Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 293: Her Scalded Face

Nicole smiled at Zoe, “Zoe, look!”

“Wow, it's apple!”

Zoe smiled in delight.

Zoe loved apples, but she was not allowed to have as much as she wanted because of her kidney

disease. Sometimes she was only permitted to have only one.

So she felt so delighted when seeing apples.

“Though you can have some apples now, you still need to be limited in number as you just went

through operation.” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Mommy, come on...” Zoe pouted.

“lam doing this for your health. Listen to me, okay?” Nicole stroked her head gently.

“No...” Zoe tilted her head sullenly.

“Well, you can have one third of an apple.”

“Okay.”

Finally, they reached consensus. Then Nicole peeled 1/3 of an apple for Zoe.

Laurel said to the carer beside her, “Watch Zoe. I need to go out to have a talk with Nicole.”

Nicole was a bit surprised upon hearing that. But she said nothing and smiled at Zoe again. Then she

left the ward with Laurel.

Laurel let her to the conference room which was organized by her.

Nicole didn’t know the conversation between Soseph and Laurel, but she felt nothing wrong for what

she had done. So she had been determined she would never admit her fault even blamed by Laurel.

Seeing the stubborn and repulsive look on her face, Laurel sighed, “Nicole, you are the wife of Samuel

and also the hostess of Night Elf Empire. Why not restrain yourself?”

Hearing that, Nicole raised her head to look at Laurel with a sullen face.

“Don't stare at me like that! You are now a mother of two kids and you are even jealous of a young girl

like Soseph? Though she might be a bit infatuated with Samuel because of his handsome look, you

should be more confident of yourself.”

Nicole was a bit aggrieved.

“No, Ms. Laurel! Soseph told me she had feelings for Samuel and she wanted him. I told her she could

ask anything from me except Samuel. After all, she saved Zoe, but...”

“You have no idea what to do? You are the hostess of Night Elf Empire, and you were pissed off by a

girl and you even wanted to slap her! You should know you are wrong about this matter.”

“You know I didn’t hit her yet.”

Nicole was overwhelmed with grievance. She did not slap Soseph, but she was also scalded by the hot

water splashed by Soseph. She didn't want to make Zoe worried, so she went out to change her

clothes and put on a light make-up.

But the make-sup seemed to sting her face and she felt burning hurt.

However, she still managed to hold back her urge to tell Laurel the truth, in case she would be blamed

by Laurel for being narrow-minded.

Laurel seemed to notice her grievance. She sighed to persuade her, “You should know about what you

should do then. After all, Soseph is still the savior of Zoe. It's our duty to treat her well.”

“Okay.” Nicole replied.

But she felt her face itching.

She couldn't help but scratch her face, but it still felt badly hurt.

“Don't move.” Laurel seemed to notice something wrong.

Nicole stood still.

Laurel got closer to look at her face. Then she said with a bit of anger, “Look at you! You face is getting

allergic to the make-up and it's burning red. Get rid of the make-up! Or you will ruin your face!”

“Remember, Samuel will always love you no matter you are good at putting on make-up or not. Now

get to get rid of the make-up and consult the doctor for suitable ointment.”

Nicole felt pretty aggrieved, but she was aware that there was a big problem with her face.

The hot water scalded her face and the make-up made it even worse.

She said nothing but ran to the doctor's office.

Shaking her head, Laurel made a call to Samuel.

“What's the matter, mom?”

“Are you feeling better?”

“lam much better. Don't worry, mom.”

“You should learn to take care of yourself. Don't always make your old mom worry about you. Get back

to the company as soon as you recover. I can't handle such a big company.”

Samuel smiled while hearing that.

“Okay, I got it.”

Laurel smiled and the continued, “Call Nicole when you have time. She is still a girl needed to be cared.

It is inevitable that she will feel a bit depressed after going through so many things. As her husband,

you should try to stay by her side or at least you need to have a talk with her often through the phone.”

Samuel was a bit stunned while hearing that.

“Mom, what happened?”

“Nothing serious. But your handsome face drove someone crazy!”

“What? I drove someone crazy?”

“What if you were a bit less handsome, perhaps Soseph would not have been so infatuated with you.

And even Nicole was less confident of herself because of her infatuation with you. She went to put on a

make-up but her face was allergic to it. I made her consult the doctor as soon as possible in case her

face will be ruined.”

“What? How are her now?”

“Don't worry. She is just a bit allergic to the make-up and her face turned red. She would be fine after

applying some ointment. You should be more concerned about her and talk to her more often. It will be

also a bit unbearable for her to take care of two kids at a time.”

“Okay, I got it mom.”

“Oh, by the way, I have intended to make Soseph the adopted daughter of mine. Since she saved Zoe,

it would be okay if we make her the aunt of Soseph. But I heard that you want to make her the adopted

sister of Nicole, right?”

Samuel sighed, “Mom, as you have mentioned, I look so attractive that she was so infatuated with me.

If I keep her in my family, it would be a mess. I did this to maintain a harmonious family.”

“Alright, just do as you said. But would Nicole's parents accept your request?”

“Just let Nicole deal with it.”

“You brat, how careless you are! You know that there was a grudge between Nicole and Soseph. How

could you leave it to Nicole alone? And her parents haven't known that you were injured and Nicole

had been back. Just let me deal with it.”

It suddenly occurred to Samuel that Couple Bush just got the news that they were actually not the

biological parents of Nicole.

Since Nicole’s parents now knew nothing about those unexpected things, including the matter of

Soseph, Samuel decided to leave them to Laurel.

“Mom, thank you. And what about Zama?”

“Deal with it on your own.”

Actually, Laurel had the urge to kill Zama. However, concerning the fact that Zama was the biological

mother of both Samuel and Vincent. She didn't think she should intervene for the sake of them.

She'd better leave it to both of them to decide since they had grown up.

“Okay mom, I will just leave the matter between Nicole and Soseph to you.”

“Alright, don’t worry.”

Samuel then hung up the phone, but he felt really uneasy.

Why did Nicole put on a light make-up?

He just left and then Nicole put on make-up. What was it for?

Was there anything wrong between Nicole and Soseph?

Samuel immediately made a call to Nicole.

Nicole was removing the make-up with cotton pads.

Her face was burning red, and even started to bleed.

“Mrs. Green, how can you apply make-up on your scalded face! Aren't you afraid of ruining your face?”

“I just want to cover the scaled in case I might scare my kid. Alright, doctor, please check it for me and

tell me what kind of ointment shall I need.”

The doctor shook his head and started to write prescription.

At that time, she suddenly noticed that her phone rang. Nicole felt her heart surge with grievance while

seeing it was a call from Samuel.
