Chapter 1379: Chapter 1376: The Duel Between Daddy and Uncle Begins
Aidan Lucas might have been using his adorable children as a ploy to woo back his wife,
but the two little kids’ reluctance to part with him had, quietly, warmed his heart.
He thought he had lost so much during the four years he had been asleep, and he even resented his alter ego at one point.
But now, seeing how cute the two little kids were, and that they even felt sorry for him,
Aidan Lucas knew that these positive feelings were the result of his alter ego’s kindness toward the children.
Silently, he thanked his other self in his heart.
Aidan Lucas continued to ’sweet-talk’ his two treasures.
"Abbie, you don’t understand. Your Uncle David once mistook your mother for someone else, so he intended to get close to take revenge. Dad had to protect your mother, so..."
As he spoke, the regret in his eyes was undeniable.
"Forget it, let’s not talk about it anymore. Regardless, your Uncle David is not at fault. Okay... Dad needs to leave now, to avoid upsetting Uncle David when he arrives."
Aidan Lucas pried the two little kids’ hands off him, this time truly preparing to leave.
Just as Aidan Lucas reached the door of the hall, Abbie suddenly leaped up from the sofa, ran behind him, and wrapped her arms around his legs.
"Dad, you’re not allowed to leave! Abbie can help you, Abbie can make Uncle David like Dad, please don’t go!"
Lulu was a beat slower than Abbie, by then, she too had run over.
"Daddy, you’re not allowed to leave, Lulu will help Daddy!" Lulu hugged Aidan Lucas’s leg and wouldn’t let go.
Although she didn’t know how to help Daddy.
But she believed that Abbie surely knew! Abbie was the smartest!
"You guys..."
"Don’t worry, Dad, Abbie has a plan. Abbie knows what Uncle David’s weakness is!" Abbie liked Uncle David, of course, she knew what Uncle David cared about most.
"Is it your mother?" From what he knew about David, the man showed possessive tendencies even when he was just cousin Lily, and now that he had been promoted to a real brother, those tendencies were probably even more severe.
"It’s Mommy, but there’s another weakness... Anyway, Dad, don’t worry, Abbie will take care of everything..."
Abbie clung onto Aidan Lucas’s leg, pulling him back, "Dad, please come back with us. Mommy and Uncle will be home soon, we should go to the bedroom first to get ready."
Lulu was currently playing the ’patient’, so they needed to act convincingly to deceive both Mommy and Uncle.
Aidan Lucas hesitated for a moment, but seeing Abbie’s confidence, he decided to leave this crucial meeting in Abbie’s hands.
He believed that his son, Aidan Lucas’s son, would not let him down.

"How could Lulu have fallen from a tree? She’s so timid, why would she climb a tree? She must have been lured up there by someone... Abbie didn’t elaborate over the phone just now, exactly where did she fall and how serious is it?"
A dark Rolls-Royce Phantom was driving towards the Lu family’s mansion, with Lily and David inside.
Ever since Lily had heard about Lulu’s accident on the airplane, she had been restless.
These questions had been repeated over and over.
"Lily, don’t worry. If Lulu was really in danger, Abbie wouldn’t have sounded like that on the phone. Besides, Abbie said that Lulu kept crying and wouldn’t allow any medication or injections. If she was seriously hurt, would she still have the energy to cry and fuss?"
It was for this reason that David had remained calm.
A child who can cry and fuss is unlikely to be in grave danger.
Moreover, David trusted Abbie; even though he always pretended to dislike Lulu, he took very good care of his little sister.
"But both kids’ phones are unreachable, and no one at the Lucas residence is answering the phone... Brother, should we..."
"No." Without a second thought, David dismissed Lily’s suggestion.
He knew Lily wanted to call Aidan Lucas to ask him to check on things.
"We’ll be there in half an hour, just hang on a little longer, be a good girl." David patted Lily’s head, advising her, "Men are all stubborn. Listen to your brother, Lily, don’t go looking for Aidan Lucas. That will only teach him to take you for granted even less."
