Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 834

"If I cannot see my mother, can I at least see Morgan? Even if I can only video chat with her. I need to ask her something. Is that ok?"

Nicole's request was so sincere and urgent in front of Edwin.

Edwin paused for a moment and said in a low voice, "I am afraid she will not see you either."

"Why? There is no grudge between us."

Nicole could not understand the reason behind it.

Edwin shook his head. "I don't know the details. But when she promised to take care of your mother, the only condition she told me was that she did not want to see you again for the rest of her life."

"What?"

Nicole was so shocked that she did not know what to say.

Was it because that she did not show respect to Morgan in the Land city, and that was the reason why Morgan did not want to see her forever?

But Morgan was not a small-minded person.

"Grandpa, could you..."

"There is nothing I can do because I already made a promise to her. Perhaps I will try later but not now. I am getting tired, too. You may go and take a rest."

It was obvious that Edwin did not want Nicole to stay any longer.

Nicole understood that there was no need for her to insist and stay anymore. She said goodnight to Edwin and left the room.

Cara came back at this time and saw Nicole. Seeing the disappointment on Nicole's face, Cara asked with worries, "Mrs. Green, is everything alright?"

"I am tired. I want to rest for a while."

Nicole returned to her mother's room.

She suddenly remembered what Edwin said. He told Nicole that Audrey caught a fatal disease and would pass away soon. He also said that Audrey knew the diagnosis when she left the Seapolis City.

Sadness came to her mind, and her tears were about to drop.

When Audrey was still a healthy woman, she did not think of her as someone of vital importance to her life. When she said that she wanted to leave the Seapolis City to travel around, she was only sad for a moment. At that time, she did not see her mother an important part of her life.

Audrey gave birth to her. But in the past 30 years, it was the Bush family who gave her the parents' love. She had such a happy life that she kept an indifferent attitude towards Audrey. Even if there was a trace of affection, she never felt that Audrey was important. Moreover, the other child of Audrey's had caused so much trouble for her.

Nicole even felt that if it was not for the Dons and the essential etiquette she was taught, she probably wouldn't be this close to Andrey. However, when Nicole knew that Audrey's life was coming to an end, she finally felt the deepest pain.

The pain was like a vine with poisonous thorns that tightly wrapped around her. It was getting so tight that it was hard for her to breathe.

She tore open her collar, but still felt suffocating.

How did she end up having a fatal disease?

She was still so young and energetic.

Edwin said that Audrey had been unfortunate all her life. Nicole did not feel so at first, but now, she felt deep sorrow.

The fear and sadness of knowing Andrey was going to die was overwhelmingly painful for her.

Audrey had two daughters, but when she didn't have much time left, she decided to find a place to die alone, so that no one would know. Nicole felt sad every time she thought about it.

Cara was worried about Nicole. She saw Nicole crying when she came to Nicole's room,

Nicole did not make any sound. It was like she did not intend to cry. However, Cara got more worried when she saw it.

"Mrs. Green, are you worried about Mr. Green? Do not worry, Mr. Green is capable of anything. He will come and pick you up."

Cara guessed about Nicole's tears.

Nicole did not deny it, nor did she say anything. She just looked outside of the window. No one knew what she was thinking.

It started raining outside and soon got misty, which made Nicole's mood even worse.

She was desperate to see Audrey, but she also knew that without Edwin's permission, she would never have a chance to see her.

Nicole looked at the photo of Audrey on her bedside table. Her tears fell like pearls off a string.

She could do anything, but she could not fight with death.

What should she do?

Was it the destiny that she could not have a close familial relationship with Audrey?

She had not had many opportunities to be together with her. She never snuggled up to her like any other child. Why would she leave this world in such a hurry?

Perhaps, after Nicole's father died, Audrey had been suffering. She was just living life. But now, she did not have to wait any longer. Was she finally going to see Nicole's father on the other side of the world?

Did it mean that Nicole would officially become an orphan?

This was the first time Nicole felt like she was duckweed.

A feeling of emptiness that could not be filled by the Bush family.

In the end, this bloodline made her suffered from losing a family member.

Nicole ignored Cara and lay on the bed. She tightly grabbed the blanket and covered her head. The smell on the blanket reminded her of the feeling of snuggling in her mother's arms.

Audrey's face and voice showed up in Nicole's mind.

Audrey was a boring woman. She rarely smiled and kept a poker face all day. She did not know if it was from her job as a diplomat, or the loss of her lover.

All Nicole could remember was the first time she saw Audrey smile. It was when Audrey saw her and knew she was her daughter.

Audrey's smile back then was so bright and warm. Was it true that she could never see it again?
