After Samuel installed the astronomical telescope for Joseph, he walked down the stairs to the living
room, only to see Nicole in a daze.
"What's the matter?"
"I can't get through Lucas and Blair. They aren't on the plane either. Don't you think there is something
wrong?"
Nicole was nervous and took every bush for a bugbear.
Seeing that she was so worried, Samuel hurriedly comforted her. "Blair is with Lucas. He will be fine.
Don't worry, maybe they were delayed by something. Wait a bit longer, we'll hear from them."
"I can't help it. I'm scared."
Nicole put her arms around her knees and said something that made Samuel very uncomfortable.
Ever since Nicole came back with the children, things had happened one after another. She felt very
insecure.
He knew better than anyone else that Nicole wanted to protect the children, but now it seemed she had
this psychological shadow.
"Trust me, Lucas will be fine."
"Alright."
Nicole nodded, but she didn't look less worried at all.
Samuel knew that as long as she didn't know Lucas’ whereabouts, she would keep worrying.
He quickly took out his phone and called a few people. Not long after, news of Lucas came.
"Mr. Green, you have a good son. At such a young age, he is capable of hiking into the internal
defense network of our military region. Don't worry! He and Blair are now in the military region. The
leaders want to see him. He is a talented child. Why not train him properly from a young age? Don't
you think so?"
Nicole and Samuel were surprised.
Samuel hurriedly said, "The child is ignorant. I will teach him a lesson later."
"No, no. This child is quite talented. We plan to train him from now, but I don't know what you think. Do
you want him to have a military career?"
Nicole didn't expect that.
Samuel smiled and said, "We will consider it. When can Lucas come back?"
"In the afternoon. With Blair here, what do you worry about? Relax. Your son is precious to us now, and
we prefer to hide him rather than do anything to him."
Samuel joked about it and the two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.
Nicole felt like she was dreaming. After Samuel hung up the phone, she hurriedly asked, "Was I in a
dream just now?"
"No."
Samuel looked at her with amusement.
Nicole suddenly slapped him.
"It's all your fault. How many times have I said that Lucas can't be exposed to computer hackers' stuff
again? You didn't listen. Now he has been caught in the act and taken to the military region. What if he
caused some trouble?"
Nicole said gloomily.
Samuel felt that he was wronged, but he still said, "This means that our son is outstanding. Didn't you
hear him say that they wanted to train your son from now?"
"He was just being polite. Couldn't you tell? I'm telling you, Samuel Green, if Lucas dares to hack into
other people's network again in the future, you will answer for it."
Nicole stood up like a tigress and left.
"What does it have to do with me? I can't supervise him."
Samuel felt a little wronged.
Nicole said without turning her head, "Is he your son? Does he have genes of a stranger?"
These words left Samuel speechless.
Alright, he could only admit that his genes were too powerful. Was it his fault that his son was so
capable?
Samuel shook his head.
After knowing that Lucas was fine, Nicole finally felt relieved.
She went back to her room and took a shower. Then, she got a little sleepy and went straight to bed to
take a nap.
Samuel waited for Nicole to come down to continue educating him, but after waiting for a long time, he
did not see her come down. He went up to take a look.
When he saw Nicole fall asleep, he couldn't help but smile.
The children were precious to her. Knowing that they were fine, she naturally felt sleepy.
Traveling was a tiring job. She also worried about Tim and Maia's matters, and couldn't have a good
rest all this time.
Samuel adjusted the air conditioner, and then covered Nicole with a blanket before he went to the
study.
After Jacob knew that Samuel came back, he almost cried.
"Mr. Green, if you're not satisfied with me, can you just say it? I really can't do so much work. I haven't
contacted Olivia for more than a week. Please, Mr. Green, can you give me some days off so that I can
get my darling back?"
Hearing this, Samuel smiled and said, "Is it necessary?"
"Mr. Green, don't be so unkind. You lived with your family while I stayed in the company every day. I
didn't even have time to call my fiancée. Was it easy for me? I had work not only at the Eternal Group,
but also at the venture capital companies. I'm not you, Mr. Green. I can't do such a stressful job. I'm
going to collapse. I am asking for leave seriously! "
Jacob couldn't hold on any longer.
Samuel smiled and said, "Send me the work that has not been done. I will handle it."
"Really?"
"Don't you want to take a leave? If you don't, you can continue. I'll go rest."
