Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 228

“Nicole, are you deliberately trying to pick a quarrel with me? Do you know how many people are inside and outside here? Do you think you can take your parents away by yourself?”

Seeing that Nicole had rejected her kindness, Charlotte couldn’t help but put a long face.

She knew Allen, so she wanted Nicole to leave first. Once Nicole was alive, Allen might even be afraid and kept Samuel and her child alive.

She didn’t believe that Nicole wouldn’t understand such a simple truth. Why did she want to kick against the pricks?

Nicole did not want to treat Allen as an enemy. No matter what Allen did, she would let Samuel solve it. She even felt that once she did not show up, many things could still retain the same.

But now, Charlotte’s betrayal had completely awakened her.

Such self-deception was useless.

Your cowardliness won’t stop bad people, and they would not pity you. They would take more.

For five years, her failure to protect Zoe was a scar on her heart. Now, if Samuel and Zoe were in danger again, would she be considered as a human?

Charlotte looked at Nicole and whispered, “Nicole, I’m sorry. I took you as my friend for the past five years, but there’s a saying that those who have different belief should not work together. Now that you are in Allen’s side, I won’t say anything, but I won’t leave today. I’m taking my parents away from here, and you can’t stop me!”

“What? You’ve been in the Seapolis City for a few months, and you have the ability? Or do you think you can fight against me? Nicole, I advise you not to fight a hopeless battle. Let alone the people outside, you cannot even fight against me.”

Then, she took off her coat.

For five years, Nicole was familiar with her, so she knew that Charlotte was an expert in judo, and she was nothing, but now Nicole did not fear at all.

She sighed, “Let’s go.”

The moment she said, Charlotte’s expression changed.

“You brought someone? Impossible! No one can enter here! This is a high-end residential area!”

However, Nicole did not say anything.

She came to her parents’ side and inspected them. After discovering that they were unscathed, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, a disorderly sound came from outside.

Charlotte’s face was even longer.

She suddenly wanted to capture Nicole, but Nicole took out her gun and aimed it at Charlotte.

“I know you’re skillful, and I know I can’t defeat you. But Charlotte, don’t force me to do it.”

Nicole’s posture of holding the gun was accurate, and her hands were not trembling.

Charlotte recognized that the gun Nicole held was a small AK47.

“You know how to use a gun? You have a gun! Nicole, it seems like neither I nor Allen have underestimated you.”

“You underestimated me. When I was reborn from that fire five years ago, I told myself that I must never let myself be oppressed. I didn’t expect that those who oppressed me were you and Allen, two of my best friends. I knew what Allen did to Zoe just now, but I didn’t ask him for reasons in person. Don’t you understand? I don’t want to be your enemy. But why do you insist on oppressing me? Why do you involve my parents in this? I don’t know what other secrets Allen has, but you don’t know all of me. So, Charlotte, don’t force me.”

Nicole’s eyes were cold without the used warmth. She looked like a stranger now.

Charlotte had an illusion that she really understood Nicole.

“I don’t believe you will shoot me. You’re so kind and even cowardly. If Allen and I didn’t help you over the past five years, you wouldn’t be able to live well. That’s why you wouldn’t shoot me, let alone handle Allen! Nicole, I know you too well.”

“Is that so?”

Nicole sneered and directly pulled the trigger.

The gun had been specially processed with a muffler. Charlotte looked at Nicole in disbelief with a gunshot. She fell to the ground and there was a wound on her shoulder that was bleeding.

The pain slowly spread out, leaving her powerless.

“What did you add to the bullet?”

“Anesthetic!”

Nicole’s eyes still hadn’t changed, and her movements hadn’t changed much.

“Do you think I was unprepared? Do you think I’m not wary of you? Maybe you used to pretend well, but you lost on luck. I asked a friend to look for you, but you said you didn’t know me, which made me suspicious. Afterwards, I called you and you didn’t answer. Then, you called me and said that you were kidnapped. Although you did pretend well, Charlotte, tell me which kidnapper would leave a phone for you to ask for help? And you didn’t call the police. Isn’t it a trap for me? I was stupid and innocent to never guard against you and shared everything to you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have intelligence.”

When Nicole said these, pain appeared in her eyes.

“I never wanted to be like this with you, but why do you force me? If it’s just me, I can give you my life, but you shouldn’t use your kindness to wantonly hurt the people around me. You know that what I care about the most is my parents and my child, but you hurt them. Zoe is so young, and she doesn’t understand anything. She hasn’t even left the hospital. She doesn’t know what the outside world looks like, but you can hurt her. When you hurt her, did you ever think that we were friends?”

Nicole’s eyes became teary.

Her heart ached!

Even though the heartache was almost the same as that of past, she didn’t want to show it now.

To people who worth it, you can do whatever you want, but to people like Allen and Charlotte, your emotions and contribution were worthless.

Charlotte wanted to say something, but she could not withstand the effects of the medicine on her shoulder and fainted.
