Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 822

"Who is it?"

Nicole subconsciously tried to look for that person who had bumped into Cara, but unfortunately, nothing could be seen.

She hurriedly unfolded the note in hand. After reading it, she immediately frowned.

"Ask Samuel to stop dealing with the Millers if you want your mother alive."

Nicole's heart pounded.

It had been long since she last heard from Audrey, and she had always been worried. She had asked Finn to find Audrey's whereabouts. Unfortunately, before Finn could say anything to her, he was caught by Laurel.

Now, a threatening note suddenly appeared in her hand. Nicole felt really chilly.

Although she was not in the Green's, it was Adela's funeral today, Laurence, Samuel and their men were all here. There were so many people here, yet a person managed to stuff a note into her hand unnoticed. It scared Nicole just to think about it.

Night Elf Empire was developed by Samuel personally. The Millers had people in it?

Thinking about this, Nicole was shocked.

"Mrs. Green, are you alright?"

Cara failed to grab anything to keep her balance and directly fell to the ground. Her arms and legs were bleeding, but she didn't stop. She hurriedly went to see how Nicole was doing.

Nicole held the note tightly in hand and said calmly, "I'm fine. You should go to see the doctor later."

"It was nothing big. Some ointment will do. I'm not that fragile. Who was it just now? Why didn't I see anyone?"

After Cara finished speaking, she felt a chill run down her spine.

She couldn't help but glance at Adela's cemetery and said in a low voice, "Could it be..."

"Don't be superstitious! Even if ghosts really exist, Adela won't do anything to harm me. Let's go back first."

Nicole looked around and did not find anyone suspicious. She returned to the ward with unease.

Samuel and Laurence were busy. After Adela was buried, Laurence settled down her parents and planned to bring them back to the Seapolis City with Samuel.

Samuel was also busy with this matter. When he returned to the ward, he saw Nicole staring out the window in a daze. He hugged her from behind.

"What's wrong? What's on your mind?"

"Nothing. Life is really fragile. Adela is only in her early twenties, but she's actually gone."

Nicole sighed.

"Everyone has their own destinies. That's why we have to make every day count. You never know which will come first, accident or death. The only thing we can do is to spend as many years as possible with each other. Even if we die and become ghosts, we'll be a ghost couple then."

Hearing this, Nicole rolled her eyes at Samuel.

"What are you talking about? I don't want to be your ghost wife. Samuel, I have something to tell you."

Nicole thought for a while and told Samuel about what happened.

"What is it?"

"Look at this."

She handed the note to Samuel.

When Samuel saw the note, his face turned pale.

"Who gave it to you?"

"I don't know. When I was about to get in the car at Adela's funeral, someone bumped into me, and then there was this note. Neither Cara nor I saw who it was. Later, I looked for the nearby surveillance cameras. The footage was blurry. It seemed to be a woman. She wasn't tall, but I couldn't see her face clearly. Take a look yourself."

As Nicole spoke, she sent the video in her phone to Samuel.

Samuel's eyes turned cold as he watched the video.

"The Millers—they won't give up anyway. I'll go meet Laurel after I return to the Seapolis City tomorrow."

"Maybe I should go meet her. She got someone to hand me this note, so she must want me there. She may not get what she wants from you, but she might be able to do so from me."

Nicole told Samuel her thoughts.

Samuel looked at her worriedly.

"You've not recovered yet. I'm a little worried about you meeting her."

"There's nothing to worry about. She's in a detention center, not outside. Besides, someone will be watching her. I'll protect myself and won't let her hurt me. I just want to know what she's plotting."

"Plotting? She just wants to get out, so she can do whatever she wants again."

Samuel really hated Laurel.

There was a life between him and her—not just one life, but many. Even Samuel did not know how many lives there were.

Nicole said in a low voice, "I haven't heard from Mom for a long time. I'm really worried about her. When she left the Seapolis City and went there, none of us knew. Now, there is no news of her—not even a letter, and this note has something to do with the Millers... I am even more worried. I know you're worried about me. You're afraid that I'll be bullied by Laurel, but I have to do something for my mother. Besides, Martha doesn't have much time left. In her last days, I hope that my mother and she can meet each other. Only in this way can I be relieved."

"You are always thinking of others. You don't care about yourself at all. Have you ever thought of my feelings? Do you know how worried I am when seeing you work so hard?"

Samuel sighed, but he did not stop Nicole. For him, as long as Nicole got to do the things she wanted, that was enough. He would even manage to pick up the sun in the sky if she wanted it.

Nicole naturally knew that Samuel was worried about her, but she smiled and said, "There's really no need to worry about me. I'll take Cara with me. You know what Cara is capable of. If there really is anything wrong with me, she will help me immediately. Don't worry."
