Chapter 213


    Lucas felt as if he had a headache. “Please don‘t get me wrong. That‘s not what I mean. I just feel that


    you have been trapped in this house for so many years. Now that you are in yourter years, you don‘t


    have to stay here for anyone.”


    This was the first time Reba had heard Lucas say such sweet things to her. Reba‘s eyes turned


    red. “You don‘t have to worry about me. I‘m doing well.”

    Reba was numb to many things now. She wished nothing but the best for her children.


    Lucas knew Reba was stubborn and didn‘t want to say anything more. “Take care of yourself. I‘ll mind


    my own business.”


    “Okay, thene back to eat more often when you have time.”


    “I see.”


    Lucas responded and turned to leave.


    Despite what he said, Lucas actually didn‘t want toe back even if he had time.


    Reba was not the reason. It was just the Thomas family was like a cage to Lucas.


    Too depressing. Too suffocating.


    Reba saw Lucas off. She gazed at his back for quite some time before she wiped her tears off.


    Reba walked out and Dwayne came over. “Mrs. Thomas, Mr. Justin Thomas wants to talk to you.”


    Reba paused. “I got it.”


    Reba knew what Justin wanted to say. But she was too timid to fight back against Justin. Even if


    Justin wanted to take Louis‘ mistress and that woman‘s son into the family, she would have to agree.


    “I know, Dad.”


    No matter what Justin said, that was Reba‘s only reply.


    Justin felt disgusted. He raised his hand and rubbed his temples. “Forget it. You may leave now.”


    Justin wondered why everyone around him seemed dissatisfactory.


    Reba nodded and turned to leave the study.


    However, Justin‘s words continued to linger in her mind. “Reba, you have been married to our family


    for forty years. I have always treated you.well. Those words just now were just words of anger. The


    Thomas family, in the end, will still be handed over to Lucas. You are his mother, and you should try


    talking reason into him more often.”


    Reba couldn‘t tell whether Justin was telling the truth.


    Lucas didn‘t know much about Louis‘ mistress and that bastard boy. But Reba did.


    She didn‘t look into that herself. Olivia told her.


    The other boy was a few years younger than Lucas. Louis kept that boy from sight. Nobody knew how he


    looked.


    Louis did that because he was afraid of Reba‘s parents. But now that Reba‘s family was getting


    worse and worse, Louis became bolder and bolder.


    Reba heard from Olivia that five or six years ago, Louis had sent the child abroad for further studies.


    Reba did not know if the boy was back.


    Reba thought it was not an ident that Justin knew about the child.


    When Max was still alive, there would be no surprise about the inheritance of the Thomas family, but with


    Max‘s death, things had changed: Lucas was not obedient to Justin, after all.


    Louis might be nning something, too. Reba felt a little uneasy at the thought, but she couldn‘t tell


    why.


    Usually, she would go to Olivia when she encountered such a situation, but now, Olivia became very


    downhearted because she had to leave LA.


    Reba had to return to her room.


    The next day, Jessica woke up in the morning and found that there were more rumors about her online.


    A certainizen vowed that Jessica and Lucas had definitely gotten back together becausest week,


    she had seen Justin at the airport in New York.


    Justin had such a great age. He even got into the hospital in the middle of the night a few days ago. With


    such a poor health condition, Justin still went to New York by himself. So he must have been there for


    something important.


    Coincidentally, thatizen happened to live in an apartment near the Hall‘s vi. When she went home,


    her car followed behind Justin‘s car. She saw with her own eyes that Justin‘s car went directly into the


    Hall‘s vi aftering out of the airport.


    Theizen provided the photos taken all along the way. But the photos failed to show what happened


    inside the vi.


    After all, the high–end vi that the Hall family lived in was not something ordinary people like her could


    enter. She also did not know the people living inside, so she could only stop at the gate.


    But Justin visited the Hall family. It must be for Lucas and Jessica. What else could his trip be for?
