Don't Try to Escape, My Wife! Chapter 835 It Is Just a House with Nothing

Heart in her mouth, Nicole was afraid that Edwin would suddenly wake up. Fortunately, Edwin wasn't
awakened and kept on sleeping.

She quickly stuffed that thing into her pocket and tiptoed out of Edwin's room.

Nicole did not see that the moment she closed the door, Edwin opened his eyes.

He looked at the drawer where the pass was put and sighed.

"Steve."

Edwin's voice was not loud, but a man opened the door and walked in. If Nicole were still here, she
would be able to tell that this man was the one who kidnapped her halfway over.

Edwin told him to go out to hide for a while. He was about to leave when he heard Edwin calling for
him, so he entered the room.

"Mr. Shaw, what can I do for you?"

"Follow her and make sure nothing happens to her. Nicole takes after Audrey and has a stubborn
temper. She is going to see Audrey now."

Edwin sighed again.

Steve frowned tightly.

"Mr. Shaw, Audrey will not agree to see her. Moreover, it will not be peaceful along the way. If anything
happens to Nicole, Samuel will..."

"That is why I asked you to follow her. I know that Audrey is stubborn, and she will not see Nicole.
However, if I keep Nicole here, she will be depressed. She is still carrying a child."



Edwin's hair had turned grey.

The person he wanted to see the most in his life was his daughter, but she never forgave him. Now that
he saw his granddaughter being so stubborn, it was as if he had seen Audrey.

Perhaps he was wrong back then and should not have separated a loving couple, but what was the use
of saying this now? There was nothing he could do to ask for Audrey's forgiveness.

Edwin did not want the estrangement between him and Audrey to affect Nicole. He liked this
granddaughter. After all, she was one of the very few relatives he had left.

Steve could understand Edwin. He nodded and walked out.

When Nicole returned to her room, she saw that Cara was still asleep. She could not bear it, but she
was a bit worried if she just left the place in this way.

Now that she was pregnant, she did not dare to take the risk.

Nicole woke Cara up.

"Mrs. Green? Are you awake? Do you want some water? Or are you hungry? I will cook the breakfast
for you now."

Cara said as she was about to get up, but Nicole stopped her.

"Stop talking and listen to me. Hurry up and pack up our things. Let us get out of here."

"Get out of here?"

Cara was a little confused.

"Did Edwin let us leave?"



"No, let's leave immediately when they are sleeping now."

Nicole did not explain much, but she got up and tidied up her belongings. When she saw Audrey's
picture on the bedside table, she paused for a moment, then she brought the picture with her.

Cara felt that she might need some sleep and could not think clearly. Why didn't she understand what
Nicole meant?

This was the Shaw's!

She still remembered how tightly guarded this place was. Back then, Samuel brought his men but failed
to take Nicole out of here, how could Nicole thought that she could escape with herself?

Was that possible?

Although Cara was puzzled, she still quickly packed up her things. Seeing that Nicole was already
waiting for her, she said embarrassedly, "Mrs. Green, I am sorry, I..."

"We can talk outside. Follow me and do not make any noise."

Nicole quietly opened the door.

There was no one in the corridor outside, and her heart was pounding.

She did not know what would happen to her if Edwin's guards stopped her. But now, all she wanted to
do was to find Audrey and see her as soon as possible.

If she went too late, she might never have the opportunity to see her mother.

Nicole brought Cara out of the room.



She cautiously turned and looked around. She even paused at the door of Edwin's room for a moment,
then knelt towards the door.

"Mrs. Green, you..."

"Shh!"

Nicole did not let Cara speak, but her eyes were already wet.

She knew that Edwin was kind to her, although he looked very strict.

He was so nice to her.

Even though it seemed like Edwin had imprisoned her, he still provided all the foods that were her
favorite.

If Edwin had not investigated her eating preferences in advance, how could he have coincidentally
known all the dishes she liked?

Edwin gave her everything she liked in her room, from the computer she needed to participate in the
competition, to her preferred color of the curtains and blankets.

He did not say anything nice, but Nicole could sense the love he had for her.

"Grandpa, I am sorry that I need to go. I will apologize to you when I get back!"

As Nicole spoke, she wanted to cry.

She kowtowed three times to Edwin, then resolutely stood up, turned around, and left.

She was afraid that she would hesitate if she stopped.



Edwin watched Nicole from the window. His tears were about to drop.

"Go and see your mother. I believe you will make your mother compromise. I just never know if I can
get your mother's forgiveness in my lifetime."

After saying that to himself, Edwin hurriedly wiped the corner of his eyes with the back of his hand. He
went back to the bed and lay down as if he had fallen asleep.

