Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 230

Nicole felt as if her heart was torn apart.

 

Tears rolled down her cheeks.

 

“Let's go, lady.”

 

Finn knew she was upset, but there was nothing he could do. They were at the dock. If they were too eye-catching, Zoe and the others could be at risk.

 

Nicole suppressed her sorrow, nodded, and followed Finn out of the dock.

 

“Where are we going?”

 

“Where Samuel is.”

 

Nicole knew it was useless for her to continue hiding.

 

This war which had started because of her was bound to end by her.

 

Nicole asked Finn to stop at the Fallen Angel Club. She got off and drove her own car to Samuel's place.

 

When Allen heard Charlotte was injured and unconscious, he knew something might have happened to her.

 

He was anxious, but Samuel kept pestering him, making him unable to get away.

 

Just as they were about to fight, Secretary Cole ran over and said to Allen, “Mr. Brook, our factory in the north caught fire due to unknown causes.”

 

Allen shot his gaze at Samuel.

 

Samuel's eyes turned cold.

 

“Did you do it?”

 

“I don’t know what you're talking about.”

 

Samuel felt uneasy when he knew Nicole went to see Charlotte alone, but he couldn't go with her, so he asked Jacob to create a little chaos, hoping to buy Nicole some time so that she could leave safely.

 

Now that he heard Secretary Cole's words, Samuel knew his plan had worked.

 

Allen wished he could kill Samuel now. Unfortunately, with the reporters here, he could do nothing.

 

They were deadlocked.

 

The next moment Jacob came with his men.

 

“Mr. Green.”

 

Seeing Jacob's men, Allen became even more dumbfounded.

 

“Go check up on Charlotte in the villa, now.”

 

Allen sent Secretary Cole away.

 

Viola saw Samuel in the crowd. Before she could step forward, she thought of her disfigured face and felt resentful.

 

How pitiful her face was disfigured at this very moment!

 

Her dream lover was right in front of her, but she couldn't stand beside him in public.

 

Allen looked at Samuel and sneered. “You're a crafty man.”

 

“I'm flattered. I can't compare with you.”

 

Samuel sneered too.

 

“Do you still remember our cooperation?”

 

Allen suddenly mentioned the car cooperation case.

 

Samuel, not knowing Allen's intentions, said coldly, “If I recall correctly, the Brook Group has withdrawn this case. Moreover, the ownership of Catherine's design has been taken back by the Brooks. Now you're planning to cooperate again?”

 

Allen smiled nonchalantly and said, “What cooperation are we talking about? The blueprints were designed by Catherine. Although we have the blueprints back, Catherine has been kept by you. What a perfect plan.”

 

“Don't worry, Mr. Brook. The blueprints returned to the Brook Group will never appear in the Greens’ Eternal Group.”

 

Suddenly, Nicole appeared from the crowd and walked toward them.

 

When Allen saw Nicole, he was astonished.

 

Though he knew his plan had failed, he didn't expect Nicole to come here, and he didn't expect her to be so quick.

 

Samuel also frowned when he saw Nicole.

 

Didn't she know how dangerous this place was?

 

What was she doing here?

 

Samuel and Allen walked toward Nicole simultaneously.

 

Nicole did not look at Samuel. Instead, she looked straight at Allen and said with a smile, “Long time no see, Mr. Brook.”

 

The address froze Allen.

 

He realized that although Nicole was smiling, her smile was not genuine.

 

There was a trace of coldness and alienation in her eyes.

 

Nicole hadn't looked at him in that way even when she had been brought from the Fallen Angel Club to the villa to be imprisoned. Now her gaze made Allen retreat.

 

What did she find?

 

Or did Charlotte say something?
