Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1605

Seeing Nicole like this, Samuel knew she felt terrible. He said, “Stay with Lucas for a couple of days. Morty will come and take him back in two days. What are you gonna do then?”

“I don’t know. You? You transferred all your properties now?”

Nicole knew Samuel had been quite busy and she had to ask.

Samuel smiled, “Things need to be taken slowly. Don’t worry. But I’m gonna go abroad after a while. I got some things to deal with.”

Nicole nodded.

Now they were in unusual times. It was natural that Samuel needed to go out. Nicole just wanted him to be safe.

“Take care of yourself. If anything happens, call me.”

“Okay.”

“I’ll help you pack up.”

“No need. I’ll be back in two days. It’s not business. It’s kind of personal.”

Nicole froze.

“Personal?”

“Yes. One of my comrades passed away. We used to be very close. I want to see him for the last time.”

Samuel didn’t hide this from her.

They were soldiers and it was normal to sacrifice. But it was still devastating.

They devoted themselves to their nation and people. But for their families, it was cruel. Now Samuel wanted to say goodbye to him.

Nicole couldn’t fully understand his feelings. But she knew he must go.

She turned around to fix his collar. She whispered, “I know it doesn’t help much for me to comfort you. But you have to look after yourself, okay? You’ve got your wife and children here.”

“I know. And you take care of yourself too. It’s completely okay not to get involved in Olivia’s decision. If you’re bored, you should talk with your parents or ask booth to talk with Olivia.”

“You don’t want them to divorce?”

Nicole stared at him and felt kind of sad.

Samuel shook his head, “It’s not up to us. We can only give them some advice. But it’s their call.”

“I get it.”

Nicole nodded but was still a little depressed.

Samuel knew it would take a long time for her to be happy again. But he was glad that Lucas was here to keep her company.

Nicole packed some clothes and food for him and drove him to the airport.

Samuel was heartbroken to see Nicole so reluctant to see him off. If he didn’t get this bad news, he wouldn’t want to leave her either.

Looking from the window on the plane, he could hardly see Nicole’s figure. Samuel forced himself to stop looking for her, which grieved him very much.

After a few hours’ flight, he arrived at a shabby small town.

Samuel took a taxi and went to his comrade’s home, only to see Jacob was here.

Jacob paused a little when he saw Samuel but then he quickly saluted Samuel.

“Mr. Green.”

“Haven’t slept well lately?”

Seeing him so toilworn, Samuel couldn’t help asking.
