Don't Try to Escape, My Wife!

Chapter 267: 267 Why so Nice to Me

Nicole was nervous, so were the women inside, all looking helplessly at Nicole.

For her, it was an accident to come here, and to meet so many poor women was out of her

expectations. But could she ignore them?

Nicole denied it immediately.

No matter who was behind Zama, she would not be complicit in the crime.

Fortunately, the two men only searched the area and then quickly backed out, probably in real fear of

Zama's return.

How powerful was Zama?

Even the staff in the base were afraid of her?

Or had Zama been around since the base was built?

Nicole wasn't sure, but she was thinking about it all the time.

When the sound of footsteps died away a little, Nicole said to the women behind her, "I'll get you out of

here, but I'm not sure if you can get out of here. Everybody just scatter and run when you are out, and

do not run in one direction, okay?"

Everyone nodded.

For them, Nicole was the biggest hope for getting them out.

Nicole opened the wooden door. It was cold outside, but very disturbing.

She was the first to come out to check he surroundings, and when she found nobody there, she waved

and let the people behind her come out with her.

Nicole remembered the way she had come, and she quickly led the women to a place.

It was getting a little light outside. There must be cameras around here.

Nicole took a look and noticed an electronic eye nearby. She quickly picked up something to hide it.

"Once I do that, they'll soon find out something's wrong here, and then everyone will scatter and run.

Just run out of here as much as you can."

"Thank you, girl."

They cried with joy.

They hadn't fled yet, but they saw a glimmer of hope.

Nicole wasn't too sure of their gratitude. It was only the first step.

After telling them the escape route, Nicole quickly blocked the camera and ran out.

There was a little girl in her late teens, not too tall, who ran out with Nicole at the same time Nicole ran

out.

Everyone had left, and nobody wanted to stay, except this little girl, who was following Nicole.

Nicole hadn't noticed her at first, but when she found the girl was following her, she was a bit hesitant.

"Girl, you can't follow me."

Nicole was afraid of dragging her, but the little girl shook her head and did not speak.

It was still dark, and Nicole could not quite see her face, but she was a bit helpless for the girl’s

stubborn.

"I have other fish to fry. I really can't take you with me."

She was in danger as the entire base was looking for her, and she had to avoid Macon and tried to get

through Finn, but now this little girl was following her, it was likely to drag her.

But the little girl just shook her head and did not leave.

At this point, Nicole couldn't just throw the little girl out.

She sighed and said, "If you meet too many people, just run away and leave me alone, got it?"

The little girl nodded; her eyes shone bright in the early morning.

She should have very beautiful big eyes.

Nicole could not leave her alone this time, let the girl follow her closely and ran fast toward the shore

behind.

Only there could she have a glimmer of hope.

"Can you swim?"

The little girl shook her head.

Nicole was a little depressed. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The little girl couldn’t swim, then how could they leave?

At this point, Nicole noticed a lot of people coming this way.

The beach was her way out here, and if she were Macon, she would have guessed she was going to

the beach when she noticed that the camera was blocked.

What could she do?

To come to them herself?

Or run into the mountains to find a way?

Nicole didn't know. She felt like she was facing a tough choice.

In the past, Samuel was here every time she was in danger. She just needed to follow Samuel. But

now, what should she do?

Nicole stopped, and the little girl stopped.

By this time there were already a lot of people running towards the sea.

The sight of the sea gave them hope, and it would be better to die at sea than to be sold abroad.

Nicole's sudden stop sent the little girl reeling, and she almost ran into Nicole, but she stopped at the

last moment.

"Are you afraid? If I turned and ran back, would you still be with me?"

Nicole looked at the little girl.

It was not just about her; it was also about the little girl's safety. The little girl's being with her gave her a

sense of responsibility, even though everyone had their own destiny.

The little girl blinked at Nicole as if she understood her, nodding her head in spite of her bewilderment.

"Yes!"

Her voice was young, but firm.

