Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 612

Her men did not dare to disobey Mrs. Green's orders. When they were about to lift Nicole up, Joseph suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at them. The frightening gaze even bore an uncanny resemblance to Samuel's.

They were slightly shocked and turned their looks to Mrs. Green in embarrassment.

Mrs. Green became even angrier.

"What? You don't want to leave? Then get out of the way and let these people carry this woman out!"

Joseph looked at Mrs. Green, motionless.

At the time, he probably couldn't understand why his grandmother, who had always doted on him, and his happy family, had changed suddenly.

He couldn't understand. He could only helplessly look at Mrs. Green, hoping that she would give him an explanation.

This was the first time Mrs. Green couldn't look directly into Joseph's eyes.

"I am your grandmother, the head of this family. Everyone must do what I say. A child like you can never understand. If you don't want to leave, then step aside. Nicole can't stay here anyway."

Seeing Mrs. Green so determined, the color drained gradually from Joseph's eyes.

His hopes and dependence on Mrs. Green gradually disappeared.

He didn't say anything, but held onto Nicole's hand tightly. He had made his attitude clear.

"Good for you! Joseph, you chose Nicole in the end, right? Fine. From today onwards, you are no longer a Green."

Her words upset him more.

When the men stepped forward to lift Nicole, he did not stop them. Instead, he stood up and walked out of the basement with Nicole.

In the meantime, Joseph fixed his gaze on Nicole. He looked at the blood on her, as if he saw Bruce lying in a pool of blood.

He trembled and shrank, but he didn't say a word. The way he held back his sadness moved everyone.

Mrs. Green watched them walk out of the house. She smashed everything around her out of anger, which woke Zoe up.

She quickly ran down. Instead of seeing Joseph, she saw her grandma losing her temper.

This was the first time Zoe had seen this. She hid behind a pillar and shyly asked, "Grandma, what happened?"

Mrs. Green suddenly turned around.

Seeing Zoe so timid reminded her of Nicole, which displeased her.

"Why did you come down?"

Zoe held the pillar tightly and said, "I'm looking for Joseph."

"There is no longer Joseph. You only have one brother, which is Lucas. And from today onwards, you two are named after the Green, not Bush. Do you understand?"

"Okay."

Zoe watched Mrs. Green with a frightened look and did not dare to ask why.

Right now, she only wanted her mother.

Grandma was too scary today!

"Grandma, where's Mommy? I want Mommy!"

"You don't have mommy anymore! Don't mention her name again!"

Zoe was dumbfounded by what Laurel said.

She paused for a moment and then cried out.

"I want Mommy! I want Mommy! Where's she? I want her!"

"Shut up! Stop crying! Why did you cry to anything? What else can you do? You're just like your useless mom. If you weren't Samuel's child, I would have dumped you out with your stupid mom."

Laurel got more irritated by Zoe's crying.

Zoe did not understand what she was talking, but she knew she was saying bad things about her and Nicole.

She had never been scolded since she was born. She was always loved and taken good care of.

Now her grandmother acted like another person. Zoe could not get it. She only cried instinctively.

"I want mom. I want mom!"

Afraid that Mrs. Green would be enraged by Zoe, the servant beside her stepped forward and picked up Zoe. She whispered, "Good Miss Zoe, stop crying, alright? Your mom is just out on some errands. Your grandma is in a bad mood. Shall I take you upstairs and get some rest?"

"I want mom!"

Zoe wouldn't listen to anyone. She just cried for Nicole.

Mrs. Green felt so annoyed with her crying.

"Lock her up in the basement! Don't let her out unless she becomes quite again."

The servant found it too cruel to obey.

"Miss Zoe is not well. And she is afraid of the dark. She would got psychological impacts being locked up in the basement."

"Nonsense! When did the Greens become so fragile? Joseph is just an exception. Zoe is Samuel's daughter! If she was that fragile, then let her rot in the basement. I don't like her anyway."

Hearing Laurel's last words, Zoe stop crying immediately.

She understood it when Laurel said she did not like her.

Zoe was shocked.

How could Grandma not like her?

Grandma cooked delicious food for her, spent days with her, and tucked her in, didn't she?

Why was it like this now?

"You're not my grandmother! You're an old witch, a bad person! Where did you hide my grandmother? Give her back!"
