Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 782

"Martha, please give me another chance. I won't hurt you again this time. I will be there with you until the last minute of your life. This is our promise. Do you remember?"

Ballard's words angered Tim a little.

"What are you talking about? My mother still has a long life ahead. Besides, things are already like this. There's nothing you could do about it."

"Leave me and your mother alone."

"You think I want to get involved? If it weren't for my mother, I wouldn't even talk to you. You're just a scum. You cheated on your wife. You hurt your wife and child. What makes you think your apology will make us trust you again? What makes you think you can get forgiveness just by saying you're sorry? Did you really love my mom? Ask yourself, did my mother ever had a place in your heart these years? Even if she gave birth to your child, even if she settled herself for you, you are still not satisfied. Don't say that all men will make that mistake. You are insulting us."

Tim and Ballard got into a quarrel.

Seeing they are dealing with their family matters, Nicole said, "Auntie, Jacob and I got to go."

"Wait a moment. I'll sign and leave with you."

Martha's words made Ballard's eyes immediately wet.

"Martha, do you have to be like this? We've been married for so many years. Just let me accompany you, okay?"

"I've already said what I want to say. Now you can do whatever you want."

Martha didn't say anything else and directly signed the divorce papers. Then, she turned to look at Nicole and smiled, "Take me back."

"Mom, I'll take you back."

Tim frowned and felt that Martha was not as dependent on him as before.

He felt a little disappointed in the heart.

Martha patted his hand and smiled, "Did you forget that Trevin is still in the hospital? You can't let Samuel keep staying in the south, right? I don't like Maia. But I know her brother is not her. I won't vent my anger on her brother. Don't worry about me. Nicole will bring me back."

Hearing Martha's words, Tim finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, if you need anything, just tell me. I'll write you the phone number."

Tim's words made Martha laugh. She said, "Do you think your mother has become an old-timer after living in the sanatorium for so many years? You think I don't know how to keep your number on the phone?"

"No, I'm just afraid it will trouble you. I thought writing it down would be better."

Tim did not admit that he underestimated his mother.

Seeing Tim and Martha having a warm talk and ignoring his existence, Ballard felt complicated. Words failed to describe his feelings.

He wanted to say something, but before that, he saw Martha holding Nicole's hand and saying, "Nicole, let's go." In the end, he said nothing.

"Alright."

Martha had made up her mind. Nicole made no comment about that. She just brought Martha away from the Louis family.

At the gate of the Louis', Nicole saw Jacob.

Instead of following Bella to the police station, he smoked beside the car.

It hadn't been long. But there were already a lot of cigarette butts piled up on the ground.

"Smoke so much? Do you want to get lung cancer? Aren't you afraid that Olivia will lecture you after she comes back?"

Nicole wanted to comfort Jacob, but she could not manage to say comforting words. After all, no one could stand having such a mother and encountering such a thing.

Seeing Nicole come out, Jacob hurriedly threw the cigarette away.

"Mrs. Green, I'll send you back."

"No need. I'm worried about you. Why don't you call a designated driver to send you back? I think you need to rest now."

Nicole was really worried about Jacob.

He looked like he was going to collapse anytime, anywhere.

"Jacob, Bella is Bella. You are you. Everyone knows that. Don't be too sad."

Nicole patted Jacob on the shoulder and said, "Think about Olivia, think about Samuel. You still have many friends by your side. You're not alone. You're not a Louis. But this doesn't matter. The Jacob we know is never a person who relies on his family background. You are just Jacob! We take you as a friend not because of your background but yourself. You are our friend. It has nothing to do with your name or your background."

Hearing Nicole's words, Jacob was very touched.

"Thank you, Mrs. Green. I'm in a much better mood now."

"No matter you feel better or not, get a designated driver to send you back. I worry about you. Besides, you're my best friend Olivia's boyfriend. If I don't take good care of you, if Olivia asks me for a healthy Jacob, where can I get her that Jacob? Is that right?"

Nicole's words made Jacob laugh.

He said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sorry for letting you see such a scene."

"No need to apologize. You did a good job, son."

Martha looked at Jacob and said peacefully. Her attitude was much friendlier.

Seeing Martha, Jacob thought of what his mother had done. He couldn't help but bow to Martha.

"Auntie, I'm sorry! I apologize to you on behalf of my mother."

"You don't need to apologize. I already said that I'm not mad at you."

Martha was rational. She did not vent her anger on Jacob.

"Thank you, Mrs. Louis."

Jacob was like this. Nicole was still worried.

"Jacob, listen to me. If you don't want a designated driver, I'll send you back."

"There's really no need to do so, Mrs. Green. I can take care of myself. I just need to be alone for a while."