Nicole sighed and said, "I don’t know what would happen if I run back. I'm actually the one they're

looking for. If you run out with them, you might have a chance of survival, but following me is

dangerous. Are you sure you want to follow me?"

The little girl nodded again.

Nicole had no alternative but to take her hand and hide in the woods, turning to run into the mountains

before the Macon men arrived.

The little girl's hands were cold.

Nicole thought about her daughter Zoe.

If she couldn’t get out and died here, what would happen to Zoe? What about Lucas?

At that moment she was more or less complaining about her own imprudence. Would it be better to go

back and see Zoe at first?

But thinking about what Zama had said and the situation she and Zoe were in, she had no choice.

Nicole had never been able to figure out why she had always been chased after. She just wanted to

live a simple life with Samuel.

Were some people really that bad?

Zama knew Zoe's identity, but she still refused to let the poor child go. What was on her mind?

With that in mind, Nicole took the little girl and ran off into the mountains.

The sound of a car engine was heard outside, and sure enough, Macon's men were still following.

There was a plop on the beach. She didn't know if someone had jumped into the sea or if there had

been an argument, but it was very chaotic.

By this time Nicole had no time to care what happened to the others.

She took the little girl and ran into the mountains and then she felt lost.

The mountain was not that big, and when Samuel bought it, he didn't even want to own a country.

Nicole and the girl were on the run, but Nicole knew sooner or later they would come to an end.

They seemed to hear footsteps behind them as they tried to get farther away, and now they could only

move forward, not backward.

If the road ahead was a dead end, what would she do?

She was with an innocent girl. Nicole didn't know what to do with herself.

The girl looked at Nicole and whispered, "My name is Soseph."

"My name is Nicole."

Nicole said faintly, more or less smiling.

The girl looked at the girl. She was very young and had a pair of beautiful eyes. If it was not for this

time, she might not have known this girl named Soseph.

"There's something I have to tell you. There's an end to this forest, and I'm not familiar with it. If we get

to the end and we can't get out, you and I may have to stay here."

Nicole didn't want to say this. It was cruel to say this to an eighteen-year-old.

If she was an ordinary child, Soseph would probably cry now, but Soseph did not feel much painful, just

said faintly, "If that is the case, I do not blame you, after all, I persisted to follow you myself. You have

no responsibility to me."

Nicole had not expected the child to say so, and felt sad.

"I'll try my best to protect you."

"Why are you so nice to me?"

Soseph had a puzzled look in her eyes. Perhaps in her mind, she and Nicole didn't know each other,

and she didn’t blame Nicole even if she was left alone.

Nicole saw something in Soseph's eyes and said, with a strange pang, "After all, I led you this way."

"It has nothing to do with you. I chose to keep up myself."

Soseph had none of the cowardice of the other girls, and her happy-go-lucky personality only made

Nicole more uncomfortable.

How Nicole wished that she had not allowed the girl to follow her, but now it was too late to say

anything.

"Well, if someone comes around later, you can run while you can, and leave me alone, OK?"

Soseph just looked at Nicole and didn't speak.

Nicole thought they'd made a deal.

The noise outside grew louder, as if a crowd of people were closing in.

Nicole's hands were already sweaty.

With what she had learned, not to mention protecting Soseph, it might be difficult to protect herself.

They were both tired and hungry and thirsty now, and the dew of the morning drenched their clothes.

When the breeze came, it made them both shiver involuntarily.

Nicole saw that Soseph's lips were white, and without thinking, she took off her clothes and gave them

to her.

"Put it on."

The girl looked at Nicole in surprise, frowned slightly when Nicole had only a sweater inside. She

hesitated, but then took Nicole's clothes and put them on.

Nicole felt horribly cold, but the warmth of Soseph made her feel like she saw Zoe.

Just take Soseph as Zoe for a moment.

Nicole took her hand and ran quickly in one direction, but the more she ran, the clearer the sound

became.

Did they run straight to Macon's men?

Nicole's doubts grew.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a hand grabbed Nicole, making her want to scream, but the man covered

her mouth.
