Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1257

Juliana didn't expect Nicole would ask such sharp questions, so she paused for a moment. From Juliana's reaction, Nicole knew her assumption was right.

Samuel kept silent while Nicole talked to Juliana.

The people outside started to rescue them.

Soon, Nicole and Samuel were pulled up, along with Juliana. But Juliana was contained as soon as she was out.

"Antidote."

Samuel's voice was very cold.

Juliana gave a little shiver and handed the antidote to Samuel. Only then did Nicole discover that Samuel's fingers were black.

"Are you poisoned?"

Nicole had no strength left, her eyes filled with worry.

Samuel said softly, "I'm fine. Let me help you take a shower first."

After saying that, he put the antidote in his pocket and commanded coldly, "Lock her up. I want to know all her secrets."

"Yes."

The bodyguard immediately stepped forward, which scared Juliana. She tried to struggle free.

"No! You can't be so ungrateful. I have saved your wife."

"Otherwise, you would be dead now."

Finishing this sentence, Samuel carried Nicole outside the ancestral hall directly.

When they returned back, Zoe and Joseph hurried over.

"Daddy, what happened to Mommy?"

"Stay back. Your Mommy was drugged and need a rest. Don't worry. You guys go to bed. Joseph, come with me."

Samuel hesitated for a moment and asked Joseph to stay.

Although Zoe was a little worried, she felt relieved when Joseph was called inside.

So, she went back to her room.

Joseph followed into the room and frowned, his eyes on the Nicole.

"Mommy, someone poisoned you?"

"Is there a way?"

Samuel wore a serious expression.

Joseph nodded and said, "It's not a big deal. This poison can temporarily paralyze the nerves but has no effect on the body. Rinse it and Mommy will be okay. But doesn't Mommy always stay with you? How could she be poisoned?"

"A woman did it."

Samuel's eyes flashed with coldness.

Joseph did not ask any further. After giving Nicole another detailed examination, he felt completely relieved.

"Don't worry. Mommy just needs a rest."

"I see. Then you go rest as well."

Samuel said indifferently and carried Nicole to the bathroom. After helping Nicole wash away the poison on her body, Samuel finally ate the antidote.

Nicole looked at Samuel and sighed softly, "You... you always don't care about yourself. The poison was in your body for so long. Aren’t you afraid that your body will be damaged?"

"You are my life. It already hurt me that I didn't save you at once when you fell inside. I will definitely not let this happen again."

"You didn't save me immediately because you had to deal with problems outside, right?"

When he heard it, Samuel was slightly shocked. Then he smiled, his eyes full of affection.

"Everything is settled. Don't worry."

Samuel did not explain to Nicole what happened after she fell unconscious, nor did he tell her anything about Joseph. He knew everything could slowly change with time and people's thoughts.

"Are you hungry? How about I get you something to eat?"

"Okay."

Nicole was really hungry. She still felt weak. Eating something was helpful for her.

Samuel petted Nicole's head, ordered bodyguards to protect her and then headed to the kitchen.

When Zoe returned to her room, she caught a glimpse of a woman who was took away by a few bodyguards. She felt a little confused.

Out of curiosity, she quickly followed them.

Juliana was locked in a cave. A bodyguard took out a whip.

The whip was barbed. One could be ripped alive with it.

Juliana's face immediately turned pale.

"Stop! I'm warning you! Don't touch me or you'll regret it!"

The bodyguard didn't seem to hear it, his gaze icy.

The man raised the whip and it cracked threateningly. Seeing this, Juliana screamed separately.

"Help! Help! Is anyone here? How could you kill an innocent person without reasons?"

Juliana cried out loudly, as if she had suffered a great grievance.

The bodyguard couldn't bear her sharp voice. He cracked his whip and it came down on Juliana.

Juliana let out a painful scream.

This time she was not faking.

Zoe could even see the blood splattering in the air.

Juliana's entire body trembled.

"You fucking bastard!"
