth will get beaten up. Can't you see? Samuel is jealous!"
Jealous?
Nicole was stunned.
She sighed when she recalled what had happened just now.
Did Samuel really think that she and Booth had an affair?
God. She was really speechless.
Booth was three years younger than her.
Lucas seemed to sense what Nicole was thinking and said unhurriedly, "To marry a woman who is
three years older than oneself will bring him goof fortune. Age is not a problem."
Nicole choked again.
Who did this kid learn from?
Why did he know so much?
She glared fiercely at Lucas and thought for a moment. Then she quickly ran towards the backyard.
Lucas looked at Joseph and smiled mischievously, "Joseph, guess which one of them will fall first,
Uncle Booth or Samuel?"
"Uncle Booth."
Joseph subconsciously replied.
"I think so. How dare he provoke Samuel? I didn't know where he's borrowed the courage from?"
Lucas shook his head, but suddenly, he was dumbfounded.
He turned around and looked at Joseph. "Joseph, who did you say would fall first?"
Joseph smiled and kept his mouth shut.
"Hey, don't be silent. Didn't you just say that? Who is it? Say it."
Lucas was extremely excited.
Didn't Mommy say that Joseph had autism?
And he usually didn't say anything?
Did he just hear an auditory hallucination?
Lucas grabbed Joseph's hand tightly, which made Joseph feel a little painful.
He frowned and said, "It hurts."
"That's not important. I'm asking you. Who's going to fall first?"
Lucas was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"So you're not sick! You didn't have autism, right? I have to tell Mommy!"
Lucas was so happy that he forgot about the plaster on his leg. He got out of bed and fell to the ground
with a thud when he landed.
"Ah! It hurts!"
Now it was his turn to cry out for pain.
Joseph's expression immediately changed.
Lucas was irreplaceable in his heart. He was there when Riley abused Lucas, and he was also there
when Bruce said that he was going to kill Lucas.
One of his parents abused Lucas, and the other wanted to kill Lucas. However, Lucas was so good to
him, which made Joseph always feel that he owed Lucas.
Lucas was very different from others. To him, Lucas was the most important person.
When he saw Lucas fall to the ground, Joseph panicked and was very anxious.
"How are you? Where does it hurt? I'll call a doctor for you."
Joseph could not help Lucas up. He was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat.
He told Lucas to stay here and he quickly ran out.
Lucas waited for him to run out before laughing out loud.
"Autism? I don't believe you can still be autistic when you meet me."
As he spoke, he tried to move a little bit, but he winced as a sharp pain shot through his leg.
This really cost him an arm and a leg.
If it wasn't for Joseph, he wouldn't do it.
When Joseph ran out of the ward and saw the nurse and doctor, he suddenly didn't know how to bring
the matter up.
He stood in front of the doctor, tried to open his mouth but didn't know what to say. He was so nervous
that he broke out in a sweat again.
"Hey kid, what's wrong?"
The doctor had to ask him since Joseph was blocking the way and didn't speak.
Joseph felt a little upset.
He cared about Lucas and was also worried. But now, his throat seemed to be blocked by something,
and he wanted to speak but couldn't.
"What happened? Is there something wrong? How about taking you to have an examination?"
Seeing Joseph being so uncomfortable, the doctor was very worried about him.
Joseph shook his head, pointed at Lucas’ ward, and then took the doctor's hand.
The doctor understood. But looking at Joseph, he couldn't help but sigh, "You're really good-looking.
What a pity."
She thought Joseph was dumb.
Without any explanation Joseph took the doctor to Lucas’ ward.
Lucas was still sitting on the ground, grimaced. Seeing the doctor, he hurriedly said, "Doctor, I fell off
the bed. It hurts."
Joseph ran to Lucas and reached out to hold his hand with a worried expression on his face.
The doctor's face turned pale when she saw Lucas sitting on the ground.
"Blimey! Why are you sitting on the ground? Didn't I tell you not to move randomly? You have to rest on
bed for at least three months if you've broken you bones. Do you know how long have you been here?"
As he spoke, the doctor carried Lucas onto the bed, and then checked him. Only after discovering that
there was nothing serious did she let out a sigh of relief.
"I'm telling you. If you don't listen to me again, I'll tie you to bed. Although it's a child's nature to be
active, you can't be so disobedient. Otherwise, I'll tell your father."
The doctor couldn't help but frighten Lucas.
