Chapter 159 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• Zeke looked at the hooligans collapsing in the throes of agony on the ground, muttered his acknowledgment expressionlessly, and followed Nicole back toward the hotel. ‘It seems like Lucifer is really gentle with me,’ Zeke thought. ‘Had she treated me like she treated these hooligans, I would’ve…’ He shivered involuntarily at the thought. Nicole looked at him and frowned. “You’re cold?” Zeke shook his head vigorously. “I just suddenly feel you are really nice to me.” Nicole stared at him. She had no words. She reflected on how she had given him this illusion.
• Zeke did not care what was on her mind. Instead, he looked at her longingly, his voice adoring her. “Lucifer, could you teach me a few tricks?” Nicole studied him for a while and said, “It’s kind of hard, as your foundation is too shallow.” Zeke refused to give up. “You can train me. I saw that on TV; they all do that. Seeing Nicole’s contemptuous gaze, he could not continue his sentence but lowered his head, feeling dejected. “My father didn’t like me because I was physically weak. He didn’t care much about me or place his hope in me. But I also wanted to be strong.”
• Nicole looked at him with no emotion in her eyes and said calmly, “As far as I know, you’re the only child in the family. I know your tricks, both left and right. It isn’t going to work on me.” Zeke choked. He could no longer shuck and jive. ‘How could I forget that she knew me better than my parents did?’ So Zeke said nothing more and dragged his feet to step back. Zeke did not lie or even exaggerate when he said that just now. He was born into such a family. He had a little problem with his health when he was small, so he could not learn martial arts.
