NovelEnglishCaptivation Want Nothing But You Chapter 242 by Adolf Dunne
Before he was seven years old...
The light in Lukas’s eyes dimmed. He continued to roll up the sleeves for Joey in silence, stood up and steered the conversation
away from it, “Well, it’s getting late now. Joey, go to bed early. Pay attention to the wound on your hand and don’t touch water. If
you need anything, call me at any time.”Get new chapter update on heart.com
Joey sensed that Lukas didn’t want to continue. A trace of doubt flashed across his eyes, but he was sensible enough not to ask
him for any more questions. He looked down at his cufflinks, which had been neatly clipped, and nodded.
Lukas smiled at him and was about to leave the
room.
“Wait a minute, Mr. Smith.” Seeing that he was about to walk out of the room, Joey suddenly called out to stop him.
“What’s wrong?”
Joey pursed his lips and recalled what he had seen outside the baby’s room. After hesitating for a while, he asked tentatively.
“Mr. Smith, when I went to the bathroom just now, I saw the light in the room next door but one was on. Someone was inside.”

Lukas didn’t react at once and it took him a while to realize what kind of room it was.
After a short pause, he heard Joey asked again, “Mr. Smith, what’s that room? And that room seemed to be a little different from
other places. At that time, the door of that room was not completely closed. And I seemed to see a baby bed.”
“Did you see clearly who was in the room?” Lukas didn’t answer his question.
Joey blinked his eyes. It was obvious that Lukas cared about whether he had seen Victor or not. Joey thought for a while, shook
his head, frowned and said with a hint of distress on his face.
“That man was standing on the balcony. He was too far away from me that I couldn’t see him clearly.”
Lukas looked down at him deeply, as if he was
thinking about the authenticity of his words.
After a pause, Joey added, “Mr. Smith, so do you know who was inside the room?”
When Lukas looked into his eyes as
black as grapes, he narrowed his eyes. It seemed that he was thinking too much. He was just a child of three or four years old.
Sullivan for his child.”
With his eyes wide open, Joey asked in confusion, “Have Mr. Sullivan had a child? But I didn’t seem to see any child there.”

He looked down at Joey and couldn’t help reaching out his hand and gently stroking his head two times. There was a bit of pity in
his tone, “He used to have a child.”
He used to have one.
When he heard these words, Joey clenched his fists unobtrusively beside his body but asked in an innocent tone, “Why do you
say he used to have one? Where is the child? And I don’t seem to see Mr. Sullivan’s wife. Is the baby with his Mommy?”
“...Yes,” Lukas was obviously stunned for a
while, “They should be together now.”
“So Mr. Sullivan stays in the baby room because he miss his baby and wife?” @ Hearing Joey’s question, Lukas opened his
mouth but didn’t know how to answer it. At last, he could only laugh and said, “I suppose so.”
“That’s so strange.” He muttered.
“Why do you say like this?”
Turning his head a little, Joey said, “If he misses his baby and wife, he can go find them and bring them back, can’t he? Isn’t it
strange that he doesn’t pick them up but just stay in the baby’s room?”
“He can’t find them.”
Joey raised his head and looked into Lukas’s eyes. When he heard this, he clearly noticed a touch of pain in Lukas’s eyes.
The comer of Lukas’s mouth twitched. Apparently, he didn’t want to continue the topic, “Joey, someone can’t be found once he
leaves. You are still young, and you will understand when you grow up. Go to bed early.” Then Lukas walked out.
“Are they all gone?” As soon as Lukas walked out of the door, the voice of Joey suddenly rang out.
Lukas stopped abruptly.
He was obviously stunned. He turned around and looked at Joey in surprise.
“Mommy told me that she has a good bosom
friend who is not her biological sister but is more like her own sister.” “But Mommy lost her by accident. She said she couldn’t find
her bosom friend because she was dead and she could never see her again.”
“Mr. Smith, you said he couldn’t find it. Are Mr. Sullivan’s baby and wife dead just like my mommy’s bosom friend?” Four years
In the past four years, everyone had been trying their best to avoid this question, because every time they answered this
question, it was equivalent to reopening the bloody wound in the past.
Looking at Joey, Lukas seemed to see Miss Bennet for a moment. He was a little distracted and said, “If Miss Bennet didn’t still
die and the child was still alive, he should have been about your age.”
Although Joey had already been prepared for the fact that the owner of the baby room and the crib was probably himself, he was
still stunned when he really heard the exact answer from Lukas,
The picture of Victor smoking alone on the balcony came to his mind.
Was his scummy dad missing his mommy and him at that time? #
Somehow, Joey had mixed feelings about it
which he couldn’t tell.
He suddenly seemed to realize that he had always been wrong about his scummy father. In fact, he loved his mother and himself
very much, not abandoning his family at all.
But soon, Joey denied this idea.
It couldn’t be wrong!
If his scummy daddy loved his mommy and him so much, why did he leave his mommy alone? And his scummy father was going
to marry someone else.
“Mr. Smith...” said Joey, pursing his lips. He was sure that his scummy dad abandoned his family in his mind, but he hesitated
and wanted to know more, “I think the crib in the baby room is the most special. Is there any special story of it?”
“It was the crib prepared by Mr. Sullivan and his wife for that child.”
They prepared it themselves. The four words hit Joey’s eardrum hard and shocked his heart heavily.
“In the past four years, as long as Mr. Sullivan missed his wife and his baby, he would stay in
the baby room.” Lukas continued in a deep and slow voice, “He never allows anyone to move the things in the baby’s room.
Even the cleaning of the room is done by himself. Since Mrs. Sullivan passed away, Mr. Sullivan has been busy with his work
and seldom comes back. It has been a long time since anyone else came to the Sue Garden. Joey, you are the first one to come
here in the past four years.” “The first one?”
Did it mean that even the fiancee of his scummy father had also never been here? Joey was rather in doubt about it. Then he
heard Lukas said again, “Mr. Sullivan doesn’t like strangers to stay here overnight, but he actually would allow you to stay. In
fact, I can tell that Mr. Sullivan thought of his wife and
his child when he saw you.”
“Really?”
Lukasnoddedandsaidseriously, “Mr. Sullivan....”
“He has been looking forward to the birth of that child.” Get new chapter update on heart.com