Lucas had only been here for one day, so the doctor did not know Lucas very much. In addition,
Samuel's social status made the doctor pay too much attention to Lucas.
However, Lucas didn't care about this. "Perhaps you'll need to check my daddy later."
"What do you mean?"
The doctor was puzzled.
Lucas said with a shrug, "Nothing. Please check my leg. Is it broken again? It hurts so much."
With that, he winked and made signs to the doctor.
The doctor couldn't understand. Before she could say anything, Joseph asked Lucas, "Where does it
hurt?"
The doctor was suddenly stunned.
"Aren't you dumb?"
"You're dumb!"
Lucas retorted.
The doctor was very embarrassed. She looked at Joseph, but Joseph did not care about her words at
all. Perhaps Lucas was the only one in Joseph's heart.
"So he..."
"You can go out now."
Lucas didn't like the doctor anymore.
The doctor couldn't take a hint! And he didn't even know how to cooperate with him.
After the doctor left, Lucas looked at Joseph and said carefully, "Joseph, are you angry?"
"Does it still hurt?"
Joseph touched Lucas’ leg in plaster, as if he didn't hear what Lucas and the doctor talked about at all.
All of his attention was on Lucas’ leg.
"I just want you to be anxious and talk more. How can you not talk? I'm already very sad about
mommy's silence. If you don't talk, what should I do?" Lucas said unhappily.
Joseph suddenly paused.
He looked at Lucas, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry."
"Don't say sorry. You didn't do anything wrong. I just don't want to see you like this. I'm really sad. If
Zoe sees you, she'll cry."
"She has seen me."
"What?"
Lucas was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't keep up with Joseph's rhythm.
This was the first time Joseph saw Lucas in such a daze, so he couldn't help but smile.
"Yeah! You smile! It'll be much better if you laugh. Well, we have a deal that you're not allowed to be
autistic again. I only have one brother. Are you trying to make me suffocated by not saying anything?"
Lucas punched Joseph on his shoulder.
Joseph smiled and felt embarrassment.
"That's right. I wonder what the situation of Samuel is now."
Lucas sounded worried.
"With mommy here, we don't need to be afraid."
Joseph said.
"You don't understand men," Lucas said in disapproval. "If mommy was only standing there, then it
would be fine. But, if mommy helped Uncle Booth, Uncle Booth would come to no good."
"Why?"
Joseph raised his head with a puzzled expression.
Lucas felt that he was very knowledgeable. He said in a good manner, "When you grow up and when
you fall in love, you will know."
"Have you fallen in love?"
Joseph's words made Lucas stunned, and then he said proudly, "Of course."
"Who is it?"
"I won't tell you!"
Lucas showed a mysterious smile.
Joseph did not ask anymore. To him, as long as Lucas was happy, that would be enough.
Just as Nicole came out, she saw Samuel punch Booth on the shoulder.
Booth subconsciously covered his face when Samuel's fist came over, but he didn't expect Samuel to
hit him on the shoulder.
He felt as if he was going to lose his entire shoulder.
"Holy shit! Why don't you do it according to the common rule?"
Booth gritted his teeth in pain, and he was unconvinced. He swayed and punched Samuel towards his
cheek.
"Never hit someone on the face. Looks like no one has taught you this."
Samuel easily dodged Booth's attack, and then grappled him to the ground.
He was very strong, and his arm was like a hawkbill. Booth could not struggle out of his arm no matter
how hard he tried. He was kneeling on the ground under Samuel's pressure.
"If you are a man, then let go. Let's do it again!"
Booth was unconvinced.
Actually, he was too aggrieved.
He was just forced to kneel before he could make any moves. This was the first time Booth had
suffered such a defeat.
Samuel sneered and said, "It'll be same even if we do it ten more times. There are some things that
you can't do it as you want. For the sake of your taking care of Nicole this past month, I'll let you go.
But you'd better stay away from her. She is mine!"
"Bullshit! You are going to get divorced! You can't look after your own woman, and you still want to
dominate her. Are you a real man?"
Booth scolded Samuel without stopping, making Samuel look at him with a scowl.
"It's time for you know who I am."
As he spoke, his strength suddenly increased.
Booth shouted.
Nicole was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward and pushed Samuel away. She
subconsciously protected Booth behind her. She glared at Samuel as if he had hurt someone she
cherished most.
