Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 832

"Are you bleeding?"

Samuel asked word by word, whose cold voice could have frozen one soul.

Nicole broke out in cold sweat.

"Samuel, don't!"

She truly felt that Edwin took the road to ruin.

"Grandpa, stop messing around!"

Nicole was afraid that Samuel's recklessness would hurt Edwin.

The ice-cold dagger rested against his chin, but Edwin felt somewhat glad.

"You seem much more unyielding than your father-in-law. For the sake of your love of my granddaughter, I will tell you the truth. She's fine. As long as you go and withdraw the lawsuit against Laurel, I will release her. Otherwise, she has to stay here with me for the rest of her life. I should doubt whether you could barge in next time."

Samuel knitted his brows together at Edwin's words.

"You want me to let go of Laurel?"

"Yes. Do you have bad ears?"

His waist aching and chin against a dagger, Edwin felt angry.

Samuel narrowed his eyes and looked at Nicole. As Edwin did not ordered to close the door which was wide open, so what had happened here was clearly seen by the people outside, but the conversation should be inaudible to those outsiders.

Where was he?

This was the military compound!

Even if he could barge in with his people, it was unreasonable for so many reporters and spectators to come in.

What's more, Nicole was fine though her throat was buckled loosely by a man. It didn't need a genius to solve this riddle, So Samuel figured out Edwin's intention.

"Alright, I'll leave Laurel alone, but I have to take Nicole away now."

"That won't do. If you take her away and don't keep your words, what else can I do? It took me so much effort to get her here. I can't ruin my plan. Samuel, I will release her whenever you fulfill your promise."

Edwin's words made Samuel colder in his manners.

"If my woman suffer even a little bit here, I won't be done with you."

There were few threats Edwin received in his life, and even the Don family didn't dare to speak to him like this. Therefore Samuel's threats took him by surprise.

He was so angry that he turned to Nicole and yelled, "What a good husband! Go back to your room?!"

"Grandpa!"

Nicole felt that she was innocent, indeed.

She didn't ask her grandfather to do this.

Samuel looked at Nicole with tenderness.

"Stay here and wait, I will come back ASAP."

"Alright. Help me to take good care of Olivia. By the way, how is Jacob?"

Nicole hastened to ask when this occurred to her.

"He's fine. Just some scratches on his head, and some rests will do him good. I'll take good care of Olivia. Don't worry. Wait for me. I'll be back soon."

Then Samuel turned to Edwin and said coldly, "Take good care of my woman. I will be right back."

"We'll talk about it after you get your job done."

Only when Edwin waved his hand, Samuel took away the dagger.

His eyes lingered at Nicole for a while, then turned around and walked out.

Looking at Samuel's back, Nicole felt sad.

"Samuel, don't do it if it is difficult for you, just don't do it for me..."

"I would be glad to go against the world for you!"

Samuel did not turn around, but these words floated in the air, causing Nicole's eyes to turn red immediately.

She did not know who was Samuel' targeted audience, but her heart was in turmoil at this moment. There was some emotion fermenting, expanding, filling her heart. It was warm and hot.

"Pretentious! Wish you're as good as your word."

Edwin retorted with disdain.

Nicole ignored him and watched Samuel disappear at the entrance of the Shaw's, then said in a low voice, "Grandpa, he is not an idiot. Isn't your intention too obvious?"

"Whatever, as long as I achieve my goal. Take a rest. I heard you took part in a design competition, didn't you? Days are numbered. You should make good preparations for it during your stay with me. I've already got your computer here. Go work. Remember, keep a balance between work and rest. "

Edwin's words stunned Nicole for a moment.

"Grandpa, do you mean I should stay here for a long time?"

"Why not? Don't a widowed old man like me deserve some company?"

Edwin said with confidence, which made Nicole laugh angrily.

"Samuel will be back soon. His anger..."

"Didn't you pacify him with just one sentence? If you insist to stay with me, won't he agree?"

"But I didn't say I would stay!"

Nicole didn't show any respect at all.

However, Edwin said roguishly, "Whatever, this is my home, so I should have the final say."

Her suddenly getting up startled Cara.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

"I'll go find Grandpa."

After saying that, Nicole left the room.

Though Cara felt a little scared, her concern over Nicole managed to persuade her to follow Nicole.

Edwin was on the phone when he saw Nicole coming over, so he ended hurriedly, "Let's talk about it later. I have guests here."

'Guests?'

Nicole frowned slightly.

'We're family, aren't we?'

'Then, how come I was described as a guest?'

'Who is Edwin talking to over the phone?'

'Could it be that it's not Edwin who's behind this? Then who is it?

Nicole was racking her brain.

"What's wrong? Why not take a rest? Your computer will arrive soon. Don't worry. I've already asked about your competition and learned that your opponents are weak. Winning the preliminaries will be a sure thing."

"Grandpa, I want to see my mother, now, immediately, this second."

Nicole interrupted Edwin. And her request made Edwin pause and look bad.

"When this matter is over, I'll let you see her."

"I told you, I want to see her now. Even if I can't fly over, can't I have a video chat with her now? I just want to know how she is and how she's doing."

Edwin disliked Nicole's stubbornness.

"She's my daughter. What can I do to her? Everything is fine except her limited freedom. Don't worry. But it's not the time for you to meet."

"Then when? Grandpa, I just want to know what Morgan is doing there where my mother is grounded. Morgan is a doctor, not a nanny. You won't tell me that she stays to take care of my mother, right?"

This was a question that Nicole had never understood.

If Edwin wanted Audrey to be taken care of, he could just hire a nanny. Why did he chose Morgan?

Morgan was treating Adela at the Miller's, but later Adela was killed and Morgan disappeared mysteriously. Now Morgan was taking care of Audrey. What a strange coincidence!

Nicole couldn't convince herself with such a coincidence, so here she was, trying to get the answer to the riddle from Edwin. Otherwise, she would be restless.

Edwin's expression changed suddenly when he heard Nicole's question.
