Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 446

Samuel's phone suddenly rang, as if he was telepathic.

He subconsciously glanced at it, finding that it was the landline number of the Bush's. Samuel couldn't help but feel a little expectant and a little scared.

'Is that Nicole?'

If she asked him where he was, how should he answer?

Samuel hurriedly took out the laptop and pretended to be very busy. He even turned on the recording of the video call, and then took a deep breath and picked up the phone.

...

"Hello," Samuel said cautiously in a trembling voice.

"Daddy!"

Hearing Zoe's sweet voice, Samuel instantly became disappointed. But he still smiled and returned, "Baby, what's wrong? Are you missing Daddy?"

"That's right. Mommy said that you went abroad. But Daddy, you promised you would take us abroad. Why did you go alone? Daddy, you are a liar."

Zoe complained.

Samuel put on a wry smile.

If possible, he didn't want to go abroad now. It was a pity that he had to swallow his suffering.

"Daddy comes out for business. I will be back soon and then take you out for fun, okay?"

"Daddy, you are lying! You said so before, and now you make the same promise. Daddy, you are a liar!"

Zoe obviously did not buy Samuel's explanation.

Samuel felt sorry for letting Zoe down.

"Alright. It's my fault. I'm so sorry. Do you behave yourself at Grandma's house?"

"Yes, I do. I don't even bother Mommy, for she is sick," Zoe said sensibly.

...

"Is your Mommy sick?"

"Yes, a woman in a white coat comes to our house and helps put Mommy on a drip. Olivia also comes to take care of Mommy. Grandma told me that Mommy was sick and that I should not disturb Mommy. I'm as good as gold. Daddy, does Mommy have a cold? When will you come back? Mommy misses you when you are away, and I miss you, too."

Zoe's words made Samuel somewhat worried.

"Are you sure your Mommy is put on a drip?"

"How can I be wrong? I heard from Olivia that three bottles of intravenous fluids would be injected into Mommy. The female doctor just left and said that she would come back later. Mommy is so pitiful. Her face is pale, and she keeps sleeping."

Hearing it, Samuel couldn't sit still any longer.

"What is Mommy doing now?"

"She should be resting. Grandma is cooking delicious food. The female doctor asked Grandma to prepare medicinal diet for Mommy. Daddy, what is it? Can I eat it? It sounds delicious."

Zoe was interested in eating.

However, Samuel only cared about 'medicinal diet.'

Blair told Samuel that Nicole was having a period.

Why would she be put on a drip?

Samuel got worried.

"Zoe, I'll hang up and give your Mommy a call, OK?"

"Alright. Mommy's sick now. I won't compete with Mom for you."

Zoe returned like an adult, and then hung up.

Samuel hurriedly called Nicole, but he hung up after he got through.

What could he say to Nicole now?

He couldn't promise her anything, and he couldn't go back to see her. Hearing Nicole's voice, he didn't know if he could bear it.

This was the first time Samuel felt that it was so difficult to make a phone call.

He thought for a moment and called Olivia.

When Olivia heard the phone ring, she was afraid that Nicole, who was still sleeping, would be disturbed, so she hurriedly took the phone and went to the balcony.

"Hello?"

"Olivia, this is Samuel," Samuel said directly.

...

Olivia was slightly shocked and asked, "Why do you call me? Shouldn't you call Nicole?"

"I heard from Zoe that she was asleep, so I don't want to disturb her. What's going on? Why is she put on a drip? Is she sick?"

Samuel's sounded extremely worried.

Noticing that he cared so much about Nicole, Olivia whispered, "Do you love your wife? If you do, why do you go abroad? Is business so important for you? Can't someone else replace you? Why do you have to go out at this time?"

Hearing Olivia's condemnation, Samuel did not justify himself.

"What happens to Nicole?"

Nicole went back to the bed as she was told. Hearing Olivia's question, Nicole said, "What did he say?"

"Nothing. He just let me take good care of you. He said that he would hurry back as soon as possible. I told him to come back and let Jacob replace him, but he didn't agree. I don't mean to upset you. The Green family is so rich. Why does Samuel take that amount of money seriously? If he really loves you, he should have flown back."

Listening to Olivia's complaint, Nicole felt somewhat disappointed.

Nicole whispered, "Maybe Jacob can't solve the problem over there."

"You are putting in a good word for Samuel. What can't Jacob solve? Jacob has worked for Samuel for so long. To put it bluntly, outsiders think Jacob can represent Samuel. Maybe Samuel is up to something secret outside. I just feel that he's hiding something from you."

"No way. Samuel is not that kind of person. Besides, I'm just having my period. Isn't that too pretentious to ask him to come back from abroad?"

Nicole could not help but excuse Samuel.

Then Olivia said angrily, "Look at you. You are obviously worried about him and missing him. Why don't you just ask him to come back coquettishly? There are so many people in the Green family. I don't believe that Samuel has to do everything personally. And I've heard that there's nothing wrong with Samuel's company. He said he went abroad for business. Who knows what he is doing?"

"Don't talk nonsense," Nicole hurriedly replied.

...

Since Nicole was so stubborn, Olivia returned with anger, "Why don't you call Vincent and ask if something really happens to the overseas branch?"

"I believe in Samuel. Alright. I know you do it for my good. But Samuel won't lie to me."

Just as she was speaking, Nicole's phone suddenly rang.

"Look, he calls me."

Nicole smiled and picked up the phone. She thought that it was Samuel, so she was somewhat excited. But when she saw the phone number, she was frustrated.

It was Vincent.

Olivia snorted coldly, reluctant to say anything.

Nicole could not continue arguing with Olivia, so she answered the phone.

"Vincent, what's the matter?"

Nicole tried her best to make her voice sound normal.

Vincent anxiously said, "Nicole, where is my brother? Why can't I get through to him? I need him urgently."

"Samuel has gone abroad to deal with the overseas branch. Didn't he tell you?"

Nicole was slightly shocked and asked subconsciously.

Samuel hurriedly returned, "He has gone abroad. Really? Nothing happens to the overseas branch. All the executives of the venture capital companies reported the situation to me just now. I'm about to ask my brother what we should do next. But I cannot contact him."

Nicole's face darkened.
