Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 313 Pay the Tuition Actively

Nicole somewhat restrained her emotions. Looking at Xander's painting in Mrs. Don's room, she

thought about how clear and real the dream she had was.

She breathed, "Dad, don't worry. I won't let anything happen to Grandma and the Dons. Absolutely

not!"

After saying that, she stood up and sat back on the main seat of the sofa. Then, she said indifferently.

"Come in!"

The door was opened, and Petty walked in.

Unlike a few days ago, Petty had lost a lot of weight and looked more haggard. When she saw Nicole,

she was somewhat excited. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

"Are you saying that Zac is still alive? Is that true?"

Her voice trembled.

She had seen him die with her own eyes. However, she could not take his corpse away. Later, it was

Zama who said that she would help her retrieve his ashes, yet there had been no news.

Some people said that Zac had been torn into pieces by Samuel, while others said that Zac's ashes

had been scattered into the sea. No matter what, Petty could not accept it. This was also one of the

main reasons why she followed Zama to go against Samuel and Nicole without hesitation.

She couldn't let Zac die without a complete corpse or a burial ground. She had to seek justice for Zac.

Hearing the news that Zac was still alive, Petty was excited with anticipation.

Nicole looked at Petty. Although Petty was detestable for doing many wrong things, she had always

been faithful to Zac in love.

She couldn't help but admire Samuel's way of doing things. He knew how to grab onto a person's

weakness and let that person work for him willingly.

Back then, it was Samuel who deliberately let Petty go. Keeping Zac was also Samuel's plan. Now, it

seemed that everything went as Samuel planned.

He was like an unhurried chess player who had everyone's movements under his control.

Nicole felt that she still had a lot to learn from Samuel, but now was not the time to think about it.

Seeing that Petty's eyes were filled with desire, Nicole took out her phone and showed the video from

Samuel to Petty.

Zac was recovering from his injuries in a sanatorium. But he seemed to be doing well with more flesh

on his face.

Petty held the phone and watched the video greedily, tears finally flowing down her cheeks.

Her eyes had been ruined, but it could not stop her from being excited in the slightest.

"He's alive! He's alive! Where is he? Where is he now?"

Petty looked at Nicole excitedly.

"I can't tell you where he is right now, but if you can help me, I promise you that I'll let you two go when

it's done," Nicole said indifferently, "I can ask Samuel to keep you alive and help you go abroad. You

can leave the Seapolis City with a sum of money and find a place where no one knows you to spend

the rest of your lives. After that, the grudges between you and me, and the Greens will be dealt with."

Petty suddenly quieted down.

She looked straight at Nicole, trying to find something in her eyes. But Nicole's eyes were clear, and

she was frank.

"Can I trust you?"

Petty finally opened her mouth, clearly regaining her composure.

Nicole was a little nervous, but she said indifferently, "You can choose not to believe me and continue

to do all the bad things with Zama. However, at that time, it will be impossible for you and Zac to be

together. If we can, we might erase Zac's memory. He may never remember you."

"Are you threatening me?"

Petty responded with a sudden eruption of malice.

Finn was uneasy outside. He wanted to come in and stop Petty but was stopped by Nicole.

"Whatever you say, it's up to you. Since I was able to save Zac in that situation, it can be seen how Zac

treats me now. If you want to go against him, do as you please. But you have to think it over."

Nicole said calmly, but her palms were already covered in sweat.

That was what Samuel taught her, wasn't it?

There was nothing wrong with what she said, right?

Right now, she couldn't rehearse anything. She could only play it by ear and pretend to be calm.

However, forced by Petty, Nicole still felt pressured.

Petty stared at Nicole. She was considering how much truth Nicole had in her words, but the Zac on

her phone was real. She could even tell that Zac no longer hated the world. He was calm.

Could it be that Zac chose to work with Samuel and Nicole?

Petty could not figure it out. She had been staring at the video, her eyes filled with greed and longing.

Nicole knew the gaze. As a woman, she understood Petty's current mood, but they had different

standpoints. She couldn't be so kind-hearted.

Petty finally compromised.

