Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 463

Nicole suddenly paused.

She turned to look at Gabrielle. Seeing Gabrielle's firm and resolute look, Nicole finally felt relieved.

She had always been worried that something bad would happen to Samuel. However, Gabrielle's confident look revealed that she and Blair might know where Samuel was.

Besides, although Blair was a doctor, the background of the Hawk family was extremely complicated. It even had a lot to do with the commander of a certain military region. Therefore, as long as Blair helped and stood up for Samuel, Samuel would be safe.

At the thought that Samuel was still safe, Nicole finally felt relieved.

"Thank you."

Although she had no idea what Blair and Gabrielle had done for Samuel, she was quite grateful to them now.

Gabrielle was somewhat ashamed of her gratitude.

She whispered, "Don't thank me. There are some things we have to do. When he comes back, you'll understand everything."

"OK."

Nicole did not continue to ask.

It was enough to know that Samuel was doing well.

At present, the only thing she could do was to focus on her recovery. As for the situation Gabrielle had mentioned, she couldn't do anything about it.

Seeing that Nicole was a little sleepy, Gabrielle gave her a few more instructions before leaving.

Nicole fell asleep again. This time, she slept quite soundly and even wore a sweet smile.

Following Tim's instructions, Jacob returned to the Louis'.

Ballard was especially happy to see Jacob back. Jacob's mother was also overjoyed, and she wanted to get more intimate with his son, but Jacob appeared rather indifferent to her.

"I came back to deal with something. Tim said that you know where our secret room is. Is that true?"

Jacob directly looked at Ballard.

Ballard was puzzled. When did Tim get so close to Jacob? And he even told Jacob about the secret room. Could it be that they had made up?

Thinking of this possibility, Ballard was beside himself with joy.

"I know. I'll take you there."

"Jacob, you can stay for lunch. I'll have someone cook your favorite spicy chicken, okay?"

Looking at her son, Mrs. Louis wanted to hold him in her arms. Unfortunately, Jacob had been separated from her since childhood and now he treated her like a stranger.

Jacob shook his head and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't stay here for lunch."

With that, he ignored Mrs. Louis's expectant look and followed Ballard to the secret room.

After knowing the exact location, Jacob sent Swift inside.

Ballard didn't know what he was doing, but as long as Jacob could stay at home, he was quite happy.

"Hurry up and cook some delicious food. Whether Jacob will eat at home or not, you should prepare a big lunch in advance."

As soon as he said this, everyone in the family started to get preparations, and Mrs. Louis became even happier.

Jacob was interrogating Swift in the secret room, but this woman was too stubborn. Other than cursing Nicole and Samuel, she didn't say anything else.

When Tim returned, he couldn't help but frown when seeing everyone bustling around the kitchen.

"What's wrong? Could it be that my father will marry a new mistress?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Louis immediately put on an awkward look, and Ballard's face also darkened.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you back?"

"I am not even allowed to come back now, right?"

Tim's casual appearance and tone angered Ballard.

"Stop being so cynical. Jacob is back and he will have lunch with us. You'd better behave yourself."

"It turns out that Jacob has returned. No wonder the atmosphere is so lively. That makes sense. Since neither of my parents cares about me, I won't receive such a warm welcome when coming back home. Am I right, Mrs. Louis ?"

Tim's sarcasm made Mrs. Louis quite embarrassed.

"That's not the case. Didn't you ask Jacob to come back? I thought you..."

"Do you think that I've accepted your son and you? Stop daydreaming!"

Tim snorted and threw his coat onto the sofa. Then he rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen.

Ballard was quite sharp-eyed and he saw the wound on Tim's shoulder.

"You made trouble outside again, didn't you? I can see your wound. No matter what, you are at least the heir of the Louis family and my son. Can you stop bringing shame to our family? Every day, you either go to the pub or have fun at the whorehouse or casino. I guess you got into a fight with some hooligans this time, right? Did you get into any trouble? Don't ask me to clean up the mess for you!"

Louis was so furious that he picked up the ashtray and threw it fiercely at Tim.

Jacob came out at this moment and happened to see this scene. He subconsciously stepped forward to block the ashtray for Tim, but he himself was hit in the arm.

Mrs. Louis immediately screamed.

"Jacob, how are you? Why did you suddenly come out? Did you get hurt?"
