Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 521

It was actually a strange man who answered the phone!

Nicole was clearer than anyone about who were in the family. Now that there was suddenly a stranger, her heart pounded uncontrollably.

How was Laurel?

Did she also fall under Vincent's control?

If that was the case, wouldn't it be quite inappropriate for her to be with Tim now?

Nicole hurriedly got up, but bumped into Tim who came out of the cloakroom.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Nicole's expression was a little unnatural, Tim couldn't help but ask.

"I have to go back. Laurel might be in danger."

Saying that, Nicole got up and was about to leave, but Tim grabbed her by the arm.

"What exactly happened? Since you can come here with me, it means that you have no other choice. Otherwise, you wouldn't risk your reputation, as I know how much you care about Samuel. And your coming with me shows that you cannot return to the Greens for the time being, so what are you going to do now?"

Well, Tim was actually quite smart. Perhaps, if he stopped behaving like a playboy, he could be on a par with Samuel.

Nicole looked at Tim and said thoughtfully, "I shouldn't tell you about the Greens, nor should I trouble you, but now I really have no other choice."

"Tell me. You know I would never flinch at your problems, no matter they're related to the Greens or whomever."

The more Tim said this, the more Nicole felt that she owed him too much. She couldn't give Tim the love he wanted, but she kept dragging him down, which made her very uncomfortable.

"Actually, you don't have to be so good to me."

"I owe my life to you. And I should do whatever I can for you. I know what you're thinking. You're afraid that you will owe me too much and you won't be able to pay it back in the future, right? Nicole, listen carefully. I, Tim, owe you this life. If it wasn't for you when I was little, I would have died in that fire. How could I survive to be this Mr. Tim today? Even if I like you, that's my own business. It has nothing to do with you. You don't need to feel burdened. It's fine if you treat me like a brother or a friend. As long as you still need me, it's the best for me."

Nicole didn't dare to look back at his gaze.

He was so straightforward.

"Thank you."

Nicole had so many to say, but in the end, she could only say these two words to express her feelings.

"It's too much. There's no need for us to thank each other. Tell me, what's going on?"

Tim pulled Nicole to the bedside and sat down.

Nicole's nervousness eased somewhat.

"I'm worried that Laurel might have been controlled."

Nicole softly told Tim about Vincent, and about Zoe being taken away by him.

Tim frowned slightly.

"Are you really talking about Vincent?"

Tim's question left Nicole a bit stunned.

"Who else could it be if it wasn't him?"

Nicole smiled bitterly.

If possible, she also hoped that the despicable guy was not Vincent. After all, it would be much easier if he wasn't a relative.

However, Tim still frowned and said, "Although I don't like Samuel very much, I have to say that I, Samuel, and Vincent grew up together. We messed around together when we were kids. No matter what, Vincent would not do this to Samuel. Moreover, he respects Laurel the most. There's no chance for him to do this to her."

Hearing Tim, Nicole sighed and said, "But this is the situation now. Perhaps Vincent was not like this when he was little, but now, he is really an enigma to me. Maybe he really likes Riley. And after Riley died, he pinned all the blame on Samuel and me. It's not impossible that he has changed."

"Even if it was because of Riley, Vincent would not do anything to Samuel."

Tim was so sure and that made Nicole somewhat surprised.

"Why do you say that?"

Tim pondered for a while and said, "Perhaps he would estrange with Samuel because of Riley, he will definitely not harm Samuel and the people he cares about. Moreover, the Vincent I know would never harm women and children. Even if we haven’t been in touch for five years, I'm sure he wouldn't attack you and your child for what he wants. In Vincent's opinion, matters between men should be settled by men only. If what you said is true -- he really likes Riley and hates you and Samuel because of her -- then he will directly come to you and fight Samuel, regardless of life or death. He would never play tricks on his own family because of his love affairs. But judging from what you said, Vincent's every move is all planned in advance to lure you into the trap step by step. It doesn't look like his style. And Vincent loves children the most and will never harm his own son, even if there are all sorts of reasons!"

Nicole was slightly stunned.

"Are you sure you're talking about Vincent?"

"I'm one hundred percent sure. However, I can't see through Vincent now."

"What do you mean?"

Nicole's eyes suddenly narrowed. She seemed to have heard something hidden from Tim's words.

Tim just shook his head and said, "There is no basis for what we say now. I will take you to see someone."

"Who?"

"Swift Jerry."

Nicole was slightly stunned.

Only then did she remember that Tim had taken Swift away from the hospital after Swift tried to assassinate her.

"Where is she?"
