Chapter 1918

My Ex-Wife and Kids Came In Like A Wrecking Ball Chapter 1918-“Sophie Jacobs?” Byron put away the waterproof blanket and asked on the side.

Rosalie nodded with a smile on the corner of her mouth.” It’s okay, I can handle it. She can’t bully me anymore.”

“Mhm.” Byron was not worried.

His wife’s current state of mind had completely changed.

Even without the Lawrence family name, she was still powerful enough in her own right.

After packing up, Rosalie went back to the living room of the manor. She saw that Melody and the chefs were busy making dinner, so she also went into the kitchen to help.

Lucian and Nox shared interesting stories about their college with Byron, while Estie began to tinker with her traditional costume design.

Not long after dinner, Lucas arrived in a frenzy.

Byron was also surprised by his frantic manner and hurriedly asked what happened.

Lucas was flustered and upset. He simply disclosed everything as there were no other outsiders present.

“Byron, my mother’s hysteria has become more and more serious recently. She has turned violent. I don’t know what to do. I’m here to ask my sister-in-law if there’s any way to help her!”

Byron and Rosalie looked at each other in astonishment.

Lucas had never mentioned anything about his mother’s hysteria before.

Even Benedict and Melody hurried over to ask about Lucas’ mother, Tamsine Lane.

“Hysteria? Why have we never heard you talk about it?

Benedict thought about it and immediately got a little angry. “Did you and your father deliberately conceal this from us for many years? Why would you hide such a thing from us?”

Lucas silently admitted it.

Then, he talked about Tamsine’s long-term illness.

Hysteria, which most people would consider a mental illness, was a disorder caused by some severe mental trigger.

Dissociative symptoms would often appear. Linder dissociative symptoms, the patient would easily lose themself. They would develop severe doubts, drastic paranoia, and unclear identifications. In the transition state, their temperament would suddenly change drastically, and they would become completely unlike their normal self.

“My mother’s illness appeared about ten years ago. Later, she managed to suppress it through psychological counseling and some drugs, so life was relatively normal after that. At one point, we all thought that her mental illness had been completely cured. However, when my parents traveled to Africa with me a while ago, something unexpected happened and it triggered my mother’s illness. It began to get out of control again.”

Byron’s heart skipped a beat. ‘No wonder when I picked Lucas up at the airport that day, something felt off about him.’

Rosalie was also taken aback. She recalled, ‘Byron mentioned that he never expected Lucas to become a psychiatrist. This seems to be the root cause.”

The reason why he chose to major in psychology was because of his mother’s illness.

“What happened in Africa?” Melody could not help but ask.

What stimulation was so strong that caused Tamsine’s mental illness to flare up again?

Lucas’ face suddenly became gloomy. His eyes kept flickering as if he was resisting to recall the scene at that time.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally said, “It’s me. I killed someone!”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

Rosalie and Melody were women, after all, and they would naturally be overwhelmed. Their faces were blank for a long time.

Byron was the fastest to recover and immediately asked,” Tell me quick, under what circumstances did you make that decision? You must’ve been in danger, right? If you had murdered with malicious intent, how could you have come back?”

These words seemed to be directed at Rosalie and Melody.

The two also came back to their senses. Their eyes focused on Lucas as they waited for his answer.

“Yes, it was a robbery! My parents and I went out to watch wild animals in the savannah. On the way there, we met some local gangsters who robbed us. At that time, we cooperated obediently and gave them all our money.

However, the gang leader wanted to take my mother away. So, as a last resort, I shot…”
