Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 825

No one answered Jacob. They only told him that Bella was released on bail and didn't mention anything else.

Jacob wanted to ask something else, while the other party politely took him out.

Jacob felt so complicated. As a son, he heaved a sigh of relief since Bella was released on bail. But as Samuel's brother, he felt worried. He didn't know if Bella's release on bail was a good thing.

Just as Jacob was thinking about what to do, Cornell appeared and took Jacob into an alley.

He was much more haggard than before when he was a doctor.

"Give me some money. I want to go abroad."

Cornell took it for granted that he extended his hand to Jacob to ask for money.

Jacob looked at this man who was his half brother and felt extremely disgusted.

"How did you get out? Were you also released on bail? Who did that? Where is my mother?"

Facing a series of questions from Jacob, Cornell was very impatient.

"Why do you have so many questions? How do I know who bailed her? How do I know where she went? Maybe she has escaped with one big shot. Damn, women are so unreliable. She ran away and I'm broke now. I don't even have a job because of her. My reputation is also ruined. I'm so poor now. You're her son. You have to compensate me! Hurry up and give me money. I'll be leaving tonight."

Cornell's attitude irritated Jacob.

"Her son? Can she give birth to a son by herself? I've grown up. You threw me into an orphanage. What did you give me all these years? Why do you have the never to ask me for money?"

"I gave you your life!"

Cornell was arrogant.

Jacob sneered as he grabbed Cornell's collar. With a little strength, Cornell's feet were above the ground.

"You, you, you! You dare to do this to me! Aren't you afraid of being punished?"

"Since you're not scared, why should I be scared? Tell me. Who bailed you?"

Jacob's indifference and violence made Cornell scared.

"I don't know." He trembled. "Someone told me that I was released on bail and he told me to leave quickly, so I came out. Prison was no place for a man. As long as someone gets me out, I don't care who he is."

Jacob frowned slightly.

Who was he?

Who secretly bailed Cornell and Bella out?

What did he want?

"Where are you going?"

"Go abroad. My reputation is ruined and I can't survive anymore. I have to go abroad. You are my son. You have to give me money."

Jacob felt sorry for Cornell and his shamelessness. However, to find out who was behind this, Jacob said coldly, "I will give you 200,000. Whether you are dead or alive in the future has nothing to do with me."

"Only 200,000? I gave you your life, so that you can follow Samuel and live a good life. But you only give me 200,000?"

"Do you want it? If you don't want it, then you'll have nothing. You can starve yourself to death."

After Jacob finished speaking, he threw Cornell to the ground.

Ruthlessness flashed in Cornell's eyes, but it disappeared quickly.

"Of course I want it. I just have a bad luck. Hurry up and give me the money."

"Can I take 200,000 with me? You find a place to wait for me and I'll give it to you in two hours."

Jacob turned around and was about to leave.

But Cornell grabbed his arm and said, "Let me follow you and get the money. Where can I go now? I'm just a person hated by anyone. Otherwise, why would I go abroad?"

"Aren't you afraid that Samuel will cripple you when he sees you? I need to report my work to Samuel."

Cornell shrank when hearing this.

Anyway, he was scared of Samuel. Thinking of that he was reduced to such a poor situation because of Samuel and Nicole, he hated him so much. Unfortunately, he could not be compared to Samuel. So he could only leave this place now and thought about it later.

Jacob saw Cornell's expression and knew what he was thinking, but he pretended not to see anything.

Cornell pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll wait for you at a small hotel next to your company. You cannot stand me up. Otherwise...."

"Since you have time to threaten me, why don't you think about how to leave this place? With money alone, no one can leave the Seapolis City."

Jacob's words reminded Cornell and his expression darkened.

Jacob didn't care about his matter. He stepped out of the alley. However, when he was about to turn around the corner, he made a gesture and two bodyguards immediately came up to him.

"Mr. Brown, what is it?"

"Follow him and see who he contacts. I want to know every detail."

"Yes."

After the bodyguards kept up with Cornell, Jacob turned around and left. He returned to the Green's.

Samuel was at work, while Nicole was still resting. Finishing the matter of the Miller family, Nicole was so exhausted that she just wanted to sleep.

Jacob came to the study and knocked on the door.
