Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1754

“I'm leaving.”

Lucas’s words made Edison stunned, and then he suddenly realized, “Oh, you mean the quarantine, right? Don’t worry. With Michele and I around as well as protection from Mr. Morty, you will be fine. The whole military area belongs to us. It’s just a mere formality, don’t be so nervous.”

Hearing Edison’s thoughts, Lucas didn't explain so much. Compare to let him accept the sadness of parting, it will be better to let him think so. He will calm down and everything will be fine.

“Well, I see. Just be well, boss. Since I am not around, you’d better be careful.”

“Understood.”

After settling down Edison, Lucas hung up the phone and then began to write a retirement application. In the application, he even advised Edison to replace him.

Edison's qualifications and experience were sufficient to take his position.

After settling everything, Lucas found Mark Don.

“Uncle Mark, do me a favor. I want to retire.”

“Are you crazy?”

Mark was about to explode.

“Lucas, do you know that if you go one step forward now, you can reach a height that few people can get to with life effort. Now you tell me that you are retiring?”

“Yes, it’s my decision.”

Lucas didn’t feel anything. Perhaps in everyone's eyes, Lucas wouldn’t be emotional even if mount Alps collapses in front of him.

He said gently, “Uncle Mark, my gun for the mission was set up.”

As soon as he said this, Mark fell into silence, with his brows tightly frowning.

He is also a veteran and certainly knows what Lucas's words mean. After a little thought, he said, “You mean that you fake to retire to make the people behind this relax their vigilance. So that you can capture that bastard?”

“That is your job uncle Mark. It has nothing to do with me. I really want to retire.”

As soon as Lucas said this, Mark was not calm again.

“What do you mean? Do you have a new mission? Or do you have other plans? Or it’s a new order from Morty?”

“No, I just want to retire and leave the army so that I can work with my own business.”

“Are you crazy? Lucas, do your parents know? Does Mr. Morty know?”

Faced with Mark’s rage, Lucas still said calmly, “Uncle Mark, this is my own life. I can call the shots.”

Mark was suddenly silent.

Lucas has always been an independent child. Mark has known this for a long time, but he is also the most potential and talented child among the younger generation.

“Tell me a reason. If it is because of accidental injure of hostage, I can tell you very responsibly that I can handle this for you.”

“No, I just simply want to leave the army.”

With his finger rubbing his temples, Lucas pursed his thin lips and said, “Uncle Mark, I am going to get married.”

“What does this have to do with your retirement?”

“It’s related!”

Lucas whispered, “When I was alone, I could charge for my country and my people wholeheartedly. Neither riches nor honors can corrupt me; neither poverty nor humbleness can make me swerve from principle, and neither threats nor forces can subdue me. But now that I have someone to stay together with for a lifetime, I can’t go back to that time. I will hesitate to do what I could have done. I imagined that if one day my wife was kidnapped or held hostage by terrorists, would I be able to calmly focus on the interests of my country and my people? But I couldn’t find the answer.”

“What are you doing?”

Molly glanced at him helplessly.

Michele and her younger brother also looked at Morty.

Morty said angrily, “Lucas, this brat...”

“Dad, what's wrong with Lucas?”

Michele became nervous.

Morty froze for a moment and then said, “What else can he do. He was pissing me off. I tell you what! Don’t from him in the future. Sooner or later I will be died because of you.”

After speaking, Morty stopped eating and hurriedly left the dinner table. When he was outside calling Lucas again, he couldn't get through.

Morty yelled angrily and went directly to Mark, only to find the retirement application of Lucas.

He still wanted to say something, but Lucas left him a special letter. Morty fell into silence after reading it.

He was really the son of Samuel. He never looked back. He even compiled his experience and knowledge over the past few years into the notebook and left it to the army, but he was gone.

Seeing that Lucas was so determined to leave, Morty remained silent for more than two hours before finally signing the application.

Lucas’s accidental injury to the hostages was settled by his voluntary retirement, but Michele and Edison didn’t know this. They didn’t know at all the mean thing they talked about Yasmeen in the hospital would become them parting with Lucas.

After getting everything ready, Lucas asked them to make a silver half-face mask, but he fell asleep comfortably. He got up before dawn the next day and went directly to the secret training base of the Green family.

The alarm at the training base went off in no time, and everyone was awakened from their sleep. Before they could resist, they were choked by Lucas's tear gas canisters, except one guy.
