Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1310

"Isn't Amelia well enough to do that now?"

Nicole was a little surprised.

Jarrod smiled and said, "It's to repay you for your kindness to get her out of the mental dilemma. I will carry her in my arms later and ensure she's free from the wind. After all, she's the one who desires to know about the result of the paternity test more than anyone else."

It was true.

Amelia loved Jarrod for so many years and suffered years of torments of love and hatred. Besides, she even miscarried several times in succession for the deep-rooted hatred. So she really wanted to know the result.

Seeing that Jarrod had made up his mind, Samuel nodded and said, "Alright, then you can prepare for that. I'm going out for a walk with Nicole."

"Don't go too far in case of any danger. I still haven't had some remaining forces submitted to me."

Jarrod wasn't absolutely powerful. Although he was Jayden's son, Jayden only gave him little power. After Jayden disappeared, he did control some forces temporarily by force. But in such a short time, he couldn't submit those forces that had been loyal to Jayden for years.

Samuel naturally knew it.

The two men exchanged a tacit nod and then Samuel took Nicole out of the room.

The mess was almost cleaned up outside, and there was no longer any smell of blood. However, something suppressed beneath the calm would still surge through them from time to time.

Although Nicole did not like this place very much, she could not go out now. She found a small reservoir behind the house after observation. Then she tugged at Samuel's sleeve and said, "Let's sit over there."

"Alright."

Samuel knew Nicole's thoughts, so he held her hand and walked over.

It was quiet here. Water in the reservoir was very clear and the fish inside were swimming in a lively way.

Nicole couldn't help but laugh and say, "Jayden is quite good at enjoying life, even keeping fish here."

But Samuel frowned slightly.

"The fish are not for food. They are electric fish."

"Electric fish?"

Nicole was a little surprised.

Samuel was somewhat serious, and whispered, "These fish are all electrical. Only one won't pose harm. But with so many of them in the reservoir, it will form great electrical current and electrocute one to death once someone falls into it."

Nicole was stunned for a moment.

Water conducted electricity well, coupled with the electrical current of these fish. If one fell into it...

Nicole shivered at the thought of it.

"Let's leave here."

Regardless of why Nicole wanted to come here just now, Samuel only felt danger at this moment.

Nicole did not stay anymore. She followed Samuel and left. Out of curiosity, she turned and glanced at the fish in the reservoir again. Then she frowned slightly.

Suddenly, a figure in black flashed so fast that Nicole couldn't see the face clearly.

"Someone is here."

Nicole paused. Then Samuel immediately pulled her into his arms and whispered, "No matter who it is, we should leave here right now."

Perhaps sensing Samuel's nervousness, Nicole quickly walked out of this place in Samuel's embrace.

Nevertheless, it was late.

Samuel only saw the figure flicker in front of him and then he smelt something sweet before he could react.

"Hold your breath, Nicole."

Samuel quickly reminded Nicole, but he inhaled some powder and instantly felt dizzy.

Nicole did not take it in under Samuel's protection. Seeing Samuel's reaction, she hurriedly opened the bottle in her hands and splashed water on his face.

Fortunately, she carried a bottle of water with her before going out. But she didn't expect it would come in handy in such a way.

Then Samuel was awakened by the cold water.

He quickly said to Nicole, "Go back to ask Jarrod for help."

"What about you?"

Nicole was worried about Samuel.

Samuel's eyes were cold, staring at where the figure in black disappeared and said, "I will catch the figure."

"No, go back with me. It's too dangerous for you to stay here."

Nicole did not agree and pulled Samuel away, even regardless of his opposition.

Samuel originally wanted to insist on staying here. But he eventually couldn't bear to when seeing Nicole's worried expression.

Then he held Nicole's hand and walked out, but he still looked back.

The edge of the reservoir was covered with grass which was the same height as a person, so it wasn't hard for several people to hide here.

Samuel quietly kept that in mind and then brought Nicole back to the room.

When seeing them return, Jarrod smiled and said, "Have you done with wandering so soon?"

"Samuel seems to have inhaled some kind of powder."

Nicole said in an anxious tone, which made Jarrod nervous instantly.

"What happened to you?"

"There's someone around the reservoir."

Upon hearing Samuel's words, Jarrod narrowed his eyes.

"Did you go to the reservoir behind?"

"Yes. It's quiet there, so I intended to sit there for a while. But I didn't expect we would nearly get hurt."

Samuel did not hide anything.

Jarrod hurriedly called a doctor.

The doctor examined Samuel and found that the powder was a kind of spice that could make people unconscious temporarily. It wouldn't do much harm to people but would make them unconscious and lose mobility.
