Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 725

Tim's silence made Alexia become flustered.

"Mr. Tim, I swear to God that I am telling the truth,"

Alexia said in an urgent tone.

Hearing her voice, Tim realized that he was distracted. Then he asked, "When I was drunk, what did Maia do to protect me from being taken away by you?"

Alexia was shocked.

She never thought that Tim would ask about this.

"She just sprang at you and hugged you tightly," Alexia answered.

"Can you remember exactly her actions? Show me."

Hearing his question, Luke also felt a little strange.

"Mr. Tim, what's wrong with this?"

"Shut up! I'm asking her,"

Tim said in a cold voice.

Luke immediately closed his mouth hard and moved aside.

Knowing that Tim really wanted to know about this, Alexia scrambled in her mind to recall what happened and asked the two bodyguards to cooperate with her to reproduce the whole process.

Tim watched but didn't say anything. Then he continued to ask, "When you hit her, her first reaction was to protect which part of her body?"

Alexia thought for a long time before she answered, "Her first reaction was to protect her stomach. But she paused and finally covered her head."

"Did she curl herself up?"

"No, that's why I think she's a fool. Everyone knows that curling up body into a ball can reduce injuries. But she didn't. Furthermore, when she was kicked down to the ground, she just leaned back on the floor. You know what happened afterwards."

Although Alexia didn't know why Tim asked about this, she told him everything she knew, hoping that he would ask Luke to release her. She was afraid that she would die under Luke's torment.

Tim frowned.

According to Alexia's description, Maia's response was strange. The reaction of a self-defender shouldn't be like this. He doubted whether Maia had deliberately injured herself.

But why would she do that?

What was her purpose?

Tim couldn't figure it out.

He became silent again. Seeing this, Alexia said anxiously, "Mr. Tim, what I said is true! It's true!"

"Luke, don't torment her anymore."

Luke nodded.

"You're lucky that Mr. Tim spared your life. But when you get back, you'd better behave yourself. If I know that you still want to escape, I'll teach you lesson," Luke threatened.

Alexia trembled as she heard his words. But she also felt relieved that she wouldn't be tortured.

After that, Tim left and called his man, "Gather all the information of Maia's experience, especially whether she had got ill or got any help."

"Alright, Mr. Tim."

After hanging up the phone, Tim's heart was slowly sinking.

He wasn't someone who could be easily defrauded. He didn't know what he should do if Maia really cheated him.

Tim lost in deep thought.

If it were in the past, he wouldn't hesitate to punish anyone. But he thought Maia had always protected him and this time she was hurt because of him.

He couldn't believe that Maia would collude with Alexia, but it really hurt.

Tim lit a cigarette and sat in his car. He felt quite annoyed.

After a while, he took out his phone and called Nicole.

"There's indeed something wrong with Maia. Do you need to stop her work? I don't know what her purpose is, but you can stop her work pretext for her health."

When Nicole heard this, she knew that Tim must have investigated the matter.

She was depressed.

She used to feel lucky to have such a good girl as her assistant. She didn't expect that there was more to the story.

"No need." Nicole said in a low voice, "It's just a small tourism company. Soseph started this company with only several million. How valuable could it be? If Maia really wants the company, I can send it to her. I just don't know what she wants to do."

"I also want to know this. Don't worry. I will investigate it clearly."

"Tim,"

Nicole suddenly called his name.

"What?"

"Don't be sad. Maia may have her own worries and reason for doing it."

Tim got distracted for a moment. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, "You’re just making me feel better."

"If you believe so."

Nicole didn't deny.

"Do you think I'm a poor man?"

Tim forced a smile and continued, "It took me a long time before I met and fell in love with someone, but she didn't love me. I tried to get over her though it was not easy. But when I made it and wanted to begin a new chapter, I got such a huge blow. It's perhaps determined by fate. I will be lonely all my life."

"Don't talk nonsense. I believe that Maia is kind-natured and may have some difficulties. Tim, don't rush to make a judgment. Perhaps we are all wrong," Nicole said gently.

When she heard Tim mock himself, she felt very bitter.

Tim shook his head and said, "I can judge it by myself. I'll investigate it further. If there's any progress, I'll inform you. All right. I need some time to clear my head."

"Are you okay?"
