Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 207

“Where did this thing come from?”

 

Samuel grabbed the thing in Nicole’s hands.

 

It was actually a small tracker.

 

Although Nicole didn't know what this thing was for, she said heavily, “I don't know either. After leaving the sanatorium, I only went to Fallen Angel Club. I didn’t go anywhere along the way.”

 

“Fallen Angel Club is our family’s Night Elf Empire. It’s impossible that the people there would track you, unless someone did something with Jacob's car.”

 

Samuel deepened his gaze.

 

Jacob was always on the road. Perhaps he was nailed, and his car was also targeted. Thinking of this, Samuel’s eyes sank again.

 

Nicole was also feeling a little nervous.

 

“Perhaps it’s not because of Jacob.”

 

“Could it be Finn? Why?”

 

Samuel's rhetorical question made Nicole somewhat speechless.

 

There were always dangers hidden around them. Nicole was a little worried.

 

Who had been targeting them?

 

Samuel felt that they shouldn't stay here for long, especially after he found the tracking device on Nicole.

 

He quickly got out of the car and put the tracker in the stone atoll beside him. Then, he pulled Nicole into the car and whispered, “We need to get out of here quickly.”

 

Nicole nodded, agreeing to his words. The two quickly fastened their seat belts and drove down the mountain.

 

When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, Samuel discovered that there were a lot of people down there—people from the military, and some others.

 

It seemed impossible to drive past there.

 

Samuel pondered for a moment before saying decisively, “Let’s get off the car and go up the mountain.”

 

“What?”

 

Nicole was a little surprised, but she didn’t say anything. She followed Samuel out of the car and walked up the mountain step by step.

 

Samuel chose a different path, which no one had ever walked before.

 

After the two of them walked for a while, Nicole felt tired.

 

She was wearing high heels. Climbing the mountain was simply torture to her. However, in order not to drag down Samuel, she did not say anything until she could not stand it. She panted and said, “Let's rest for a while.”

 

Samuel stopped.

 

It was night, and he couldn't see Nicole's face clearly, but he could sense a faint smell of blood.

 

“Are you injured?”

 

“No. It’s just that my feet hurt.”

 

Nicole only felt a burning pain in her heels, but she didn’t feel any liquid flowing out.

 

When Samuel heard this, he noticed that she was wearing high heels today.

 

He hurriedly took off his coat and laid it on a stone, then let Nicole sit on it.

 

Samuel knelt on one knee and lifted one of Nicole's feet. When he was about to take off Nicole's high heels, Nicole suddenly cried out in pain.

 

“It hurts.”

 

“I'm afraid it’s skinned.’

 

Samuel slowly took off her shoes and found that it was as he had expected. Nicole's fair feet were now swollen and red, with traces of blood oozing out from the wounds.

 

He felt extremely worried.

 

He took off Nicole's shoes and held them in hand. Then, he said to Nicole, “Come up, I'll carry you.”

 

“The road is rugged. It will be very difficult for you to carry me on your back. It doesn’t matter. I can walk.”

 

Nicole didn't want to be a burden to Samuel.

 

Samuel whispered, “If you continue walking, your feet will be crippled. Hurry up and come up.”

 

“But you...”

 

“Come up!”

 

It sounded like Samuel was giving an order. Nicole went helpless. She could only climb onto Samuel's back.

 

His back was firm, making Nicole feel safe. In the night, Samuel continued walking as normal. His steps were firm, except that he was carrying Nicole on his back.

 

“Take out my phone and call Mike.”

 

With that, Nicole put her hand into Samuel's shirt pocket.

 

Her small hands were a little cold. When she touched Samuel's shirt, Samuel's body went somewhat stiff.

 

Nicole knew that she might have touched Samuel's sensitive area, so she didn't dare to make any other moves. She quickly took out the phone and called Mike.

 

Mike was in the gym. When he heard the phone ring and saw that it was Samuel, he directly picked it up.

 

“Sam, are you home?”

 

“To what home? There are people blocking our way down the mountain. What road were you picking?”

 

Samuel knew that this matter had nothing to do with Mike, but he said that on purpose.

 

Mike was immediately depressed.

 

“Impossible. That back mountain belongs to the military. Other than me, no one is allowed to enter. And of course, no one would have the guts to block my way.”

 

“Are you saying that I'm teasing you? It's cold here. Nicole and I were wandering around the mountains. I wonder if we could meet anyone. Why would I joke with you?”

 

As Samuel spoke, the cold wind blew into Mike's ears through the microphone.

 

He immediately became nervous.

 

“Where are you? I'll pick you up.”

 

“Don't bother. Just drive the Jeep down and lure them away. Nicole and I will find a way to go back. The key is in the car.”

 

“Sure. Be careful”

 

Mike hung up the phone and quickly left the house.

 

Samuel carried Nicole on his back for a while before realizing that he had actually lost his way.

 

The mountain was huge. At night, the temperature here was relatively low. He could feel that Nicole was trembling slightly.

 

“Let's find a place to rest. Or, we can call someone to pick us up.”

Samuel could get by on his own, but with Nicole here, he had to be more considerate.

 

Nicole was not in great health. What happened to her a few days ago had made her body gone worse. She had not recovered yet. If she caught a cold again...Samuel didn’t dare to think about the consequences.

 

Nicole was already shivering from the cold.
