Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 1091

It would be impossible for Nicole to shake off Viola's ruthless gaze. To be exact, Nicole had also been paying attention to Viola the moment she entered the room.

Viola was colder than before and also crueler, which was hard to be disguised.

Nicole looked at Viola with a faint smile and said, "Why are you looking at me like you were going to eat me? What did I do wrong?"

Edwin frowned.

"What are you doing? Why are you staring at Nicole? It was me who had punished you. What? Did I get you wrong? You have a problem with me?"

Edwin said in such a harsh tone that Viola was immediately weakened, "No, Grandfather, how can I have a problem with you?"

"Stop being a wolf in a sheep’s clothing. If you weren't Audrey's daughter, I wouldn't care about you at all. You father didn't teach you well. How can you fit yourself in the society if you don't change your behaviors now?"

When Edwin thought of Dominic, he was furious.

Viola didn't dare to say anything. She lowered her head quickly, making it impossible for others to see her expression. No one knew what she was thinking.

Seeing this, Nicole only smiled slightly and said, "Grandfather, don't be angry. She still needs time. After all, she is my sister and one of the Shaws. She represents our family’s image, right?"

Hearing this, Viola quickly raised her head and glanced at Nicole with anger and coldness.

Nicole was clearly prompting Edwin to punish her, and she wasn’t trying to conceal her intention at all.

Nicole didn't care about whether Viola hated her or not. Why would they pretend to be sisters with so many contradictions between them?

She sneered and said to Edwin, "Grandfather, I have something I want to tell you. Shall we go to the study?"

Viola frowned again.

What did Nicole want to say to Edwin?

She even wanted to say it behind her back!

Was she thinking about urging Edwin to punish her again?

Viola felt that everything Edwin had done was a result of Nicole’s temptation, so she hated Nicole even more.

One day, she would make Nicole kneel in front of her and beg her!

Nicole didn't care what Viola was thinking. She looked at Edwin with anticipation.

Edwin certainly wouldn’t reject Nicole. He quickly put down the newspaper and smiled, "Alright, let's go to the study."

"Grandfather, take your time."

Nicole stood up and helped Edwin to his feet.

Edwin laughed and said, "I am indeed an old man, my dear Nicole, take care of me more!"

"You are not old at all. You become more vigorous with age."

Nicole was good at flattering Edwin.

Viola was so angry that she almost gritted her teeth when she saw how happy they were.

Nicole did not have the mood to argue with Viola now. She helped Edwin into the study and locked the door.

As Nicole acted so cautiously, Edwin's eyes darkened a little.

Viola’s presence really made things worse.

"Are you keeping an eye on her?"

"Sort of."

Nicole did not deny.

She helped Edwin to a chair and sat down. Then, she looked at Edwin seriously and asked, "Grandfather, do you remember what you gave Grandmother as the betrothal gift?"

Edwin stunned.

His eyes became a little blurry.

That old woman!

It seems to be a long time ago.

Seeing that Edwin had fallen into his memories, Nicole did not urge him. Instead, she walked to the side and took out a tea set to start making tea for him.

Edwin's tried to memorize for a long time, and he finally remembered what his wife looked like at the first sight.

At that time, she wore a shabby red cotton jacket. She was defined as a reactionary person due to her family, so she did not dare to look up at people when she walked.

How did he get to know her?

Oh, right. It was because someone was pulling at her clothes while criticizing her, so fiercely that her clothes were ripped up to shreds. At that time, as he was close to her, he was sympathized to the poor woman, so he involuntarily took off his coat and wrapped it around her.

At that time, she looked at him with a flash of gratefulness. Because his family enjoyed great power, Edwin was not punished for this action. Instead, she endured all the punishment for him.

At that time, people could not tell right from wrong. For outsiders, Edwin's kindness was the result of her deliberate seduction, so she was criticized even more.

"Grandfather, take a look. Is this the pocket watch?"

Edwin suddenly stunned, and then he became excited.

He took the pocket watch and flipped it through the back. He could still clearly see his name, but they were somewhat smoothed out. It was obviously responsible for usual rubbing.

Edwin was filled with tears.

"Why is this pocket watch with you? When she left me, she didn't take anything except this pocket watch. I..."

He choked again.

Nicole was very sad.

She walked up and hugged Edwin. She whispered, "Grandfather, Grandmother has always had you in her heart. I heard that until the moment she died, she still held this pocket watch in her hand."

"She is really too stubborn. Even if she had expressed a bit regret, I wouldn't let her go."

Edwin said with regret.

Nicole didn't know how to comfort him, she could only say, "Grandfather, I took this pocket watch from someone. She asked me to give it to you."

"Who?"

Edwin was still unable to recover when he heard Nicole say, "Sally."

Edwin raised his head when he heard the name.

"Who?"

"Sally, she said that she's your eldest daughter and my mother's twin sister. I've seen her before. She looks exactly like my mother, and the DNA test proved that."

Edwin stunned.

His eyes flashed with disbelief, surprise, and then ecstasy.

He grabbed Nicole's hand and trembled slightly.

"Where is she? Why didn't she come back? Since she knew that she was one of the Shaws, why didn't she come back to see me? How many years do I still have to live?"

Edwin's reaction was within Nicole's expectations. This was also the reason why Nicole had waited so long and was sure that Sally would not be harmful to Edwin before she dared to tell him.

However, seeing Edwin like this, and given Sally's identity, Nicole hesitated.

Was it really okay to tell him the truth?
