12: Chapter 12 Never Part Again 12: Chapter 12 Never Part Again Those deep black eyes seed to swirl with stormy waves, brewing a sinister storm that made one’s heart tremble uncontrollably.
Elena Ryan’s heart fiercely “clenched” as her eyes flickered slightly.
“Lucas, I am your mother, can’t you trust over a girl you just t?”
“Moreover, it’s been seventeen years since that incident.
She was only one or two years old at the ti, how could she possibly rember so clearly?”
Serena Sumrs looked coldly at Elena, “Auntie, do you know what kind of experints were conducted in that laboratory?”
If she truly knew, she wouldn’t have asked such a question.
Lucas Shaw’s lips were tightly pursed, his dark pupils growing colder.
Back then, that group of people sought to research the highest quality genes and used children ranging from one to ten years old for experints.
Live human experints.
Every so often, they would inject a group of children with a drug and lock them in cages to observe their changes.
Because each person’s physique is different, the reaction of the drug in the body would also vary.
So children, after being injected, would beco extraordinarily intelligent.
So grew rapidly in physical size…
And so suffered severe side effects.
Thus, it was no surprise to Lucas that Serena could rember everything clearly, even the events from seventeen years ago.
Elena opened her mouth, hastily took a step back.
The Lucas in front of her had a cold, bloodthirsty look in his eyes, like a wild beast that could go berserk at any mont.
The look he gave her was chilling to the bone.
Cold enough to make her heart tremble.
At this mont, the people in the study seemingly heard the noise outside and ca out.
Master Shaw, seeing Lucas returned, hadn’t had the ti to feel happy when he sensed sothing was off in the atmosphere.
“What happened?”
“Elena, Lucas, why are you both standing here?”
Elena lowered her eyes, quickly concealing the emotions on her face, and respectfully said to Master Shaw, “Dad, it’s nothing, I was just chatting with Lucas.”
Master Shaw’s gaze fell on Serena, a sharp light passing through his eyes.
He had seen photos of Serena.
The girl in the photos looked obedient and pretty, her eyes carried a sense of detachnt from worldly affairs and innocent ignorance.
He didn’t expect that in person, Serena would be even more stunning than in her photos.
Standing next to Lucas, they looked like a perfect match.
His eyes swept over Lucas and Serena, Master Shaw’s eyes slightly moved, and a rare amiable smile squeezed out on his usually stern face, “So you are Serena?
Excellent, excellent!”
The still sowhat annoyed Serena’s eyes moved slightly, and her porcelain-white face instantly revealed a brilliant and ek smile.
“Hello, Grandpa!
I’m Serena, I will be the Shaw family’s granddaughter-in-law!
Please guide a lot from now on!”
Her words brought a delightful smile to Master Shaw’s face, which usually did not smile much.
Master Shaw looked at Serena with increasing satisfaction.
In his old age, he liked such sweet-spoken and well-behaved young girls.
“Ah!
All is well!
Lucas is a bit aloof, I was worried he wouldn’t find a wife, but now I can finally rest easy.”
“Serena, although Lucas is cold, he also has a gentle side.
Rest assured, our Shaw Family will certainly not mistreat you.”
“If Lucas ever upsets you, just co and tell .
I’ll take care of him!”
Elena Ryan’s eyes widened in astonishnt.
Was this the sa father-in-law who always had a stern face, one that even children would cry upon seeing?
When had he beco so amiable?
Having married into the Shaw Family for so many years, she rarely saw Master Shaw smile at her, not to ntion speak in such an affectionate tone.
Sudden discomfort arose in Elena’s heart.
With Master Shaw’s interruption, the violent emotions inside Lucas Shaw gradually cald down.
He slowly exhaled a turbid breath, his eyes still ice-cold when looking at Elena Ryan.
At this mont, the person beside him suddenly rose on her tiptoes, whispering into his ear, “Husband, don’t be angry!
After all, I’ve found you now!”
“Can we never part again from now on?”
Lucas lowered his gaze, feeling a warm breath at his ear, making the skin behind his ear instantly heat up.
This intense heat, like an electric current, rushed straight into his heart.
From now on…
Never to part again.
Lucas felt his heart trembling uncontrollably, a strange emotion he had never felt before slowly spreading from his chest to his limbs.
He lowered his gaze towards Serena Sumrs, noticing her taking his hand, their fingers interlocking tightly.
In the center of his palm was her warmth.
Warm, delicate.
Tender and soft.
Lucas Shaw, who had almost never had intimate physical contact with won for more than twenty years, cheeks suddenly flushed.
The last trace of violent emotion in his heart dissipated in the sweet words of Serena.
Like a frenzied lion being stroked, his ferocious deanor softened in an instant.
He slowly began to speak, his voice low and hoarse, murmuring, “Okay.”
From now on, as long as he lived, he would never let Serena leave his side.
Master Shaw spoke until his mouth was dry, only to find his grandson staring blankly at his hand.
He felt sowhat disappointed.
He was speaking earnestly, and the boy was daydreaming!
Master Shaw swept his hand, his beard bristling and eyes glaring fiercely as he sternly glared at Lucas Shaw, “Co with , I have sothing to ask you.”
When he looked towards Serena, his expression beca warm and cordial, “Serena, co with us too.
I have sothing to say to both of you.”
Lucas looked at Master Shaw’s back and couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his lips.
Was he really his biological grandson?
Otherwise, why the stark difference in treatnt?
He sighed, turning back to look at Serena with a soft and tender tone, “Don’t be afraid, Grandpa is just like that.”
Serena nodded, her lips curving slightly, “Grandpa is cute.
Just like my master.”
Both are playful old n.
Unfortunately, Master is not around; otherwise, he’d surely have many common topics with Grandpa!
Watching the two leave hand in hand, ignored Elena Ryan furrowed her brows.
Decades of upbringing prevented her from uttering any vulgar words, but her impression of Serena had reached an utmost low.
No way.
She had to think of sothing.
That Serena, clearly a tricky and cunning girl.
Otherwise, how could she have so quickly chard Lucas Shaw and Master Shaw around her finger?
Also, she didn’t believe there was such a thing as a gene-changing potion.
If there really was, it would have sold like crazy.
After all, many parents wish for their smart and outstanding children.
This must be a lie concocted by Serena!
Such a young girl, full of lies, without any upbringing!
How could such a girl beco her daughter-in-law?
Angered, Elena stomped her foot and then turned to leave the second floor.
