Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 430

Zoe then realized that she had done something wrong.

She obediently followed behind Nicole. But from time to time, she looked at Lucas with tears in his eyes. Suddenly, Zoe asked in a low voice, "Mommy, did I do something wrong?"

"No, you’re a good kid."

Nicole picked up Zoe and meanwhile pulled the suitcase out of the living room.

Jacob was waiting outside. Seeing Nicole come out, he hurriedly took the suitcase from her.

"Ms. Nicole, please leave it to me."

"OK, thank you."

Then Nicole carried Zoe into the car.

Zoe suddenly felt that the pineapple buns in her hands were not so delicious.

She looked out of the window and asked nervously, "Mommy, when are we coming back? Lucas didn't mean to lie to you. And I was deliberately going against Lucas just now. Maybe his stomach hurts."

Hearing what Zoe said, Nicole touched her hair and said, "Lucas is fine with your daddy there. Well, you don’t like to go to your grandma's with me?"

"No, you have quarreled with daddy, and Lucas is very sad. It is not good for us to leave just like this, isn’t it?"

Zoe finally understood something.

Nicole replied gently, "I didn't quarrel with your daddy. We just disagree with each other. Did you see that I quarrel with him?"

"No. I heard one of my friends from kindergarten say that her daddy and mommy quarrel every day. They shout at and even fight with each other. But you and daddy didn’t do that."

Zoe tilted her head, trying her best to understand the concept of quarrel.

In her memory, her daddy and mommy had never quarreled before.

"That's right, so your daddy and I didn't quarrel."

Nicole calmly cajoled Zoe.

She did not quarrel with Samuel, but they had fallen into the silent treatment.

As Nicole thought this, she felt somewhat uncomfortable and even heartbroken.

Jacob got in the car and heard what Nicole said to Zoe. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he gave up.

The car drove towards the Bush’s.

Zoe was still thinking about what happened just before. But when they passed by a fried-chicken shop, she suddenly asked for a drumstick. So, Jacob had to stop the car and buy some for her.

At that moment, nothing was as important as a drumstick to Zoe.

Looking at her daughter being such a foodie, Nicole was touched.

‘Thank God, Zoe was fine!’

It was a close call.

Just as Nicole was holding Zoe and waiting for Jacob, the car door suddenly opened. Then, a man squeezed in, startling Nicole.

She hugged Zoe tightly and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

"Me..."

Tim hurriedly took off his hat.

Seeing that it was Tim, Nicole let out a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing? Why are you sneaky? Someone may gossip that something has happened between you and me."

The news about the photo spread throughout the Seapolis City. Although Samuel had explained it through Swift, people might don’t believe it. Moreover, people would say something about the interaction between Tim and Nicole.

Now that Tim had suddenly appeared, Nicole was naturally a little worried.

She looked around and realized that no one was paying attention, then she heaved a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Tim smiled bitterly, "Are you really afraid that people would gossip about you and me?"

"No, but it is special times. I..."

Nicole realized that she was making a fuss.

Previously, when she was staying at Tim's casino, Nicole didn't scruple like this.

She was not afraid that others would suspect her relationship with Tim, but afraid that Samuel would suspect and misunderstand.

Thinking of Samuel, Nicole was very upset.

Although Nicole was angry that Samuel used her child and her, she still couldn't help but think about Samuel at that moment.

Such a behavior annoyed Nicole, but she was helpless to it.

Seeing Nicole being confused, Tim couldn't help but ask, "Hey, What’s wrong?"

"I’m OK, I'm going to take Zoe back to my mother's. Why are you here? You can just give me a call."

"If I can get through to you, I won't follow behind your car."

Tim stunned Nicole by saying that.

She suddenly touched her pocket and realized that her phone was missing.

Perhaps Nicole had left it in the Green's.

Nicole was a little annoyed. She was too careless.

"Sorry, I might have left the phone at home."

"Forget it."

Tim could tell that Nicole was unhappy and encountered something bad. However, he didn't point it out. Tim just whispered, "I can't stay here for too long. That Jacob isn't easy to deal with, and I don't want to see him. Earlier, I told Samuel that I had something to tell you, but he didn't allow me to see you. It's fine if it's just something ordinary. But it is a little tricky, so I have to tell you."

Hearing Tim's words, Nicole paused for a moment.

Samuel didn't mention anything about Tim wanting to see her.
