Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 368

Nicole was a little worried, but she knew that if she stayed, Audrey might not be able to say much.

Somehow she felt that something was wrong with Audrey today. Perhaps she had a difficult time with the Don family?

Perhaps her life had been too tough?

Nicole didn't know, but she couldn't ask.

She didn't want to ask about the Don family. She was afraid to hear that Mrs. Don adored Viola.

Nicole was sensitive about this kind of thing.

Therefore when Audrey asked her to leave, she left.

After she got in the car, she said to Samuel, "Do you think Minister Shaw is a little strange today?"

"No. What's the matter?"

Samuel was bewildered for he didn't know Audrey well enough.

"Nothing. Maybe I think too much. I feel she is down in the dumps today."

"Perhaps she thinks of your father."

Nicole nodded.

She felt sad at the way Audrey looked at Xander's photo.

"The greatest sadness in life is that your beloved one is dead. You love him, but he's gone. How are you going to pull through the next few decades?"

Nicole sighed.

She suddenly grabbed Samuel by the collar and said, "You have to promise that you will die after me. I don't want to live alone on the memories of you."

"What nonsense! We will grow old together. I promise you that I will not die before you."

"Remember your promise."

Nicole felt that their conversation might bring them bad luck, but she said it anyway. She had an uneasy feeling, but she didn't know what was wrong.

"Okay!"

Samuel didn't mind her nonsense and drove back.

Lucas and Zoe were staying at the Green's for two days, making the excuse of giving the private space to Samuel and Nicole. In fact, the old lady missed the children.

Mr. and Mrs. Bush had worked hard these years, so they went back home.

Olivia and Jacob were busy with something these days, going out early and coming home late, as if they had got over Tim. Although Tim did not apologize, Jacob did not seem to get in touch with the Louis family.

Everything seemed peaceful until Jason called, which completely disrupted Nicole's life.

Audrey had committed suicide!

Nicole froze.

She could remember well that Audrey came to her with the birthday gift a couple of days ago, and she could recall the deep affection in Audrey's eyes when she looked at Xander's photos on the gravestone. Why out of a sudden did she commit suicide?

Nicole was dumbfounded, and her tears uncontrollably coursed down her cheeks.

She had always thought that she wouldn't care about this woman, but now she knew that many emotions were buried deep down. She deliberately ignored this woman, afraid to get hurt. Now that something awful had happened, she felt a pang at her heart. This woman was her mother, whose suicide prostrated her with grief.

"How could this happen? She looked fine a few days ago!"

Nicole looked at Samuel with tearful eyes.

The news took Samuel by surprise as well.

Why did this tough woman choose to commit suicide?

"Stop crying. Let's go to the hospital and take a look."

Samuel did not know how to console Nicole.

They rushed to the hospital. Nicole panicked when she saw Jason.

"Uncle, how is my mother?"

As Nicole spoke, Mrs. Don suddenly looked back and saw her, letting out an angry roar suddenly.

"What on earth did you say to your mother? She was a different person after she came back. Did you know that she brought Viola with her when she committed suicide? She poisoned the food she cooked for Viola! I know that you hate Viola, but you can't ask your mother to die with your sister just because you don't like her, right?"

"Mom, stop!"

Jason was desperate with his mother.

Nicole froze.

"Asking my mother to die with Viola? What do you mean? What the hell is going on?"

Nicole grabbed Jason's sleeve.

Jason sighed and said, "I don't know what is wrong with Audrey. She has made quite some arrangements these two days, saying she's taking Viola back to the United States. Mom and I didn't pay attention. Today, Audrey made a meal for Viola alone, and they ate together. After that, something happened to them. The doctor said that the food was poisonous."

"How could this happen?"

Nicole was dumbfounded.

She knew that Audrey did not like Viola, but wasn't it too extreme of her to die with Viola?

Besides, she didn't think that Audrey would do such a thing.

Mrs. Don cried. "Audrey is a good daughter-in-law and Viola is a good child. Why can't you tolerate them?"
