Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 354

"Come up!"

Seeing her innocent face, Samuel was even angrier.

"Samuel, what's wrong with you today?" Lucas frowned unhappily.

"Everything is wrong with me, so you'd better leave me alone."

Now Samuel couldn't be angrier. No one was pleasing to the eye.

Lucas wanted to continue, but was stopped by Nicole.

"Good boy, go to your room now."

"Mommy, don't spoil him. How can a man shout at a woman? That isn't what a gentleman should do."

Lucas’ words were like invisible daggers. Samuel heard it clearly.

The fury gripped him again.

When was a little kid allowed to mock his own father?

Seeing Samuel seemed to be furious, Nicole said to Lucas in haste, "Be nice. Go back to your room now and think about it."

Lucas knew that Nicole was defending him, so he didn't bother to argue with Samuel. He whispered to Nicole, "Shout out if he is being bad to you. Grandpa and grandma are here. We'll all back you up. He wouldn't dare do it in front of us."

Nicole somehow wanted to laugh.

Why did she feel that in front of Lucas, she, a mother, was like a child, while her son was like a little big man?

"Get it. Go to your room now."

Nicole sent Lucas away. Then she put down the mango, washed her hands, and then lifted her feet up the stairs.

Seeing her taking her time, Samuel knew she knew nothing about that picture, but he just felt uncomfortable because it seemed she didn't care about it at all.

"You should work harder to be a good wife. Didn't you see my face was full of wounds? Why didn't you come up and put on some ointment for me?"

Seeing Nicole coming up, Samuel's tone somewhat softened.

Nicole felt Samuel was more like a child goofing around, making it impossible for her to talk to him.

"I'd love to, but I have no way, Mr. Green. You even rebuffed the offer of your sweetest daughter. Why should I do it again?"

Samuel was too embarrassed to reply Nicole.

Finally, he said angrily, "I'm in pain! Just do it. Do you want a scar left on my face?"

"Don't worry, it will do no harm. Besides, you don't rely on your face for a living."

Saying that, Nicole took out the medicine kit and began to apply medicine on him.

Her movements were very gentle, and her eyes were filled with pity.

Samuel's frantic heart suddenly calmed down.

"Whom have you done that to?"

Samuel couldn't help but ask.

After asking, he immediately regretted.

What was wrong with him?

Why did he always think about that picture?

Nicole paused for a moment, then tilted her head and said seriously, "Three."

"Three?"

Samuel's voice suddenly rose, startling Nicole.

"What's so strange? My father, you, and a little boy who I saved when I was young."

Hearing Nicole's words, Samuel was relieved again.

"Oh."

Nicole felt Samuel was really strange today.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing."

Samuel did not answer her question. Instead, he whispered, "What little boy? I never hear this story."

"That was a long time ago. I almost forgot. Someone brought it up last time."

Although Nicole did not say who it was, Samuel knew it right away when a frown flickered away from her face.

Was it Tim?

He thought to himself, but he didn't ask.

"So you were a heroine when you were a child."

"If you say so. I don't know if it was a coincidence. I saved him in a warehouse in the suburbs. Then, the warehouse just exploded. I was so scared that I ran home and didn't go out for a few days. Only after my father told me that I was safe, I went out again."

Nicole said vaguely, and Samuel knew what it was.

Back then, everyone knew Tim was kidnapped. Of course, he knew it, too. He just didn't expect this history.

No wonder Tim was so persistent towards Nicole. So that explained it.

But the thought of it depressed Samuel again.

"Stay away from that man."

"I will, after what he did to Olivia. He didn't even have the courage to admit it. I won't see him again and I won't forgive him."

Nicole was sad, but thinking of how Jacob and Olivia were reconciled just now, she happily grabbed Samuel's hand and said, "Jacob and Olivia are reconciled."

"Okay."

Samuel didn't comment it, but seeing Nicole's happy smile, his heart gradually warmed up.

"You worry about everyone else but me. Just concentrate on me, okay?"

Samuel said discontentedly.

"You've changed. You never frown when it's worse than that. And you even could talk and laugh with me. Look at you now. Is this the same Samuel I used to know?" Nicole said.
