Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 701

"..."

Maia blushed. Her cheeks were as red as an apple, tempting Tim.

He swallowed unconsciously.

Having dated so many women, it was the first time he had such a magical feeling.

"Don't stare at me!"

Maia was embarrassed. Tim's gaze made her even more embarrassed that she couldn't even lift her head.

Tim turned away, his heart pounding so violently that it would jump out of his throat any time.

They were breathing heavily and the vibe was strange.

Neil didn't know whether to interrupt them or no.

He cleared his throat in embarrassment.

...

Realizing Neil was still in the room, Maia's face turned redder.

Tim returned to his usual self. He asked, "When are you leaving? When you are away, who will look after Maia?"

Neil glanced at Maia and said in an undertone, "I asked another doctor to take over my job. Don't worry. He's an expert and Maia only needs to get some rest."

"Maia needs a good doctor. Please, do find someone trustworthy. I'll be grateful to you."

Neil was surprised.

"Are you a friend of Samuel?"

Tim did not answer.

Listening to their conversation, Maia finally knew why Nicole came here.

"Isn't Lady Bush here for the contract?"

"Of course not. Not everyone is a workaholic who only cares about contracts and making money. Silly girl."

Tim rubbed her head, picked up the thermos and said, "I'm going to get you some hot water. If there's anything you need, call the nurse. Don't push yourself too hard. Do you hear me?"

"Yeah."

Maybe because Tim was being too gentle, or because she was still embarrassed. Maia was very obedient, like she had never been. She avoided looking into his eyes. Thinking about this, Tim could help but smile faintly.

Neil didn't want to be the third wheel. It was better for him to leave.

"Well, if there's any problem, the next doctor will deal with it. I've already informed him. I'm going back with Nicole tomorrow morning. Have some good rest and do what you have been told. Okay?"

"Sure. Thank you, Neil."

Maia nodded.

Neil left the ward.

Maia was left alone, feeling a little lonely.

Recalling the accident, she was scared. If something really had happened to her, who would have taken care of her brother?

At the very thought, she called her brother. When she was certain he was alright, she hung up.

When Tim came back and saw Maia talking to her brother, he suddenly turned gloomy.

If Maia did not recover, she might end up being infertile, which too cruel for a woman.

He could marry her and give her a family. But he couldn't give her a child.

Thinking of this, Tim was extremely guilty.

If it hadn't been for him, Maia would have had many possibilities. But now...

Tim gritted his teeth, walked in, and took a deep breath. He said with a smile, "You have a younger brother, don't you?"

"How do you know that?"

Maia was surprised.

Tim said, "Your resume. It's in the company. I was with Nicole when she was classifying profiles. I saw yours."

"Oh, I see. I have a brother. He is handsome. Unlike me and my family, he's very tall. He is very outstanding."

Speaking of her brother, Maia became excited, her face filled with pride.

Tim was somewhat jealous of her brother when seeing her expression.

"Have you ever thought of going abroad for study?"

Maia paused for a moment before saying, "Perhaps a few years later. These years are important to my brother. When he graduates and finds a job, I'll go abroad."

"How old will you be then? You'll get married and have children when he finds a job."

"Getting married and having children isn't the only way out for women," Maia retorted.

She blushed in excitement, adding some color to her face.

Tim found Maia very pretty.

"Does he plan to join the army?"

He knew Maia admired soldiers, so he had a guess.

Stunned, she suddenly grabbed his arm excitedly and asked, "Can you help him? He wants to join the army. But I don't have money or connection. I can't help him. My brother said that he wants to attend the police training school. But..."

"But what? Your parents are martyrs. Your brother should have a priority."

Maia smiled bitterly and said, "You don't understand. My parents died during a top-secret mission, which involved three million dollars. The money disappeared upon their death. Until now, they were still suspected of absconding with the money. So, they weren't given martyr titles. My brother and I don't have any privilege. Instead, we are restricted in many ways. Sometimes I really feel that my parents are wronged."

As Maia said, her eyes turned red and she was about to cry.

Not knowing such a tragic thing happened to her, Tim was astonished.
