Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1341

"It seemed that there are more than ten people. They can't be sent by Phoenix to pick us up, can they? If so, that's quite something."

Yanice was still joking.

Nicole's expression darkened.

Yanice looked at her and whispered, "Are you going to call Samuel? He must have just left and he should be back in time if you call him now."

Nicole looked at the bracelet and shook her head slightly. "No need. If he comes back, we may be annihilated. I don't want both of us to die here."

"But are you going to sacrifice yourself? You should know that the jealous woman is the most terrifying. What if Phoenix doesn't want to kill you, but want to torment you instead?"

"She shouldn't be such a person."

Nicole sounded pretty sure, causing Yanice to be surprised.

"You have a good impression of her, don't you?"

Nicole smiled bitterly.

Indeed, aside from the fact that Phoenix liked Samuel, Nicole admired and liked Phoenix very much, but they had such different standpoints.

Although she had barely known Phoenix before, Nicole felt that if Phoenix wanted to get rid of her, she would do it straight and would definitely not torture her.

Phoenix would just kill her.

This feeling came suddenly and quickly, but Nicole firmly believed it.

From Samuel's description, Nicole could tell about Phoenix's personality. She was clear about what she loved and what she hated; she was straightforward; and she did things neatly, just as well as a man.

Such a person should be Samuel's helper, not his enemy.

Nicole was drowned in her own thoughts, but Yanice did not understand as she whispered, "Then what should we do now? The people seem to be getting closer and closer to us."

Nicole couldn't keep thinking under such a situation. She grabbed Yanice's hand and whispered, "Follow me."

"You're familiar with this place?"

Nicole did not say anything, but quickly took Yanice to hide.

The hiding place was much concealed, even Yanice had not thought of it.

"You're pretty amazing. How did you know there was a trash bin here?"

Yanice used to live in an exquisite lifestyle, but after being imprisoned for so many years, she knew that to live was the most important. Therefore, when Nicole dragged her into a trash bin, Yanice did not hesitate at all.

Nicole whispered, "When I got off the car, I checked around and found that this place was very spacious. The only place we could hide was this trash bin. I just didn't expect that there would be little trash at this time."

"Amazing! You've started to observe when you got off the car. You are on guard against Phoenix from the beginning. You don't trust her, right? But I remember you said admired her, didn't you?"

Yanice still remembered what Nicole had said about Phoenix. She just couldn't understand why Nicole's attitude suddenly changed. What had happened in the past three days?

Nicole watched out as she whispered, "Yanice, how can you tell that Phoenix has feelings for Samuel?"

If Samuel hadn't told her, Nicole wouldn't have thought about it. However, Yanice seemed to have known it from the beginning and everything she had said or had done was for Nicole's sake. Thinking of this, Nicole sighed.

Yanice said indifferently, "It's obvious, but somehow you didn't notice it. I noticed her feelings for Samuel when Samuel asked her to protect me. If she were really just a subordinate, she wouldn't agree to protect me for the sake of her friends. But she compromised. She even took such a big risk to bring us into the palace, either sincerely or with ulterior motives. I can tell from the guy with her, Rey, that she is a good leader. She can make people willingly die for her, so it shouldn't be difficult for her to send us away. When the snowstorm just began, with the help from outside the palace, she had a good chance of sending us away. However, she did not do so. Instead, she brought us to the danger center. So, there is a possibility that she wants us to die."

Nicole sighed and said, "Yanice, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Samuel trusts Phoenix the most and I am just an outsider. It's inappropriate for me to say this. I didn't want to get into trouble."

Yanice had experienced a lot over the years. If it weren't for the fact that Nicole was William's niece, perhaps she wouldn't even have said this to her.

Nicole thought that she had experienced a lot and should be able to see through many things, but she did not expect that Yanice still knew more than her.

"But if you're right, how come Samuel doesn't figure it out?"

"That's because Phoenix is Samuel's most trusted subordinate, or one of the closest friends, if you will. He won't think about that at all."

Yanice's guess was correct.

Nicole nodded and said, "Yes, she saved Samuel's life."

"Oh, I see."

After they finished speaking, the searching people arrived. They were standing just outside the bin, so Nicole and Yanice stopped talking.

From the crack, Nicole saw two teams of guards, who should be in charge of security. They looked at each other, then quickly parted and walked away.

It seemed that the guards weren't here to kill them, but they weren't here to pick them up either.

To prove her conjecture, Nicole whispered, "Janice, can we stay here for a while longer?"
