Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 662

"What do you mean, Mrs. Green?"

Brian asked at once when he noticed Samuel's expression. He was afraid that Nicole would go back on her word.

Samuel coughed and said, "My wife means that money is not an issue. We'll invest twice as much as Soseph did."

Hearing his words, Soseph looked extremely angry. Nicole gave an elegant smile instead.

Brian was in charge of the tourism in this place, so he was certainly happy about that. He said immediately, "Oh, how forthright and generous you are, Mrs. Green."

"As long as I can kick her out of the field of tourist industry, money is never a problem."

Nicole gestured and Samuel interpreted what she meant.

Soseph stood up with a jerk and stared at Nicole with a sullen look. She enunciated each word clearly, "Nicole, don't go too far. Every dog has his day, and every man his hour. Aren't you afraid that something unexpected will finally happen to you?"

"If anything happens to my wife, do you think you can just leave Bordeaux and get away with it? Soseph, you'd better pray for my wife."

Samuel's face darkened at once.

Soseph snorted coldly. She slammed the door and left with a scowl.

Since there was an awkward silence in the room, Brian tried to break the ice. He said, "Mr. Green and Mrs. Green, many hands make light work. Why not cooperate and make more money? Besides, since Soseph's investment has indeed contributed to the development here, it won't be appropriate for us to withdraw her money now. We are all friends. What about we meeting halfway and doing what Mrs. Green had said at first. I think that's a good idea."

"You think? But my wife is upset."

Samuel smiled and said with a casual air, "Well, I know it's of no use to talk to a nobody like you. I'll just gonna call your director. I remember his name is Hank Steele. Am I right?"

Brian was stunned when he heard that Samuel had accurately said the name of the director of Tourism Bureau. He forced a smile at once, and said, "Mr. Green, let's go back and talk about it first. Is that okay?"

"Sure!"

Samuel replied without any hesitation.

The others hastened to ask the waiter to serve the dishes, but Samuel stopped them.

"It's fine. We'll go out for a walk."

With that, he left with Nicole.

Seeing them walk out of the room, the others also left one after another.

After she came out with Samuel, Nicole felt much better. It was really good to see Soseph's face twisted in anger.

Samuel noticed that Nicole was feeling refreshed and in a good mood. He said with a smile, "Happy now?"

"Yes... but will you really allow me to invest if Soseph does quit?"

Nicole gestured to him quickly.

"Of course," Samuel said with affection.

Nicole was slightly surprised by his attitude and then turned her face away.

"Are you okay? You know, as long as you're happy, I don't care how much I spend. Money means nothing to me."

Nicole replied with a nod.

They two trod casually and saw that there seemed to be a market not far away. Nicole's spirits rose at once.

Noticing Nicole's interest, Samuel walked towards it before she spoke a word.

It was a jade market where many jade products were displayed and sold. Most of them were emeralds whose color and transparency were quite different.

Naturally, Samuel turned up his nose at these products of poor quality.

"If you like jade, I can take you to a better jade market."

"No, it's okay. We can also have fun here."

Nicole smiled at him and strolled around leisurely.

She took a look at each stall and chatted with its owner. Although it was a bit difficult to make herself clear, she was very happy.

Looking at her smiling face shining in the setting sun, Samuel suddenly felt complacent.

They had walked around for a while, but it seemed that Nicole still wanted to continue.

Samuel whispered, "What about us investing some money here so that you can see the jade here every day?"

"No, I just like walking around like this."

Nicole said with a smile.

They two spotted a pavilion and sat down there.

Seeing Nicole's face drenched with sweat, Samuel said in a gentle tone, "Sit here and take a rest for a while. I'll buy some fruits and water for you."

"Okay!"

Nicole nodded.

After Samuel left, Nicole saw that an old lady and her grandchild were playing a short distance away.

She watched them playing under the setting sun and suddenly felt warm inside. If possible, she hoped that she could also lead a life like that when she grew old.

At this moment, a man and a woman walked into the pavilion and sat down next to Nicole.

"I'm worn out."

The woman said with a delicate and tender voice.

Nicole didn't say anything but subconsciously moved to the side.

Just at that moment, the man walked up to Nicole and said, "You. Sit there."

Nicole was stunned for a moment. She looked left and right, and found that she was the only possible person that he was talking to now.

The woman also spoke.

"Hey, are you deaf? Can't you hear us? Can't you see that we need two seats?"

Nicole paused for a moment, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

If they had spoken in a polite way, perhaps she would have moved. After all, she understood that a young couple always liked sitting together. She herself had had a similar experience. However, these two people were very rude and arrogant, so she felt a little reluctant to offer her seat.

Nicole glanced at them and then pretended that she didn't see nor hear them, just like a person who was deaf and blind.
