Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 925

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that Nicole seemed frightened, Edwin hurriedly grabbed the phone.

"I'm okay."

Nicole smiled embarrassedly.

At this time, to be honest, no one wanted pick up the phone. However, Edwin could not pretend not to hear the phone ringing. He took a deep breath before answering the phone.

Nicole didn't know who called, but she noticed a sudden change in Edwin's expression.

"Grandfather, what happened?"

Nicole hurriedly asked.

Edwin's expression turned serious, and he whispered, "Morgan just now said that she had got your mother's physiological analysis. She didn't have cancer."

"What?"

Nicole became anxious.

"Why? Didn’t my mom have stage four stomach cancer? What is it now?"

Edwin shook his head, "I'm not sure. She said that if time permitted, we'd better check it ourselves. However, I am not in good health these days. Why don't you and Samuel go and take a look after lunch? No matter what, although your mother passed away, we still have to figure out her illness."

"Alright, Samuel and I will pay Morgan a visit."

Nicole immediately promised to go.

When Samuel came out, he saw that Nicole and Edwin looked gloomy. He thought that they were still in grief. He quickly said, "Grandfather, Nicole, what happened can't be changed, and we have to look forward, right? Besides, I believe that mother also doesn't want to see you like this."

Nicole nodded.

Edwin kept silent, but his look showed that he agreed with Samuel.

Samuel hurriedly filled a bowl of soup for Edwin.

"Grandfather, you haven't been eating much these past few days. The warm soup will be good for your stomach."

"Alright."

Edwin nodded and picked up chopsticks.

Before Nicole started, Samuel had brought up the special meal for pregnant women.

"I've searched the website to get the recipe. If it tastes not good, just go with it. I'll practice more."

His words made Nicole feel warm.

"It's fine. I think it tastes good."

She forced a smile and ate up all the food in front of her. She failed to enjoy the meal, but she still ate everything to encourage Samuel.

Seeing her like this, Samuel felt heartbroken even if he didn't say anything.

He wished that his wife could be happy every day, instead of being faced with danger and sorrow.

After Nicole stopped eating, Edwin also dropped the chopsticks.

Looking at Nicole and Samuel, he said in a low voice, "You guys go. I want to be alone."

"Grandfather..."

Nicole was afraid that Edwin would do something silly, but Samuel pulled her arm.

"Leave Grandfather alone for a while."

Then, he brought Nicole out of Edwin's.

Nicole kept silent ever since she left the house.

Knowing that she was grieved, Samuel didn't know what to say. When they passed a store, he whispered, "I heard that eating and shopping could fix a woman's bad mood. Why don't you go shopping? Think about our baby in your belly. We haven't prepared anything for it. Why don't we go to the store and buy something for the baby?"

Nicole was slightly stunned by Samuel's words. She nodded.

"That sounds good. I really didn't start preparing anything. I don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl."

"We can prepare both kinds. At least some will be useful, right?"

"That's right."

Nicole nodded and walked into the store with Samuel.

There were plentiful goods here. After seeing the cute baby clothes, Nicole calmed down a little bit.

She fixed her eyes on a halter top she picked up. She couldn't help but grin.

"So small? Will it fit a baby?"

Samuel asked doubtfully.

Nicole smiled and said, "The newborn baby is small."

"Really? I haven't seen any before."

When Nicole heard what Samuel said, she felt a little melancholy.

"When Lucas and Zoe were born, they were as tiny as kittens. Since they were twins, they couldn't get much nutrition in my belly. They weren't nourished enough so that they were just this big."

Nicole gesticulated as she spoke.

Samuel's eyes were filled with poignancy.

"I didn't take good care of you and our children."

"Zoe was who I worried about most. She stayed in an incubator for more than half a month, and I've received the critically ill notification more than once. I was really about to give up at that time."

Talking about everything she had endured, Nicole felt like crying.

"I really learned how hard it was to be a mother. I think mom was in the same mood when she was pregnant with me. She left me because she wanted to protect me. There are fathers in this world who do not love their children, but there are absolutely no such mothers. The hardship of conceiving and giving birth is truly not something an ordinary person can bear, and you will live with this experience for the rest of your life."
