Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 872

Nicole was now officially had problem with Melissa.

Originally, she didn't want to hurt Melissa for her mother's sake, but Melissa actually dared to provoke her again and again. Nicole thought that if Melissa disturbed her again, she would throw her out.

Under Nicole's cold gaze, Melissa was terrified.

"Well, I will turn it off. Why are you so angry? I can't understand why Samuel likes you."

As Melissa spoke, she went back to her room, and the door was slammed.

Nicole didn't give vent to her anger, and she was very depressed.

Lucas looked out at her and asked, "Mommy, do you want me to throw her out?"

"No need. Don't mind it. I'll go out to take a walk."

Nicole walked out of the Green's.

Feeling the breeze outside, she finally felt relieved.

She lost the previous designing ideas and it was very difficult to get them back. Nicole just gave up. And instead, she wanted to see Olivia.

Although Olivia said that she didn't want to see her, Nicole was still worried. Besides, things seemed to become better. She felt that the relationship between her and Olivia could be repaired.

Thinking of this, Nicole drove to the Nightspot Zone.

Jacob paused for a moment when he saw Nicole. He whispered, "Mrs. Green, they're not here anymore. I'm here to pack things up."

"Where did they go?"

"To the hospital. The operation was very successful, but these days are critical. The doctor suggested that we should stay in the hospital."

Hearing Jacob's words, Nicole heaved a sigh of relief.

"What about Booth's operating expenses?"

"I've paid that. Don't worry, Mrs. Green. Are you here to see Olivia and Booth?"

"Yep. But now I don't need to see them. Olivia is very emotional. Since they are in the hospital, if I'm there, it's easily to attract others' attention. And it won't be a good thing if I bring them danger. So please take good care of them."

Actually, Nicole really wanted to see them, but she gave up.

"Alright."

Jacob nodded.

Nicole turned around and planned to return.

She thought of the incident of poppy and what happened in the Kent family. Then she thought of Gerry and Elvis. There was something that she couldn't figure out.

If Gerry was really the initiator of the poppy incident, then why did he admit it so quickly? Moreover, he had admitted her as sister-in-law not long ago, which really surprised her.

Samuel hadn't returned yet, and she didn't know if she should go and take a look at him.

Nicole drove around the streets, restless and annoyed.

Suddenly, she saw Dad Bush take a few calligraphy and paintings to the pawnshop.

Nicole paused slightly.

Dad Bush's calligraphy and paintings were valuable, but he had never sold them at a high price. Now that he took them to the pawnshop, could it be that something had happened to the Bush family?

Nicole quickly followed her dad.

With calligraphy and paintings in his hand, Dad Bush seemed to be reluctant.

Nicole could tell that he was really reluctant to sell them. Tears even appear in his eyes, which made Nicole's heart twitch.

"Mr. Bush, you are here to...."

The pawnshop owner saw Dad Bush and hurriedly came out to greet him.

Dad Bush said awkwardly, "I want to hock calligraphy and paintings. Please help value them."

The owner was slightly stunned when he heard what Dad Bush said. Then he asked in disbelief, "Mr. Bush, do you really want to hock your works? Do you know that everything here has a time limit? If you can't buy them back within the time limit, then they will be mine."

Dad Bush nodded heavily.

"I know. Please value them and tell me the price."

The owner was a little cautious.

"I have to invite a few masters to value them. I won't let you suffer any losses."

Dad Bush nodded.

Seeing the owner of the pawnshop go inside, Nicole walked in through the back door.

"Boss, may I talk to you?"

The owner was stunned when he saw Nicole.

"Mrs. Green, so you and Mr. Bush...."

"My dad may be in trouble and he doesn't want to tell us. So please give me the bill of his calligraphy and paintings. I'll pay for that. Do I make myself clear?"

Hearing Nicole said this, the owner understood.

"Alright. I had wanted to earn some money from them, but since Mrs. Green has said that, I will naturally help you."

"You can take 10% as a commission. It's fine. My father is very sensitive. Please don't tell him what I've done."

The owner understood everything.

"Alright, thank you, Mrs. Green."

When the owner went to find masters, Nicole opened the painting works, which her father was reluctant to sell, and touched them over and over again.

What exactly happened to her father so that he needed so much money? And he even decided to hock his favorite works?

Nicole didn't know, but she knew that even if she asks her father, he might not tell her.

The boss brought the appraiser to the front and discussed with Dad Bush. Not long after, the price was set at 7 million for the two calligraphy and paintings.

Being depressed for a whole afternoon, Nicole finally felt relieved at this moment.

"It's fine. It was I who told her to stay."

"You?"

"She is Melissa, my parents' biological daughter. My parents are going to renovate the house, so they let her live here with us for a few days."

Samuel immediately knew who Nicole was talking about.

"Mom and dad are back?"

"Yes, they came back this afternoon and they have left for a while."

After handing the car keys to Samuel, Nicole turned to look at Melissa, who was indignant but dared not say anything to Samuel. She suddenly recalled the violin.

"You can play the violin?"

Melissa was slightly stunned and said awkwardly, "I will learn that! I've already asked dad to sign up for a violin class. It's said that dad invited the best teacher in the Seapolis City to teach me. His name is Seu...."

Hearing this, Nicole frowned.

"Seuss."

"Yes, Seuss! Many people want to learn the violin from him, but none of them has the chance. However, dad has already arranged it for me."

Melissa was very proud, but Nicole was a little angry.

"You'd better learn the violin well. Otherwise...."

"What? Are you threatening me again? You'd better be careful. Or I'll tell dad. Don't think that you can bully me because dad loves you."

"Don't talk to my wife like that anymore. Otherwise, I'll throw you to the dog cage and let you live with the dog."

Samuel said coldly, which successfully shut Melissa up.

Nicole felt uncomfortable and said to Samuel, "I don't want to have dinner. I'm going upstairs to rest."

"What about dining out?"

Samuel knew that Nicole didn't feel good, for that she could not refuse Mr. and Mrs. Bush, which was such an annoying dilemma.

However, Nicole shook her head and said, "I'm just a little tired and I don't want to go out. You take Lucas to dine out."

"Well, forget it. You go upstairs and rest. When the dinner is ready, I'll bring you some food. I'm going to the study to deal with the business."

Since Nicole was upset, Samuel didn't want to go out either.

They kept talking and completely forgot about Melissa.

Melissa really wanted to remind them that she was still here. But just as she was about to speak, Samuel shot her a cold glance. It was like a knife, which scared her so much that she instantly shut up.

"You can stay here. But don't disturb my wife and don't make her angry. Otherwise, I'll still beat you up. I don't care whose daughter you are."

After Samuel finished speaking, he hugged Nicole and they went up to the second floor. He naturally did not notice Melissa staring at Nicole with her cold gaze. It seemed as if she wanted to tear Nicole into pieces.
