Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 774

Nicole's heart skipped a beat.

She was sure that once she handed over the evidence to the police, Tim would find out the truth, but she had no other choice.

Dodging Tim, Nicole handed over the surveillance video to the police.

"The evidence you need are here. Here you are."

"Thank you, Mrs. Green."

Taking over the video camera, the police took Cornell away.

All of a sudden, the ward became so quiet that one could hear the sound of a needle dropping onto the ground.

Never had Nicole been so nervous, but she was clear that Tim would figure out at last, even she said nothing.

"Tim, listen to me."

All of a sudden, Tim threw a vase, aiming at Nicole.

The vase missed its aim, passed by Nicole and fell behind her, splintering.

This was the first time that Tim lost his head over Nicole.

Nicole was also stunned by his move.

Looking at Tim, she noticed that the veins on his forehead burst out, and there in his eyes were condemnation and anger which he tried his best to suppress.

"Tim, I, I...."

"Get lost!"

Tim was so depressed that he sounded like a broken gong.

Nicole felt scared.

She had never seen Tim like this before, but she also felt wronged and worried.

"No, listen to me..."

"I told you. Get lost!"

Tim smashed his fist against the wall, his back facing Nicole, his shoulders trembling.

"Nicole, I don't want to quarrel with you, nor hurt you. You'd better be out of sight now before I lose my mind. I knew that Maia didn't have much time left, and there was something between you two that you were hiding from me. But how could you do this? How could you sacrifice her life in exchange for the evidence? She was a bit evil, despicable and shameless, but even so, didn't she have the right to live? You sacrificed her remaining life to help me know the truth, and clear away obstacles and threats for me. So, you think, I, as a grown man, can't handle the matter? Do I need you and a dying woman to do this for me?"

He felt the prick in his eyes, even some warm liquid leaking out.

He didn't want to be indebted to anyone, but now he would never have the chance to repay Maia in his lifetime.

'She should have been the one who feels sorry, but now...'

Even if Maia was dead now, could he really find his peace of mind again?

Nicole did this for his own good, and she didn't know the messy relationship between Maia and himself.

In whichever way to know the truth, even from the mouth of Nicole, he would like accept, but definitely not in this way.

Maia sacrificed her own life to tell him who had plotted against him all these years. How could he bear this?

As a man, he couldn't protect his own woman, but was protected by this woman with her own life. Tim felt deeply humiliated by such love.

Nicole was dumbfounded at the questions of Tim.

She never expected such a repercussion from Tim.

"I'm sorry."

"Go. Let Samuel pick you up. I don't want to see you for the time being. Leave me alone."

Nicole felt sad when Tim showed her the door.

For the first time, she felt that she might make a mistake.

Nicole bit her lower lip and left the ward without a word.

Maia was still lying in the ward serenely, but she would no longer open her eyes.

After Nicole left, Tim turned around to look at Maia with tears streaming down his handsome face.