"Alright, I promise you. As your insider, I will help Zama and find what you want. But you have to keep

your promise. Once this is done, let me and Zac go. We don't need any documents from you. As long

as you give us a sum of money, we will leave the Seapolis City and never show up before you and

Samuel."

"Okay, I promise!"

Nicole was secretly delighted without showing it.

Petty asked doubtfully, "Does what you said work?"

"What do you think? Samuel can die for me, what else can't he listen to me?"

Hearing Nicole's words, Petty finally felt relieved.

"Can I copy this video?"

"I'm afraid not. This video is Zac's current state. Zama is suspicious. If she sees it, there's no need for

us to carry out the plan. There are too many people involved in it. I can't give you this video for the time

being."

Nicole knew Petty wanted the video, but she couldn't agree in a moment of weakness.

Obviously, Petty did not act tough to obtain the video. When she heard Nicole's words, she greedily

looked at Zac on the video, as if she was trying to memorize him in her mind.

Nicole did not urge her.

After a long time, Petty returned the phone to Nicole and said softly, "Zama is very suspicious, so I

can't guarantee that I can get the first-hand information. But I will try my best. Before that, you guys

need to do something to me. Otherwise, she won't believe me if I show up in front of her in such good

condition."

Hearing Petty's words, Nicole nodded and said, "Finn will see to it."

With that, Finn left with Petty.

When Nicole was left alone in the room again, her back was covered in a cold sweat.

Usually, she would see Samuel plan and command with an easy grace. She always felt that it was

effortless. Only today did she realize that this required a strong mind.

Nicole collapsed on the sofa.

"Don't worry, Grandma," she murmured as she looked at the photo that Mrs. Don had placed on the

nightstand. "I must be strong to protect you, the Dons, and my current parents. I won't let those close to

me suffer the slightest harm."

Mrs. Don was smiling faintly in the photo as if she was responding to Nicole.

Not long after, a heart-wrenching sound came from Petty. It was apparent that she had been tortured.

Although this woman was a bit bad, her feelings for Zac was still worthy of respect.

When Nicole called Samuel, he asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"Look at you. You always say that. Why am I so weak in your eyes?"

Nicole was completely relaxed.

Samuel sensed something from her tone and felt relieved.

"Isn't it your first time? So, I'm worried that you'll have stage fright."

"I'm a little nervous, indeed, but everything goes as we planned. Samuel, do take care of Zac. I

promised Petty that I will let them go. Although they have done a lot of wrongs, they are still a couple of

miserable lovers, so...."

Nicole was not cruel enough, but she couldn't help it.

Samuel seemed to have known that she would say this long ago. He said, "I know. If everything is

done, just come back. Mrs. Don must have left the operating room. The person she longs to see is you.

Asking Finn to bring you back will create a chance for Petty and Zama."

"Got it, teacher."

Nicole called in a mischievous voice.

Samuel found the address “teacher” pleasant.

"Good. Then you should study hard with me and not be slack with the tuition."

"Tuition? What tuition?"

Nicole was amazed.

But Samuel smiled, "If you want to learn it well, you have to sleep with your master. Haven't you heard

of this rule?"

Nicole blushed with embarrassment.

"What are you thinking about every day? Well, leave it. Finn and I will go to the hospital. Are you

there?"

"I'm back in the ward. I’m worried about Zoe."

"Okay, I'll go back and see the old lady."

"Be careful."

"Okay!"

After speaking some sweet words, Nicole and Samuel hung up the phone.

The tiredness was swept away.

She stood up and arranged the old lady's photo. Then, she looked at the old lady's room again before

she left.

Finn was already waiting outside. Seeing Nicole come out, he hurriedly stepped forward and said,

"Everything is going as planned."

"Tell our men to relax the inside guard but enhance the outside. We will leave the Don's now."

"Okay!"

Finn immediately understood and shouted, "Madam, it seems that Mrs. Don is out of the operating

room. Shall we go over and take a look?"

"Go!"

Nicole was so anxious that she almost fell when she heard the news. Fortunately, Finn helped her.

She stumbled and said, "Hurry up and bring me over. God knows how she is now. I have to see her."

As she spoke, Finn and Nicole rushed out.

An inconspicuous maid walked out from the kitchen. After seeing that, a trace of contemplation flashed

through her eyes.
