Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! novel Chapter 909

"Mr. Green."

Samuel fell into a trance, so Laurence tried to wake him.

Samuel regained consciousness.

"I'll lead a team to the port nearby. Please handle things here."

Samuel turned around and left.

Although Laurence was also worried about them, seeing Samuel's action, he knew that he had enough men, so he didn't insist in following him.

After Audrey and Elvis got on the boat, he left it right away and used it to distract Samuel and his team. He took Audrey and unconscious Nicole to a different boat.

Audrey was by her side while Nicole was unconscious.

She stared at her and wiped her face from time to time. But she wondered what to say to her after she woke up.

She slept for so long, as if she didn't want to wake up, so that her mom didn't need to worry about what to say to her.

"What did you do to her? Why is she still sleeping?"

"Don't worry. I didn't drug her but just knocked her out. I have no idea why she still hasn't wake up yet. Maybe she is too weak, not like you and your husband." Elvis said indifferently.

Audrey glared at him coldly, and carefully looked after Nicole.

When Nicole woke up and saw Audrey, she wondered if she was still dreaming.

"Mom? Is that you? No, I must be dreaming."

Nicole smiled bitterly and wanted to get up, but she felt so painful from the back of her neck.

Then she remembered something.

"Elvis?!"

She suddenly sat up and felt extremely dizzy.

"Easy, Nicole. You need to rest."

She heard Audrey's voice again, and was totally stunned.

"Mom? Is it really you?"

Nicole looked at Audrey and touched her face with doubts.

It's warm!

Very warm!

Nicole was furious.

"Elvis, damn you! You've already caught me, why do you catch my mother?"

Nicole looked as if she was going to kill him, but Audrey pulled her back.

"I was willing to come."

"What?"

Nicole was confused.

Audrey pulled her back and smiled, "I want to see your father. I haven't seen him for more than twenty years."

Nicole felt a chill through her body.

She remembered that Elvis used to say so. But why did Audrey say the same thing now?

"Mom, don't be fooled by him! Dad was long gone. Elvis is taking advantage on our soft spot. Don't you understand?"

"I do. I know that your father was gone a long time ago. It's been more than twenty years, and his face was fading in my memory. So, if I can see him again before I die, then I can leave this world with no regret."

"Mom, what are you talking about? Be rational, please."

Nicole felt that Elvis had brainwashed her. She was furious and wished that she could kill him now.

Elvis smiled and said, "Your mother has always been rational, more than anyone. But that's also why she has lived such a miserable life, isn't it, Audrey?"

"Shut up! I'm talking to my daughter and it was none of your business."

Audrey's tone was tough.

All these years, Elvis was well respected by people around him, no one dared to talk to him like this.

At this age, Audrey had no concerns to reveal this incident.

This was the most embarrassing thing of her entire life.

"Is that why you broke up with father?"

Nicole suddenly asked.

Audrey's eyes were wet instantly.

"Yes. But he doesn't know about this, and I can't face him anymore. I am the love of his life, but his best friend saw me naked. I can never let go of such humiliation. At the same time, his family also wanted him to join the army. So, I took the chance to break up with him. But he told others that he broke up with me to join the army, in this way he could protect my reputation. Then I realized, maybe he knew what Elvis did to me."

Audrey started crying.

"At the time, I hated Elvis to my bones. I even thought about burning that notebook. But, I still couldn't do it. So, I sent it to your father which eventually cost his life."

"What do you mean?"

Nicole was getting nervous.

She seemed to have figured out something, but she wasn't sure of it.

Audrey wiped her tears away and said, "He had the notebook again, it was like a time bomb to him. Back in time, Elvis wasn't able to reaching him in the military area. But he somehow managed to gain the trust of someone powerful and started to arrange overseas missions to your father. Those were dangerous missions with his life at stake. So, he entrusted someone to bring the notebook back to me. In his letter, he asked me to protect it and gave it to the military if there was any chance. But I didn't want to give it to anyone. Then I found out that I was pregnant and I didn't dare to tell your grandpa. I started to prepare for the exam to be a diplomatic officer."

"I passed the exam, but I was also about to deliver. I knew that they would send me abroad to work, because I requested it. And it would be too dangerous to take you with me, so I sent you to the Bushes, and I went abroad alone with the notebook."

"I was almost killed for many times on the way going abroad. I received a letter from your father and he told me someone would meet up with me and took the notebook. But before I could meet that person, your father died first. I wanted to go back and attend his funeral. But the military said, his body was unrecognizable and according to DNA test, they were 80% sure that it was him."

Audrey took a deep breath and looked at Elvis and said, "Perhaps your father is really dead, but I want to know how he died. And I am sure Elvis had something to do with his death. He asked for the notebook in exchange of your father's body. I have devoted my life for the country. I care for nothing now, but to be with the love of my life."

Nicole suddenly realized something.

"Wait, you mean you brought the notebook with you?"

"Yes, I do. Your father and I are separated forever because of it. I am dying anyway, and I can't leave this time bomb to you. So, I brought it."

Audrey laughed as she spoke, but Nicole was getting worried.

"It doesn't feel right! Mom, something is wrong. He wants more than just the note book!"

Nicole looked at Elvis and saw he slightly raised the corners of his mouth. His smug was extremely irritating.