Nicole left the Shaw's with Cara. When Nicole rushed to the garage and saw Steve, she paused for a
moment. She even wanted to turn around and leave.

"Ms. Nicole."

Steve hurriedly stepped forward and gave Nicole a military salute, which shocked Nicole.

"You..."

"Ms. Nicole, my name is Steve. Mr. Shaw told me to wait for you here. He said that you are pregnant,
and the journey will be tough. It is not good. Let me take you to Bordeaux. Moreover, the journey is not
peaceful. If anything happens, Shaw will not be able to explain it to Mr. Green."

Nicole's nose immediately became sour.

"Did grandpa know all of this?"

"Mr. Shaw knew from the beginning. He said that you are as stubborn as your mother. However, he
hopes that you can see her and cheer her up. He also said that the Shaws will always welcome her. If
she is tired outside, she can always come back."

Steve's words made Nicole feel sad again.

Edwin looked very dignified, but Nicole knew that he was lonely and pitiful.



"I will bring my mother back."

Nicole looked in the direction of the Shaw's again and got into the car.

Although Cara did not know what Nicole and Steve were talking about, she was worried when she saw
how excited Nicole was.

"Mrs. Green, we should get in the car. The temperature in the early morning is low. Do not catch a
cold."

Nicole nodded.

After they got in the car, Steve drove away from the Shaw's. When they arrived at the door, Steve said,
"Ms. Nicole, please give me the pass."

Nicole felt a little guilty.

Edwin knew everything, so he knew that she took his pass, but he agreed.

This stubborn old man!

He said that Nicole was as stubborn as her mother, wouldn't it be that she inherited the personality
from him as well?

Nicole gave the pass to Steve.

Not far from the military compound, Nicole saw a familiar figure squatting on the roadside. She could
not help but shouted, "Steve, stop."

Steve thought that something had happened, so he immediately put on a brake.



"Ms. Nicole, what happened?"

"I saw an acquaintance. Wait for me."

Nicole wanted to get out of the car. Steve and Cara stopped her.

"Mrs. Green, it's not a good time now. You cannot go down."

"Ms. Nicole, we should leave."

However, Nicole was determined to get off the car. They had no choice but to let Nicole go, but they
were very nervous.

Nicole ignored them. After getting out of the car, she directly went to the person she saw and said with
some uncertainty, "Auntie?"

Martha suddenly raised her head and was slightly stunned when she saw Nicole.

"Why are you here?"

Martha's question was also Nicole's, but Nicole could guess it.

"Did you come here to see my grandpa?"

Nicole remembered Martha's background and that Edwin was still concerned about this matter. She
could not help but feel a little sad and embarrassed.

Martha was not in good health, and she was poisoned. Although Blair and Gabrielle had treated her,
the result was not very optimistic. Tim had disappeared and left Martha alone in this world. Nicole was
distressed and sad for Martha.



Martha looked at the military compound in front of her and mocked herself, "I want to see him, but he
does not necessarily want to see me. Besides, I cannot enter this place as I wish."

"Auntie, Grandpa has his reasons. You will clear the air."

"Perhaps, I do not want to ask for the settlement anymore. I am about to die, so what does it matter if
he wants to see me or not? But I am just sad and not reconciled. I did not come here for any other
reason. I just want to see him, that is it."

Martha's words were pathetic, making Nicole uncomfortable.

She could tell from Martha's words that Martha regarded Edwin as her father. Perhaps she did not
know the truth, which made it even more distressing.

"Auntie, it is windy here and the temperature will drop at night. You should go back. Where is Tim? Why
did he leave you here alone?"

As Nicole spoke, she went to grab Martha's hand. Martha's hand was so cold, and her body carried a
trace of coldness as well.

"Auntie, have you been here all night?"

"I saw Samuel bring his men. I thought he would treat you the same way he treated my mother and me
back then, so I came to see what is happening. Later, Samuel came out, but I did not see you. I heard
what those people said. I was afraid that he would make things difficult for you, but I was not able to go
in, so I could only wait here."

Martha's words made Nicole understand that she came here because she was worried about her. It
reminded Martha of those sad moments in her past, so she stayed here all night.

"Auntie, let me take you home."



Nicole held her hand, but Martha pulled it away.

"Home? Where is my home? I have no husband, no son, and no parents. It is just a house with
nothing."

Nicole instantly felt tense.

"Come with me. I am going to find my mother. You have not seen each other for so many years.
Perhaps this is the last time you meet."

Nicole's words instantly stunned Martha.

"What do you mean?"