As soon as Samuel said those words, Jacob immediately sent the rest of the work to Samuel's mailbox.
"Mr. Green, you are the cutest, the greatest, and the most considerate boss. Thank you."
Jacob's succession of flattery made Samuel feel somewhat elated.
"By the way, Tim had some trouble in Bordeaux. He might not be able to return for a while. You can go
back and see your parents if you have nothing else to do."
Hearing Samuel's words, Jacob hurriedly asked, "Is he alright?"
"He can handle it by himself. You don't need to worry."
"Alright, I'll go back and take a look."
Jacob and Samuel ended the call.
Samuel looked at the work in front of him, sighed, and then started doing it.
After Jacob packed his things, he called Olivia, but no one answered.
It looked like Olivia was mad at him.
Jacob decided to apologize to Olivia in person the next day. He went to the supermarket to buy some
things and then returned to the Louis'.
Seeing Jacob return, Mr. and Mrs. Louis were overjoyed.
They hurriedly took care of him.
Mrs. Louis looked at her son's skinny appearance and said worriedly, "Jacob, move back home. Your
father and I can't let you stay outside alone anymore. Besides, you are the young master of the Louis
family. Why do you want to be a vice president for Samuel? If you want to start a business, your father
will support you. Can we do it ourselves?"
Hearing Mrs. Louis' usual talk, Jacob immediately lost his appetite for food.
"Mom, if you try to persuade me like this, I really won't come back."
Seeing him like this, Ballard hurriedly glared at Mrs. Louis and smiled, "Your mother doesn't know
anything. Vice president of Eternal Group is much better than president of other companies. Moreover,
Samuel is well-connected. Son, I support you."
Jacob looked at Ballard and whispered, "Have you contacted Tim recently? Do you know how he is?"
Ballard was surprised.
"What are you talking about him? I don't know where the brat is hanging around. He's not in the
Seapolis City these days. He's always so willful and goes wherever he wants without telling me. If he
dies outside one day, I won't even know."
Jacob frowned.
"Are you happy if he really dies outside? No matter what, he's still your son, isn't he? Besides, I think
he's kind enough. If I were him, I wouldn't even be able to let my mother stay in this house."
Mrs. Louis flushed at Jacob's words instantly.
"Jacob, what are you talking about? Why are you speaking for him?"
"Isn't he my brother? What's wrong with me speaking for him? You enjoy the wealth he brings at home,
but you never care about his life or death. You want me to come back, but you never think about if that
will put Tim in an awkward situation. Do you take it for granted that Tim should accept or even approve
of anything you do? Why are you doing this to him? You don't even know where he is or what happens
to him. You actually want me to come back to such a cold family? Don't you think this is ridiculous and
ironic?"
After Jacob finished speaking, he got up and was about to leave, but Mrs. Louis grabbed the corner of
his clothes.
"Jacob, it's all my fault. But I love you, and your dad loves you too. I know I owe Tim, so I've never said
anything to him in all these years."
"What else do you want to say to him? You made him watch his mother go crazy since he was young.
Now, being Mrs. Louis, you go out with his father in public. What else do you want to do?"
Jacob suddenly felt a little depressed.
The two people in front of him were his parents, but he didn't want to admit that, not at all.
Compared to them, he would rather become brothers with Tim.
"I'm leaving."
This time, Jacob didn't stay any longer and directly left.
Mrs. Louis cried out and couldn't get her son back. She looked at Ballard and cried, "Say something.
My son is out all day and isn't going home. Don't you miss him?"
"Enough! Can't you see? Jacob is worried about that brat. Maybe something really happened to him."
Ballard was worried about Tim.
When Mrs. Louis saw him like this, she said angrily, "Even if you want to know what happened to Tim,
do you know where he is?"
"I don't know, but someone must know. No matter where Tim goes, he will talk to that person."
Mrs. Louis’ expression changed hearing these words.
"You're going to the sanatorium to see her? You haven't seen her for more than 20 years, and you
promised me that you wouldn't see her in this lifetime. Now you're actually going to see her?"
Mrs. Louis’ voice suddenly became sharp.
"I'm going to ask her Tim's whereabouts. Don't make trouble for no reason," Ballard said irritably.
"I don't care! I just won't let you go! Ballard, you said that the person you loved was me, and you
wanted me to be Mrs. Louis. But what am I now? People outside called me Mrs. Louis, but I have
nothing to do with you in law! Nothing! Do you understand?"
